THE CHAMPIONS SERIES 84, TOPIC: 26 IMPORTANT LIFE PRINCIPLES





A- Accept; accept others for who they are. 

B- Break away from everything from anything that stands against your goals and vision.

C- Create an inner cycle of friends with whom you can share your dream with, and yank away those who only see your flaws and nothing good about your vision.

D- Decision; decide to be successful and be intentional about it. ‘Decide to be something better than what you use to be and don’t change your mind along the way.’

E- Explore; explore and experiment. There are a lot of things out there that are yet to be discovered. “What you discover is what you’ll offer to the world.”

F- Forgiveness; forgiveness is key to happiness in life. There is a great difference between a man who live in hate and one who lives a life of forgiveness. 

G- Grow; in biology, growth is defined as an irreversible increase in size, for you to be relevant to your generation you must grab every opportunity of growth. Aspire to grow in every area of your life and grow positively. 

H- Hope; always hope for the best in every situation you find yourself. Hope is a powerful tool that keeps a man focus on his goal and vision in life even when the world is against him.

Hope comes alive when it is connected to the almighty God.

I- Ignore; learn to ignore things that are irrelevant to your purpose and vision. You don’t need everything to become who God wants you to be, focus instead on those things you need, things which if you don’t possess will delay you. Ignore negative things and cynical and negative people and critics of every good thing in your life.

J- Journey; the journey to a new world, don’t be so engrossed in your past that you have become irrelevant in the present. Take a break and journey to a new world where you become relevant and impactful.

K- Knowledge; knowledge is key to success in life. No matter who are you are, where you are or where you come from, without knowledge you won’t go far in life. Knowledge depletes ignorance and gives room to development and increase.

L- Love; love as if your life depends on it. Let love lead in your life. Remember the golden rule propended by Jesus Christ, which says; “love your neighbour as yourself and love the Lord your God with all your heart. Love is key to a peaceful and joyful life.

M- Manage; manage your life, your time, your resources and your relationship, don’t leave anything to chance. 

N- Notice; you’re not alone on earth others need your help. Notice the poor and needy around you and put laughter in their faces.

O- Open; open your eyes to opportunities around you, don’t live your life looking at only challenges or problems. Within every problem or challenge is hidden opportunities. Be open-minded to the possibilities scattered around you.

When you open your eyes and mind to opportunities you’ll see them around.

P- Play; never forget to have fun after a period of hard work. Success without happiness is not a success.

Q- Question; always ask questions. Never assume that you know something. The word assumption is the most basic form of knowledge.

R- Relax; refuse to allow stress, weariness and worry rule your world.

S- Share; share your talent, knowledge, potential, resources, gift and skills with others. Always remember that your talent and gifts are meant to impact lives destinies.

T- Try; try even if seems all hope is gone, or your dream is impossible to achieve. Never quit in the pursuit of your purpose or any worthy while dream. Nothing is more frustrating than looking back at a goal you could have achieved if you had not quit or what you could have become if you had not quit. “Keep trying until you get it right.”

U- Use; use your talent, resources and gift to the best of your ability. Make sure you die empty, exhaust your gifts and talents in impacting your generation. Go to the grave empty. 

V- Value; place value on people, friends, relationship and family that have supported you in one way or another. And also aspire to live a life of value and create value wherever you go.

W- Work; work hard every time to be the best in whatever you do and wherever you find yourself.

“Every sun that rises offers a second chance.”

X- X-ray; learn to look into the heart of those around you and see the good in them. Always be an encourager to the downtrodden, how can you do this? By seeing through their packaging, you know what I mean.

Y- Yield; yield to God almighty and obey His word. You must learn to yield to good advice and changes. 

Z- Zoom; zoom off to a place where sorry, past failures, disappointments and fear won’t have any effect in your life. Always envision possibilities in every situation and see a happy ending in every circumstance.

Don’t let anything interfere with your purpose, dream, vision and happiness, see beyond your limitation and live in the reality that everything will work out for your good.

#THE CHAMPIONS SERIES 72, TOPIC: I AM A WOMAN

  I Am A Woman INTRODUCTION: After birth, as we grew, we were taught to understand the implication of our gender, the consequences of making wrong actions and attributes that distinguish you from the male gender. For some of us, we raised questions, our minds wondered ‘Why is it so hard to be a woman or a girl, as the case may be?’ But other times, we uttered words like ‘Thank God I'm not a man'. So we found ourselves accepting our gender definition when the condition was favorable and appealing, and also wishing we had made another choice, if we could, as far as gender was concerned. May I remind you that once you cannot accept or appreciate the fact that you came as a woman, you would always find fault in ‘being a woman', you would never consider yourself good enough as a woman. CAN I BE ANYTHING ELSE? Let's talk about me for a moment. I am a woman (well, I would define myself better as a Lady, with respect to age and marital status). But, the list progres...

THE CHAMPIONS SERIES 75; TOPIC: BE CREATIVE

  BE CREATIVE  MAKE YOUR HANDS USEFUL.   Creativity is first a mindset and then an attitude. There is no problem we come face to face with that is new, they have all taken place and were either tackled or not. It is how you solve that same problem that determines how creative you are. " We are all capable of doing great things, but not everyone would do great things or achieve greatness." Greatness is not cheap, some persons like cheap things, they rather settle for less than the best, because they don't want stress. They rather clap for the best, than endure the rigours of becoming the best. We're worth more than what our eyes can see, but we need to work more than the crowd to become that thing which we were created to be. "Nothing good comes easy, I hope you've heard it before? You have to put both your mind and hands to work to achieve the greatness you desire if not you will wallow in hunger. Greatness won't fall on you, you will be th...

POEM TITLED: WHO ARE YOU?

  Perhaps, we are not afraid to die But of our kin vanishing when we stagger with cravings Of our voices echoing in empty homes Empty homes that once roared with thrill and glee For if we sit and think of the life a single breath holds, How shortly a name sticks in our mouths, And how very shortly it vanishes We will be still With purpose in our eyes, we roam the earth The lies we live guard against reality and true persona The alarm goes off, We jump into the streets to a place we many a time hate To an environment that gives our souls treachery colours Time is a monster When it takes, it takes everything Do you know why we write our names on things? Perchance if your answer is same as mine, We should write our names on our bodies too. Then again, we do not. Because we own ourselves? No That golden recollection of who we are is what we own Especially in a world that forgets The silence can stroll in anytime The lips that once said our names will shut their doors You see, warnings ...
