Today’s topic is “Start Your Success Journey”. May I quickly remind you of this
common scriptural verse of the bible, Prov 23:7…For as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.
The scriptural verse made us to know that whatsoever your mind thinketh, that surely
determines your life. Every of your steps in life is controlled by your heart,
keep renewing your mind to the path of wisdom.
What is Success?
Success according to English dictionary is the achievement of one’s aim or goal. Success is one who achieve his assumed goals. Success is not measured based on the amount you have in your bank account, neither is it measured based on the numbers of properties you have acquired. But rather living a life of purpose. Success is defining your purpose in life, your vision and mission in life, assessing yourself at every point in time and making every dream comes through. Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it flows the issues of life (Prov 4:23). Let every of your thought be on how you will be successful in life, how you can influence life, how you can make people happy and bless the generations to come.
If after you are no more, what will happen to the
next generations to come? What will people
say about you? What impact will they fill (positive or negative)? Friend, it is
high time you started your success journey today. Set up the standard you want
for your life, decide on what you want to achieve in the next 7 years of your
life. Be Prayerful, Hardworking and Determined and you will surely have them
done. Here is a template on how to start your success journey today, make a
list of all that will help you get to where you are going and put a time frame e.g.

Prayer:-Everything
needs prayer. You need to pray to your creator, he who is able to do
exceedingly, abundantly more than you can even think of. Have faith and it’s
going to work out well. Even though challenges will come your way, your creator
will take charge of all those challenges and then everything work out well for
you.
·
Hardworking:
- “Every
wish list are not always achieved”. There are millions of WISH LIST of
different kinds which are just there. Those wish list, you only wish you have
them but are not really important to you always. You have to make your success
a priority and NOT wish. You need to work hard on the necessary things that
will help you achieve your goal.
·
Determination:
- Your
determination is very important to achieving your set goals.” lay aside
all distractions and focus on your success journey. You need to be determined,
no matter what the challenges might be, you must be successful.
If you can do all this, you are on the right path of
your Success Journey. Dear friend, “the starting point is to take your future
into your hands”. You must access your current situation and be
determined where you want to be. Then start the journey, be focus, you will
soon be among the elites. Remain blessed.
