•LET THEM SCARE YOU

[Are Your Goals, Dreams Or Aspirations, The Common And Regular Ones?]

Now that's a question for you. You should answer that!

Does your dreams scare you? Mine does! In fact, it's more scary than the most horror movies Twenty First Century Fox ever produce in all of Hollywood's records, because mine is more realistic.

But, I'll go after it anyways!

Just like that "hungry" lion charges towards the terrific herd of buffaloes, targets and singles out that one who goes astray  for that hot pursuit; so do I and so should you!

I'm not of the masses, I'm first class!

We cannot afford to live the normal human life; where every one's just getting by! Some people wake up everyday and just merely coexist as "living bodies" no inspiration, aspirations, dreams of success or any pursuit for purpose. Are you going to be that way?

This reminds me of a certain young man i met at the airport on one very memorable journey as freshman. It was holiday, we were going from PH to LOS, Nigeria. We didn't really talk much but I could tell with the little introduction and very brief questions I threw at him; he was from "the wrong school"!

The trip was a short one- 45 minutes I'd say, I was reading a book; "Recreating Your World"

While we were seated; I asked him one simple question.

"Do you have dreams; what are they?"

We kept gazing at each others eyeballs for nearly 60 seconds before he finally opened his mouth to talk. When he was done talking, with a kind smile; I said to him: "small dreams! The world is much more bigger than that."

You see, your dreams ought to be bigger than the world. This young man, his dreams were like something of this sort; study "harrrrd" for good grades, so he could get a well paying good job, build/buy a dream home, acquire Rolls Royce Phantom, get married, two or more kids and then retire early at age 50.

As nice as it may seem to do all of that; I'm not saying its wrong but you see, its "kindergarten"! That's junior. If you live your life, and possess stuffs enough for only yourself and family: then you're "Junior". Grow up!

What are your dreams? It matters what and who inspires you at every point in your life.

You get to that point when you tell your friends or whoever cares to listen; of your dreams and they become sarcastic or uncomfortable. Why? It is because they can't just reason them out. They cannot imagine how you'll make it through and arrive at the top, despite your backgrounds, geographical location, country of residence, "religion", sociopolitical factors and/or qualifications. The next one will amaze you!

•Refuse To Give Up.

[Recognize Deity. Take Advantage Of The Miracle Element! Stick To The Plan.]

This is the most important part of it all.

When there's no change as at yet! When the light hoped for at the other side of your tunnel don't seem to be yet visible and it's like you're losing visual; if  thoughts of negativism and doubt tries to set in: Do not allow, take them or succumb to their mirage!.

At this point, you are advised and expected to write down your visions or dreams if you haven't done so already. Write them boldly on a special book or on your smart mobile devices; where they can easily be accessed. This is extremely, vital because you need to run with it through consistent meditation and affirmations.

["Habakkuk 2:2 And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. (KJV)"]

Did you see that?! Isn't this amazing that even God is interested in our visions, dreams and aspirations; more than we could ever imagine? I'm happy about this and so should you!

I tell you, if you'd only recognize and put God first, take advantage of the miracle Element and not give up but stick to the plan through consistent meditation and affirmations; you'll realize your dreams.

The whole world suddenly becomes too small for you.

Most great leaders of countries, captains of industries, great inventors, successful entrepreneurs and worlds business tycoons; they all know and practice these things, just that only a few give God the credits openly.

You'll be amazed!

Everyday, you wake up, look yourself in the mirror and say these words out loud like you mean them:

•"I'm a success!"

•"I was born for greatness!"

•"I can achieve all my dreams"!

•"I can do all things"!

•"The whole world is mine"!

•"I'm born of God"!

You see...

...["The One with whom we're dealing; He's the owner of the whole universe. The Holy Ghost is not here to beg anybody. He's here in the Name of the Seed of Abraham-(Jesus). Remember, God almighty willed the whole world to Abraham and to his Seed.

The Bible says that the Seed of Abraham is Christ and if you belong to Christ, you are Abraham's seed and therefore, heirs according to the promise (Galatians 3:29).

That's why I just can't accept poverty. Nobody is going to hand poverty over to me. I refuse to be described as poor because I'm not. I'm Abraham's seed. I know who I am. I'm not an ordinary person; I'm an heir of God and a joint-heir with Christ! (Romans 8:17)."

Until you recognize and put God first, taking advantage of the miracle Element and not giving up but sticking to the plan through consistent meditation and affirmations; the impossible will elude you!

•BECOME THE BEST OF YOU!

[Renew Your Mind; Change And/Or Upgrade Your Thinking Processes, Add More Value To Your Personality]

"It is said that; your attitude, determines your altitude!"

How true this is. I remember what my "Well Logs And Core Data" lecturer; [Engineer]. Prince Ogbonnaya used to tell us:

"It's one thing to be at the top but it takes character and attitude to remain on top"

You've got to be the best of you. Refuse to accept frivolities and anything that's mundane. Be excellent!

["It’s possible for someone to have so much ability or be gifted with a unique skill, yet when such a skill is required, that individual isn’t chosen because he doesn’t have the right character. If you would spend time to invest in yourself and develop an excellent attitude, sooner than later, the improvements in your personality would become evident to all. Make up your mind to develop the right mental structure and add value to yourself.

By “mental structure,” I’m referring to the attitudes you cultivate over time that control your actions and form your character. In Genesis 49, you'll see how Reuben’s character and his ability clashed. He was the beginning of his father’s strength and the excellence of his wisdom. Jacob had invested so much in him, yet he was unstable in his ways and couldn’t excel in life!

Reuben had the opportunity to be great and very influential, but his character stopped him from excelling. Don’t be this way! Be the one who is dependable, such that when there’s something important to be done—whether at home, at school or in church—you’re always one of the first to be considered and called upon. Inside you are hidden treasures; you came into this world with a unique personality, gifts, and abilities. Therefore, discover your place and be the best of you for the benefit of your world!"] ...read more from "Rhapsody Of Realities TeeVo."
