Down But Not Out

Many challenges have come our ways; we have faced a lot of trials and tribulations. We have passed through periods and situations when it seemed as if things would fall apart and the whole world was about falling on us. Life was never designed for the timid and chicken hearted. Someone very dear to my heart once said to me, “challenges are breakfast of champions”, to make it in life- to make impact, you have to be ready to dare a lot of things and the earlier you accept this fact, the better for you. I am yet to see a man that exists without his story, we all have stories to tell and the earlier we stop thinking we are the ones with the most serious story, the better for us and the earlier we get to our place of glory. The holy book (Bible) says, there’s no challenge/trial that happens to you (us) that is uncommon to men, but in the midst of it, God will show forth and provide a way of escape…

1 Cor.1013. My Dear friend and reader, whatever it is you have experienced or may be experiencing is just meant to make you better. It is in fact a necessary meal for you to give you a balanced diet and make you have a more healthy life or better still, “they are necessary meals for a healthy life (Victory)”. No matter the situation you are presently, don’t quit- you are just too close to the trophy than to give up. You’ve not come this far just for the fun of it, you came all the way for the prize, so why give up now. Another favorite quote of mine says; “Blessed is the man that endures trials, for at the end, he’ll receive the crown which God has promised those who love Him” (James 1:12) You’ve endured this far to receive the King’s crown, please, my beloved friend, just endure more; the crown is within reach.
Don’t disappoint the King’s effort. He has spent a lot to make this crown of gold- just for you (custom-made). You did not fall for you not to rise, but for you to become wiser (stronger and more determined), you’ve got what it takes friend. I believe in you, your generation believes in you, your loved ones believe in you, the King believes in you! We celebrated you birth ‘cos we believed a solution was birth. We see that solution- yes, we see it, it’s so obvious can’t you just see it? A fallen man is not a dead man, rise up friend, pick up your baton and continue, just a little more effort and the race will be over. You’ve got what it takes to make it and I already see you there. Congratulations friend…thanks!!!

My Definition of VALUES

The values of a man determine to a large extent what he does and how he thinks.
 
 The value you place on somebody or something determines your disposition towards it (how you handle it). The dictionary defines values as, beliefs of a person or social group in which they have an emotional investment (either for or against something). what your values are determines what you value -I value things such as; Character, Integrity, Self development, Life, Honesty, knowledge and Love to mention just a few, and the way I relate with and to these things is as a result of the worth I have placed on them.
The value I place on the people in my life is responsible for how I relate with them, my principle about inter-personal relationship states that ”treat people well to the best of your ability because you can never tell where and when you’ll meet again ” My personal definition of values is an acronym which I’ll share with you in a while and I implore you to work with it closely because I believe it will help you a great deal. My dear reader life is too short that you don’t care how you live ( your life)…don’t ever think you’ll have time on your side. Do all your best to make the best use of your time. Dear reader, your life is so precious that someone had to give His ALL for you. My definition of values is given as follows:

Vision: this is the picture of the future you see about yourself which has been revealed to you by a supernatural power GOD); and is applicable to every area of your life i.e. spiritual, finance, relationship, career etc.

Attitude is your disposition towards your pictured future. That is, what you’re thinking or how you are acting towards your vision which includes people regardless of the age, societal status and unexpected occurrences (challenges) etc. someone defines attitude as “the Aroma of your heart”.

Legacy: your legacy is what speaks for you when you are no more either because you have moved on or dead. Another word for legacy is will- a legal document declaring a person's wishes regarding the disposal of their property when they die. How rich is will, what is it worth, what will be said about that vision of yours (positive or negative), how long will your legacy live after you are no more and how WELL are you living? Stop thinking you are too young to start building a legacy- time has never being any one’s friend.

Usefulness: never continue to think you exist for yourself alone. No man was created to live in isolation. Different people have contributed to get you to where you are today in other words, they have been useful to you and courtesy demands that you do same to them and others. That vision, gift, talent, influence, wealth etc. is meant to be a platform for you to reach out and be of use to people-they need you.

Empowerment: my dear friend, you have been empowered to empower others; your vision should have a way of making (impacting) others better. Besides that, you should also keep making yourself better as each day passes by- find time to know more that you did yesterday, acquire more knowledge and improve your worth. Empower yourself- learn something, get better each day, read (good) books, attend seminars etc.

Structure(s): Dear friend, your life is a structure and must be treated as such, the quality of materials been used to build it matters a lot. Just as you’d want the best for your residential building so you should for your life. The kind of materials you allow to be used- the people, books, films etc. that you expose yourself to matter a whole lot. How well are these things contributing to the quality of your life. If you don’t have a mentor or teacher, get one very soon- someone you respect and can learn from.
My friends, it is high-time we begin to live our lives in such a way that it becomes good example to someone, somehow and somewhere. Let’s build the right values hence, making our society a better place. The above principles are applicable to any area of life and with the right attitude, good results are inevitable. They have worked and are still working for me and I believe they will work for you. All the best! Vision + Attitude + Legacy + Usefulness + Empowerment +Structures = VALUES
