NO ONE HAS MORE RIGHT TO THIS WORLD THAN YOU DO.
================================================

Maybe you woke up this morning, angry that you did. For you, maybe you thought it would have been better if you had died in your sleep. Well, it’s too late for those thoughts now. You are awake, and that means you survived another day.
What you do now is thank your creator, then open up your mind to divine ideas that will see you through the day.

Everyone who is a success in life has one head, with brains inside that God has given them. They all have the same 24 hours that you have. How come they achieve more than you do at the end of the day.
Refuse for today to be like one of those days. Success is your today. Reach out and grab opportunities. Hey! Guess what? The internet exists whether you are aware of it or not. Radio signals are flying over your head right now whether you are aware of this or not. If you want to equally enjoy their experience, you’ve got to get the right equipment to decode their frequency and information. Then you can enjoy it’s contents along with the others.

This is life. Everyone has equal opportunity. Only a few discover how to tap into it..
Let today be different for you. No one has more right to this world than you do. Cheers!

DEVELOP YOUR BUSINESS FIRST BEFORE BUILDING YOUR HOUSE.

Many live a life of affluence yet they live off people. On the other hand there is a proven path to get to the top, and only a few ever find it. Here is the secret. "DEVELOP YOUR BUSINESS FIRST BEFORE BUILDING YOUR HOUSE" Proverbs 24:27. 

House, here is and all inclusive term. Many want to do the opposite. They want to build their houses first. So they go for the best cars, expensive clothes etc, They even move into an expensive accommodation, and yet do not possess the ability to sustain these assets. In a short while they lose the ability to manage the things they've acquired. Hence the term, FROM GRACE TO GRASS.

Learn wisdom and live. Let your business build your house. When you develop your business first, you are stabilizing your foundation to carry the weight of your house.

BLIND AND DEAF - YET SHE WAS A SUCCESS IN LIFE. HOW?

A BIT ABOUT HELEN KELLER.
June 27 1880 a little gir was born. Least did she know that before she clocked 2 years she would turn bothe blind and deaf. Wait! Think for a moment. . .BLIND AND DEAF!

In 1904, at the age of 24, Keller graduated from Radcliffe, becoming the first deaf blind person to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree. . .BLIND AND DEAF!

Determined to communicate with others as conventionally as possible, Keller learned to speak, and spent much of her life giving speeches and lectures. She learned to "hear" people's speech by reading their lips with her hands—her sense of touch had become extremely supple. . .BLIND AND DEAF!

Keller went on to become a world-famous speaker and author. . .what? YES! AUTHOR.
Keller wrote a total of 12 published books and several articles. One of her earliest pieces of writing, at age 11, was The Frost King (1891). At age 22, Keller published her autobiography, The Story of My Life (1903). Keller wrote The World I Live In in 1908 giving readers an insight into how she felt about the world. Out of the Dark, a series of essays on socialism, was published in 1913.

Keller was a member of the Socialist Party and actively campaigned and wrote in support of the working class from 1909 to 1921. She supported Socialist Party candidate Eugene V. Debs in each of his campaigns for the presidency. Newspaper columnists who had praised her courage and intelligence before she expressed her socialist views now called attention to her disabilities.

On September 14, 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson awarded her the Presidential Medal of Freedom, one of the United States' two highest civilian honors. In 1965 she was elected to the National Women's Hall of Fame at the New York World's Fair.

On October 7, 2009, a bronze statue of Helen Keller was added to the National Statuary Hall Collection.

The statue represents the seminal moment in Keller's life when she understood her first word: W-A-T-E-R, as signed into her hand by teacher Anne Sullivan. The pedestal base bears a quotation in raised letters and Braille characters: "The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched, they must be felt with the heart."

After reading this, please tell me YOU CAN SUCCEED!

You are not dirt! You have value. Your future is Big.

A woman had gone to school one morning at the request of her son's teacher. The teacher told the woman all sorts of trash about her son being a retard and a good-for-nothing. She further said that child would not amount to anything in life and advised the woman to withdraw the boy from school.

The woman, held her son by the arm, and just as she was about to turn and walk away with her boy, looked the teacher in the face, squared her shoulder and said to the teacher, "MY SON HAS GOT MORE BRAINS THAN YOU'VE GOT". Then she walked out

That little boy, a retarded brain, as his teacher could assume, grew up to be WALT DISNEY.

No matter how much the world gives up on you, you can still end up a success, if you only BELIEVE IN YOURSELF.

MR FAILURE.

MR FAILURE!

When you hear the word failure what often comes to mind?

On one occasion a young journalist challenged Thomas Edison saying to him, "Mr. Edison, why do you keep trying to make light by using electricity when you have failed so many times? Don't you know that gas lights are with us to stay?"

To this Edison replied, "Young man, don't you realize that I have not failed but have successfully discovered six thousand ways that won't work!" this was how many times he had failed in his experiment as at the time.

On October 21, 1879, after thirteen months of repeated failures, Edison finally succeeded in finding a filament that would work.

After going through two spools of cotton, he eventually perfected a strand only to break it while trying to place it in a glass tube. He refused to give up and persevered with this idea for two more days and nights without sleep. Finally he succeeded in placing a carbonized thread into a vacuum-sealed bulb! Eureka! It worked.

Edison failed to refine the light bulb so many times it took him 10,000 attempts to perfect. However rather than accepting failure 9,999 times he is quoted as answering questions on his failures as rather: ‘I have not failed. I have just found 9,999 ways that do not work’.

One very inspirational story is that of Thomas Edison. He had problems in school, and he was sent home after only three months. He experimented on his own, and he started working at only twelve. Early in life, he became nearly deaf after an accident. He went to New York at age 22 with only one dollar to his name. Edison went broke trying to create a cheap but reliable incandescent light bulb. Some estimate it took over 10,000 attempts. Things were so bad that he couldn’t even pay his employees. The rest, though, is history, and in 1879 he produced a bulb created with an improved vacuum. In December 1914, a factory of his was burned down, causing $7,000,000 in damage. Edison’s response was, “There’s value in disaster. All our mistakes are burned up. Thank God, we can start anew.” According to the story, this gave him opportunity to deliver a new and improved phonograph. Whether that is true or not, it did enable him to synthesize materials that were of short supply because of the war and improve the efficiency of his factory.

Failure can be a chance to learn what not to do, or it can be a chance to start totally over. The important thing is to not give up.

Perseverance pays.

The story behind McDonalds Fastfood.


In 1954, a fifty-two-year-old milk-shake machine salesman saw a hamburger stand in San Bernardino, California, which belonged to two brothers, Richard and Maurice McDonalds. And envisioned a massive new industry: fast food.


The McDonald brothers' restaurant was unlike any Ray had ever seen. In contrast to the popular drive-in restaurants of the time, it was self-service, had no indoor seating, and the menu was limited to cheeseburgers, hamburgers, fries, drinks and milk shakes, all of which were produced in an assembly-line fashion that enabled customers to place their orders and receive their meals in less than a minute.

Kroc quickly calculated the financial rewards possible with hundreds of these restaurants across the country. But when he approached the McDonalds with the idea, they told him they weren't interested in doing it themselves. So Kroc offered to do it for them. The brothers agreed, and gave Kroc the exclusive rights to sell the "McDonald's method".

Ray opened his first McDonald's in April 1955 in the Chicago suburb of Des Plaines. He used the meticulously clean and efficient restaurant as a showcase for selling McDonald's franchises to the rest of the country. For each franchise he sold, Ray would collect 1.9 percent of the gross sales. From that he would give the McDonalds one-half percent. 

Then Kroc met Harry Sonnenborne, a financial genius who showed Kroc how to make money-not by selling hamburgers, but by selling real estate. Under Sonnenborne's plan, Kroc set up a company that would purchase or lease the land on which all McDonald's restaurants would be located. Franchisees then paid Kroc a set monthly rental for the land or a percentage of their sales, whichever was greater. By owning the land the franchises were built on rather than just the franchises themselves, Kroc was guaranteed a profit. With his real-estate formula in place, Kroc set out to fulfill his goal-opening 1,000 McDonald's from coast to coast.

But there were problems. Kroc continually clashed with the McDonald brothers over changes he wanted to make in their original formula. Kroc became increasingly frustrated and decided he wanted control of McDonald's all to himself. So in 1961, he bought out the McDonalds for $2.7 million-cash.

Without the rights to their own name, the McDonalds were forced to rename their restaurant "The Big M". So Kroc opened a brand-new McDonald's one block away and put "The Big M" out of business.

Kroc maintained the assembly line "Speedee Service System" for hamburger preparation, which was introduced by the McDonald brothers in 1948. He standardized operations, ensuring every Big Mac would taste the same in New York or Tokyo. He set strict rules for franchisees on how the food was to be made, portion sizes, cooking methods and times, and packaging. Kroc also rejected cost-cutting measures like using soybean filler in the hamburger patties. These strict rules also were applied to customer service standards with such mandates that money be refunded to clients whose orders were not correct or to customers who had to wait more than 5 minutes for their food.

By the end of the decade, Kroc had met and surpassed his goal, with nearly 1,500 McDonald's operating worldwide.

By the 1970s, McDonald's was the largest food supplier in the country and would remain so through the next two decades. At the time of his death on January 14, 1984, a new McDonald's was opening on average every 17 hours. Ten months later, McDonald's sold its 50-billionth burger.

Dare to dream. Without a dream that thing you are doing has no life. The McDonald Brothers had a name. Ray Kroc had a dream. To them, they were selling a name and just another cooking business. To him, he was buying his future.

WHAT DO YOU SEE? It's never too late.
Moses began his ministry at 80. Ray Kroc was 52 when he discovered his dream about McDonalds. 
YOU TOO CAN DREAM AGAIN.
DON'T LOSE YOUR FUTURE.
DARE TO DREAM.

The Balanced Life

I grew up being taught by my parents as well as my teachers in school that there is something called "Balanced Diet".

Truth is, if you want to have a healthy body that grows in stability of mind and body, they were all very correct on this principle of nutrition.

God Almighty also believes in this principle.
Colosians 2:10  says "And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power".
Matthew 23:23  says "Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone."

There is something called THE BALANCED LIFE. Where you don't have too much of a particular thing nor too little of some. You can have something of everything to aid you in becoming the PERFECT MAN that you were meant to be. "For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:" (Isaiah 28:10).

What does it mean to have a balanced life? 
It means not always hanging around your friends when your spouse is alone at home.
It means closing early from work to spend time with your family.
It means having enough money in your pocket to foot your bills.
It means taking out time to read enough to improve yourself even as we are in an information age.
It means not rushing off to work without studying your bible and praying.
It means finding some time to go to church to receive instructions for your life.
It means not being lazy and sleeping at home till 10am in the morning because you have got to go to work.
It means having some love in your heart to visit an orphanage home once in a while
It means. . . 
it means. . . .

I can go on and on. The list is inexhaustible such as our recipes and menus are inexhaustible. But we have got to strike a balance in everything we do. Anything short of that, we will be living an unbalanced life, and just as the body is malnourished and deficient in certain things it needs to function perfectly, so also will we be deficient in various things, financially, emotionally, psychologically, and otherwise.

STOP! Reconsider your life. Do a rethink. Fall in line. Live a Balanced Life.

Be useful at home, at the office, to society, in church. 
THIS IS WHAT IT MEANS TO LIVE A LIFE OF VALUE.

Life Is Beautiful.

A Life Of Hope

Ecclestiastes 9:4  says "For to him that is joined to all the living there is hope: for a living dog is better than a dead lion". 

Imagine such a phrase: A LIVING DOG IS BETTER THAN A DEAD LION. In other words, that dog has more value than a ferocious lion. Why. The lion is dead,  but the dog yet lives. For the lion, life is ended, but for the dog, there is still hope.

If you are reading this page right now, know that there is yet hope for you today than even that person you've always envied and admired who is dead. The fact that you draw breath through your nostrils is proof positive that life isn't through with you yet.

Thus, like my pastor, Rev. Chris Oyakhilome would always say: "DON'T LET GOOD THINGS HAPPEN TO YOU, NEITHER LET BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO YOU. . .YOU MAKE THEM HAPPEN" In other words, you are the determinant factor of your future and destiny. Don't take what you see in life. No! You had better not just take what life serves you. You get into your own kitchen and prepare your own meal.

You were meant for the top. Archbishop Benson Idahosa would always say "THE SKY IS TOO VAST FOR TWO BIRDS TO COLLIDE" Therefore, if you are envious of another man because he is rising higher, then you have a small heart and do not deserve the place of lofty affluence. 

Therefore, enlarge your heart to accommodate your future. IT IS BIG. Dream big, value yourself,  and increase your vessel to receive in abundance what life has to offer.

Welcome to my world.
Life is Beautiful!!

Life is Beautiful!

If you didn't think Life is Beautiful, then you are on the wrong planet. RELOCATE.

The Beautiful life

Life is indeed beautiful. Many see life as boring. but on the contrary, I find it interesting. There could be challenges, but that makes it the more interesting.

I heard a story about two people who had to give a report on the true position of their glasses of water. One person said "the glass is half full". The other said "the glass is half empty". You see, both glasses were half. One had 'full' in mind; the other had 'empty' in mind. One was optimistic, the other was pessimistic. You can choose which side to belong.

ENJOY YOUR LIFE!!!

. . .Joy cometh in the morning.

Just relax! Don't let that challenging situation get to you.

The Bible says "weeping may endure but for a night, but joy cometh in the morning".

What I like about this scripture is the part ". . .joy cometh in the MORNING" Relax! Your joy is here.

The thing about people is they don't realize that 11:59am is still morning. So since they don't see what they expected to show up by 9:00am they give up. No! Hold on until your morning is over. And I bet you, it won't be before your JOY has come.

RELAX! YOU ARE STILL IN THE MORNING OF YOUR LIFE. YOUR JOY IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER.

ENJOY YOUR LIFE!

You don't have forever. So the little time you've got out of eternity, use it wisely.

You can't go on just existing. Don't just survive. You are better than an 'amoeba'.

Have you heard people who pray like this: " Oh God, we are not better than those who have died. . ."

NO! Don't talk like that. YOU ARE BETTER!

How do I know. "A LIVING DOG IS BETTER THAN A DEAD LION" (Ecclestiastes 9:4)

You are Big. Of course you have to plan for tomorrow. But forget tomorrow and the stress it hasn't yet brought. All you have is TODAY. So enjoy it to the fullest. Tomorrow will take its toll.

And when we get there, guess what? YOU WILL WIN.

Life Is All About Choices.

Whatever you meet in life is all your doing. We look people in the face and try to shift blame from one person to another, one circumstance to the other. This is fraud at its highest degree.

Nature teaches us that when we point one finger at someone, three of our fingers are pointing back at us. You must begin to take full responsibility for your actions. Until you do you haven't begun to live. All you are doing is borrowing another man's stage. When will you take up responsibility for your choices?

Stop the blame-game. It's either your parents or your spouse; your boss or even the poor devil who knows a little or nothing about your existence.

Take charge of your life and your choices. They end up making you the person you will get to become in life. And when you are making those decisions, MAKE SURE THEY ARE THE RIGHT ONES. . .because you will surely reap the consequences of those decisions.

Cheers! Remember. . .Life is Beautiful!
