What I will share today is very confrontational, it will look at us in the face, determined to bring about transformation in us. I urge you not to leave the piece halfway or read through with a predetermined stubbornness, who knows, it just may save/change your life. This may not cover everything on the topic under discourse, but hopefully, I pray that this challenge you wherever you are found wanting.  I  want us to act a simple play on the stage of our imaginations, all of us are major characters in this play, please actively engage your thinking faculty and get the best out of it. So here we go. For the last three months, you have been wanting to do something, you had planned for it, written it down, you have even informed your close friends about what you want to do, but once you are face to face with it, the rubber is about to hit the road, you will tell yourself to relax, you still have time, and you can always do it later or next time. Then you intentionally put it off, delay i

This piece revolves around thoughts or thinking patterns and how they influence the outcome of our lives. I know you may be wondering, what is the relationship between your thoughts and wheels? All I can tell you for now is, your thoughts are powerful super wheels. I first began the art and act of intentional positive thinking four years ago when I read “The battlefield of the Mind” by Joyce Meyer. She said that one of the greatest battles going on in the mind is the battle of thinking, the daily haggling with our thoughts either positive or negative. The brain tattoo I got from that book was the fact that we should give thought to our thoughts, as they largely determine the direction towards which our life goes.   In his book, “Make Today Count”. John C. Maxwell gave 12 dozens that if we desire to make each day a masterpiece, we have to daily decide, think and capitalize on them; thinking is #number 5. He added that daily, we need to decide to think creative thoughts, reflective thoug

This is one of the shortest articles I have written lately, it’s going to be apt, rapt and straight to the point. This piece may sound contradictory, but I pray for you to understand its essence. I can still remember vividly when I was growing up, among many other precautionary and cautionary words spoken by parents and guidance to their children was: “ do not waste your life”. Whether they were spoken out of love, fear or sheer parental perfunctoriness, those words stuck to my memory to date.  When I sent out the publicity of this piece, a very good friend whom we have been having conversation on life with asked me quoting the words I used earlier; ‘we all must be wasted for something”? I responded with a definite ‘yes. She asked me to shade more light. I went further to tell her that the word wasted may sound negative, but the truth is we all must be wasted for a worthy course, if not we will end up being wasted in its real sense.  So far so good, I have grown, learned and experien

So after like five months, last Friday I went to see my senior pastor friend in the morning. Throughout 2020 I had explored and utilized his library maximally. I went there to inform him and seek his counsel about a project I am about to embark upon. Well, we got talking about books and writers and other related issues. He raised a salient point that aligned with what I had in mind to share with you this week.  He said we may all be saying the same thing but there is a unique way in which we are all saying it. Let me be a bit adventurous. If you are a foodie, can you say with certainty that one restaurant or eatery has the same recipe as that of its competitors? Yes, they may all have fried rice on their menu, but can you say they all taste the same? Can two ice cream producers have the same taste of ice cream? I believe by now you get the gist of the illustration I am trying to paint. It may sound obvious but bear with me a little bit longer.  If you are alive and you are reading this
