PRETEND TO BE DEAF


Before I begin, let me remind you of this famous story which is told of a group of frogs who were to climb a mountain to the top in order to enjoy good and quality life. Some of them were already at the top and were waiting for the rest.
However these frogs who happened to be on top of started making mockery of thee ones below anytime they fumble in climbing up. The subjection of these frogs by their fellow frogs to ridicule was so intense discouraged and demoralized frogs gave up in reaching the zenith of this mountain. This continued for much a long time until most frogs gave up.


One particular frog, with persistence and perseverance had almost got to the top of this mountain despite these comments and mockery by the ones on top. Finally he got there but surprisingly, they realized he was deaf.


Life is characterized by criticisms from every angle. Whatever you do in life would be subjected to criticisms no matter how intelligent, eloquent, confident, and spiritual or any excellent qualities that you have. You might be criticized constructively or destructively depending on the way the situation is. It's up to you to gear yourself towards being constructively criticized. However you should not let someone who is in his or her comfort zone to take your mind away from your dreams and aspirations. In their book, Defying all Odds Albert and Comfort Ocran made mention of the following quotes which state that, everyone has a mountain to climb, a race to run or a dream to pursue, The strongest force that can propel you to the very top of your field is a desire to reach beyond where everyone else has reached and the pursuit of that dream is burning in your heart.
These quotes clearly show that, you have somewhere to get to and it's obligatory. And in order not to skid off from the road to achieving your dreams you have to pretend to be deaf to get there. You wouldn't even hear anyone criticizing you whatsoever.

IMAGINATION

See yourself becoming great, see yourself marching into greatness, see that in your mind's eye and you can clearly see a thing in your mind before you can do it. Because that which you don't see, you cannot accomplish....These are words of that have to be subjected to rational thinking.

Most people see the word "IMAGINATION" as a normal word but come to think of it, before you can live a life of purpose and accomplishment, you need to create a room in your brain to cater for your greatness or your "to be" self. With that you get a clear view of what to do right from where you are till you get to the top. For instance, before a potter makes any creative art of pottery or anything, he needs to plan it in his mind already shaped in the brain before bringing it live to existence.

Whatever your goal, purpose in life, plans, objectives, dreams, hopes or aspirations, carefully draft it in your mind's eye before start with its project. For plan is important in all facets of our lives.

BIblical Secret to Wealth Creation I


Forget any ideas you may have about who can be successful! When we make the decision to follow God’s rules our financial success does not depend on our education, sex, race, where you were born, the wealth of your parents or how tough your life has been. None of this matters when we commit to follow God’s rules.

That God shows no favoritism is a message that is clear from the Bible.

In Romans 2:11 we read;

“With God there is no favoritism.”

And from Acts 10:34-35;

“Peter proceeded to address them in these words; “I begin to see how true it is that God shows no partiality. Rather, the man of any nation who fears God and acts uprightly is acceptable to Him.””
Yes it is true some of us will have tougher roads to travel. In the end however, the only person responsible for achieving or not achieving financial success is the one person we see in the mirror every day when we wake up in the morning and go to bed at night.
Remember, success many times comes about because people change the way they think about success. So forget those ideas about success you may have picked up along the way because of the wasted time and money you have spent trying to build a second income with nothing to show for your efforts. Forget ideas about success that try to convince you who can and who can’t be successful.
Learn a new way to financial success that is available to anyone willing to take the time to learn at and to take action!

Let's take a look at this quotation too.
From the book of Isaiah, God professed His utmost love and care for us when He said He knew us right from our mother’s womb (Isaiah 44:1-5, Jeremiah 29:11) and He has good plans for us to bring us to an expected end. From this standpoint we already know God wants us everyone to be successful and rich in life. God has promised virtually everybody with good fortunes and greatness and to enjoy the fatness of the earth He did to Job. In many parts of the Bible, God promises us wealth and success if we adhere to His teachings and warnings.

The book of Joshua in the first chapter coming down to verse 8, God urges us to read and meditate on His word and we will be prosperous and successful.
Simplifying the above quotation, God wants us to study His word continuously, think in depth, analyzing the contents of it and getting what God wants to communicate to you. Automatically, God will open closed doors for us and even provide water us in the desert places.
