Never giving up by Akonu

Never resign yourself to defeat. Never surrender to failure. The moment you lose faith, the instant you give up, is the moment you diminish your true worth and erode your self-esteem. Faith, that unwavering inner conviction that a higher power is with you, is the bedrock of resilience. Life will inevitably throw punches: business failures, job losses, financial woes, indebtedness, setbacks, disappointments, even bankruptcy. These trials, though painful, do not diminish your inherent value. They are not signs of abandonment; they are opportunities for growth. Don't waste precious energy fighting battles you cannot win. Instead, redirect that energy towards transforming your mindset. Change your perspective, and you change your reality. Remember, no storm lasts forever. This too shall pass. Endure, and you will emerge stronger. The universe, and everything within it, is in constant motion. Change is the only constant. Embrace it, harness it, and make it work for you. Don't wait f...

My Balance by Akonu.O. Emmanuel

  My Balance : A Call to Character, Courage, and Calculated Creativity to succeed   Stop the squabbles over trivialities. Cease the petty power plays that stifle progress and silence valuable contributions. True growth, both personal and collective, demands more. It demands a shift from ego-driven posturing to a collaborative pursuit of excellence. Versatility is the hallmark of the adaptable. Like the chameleon, blending seamlessly into its surroundings for both protection and sustenance, we must cultivate the ability to navigate diverse systems and cultures without losing sight of our objectives. Rigidity is a death knell in a world of constant change. Be willing to shed ineffective methods and embrace new approaches. Innovation isn't just about dreaming; it's about doing, adapting, and refining until success is achieved. Courage isn't the absence of fear; it's the mastery of it. It's the grit to face difficulty and danger head-on, transforming fear from a paralyz...

Good Example by OEA

 Being a good example is truly about being a good influence to others in character, honesty, integrity,faithfulness, diligence, commitment, loyalty, trustworthiness and humility. We are not perfect and acknowledging our mistakes, learning from them, and striving for continuous improvement bring about progress. Ultimately, being a good example is about living a life of purpose and meaning, guided by strong values and a genuine desire to positively impact our circle and  the world at large . An example in the Holy book of the Bible is  Samuel’s who stood before the people of Israel asking them whose ox have I taken ,or cheated or oppressed.  This is a powerful testament to a life lived with unwavering integrity and accountability.  Prompting a critical self-reflection: Are we known for our good behavior and honest practices, whether at home or in a professional setting? Can we be trusted with financial matters, or are we susceptible to financial infidelity?  ...

Useless Pride by O.E.A

  Useless Pride Useless pride, a burden upon the heart, casts a chilling shadow over human connection. Its icy grip blinds individuals to their own flaws and shortcomings, hindering their growth and improvement Arrogance and stubbornness, twin traits of pride, lead to the belittlement of those perceived as different or inferior To break free from this destructive cycle, we must wash away the bitterness of pride with the cleansing waters of humility Humility, a beacon of understanding, illuminates the weaknesses and strengths within each of us. Compassion, a bridge across the chasm of division, connects us to the world Only in an environment nurtured by respect and love can true growth flourish The richness of a family, a microcosm of society, is not measured by material wealth but by the intangible bonds of unconditional love, shared experiences and values, open communication, respect, quality time together, and a supportive environment that encourages education and growth Let us s...

Purpose by OEA

  What do we do with this life given to us   Feeling stuck in a reality and unsure of what to do next  Because you figure among the 7 plus billion people in the world every actions and choices we make impact us and everyone in it  Just like sand casting upon which we can create our own unique masterpiece Sometimes finding purpose is about finding the problem or solution to a thing  Our purpose might be hidden in those little singing we do or those fun brushstrokes we do when paintings  It could be chess playing,coding or an interest we develop Having integrity guilds us through life  Listening to our instincts as we explore uncertainty  The line underneath our passion,talents and values comes our true meaning to life  Every heartbeat a gentle reminder of the life we are given  So always be grateful ☺️  Copyright @Akonu O Emmanuel
