Conquer yourself

It is not the Mountain that we conquer but ourselves. To be a able to achieve any success in life, we must first of all  conquer our self.  The external mountain that we see are only a reflection of the real mountain within. In our attempt to conquer them, we learn the art and therefore go on to conquer our real enemy - ourselves.

We need to conquer our fears, our laziness, Our beliefs, Our laziness, Our learned helplessness, The scarcity mind set we adopt. We need to tame our body and programme it to synchronise with the efficiency and effectiveness of our spirit. A great man once said “we are created to live, not to prepare to live“.  But our bodies must learn to live and they must learn of our spirits by adopting and adjusting to it in all ramification. Until this happens the individual will not experience true happiness.

What we tell our body is the thing that shuts it down.  Many people are very happy to say “this is too hard“ or “I give up“ they deny that they did not follow through with the process.  When you set a goal for yourself and pursue it with discipline, you are under way to conquering yourself. The real world challenges are not the issue, we are the issue. We only use them as our vehicle to self actualisation.

Many say they want to achieve a goal, they are not serious. They are lying to themselves. If they really wanted to, they will do it. But because they didn't really mean it, their body also shut down. Their fear is stronger than their resolution and their commitments not enough.

One thing we must be an expert of is our self. Its the only tool we have to conquer the world. You can not be fighting the world at the same time fighting you. No, you must conquer one first. After conqering yourself by overcoming your personal idiosyncrasies, it will be easy to take on the world.  The secret is; use the things (in the world) that challenges you to conquer yourself, and use your(conquered)self to conquer the world.

These taughts are not really new to you, are they? Surely not, but now it echoes again. What are you going to do? Crack the code? Yeah! You should DO that.

Core idea from Stephen & Robert.

When it is Time to Say Goodbye.

Image
1 Min. Read Micheal lost his job 3 months ago and with his job, his little Bus. He was an employee of a Marketing and Distribution Company based in Lagos. He never saw it coming so he never planned for a plan B. As it came suddenly on him like a hurricane wind, Mich lost his hope, faith and hence was discouraged. He was confused now started to live from hand to mount. The universe did not tell him what was waiting at the corner so he was deflated. What Mich did not know was that it was time to say goodbye. Mich still had his trainings because he was a very talented, dedicated, intelligent young man. But he never looked beyond to know that what he needed to begin a life was being handed to him and that he was only a trainee while at The Locust Grove Mean Co. He has all he needs to start a new life but never reckoned with that fact and the light came crashing at this time. Do you ever feel like you're stuck in a rut and the universe is against you? Like nothing seems to go right, and...

Let the sleeping Dog lie...

Image
Isn't that why we suffer a lot, the society is bad,  we know things are not going the right way but we do not want to create more problems so let the sleeping dog lie. Isn't that why our problems grow and they overwhelm us and undermine us because we dare not ask questions, we just let the seeping dog lie. So who will solve the problem? while waiting for somebody to do it, no body does it. It slips our finger, grows so big and out of hand. We let the dog lie. Every body knows it is wrong, everybody knows they are lying, everybody knows we are loosing, we just let the sleeping dog lie So who will do it, who will lead the battle, who will bail the cat. Its quite ironic peolpe need solutions to their problems but see simple, gentle attempt to ask questions as an affront, a confrontation, a show of insubordination to authority. People just want to control, they want to be in charge and do not care who is hurt by what they do. And because we value relationship rather tha...

Everything happen in a Relationship

Image
Relationship is a mine field. It is pregnant with unlimited possibilities. Relationship is like  a farmland where everything you plant can grow and nurture. When it matures it brings forth fruits and maintain the farmer for a long time. Many people wants to get results from associates directly without going through the process of relationship. Such transactions does not succeed or at best do not last because they do not go through the right channels You see, people are more than what you just see on the outside.  That person you are looking at is more than what you see. He has values, he has ethics, he has a belief system and he has unique features that differentiates him from every other person on the street. He desire to be accepted but more importantly he desires to be learned, understood and followed according to accepted principles. He does not want to be badged or controlled. And he is correct,  God made him so.  Do not think you can just have him give y...
