Fear, Worry & Faith..


Life is tough,  ruthless and a bully. This is a valid fact. For every dream or desire that you have and want fulfilled, you must first be willing and ready to fight. There is no other way. Desire is not enough. Most of us are wishful thinkers and so naive to expect that life will deliver our expectations without any struggle or contention. What an illusion!

But in the midst of this, one of the greatest discoveries, you can make in life is to find out that you can do what you were afraid you couldn't do. 

The fear to do it, is faith in reverse. The worst liars in the world are your own fears. Worry is the traitor in our camp that dampens our power and weakens our aim. Worry is faith in the negative, trust in the unpleasant assurance of disaster and belief in defeat. 

Worry is a magnet that attracts negative conditions. Faith is a more powerful force that creates positive circumstances. Worry is wasting today's time to clutter up tomorrow's opportunities with yesterday's troubles. 

Almost 99% of the things that we worry about don't happen. Fear is a poor chisel to carve out your tomorrow's. Faith is daring to do something regardless of the consequence. Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men. Do not pray for tasks equal to your power. Pray for power equal to your tasks. 

Shoot for the moon, even if you miss it, you will land among stars. You have to think big to be big. The impossible is what nobody can do until someone does. Progress always involve risk. You can't steal second base if your foot is still on first. 

Do you look at the horizon and see an oppurtunity or do you look into the distance and fear a problem? He who does not dare would not get his share. When you dare for nothing, you should hope for nothing. I dare you to live by faith!

BEING YOU...

I t's been said that the biggest enemy of 'great' is 'good'. The biggest enemy most of us face is 'ourselves'. The nagging voice says: be like him, you're not worthy; do what he does, follow where others are going. When you're trying to be like someone else, the best you can ever be is "second best" . Why compare yourself with others? No one in the entire world can do a better job of being you than you. We all do it or have done it at some point in our lives; we compare ourselves to others and gauge where we are based on what we observe them to be doing. When you stop comparing yourself to others, you tend to produce more results in your life, you are able to improve yourself, and get a better vision for your life . The easiest thing to be in the world is YOU . The most difficult thing to be is what other people want you to be. Don't let them put you in that position. Until you make peace with who you are, you will never be cont...

Be Yourself

Be an original individual and not a photocopy. However, you may try to change your personality, but you can't. A congolese proverb says, " Wood may remain ten years in the water, but it will never become a crocodile". Beware! Many spend their entire lives trying to change the way they were made. "To be nobody but yourself" says E.E. Cummings " but in a world which is doing its best day and night, to make everybody else - means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight and never stop fighting." The greatest tragedy than can strike an individual is to fail to know himself.  Syndney Harris said "Ninety percent of the world's woe comes from people not knowing themselves, their abilities, their frailties and their real virtues". Whatever you are, be a good one.  You are number one; everyone in the world is your number two. Wart Disney said, "the more you are like yourself, the less you are like anyone els...

Character..

Character is the aggregate sum total of one's distinctive moral and mental qualities. Every man has in himself a continent of undiscovered character, however it is not a natural endowment we are born with.  It is something that each individual forms of itself, with a continuous process in every thought, every action, every deed, every feeling which contributes to the education  faculty of our attitudes and habits.  Character is just like cloud of smoke, it can never be concealed or hidden because it will find its way out. Character is a magnet that attracts the right people to you. It is the real foundation of all worth while success.  "Thoughts leads on purposes, purposes go forth in action, action from habits, habits decides character, and character defines our destiny" (Tryon Edwards). Would your reputation recognize your character if they met in the dark? Would the boy you were be proud of the man you are?
