THE ACHIEVER'S EDGE

At the root of every great accomplishment, is vision. Vision in this context implies one's ability to see (in their mind's eyes) the reality of their undertaking even before the pursuit begins. 

 

However between vision and the accomplishment of such great undertaking is PURSUIT. No one ever features in a future he/she is unwilling to pursue. Until pursuit is embarked upon, every vision becomes a fairytale. 

You will agree with me that not everyone who embarks on a pursuit gets through to the end. Some drop off by the way side due to personal circumstances and others probably just discovered the demands of the pursuit are greater than what they first assumed. 

What then is the achievers edge?

Achievers behave (walk, talk and act consciously) like 'it'.

Every achiever behaves his/her set goal/dream even before achieving them. They carry themselves like it is already in full manifestation.  It is this characteristic that empowers a successful pursuit. How? 

They are already at the end (in their minds eyes), hence committing to the demands of the pursuit becomes "easy" to them. 

It is easier to pursue what we see and the only proof we see it, will show in our behaving the end. Explaining the end is no proof you see it...writing it on your dream wall is no proof...BEHAVING "IT" is the only proof that you are already in synchronization with it. 

Jesus at age 12, was behaving what he will be 18 years later "HIS FATHER'S BUSINESS".He was behaving his future for 18 solid years before he eventually became it.  Lk. 2:42, 49.

David saw his victory over Goliath, all he cared about was the benefit that comes after the victory. As far as he was concerned, Goliath was already dead. 1 Sam. 17:26-27, 30. 

Hannah haven prayed earnestly about having a child...suddenly changed her countenance (behaving the answers to her prayer even before it came).  1 Sam. 1:18

What are you pursuing? What is that goal/dream/career objective that looks mega? It's time to see yourself walking in its reality. 

Your pursuit is only as good as the quality of your behaving the end. 

Do you desire healing? Start speaking and behaving like the healed.

Do you desire Financial breakthrough? Start behaving like one who has already broken through. Those who have broken through carry a giving mentality not a receiving mentality. It's time to change. 

Do you desire a peaceful home? Let it show in how you treat your spouse and children. Treat your spouse honourably without minding how they treat you, Why? Because you are seeing them in the future state and so ignore their current short comings. Bring their faults to them in respect and bury it after that moment FOREVER. 

When God sees you, he sees you in your future. He told Abram: 

...but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father (even if his present circumstance seems contrary) of many nations (not a family, not a clan, not a district, not even one nation) have I MADE (past perfect tense) thee. Gen. 17:5 

What did Abraham do? He started entertaining people on the street...he began to see himself as a father of NOT JUST his household but nations. Gen. 18:1-8.

It's time to start behaving your set goal. YOU WILL EVENTUALLY BECOME WHAT YOU BEHAVE. Bad habits don't jump on people, it starts by behavioural patterns, which now becomes a habit and later people say that is his/her character. 

WHEN YOU CONSISTENTLY BEHAVE IT, YOU WILL BECOME IT. 

Till when next you visit this blog, STOP EXPLAINING HOW DIFFICULT...AND START BEHAVING THE REALITY OF YOUR GOAL(S).

IT IS NOT OVER

There are those who believe life is a game of chance, there are those who believe life is predestination...hence ''whatever will be will be''. I have come to say, life is a ship that you continuously steer to your choice destination but on this ship, you are the captain hence absolute responsibility falls on you.

Just as it is common to sailing, storms are natural to life more so when you have made a decision not to remain where you are or settle for less than you think you deserve. However some people have been through situations and have decided to give up on reaching their ultimate destination. I have good news for you...

IT IS NOT OVER!

God instructed a 75 year old man called Abraham ''...FROM WHERE YOU ARE...LIFT UP YOUR EYES AND DREAM, AS FAR AS YOU CAN DREAM AND COMMIT TO HOLDING THAT PICTURE, YOU WILL EXPERIENCE ALL YOU CAN IMAGINE...Gen. 13:14-15

There was a young man called Joseph, who had spent a considerable part of his youth as a slave and then a prisoner, but dared to keep dreaming FROM WHERE HE WAS...suddenly his circumstance began to align with his Dream.

Se

Do not let people's opinion about your age or circumstance affect your CAPACITY TO DREAM again. Some people are wallowing in self pity, depression, low self esteem just because they have been ridiculed and told their time was past. I tell you the truth, it is the biggest lie to subscribe to.

My message to you this morning is to GET UP and GET OUT from such negative mindsets and start to DREAM AGAIN FROM WHERE YOU ARE. I hear someone say, you do not know my story...it is the same story you have told yourself all this while that has kept you where you are. Hey! Why don't you seek a new and positive story? Why don't you choose to doubt your doubt for once? Break free from every limiting belief system. I dare you to dream again and once again I proclaim to you...

IT IS NOT OVER!

Till when next you visit this blog, START DREAMING FROM WHERE YOU ARE!

INSIDE OUT

Have you ever thought? Where does the feathers of a bird come from? Life was designed in such a way that everything we would ever see on the surface of the earth must come from within. Child birth...from within, Trees come from underneath the soil (it does not grow from the top). 

 

Every material thing seen on the earth today, first started as an idea (from within) in someone's head. Somewhere along the line we missed it, because circumstances have forced us to think on the reverse. We now want to fix things from the surface...If anything is not working , it has nothing to do with what the present circumstance suggest, it has got everything to do with the unseen origin. 

YOU DO NOT KILL A TREE BY CUTTING OFF ITS BRANCHES, YOU KILL A TREE BY UP-ROOTING ITS ROOTS.

Everything you will ever experience in life, will come from your inside...and everything you are yet to experience in life is because you are yet to conceive it from within.

Children do not come from societies. No! You birth them. Societies do not put feather on birds, they grow from within! It is time to stop playing the blame game. Giving excuses for not being where you are supposed to be. Your success or happiness is entirely up to you...I dare you to start fixing your inside, start with your negative thought life and cultivate a positive mental attitude. Remember:

EVERY THOUGHT WILL PRODUCE ITS MATERIAL EQUIVALENT IN REALITY

Start dreaming afresh, start seeing your next level. I know you are in debt, I know your case looks impossible, I understand your CV is not what you desire it to be; I put it to you, if you dwell there, it ain't going to change either. It is time to create new things. See yourself above those challenges, see yourself coming out of debt, see yourself having the best of relationship and family life, see yourself getting married, etc.

IT COST NOTHING TO IMAGINE, WHY ARE YOU NOT TAKING ADVANTAGE OF IT?

Final note: Just like every expectant mother is mindful of her unborn baby, and will do everything to guard her baby, the same way you need to guard your vision (what you conceive of your life and circumstances) jealously. There will be distractions, oh yes! there will be. Why? The state of your bank account will affect your new thoughts of wealth, the fact that you have failed six times, will challenge your new success thought life on that professional exam...but you must not give up!

Hold that positivity firm enough on your inside and before long your present circumstance will run to catch up with your inner reality.

It is AS A MAN THINKETH IN HIS HEART...not as HIS CIRCUMSTANCE/SOCIETY SUGGESTS but as HE/SHE THINKETH. 

Until when next you visit this blog, KEEP CHANGING YOUR WORLD BY BIRTHING FRESH AND POSITIVE IMAGES OF YOUR LIFE!

WINNING BY POWERFUL THOUGHTS 3

A wise man once said 

"you are not a billionaire because your account statement says so; you become a billionaire from that point in time YOU CONSCIOUSLY BEGIN TO THINK LIKE ONE"

The difference between a powerful thought pattern and all other thought patterns is the empowerment that comes with it. 

Check this out...

At 90 years old (without a child), God gave Abraham a new frame of thinking by changing his name...God said...

"Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram...but...Abraham; for a FATHER of MANY NATIONS have I MADE THEE" Gen. 17:5 KJV (Paraphrase are author's). 

At 90 years without a child...God called him a FATHER...and then established that frame by putting it in a PAST PERFECT tense...

He didn't say..."shall make","will make", "thinking of making". No!

He said.."have I MADE...MADE...MADE...MADE..thee"

A powerful thought is that frame of mind that considers the subject of the thought process as already perfected. You are not trying to become "it" you have accomplished "it" already. 

This is the difference between achievers and under achievers. The later always think about it before they start to take steps; the former say "it is done let's go bring it home". 

Do you need to start a business? Start behaving as a business owner. Your problem is not capital, neither is the devil stopping you...you are not just powerful enough thought wise. 

A group of men in Genesis 11 (v6), had a THOUGHT to build a structure that will reach the heavens...but even without laying the first block, God was sooo convinced they will succeed...and so HE did something about it...HE CAME DOWN. 

May your THOUGHTS BE POWERFUL ENOUGH to move God to help you...

You will not fail!

Good morning and Happy New Week!

CHANGE INTO SOMETHING DIFFERENT 2

Haven failed my UK Driving test four times within 12 weeks, my instructor said something as he began to prepare me for my fifth attempt; he said 

"on the day of the test, if you keep driving as a learner, you will return home as a learner but if you drive as a Licensed driver you will go home with your Full Drivers License". 

What was he asking of me...? Change...I needed to Change attitudinally into the person I wanted to become. 

Stop blaming everyone and everything around you for your current position. That is you...being the old you, playing the victim. This might not sound sweet but "the government IS NOT your problem, your employer IS NOT your problem, your pay cheque IS NOT the problem, your spouse/partner IS NOT the problem". 

The real problem is ME...yes...that's right! Stop expecting things to change when you are not willing to go through the crucible of change yourself. 

I don't care who might have hurt you in the past, you need to drop all of those anger, bitterness, resentment and hatred you have been nurturing all these years...it's a weight- DROP IT! Those whom you hold the grudge against are so free living whereas you are dying-DROP IT! 

Begin to see in you the person you aspire to become tomorrow, and start to mimic/rehearse that person today. 

Stop saying "those rich people"...excuse me, I thought you are one of them. Start saying "...We billionaire CEOs..."...yes! that's right! 

Do not let your current circumstance become your vision...NO! Make your prospect your vision from right where you are. 

Believe in what God made...God made you...and He did not make a failure!

You will not fail!

Good morning and Happy New Week!
