Potential generally refers to a currently
unrealized ability. Potential is latent qualities or abilities
that may be developed and could lead to future success or usefulness. We all have hidden gifts and talents that sometime are only brought
to the fore under pressure. In other times we need guidance to bring out the
best of gifts and talents in us. Look at yourself closely and ask people who
are sincere to you what potential they see in you. You would be surprised at
what they tell you.
Purpose is a person's sense of resolve or determination. The
reason for which something is done or created or the very reason for which
something exists. Everyone has a purpose for his very existence. If we can find
that purpose it would help us pursue our goals in a highly effective manner. Purpose
is a driver. Purpose spurs us forward and enables us to conquer new realms.
Work hard at discovering your purpose and you will go places.
Passion is
a very strong feeling about a person or thing. Passion is an
intense emotion, a compelling enthusiasm or desire for something. Passion is a
strong feeling of enthusiasm or excitement for something or about doing
something. : Passion is also a strong feeling (such as anger) that can cause us
to act in a dangerous or undesirable way. We ought to channel our passion
towards positive things. You need passion to succeed at what you want to do. If
you are not passionate about it, on a bad day you might lose faith and give up.
Prayer is solemn requests for help or expression of thanks
addressed to God. Praying helps us to focus on our goals and commit them unto
God so he can help us achieve them. Sometimes
the tasks we undertake are unbearable and when that happens faith that
our God is backing us in our positive endeavours helps push us forward.
Frequent prayer is a powerful tool for those people striving to higher heights.
Plans are documents that are meant to take us from where we
are to where we want to be. Everyone should work from a plan and have a strategic
plan for everything in life, so that there can be a reference and we can keep
going to back to the document when ever we get stuck or alter it when it is no
longer realistic. Plans ought to be flexible, and short as well as long term.
Short term plans marked with mile stones enable us to plot our progress and do
frequent evaluation to make sure that we are on the right path.
People are important
to our very existence. No man is an Island. No body can succeed alone that is
why it’s strange when we hear people refer to others as “Self made men”, there
are no such beings. Everyone was helped by someone at one time or the other. So
it’s important for us to let people who will advance our plans into our lives so
as to help us. If we are hiring people for a cause or a business its good to
hire experts and people who are smarter or more brilliant than us. Anyone who
is afraid to work with people smarter than them will find it difficult to
succeed in life.
Patience is a virtue. Everything we desire will not come to
our side immediately. Sometimes we have to wait. We have to wait for certain
things that are beyond our control to take place or be revealed to us. Sometimes
we have done all we know how to do and we need time to consolidate our
activity. Time is an asset and it is the only resource that all human beings
are given in equal measure on a daily basis. We all have 24 hours. The real
question is what do we do with these hours? Using our time constructively is a
challenge to every living person. Let us not get carried away with distractions
of life. Life is too short to waste on insignificant things. This does not mean
that we cannot relax or have fun. But lets make sure that we try to accomplish
all that is to be done.
