Bright Day

As I woke up this morning, the song that came to my mind was one of the songs we sang during my primary school days: 'the day is bright, it's bright and clear, O happy day, the day of joy, the day is bright, it's bright and clear, O happy day of joy'. Guess you remember it right? Does it make any sense today being the first working day of the year? I believe it does. The day is bright, full of opportunities to advance and move forward to achieving your goals and targets. The day is clear- a brand new day to set the pace, to kick start all you had highlighted for the year 2016, and clear enough to begin to write the success story of this year in your career, academics, businesses, relationships, calling etc.
It's a happy day because this is the first monday in 2016 and you are privileged to see it. Happy day because it's starting a new dawn in your life and endeavours. Thirdly, it's just must be a beautiful one for you. And finally it's your day of joy. I believe everyone will have a good day and even if you're not privileged to have one, it's still a day of joy. No one have access to your joy bank, no one can steal your joy unless you give the permit. So, you have all the joy you can have and circumstances notwithstanding, you can always choose to be joyful because when you are joyful you are lifeful.
Go out with happiness, go out joyfully because today is bright and clear and because today, like every other day of the year, you'll be writing and working out your success story.
It's indeed a bright day.

Favour Demystified

W elcome to another Wednesday’s insight series.  I believe you are set to get another insight today so, let’s dive in. Dictionary defines favour as an act of kindness done or granted out of goodwill. It is also to show preferential treatment to someone. Favour is derived from the same root word as Grace, CHARIS. And this makes favour to be as powerful as grace. But while grace is totally unmerited and unearned, favour can be deserved, gained and entreated. There are two dimensions of favour; favour with God and favour with man. The greatest dimension is to be in favour with God because when you have that, favour with man comes cheaply.  You don’t beg for man’s favour when you are in favour with God, God himself will cause men to favour you-He will cause you to find favour with people regardless of how high and mighty they are.  Another truth about favour is that it does not have prejudice for colour, race, gender or location. You’re a candidate for favour as long...

GETTING IT RIGHT Pt 3; Just before you Jump

Today, I will be concluding on the series Getting it Right. I hope you've been blessed reading and ruminating on it. Remember, it's not the reader that is blessed but the doer. Don't just read for reading sake, share it with others and do what is required of you. Let's consider the last temptation the devil gave and see how we are copying that too. 3. The devil said, if you are the Son of God jump down for the scripture says he shall give his angels charge over thee and in their hand they shall bear thee up, lest at anytime thou dash thy foot against a stone. But Jesus said, thou shalt not tempt the Lord your God. For some of us that think the devil does not know the scripture, you must have realised how wrong you're from that verse. I don't think it's right to compare ourselves with the devil but on a serious note how will the devil know the scripture and you the child of God, the owner of the Words doesn't know it not to talk of quoting it ver...

Career Fulfilment

Many of us work an average of eight (8) hours a day five (5) days a week between the age of 18 to 65. The amazing fact about this is that we spend a total of 100,000 hours of our lifetime working. Can you then imagine doing something that doesn’t give you fulfilment? One of the keys to career fulfilment therefore is to enjoy what you're doing. It's burdensome to be doing what you don't like or created to do. It's totally frustrating and time wasting. And that's the reason many people are not productive in their work. When I said productive, I'm not talking about acquiring material possessions because even some that engage doing what they don't enjoy doing have been able to acquire cars, built houses and have the 'toys of life'. Productivity here is mind creativity; a sense of fulfilment, a sense of joy that comes from doing what you are wired or created to do.  This is the difference between those working to make a living and those working to make ...
