No Looking Back.

When God decides to destroy Sodom & Gomorrah,Lot and his family found favor in the eyes of the Lord.

BUT his wife looked back behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.(Gen 19:26)

That singular blunder costed Lot's wife life.

When Jesus was journeying on a road;

Luk 9:61-62;And another also said, "Lord, I will follow You, but let me first go and bid them farewell who are at my house."

But Jesus said to him, "No one, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God."

What if Thomas Edison listened to his attempted thousand failed tests?

Before starting it,let our reason of doing it or saying yes to something be super strong as this will give us the shock absorbers in times of failure and other set backs.

When we decide this is it now,we must stay on course till the end.

Otherwise,it could mean a restart of another life one never thought of.

Choose to fixate your eyes on what you stand for and believe in.

Nothing should shake you,for it's even more heroic to die in the course of singing the music in your heart.

And we have to be ready to make a sacrifice of letting go off what seems like we cannot do without for those are the distractors.

You feel like you can revenge on someone,no looking back.
They left you when you needed them most and all you ask yourself more questions than answers,no looking back
You feel like the world you left behind is sweet,lie,what is ahead us even more sweeter,no looking back.
 

Stay on course,no looking back!

World Alone

What if one day you find yourself alone in CBD, no people, no vehicles only buildings, what could be going on in your mind walking through the streets? 

Every time I make a mistake of trying to request for a fair treatment and we find ourselves as a group,my boss always reminds me I was interviewed alone and in any case I will be fired alone. 

You were born alone.

Rare case can only be identical or conjoined twins.

No one has a genetic make up like you. 

What works for Sherry doesn't guarantee workability for Perry. 

In the Gospel of Luke,we are told of how how two people sleeping and one will be taken the other will be left.

Two people in the field,one will be taken the other will left. 

Why then do we make decisions on popularism? 

Independence of thoughts is a critical component of defining us for it is informed by our personality and character.

You were born alone why be scared of living your life?

Why worry what everybody else will say about you?

 

How Long Can You Stand?

Joseph knew very well that if he agreed to Potiphar's demands to engage in illicit sexual affair,his life could have changed 'for the better' literally, from the look of things.

Humanly speaking,he could not have gone to jail,and he would receive other favors from Potiphar.

But he said,No.

As expected,he landed to jail.

When Shadrak, Meshek and Abedinago were supposed to bow to the King Nebuchadnezzar demands.

They refused.

Even when thrown into a den of lions,they still refused to bow.

Even though in the two scenarios they first suffered out of the choices they made.

After a while they can attest to those being the best decision they made out of the scenarios they were in.

Many times,we will find ourselves in awkward situations in life.

They will seem insurmountable but then are we not told God cannot allow us to be tempted beyond what we can overcome?

How far can you withstand criticism?

How far will your no remain to be a no.

How far will the character you've build for years remain?

How long are you going to hold onto what you believe in?

How long will you hold on to that business you are working on?

People who have remained steadfast in their character and calling are the one who make the biggest shots in life.

They are the influencers of generations.

They remain true to who they are and what they want in life and they ultimately get it.

Drink Tears,Shower With Sweat & A Firm Faith.

He felt cornered.

How could you lose your entire business empire in a day.Having worked for it for decades?

How fair is that?

Even though it did happen,he has perfectly learnt,it takes a combination of several things to actually accomplish something.

 

There is no luck when it comes to achieving anything.

Probably what many people would call luck would be an opportunity tried by someone and it turns out to yield.

Even lottery,you can't win having not tried.

And if the chances of winning were zero,nobody could have put their money in it in the first place.

 

Every Achiever knows,it takes;

Faith.

'But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt,because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind'.(James 1:6)

He must strongly believe that things are going to work out.Believe in their idea as well.

For if you have double mindedness,be warned before even starting,you won't go far.

 

Sweat.

It will take a lot of efforts to work it out.

Mental,emotional and physical efforts.

It will demand going an extra mile to work things out.

One will wear out and feel like they are taking the last breath but they still hold on.

For this is the spirit of a fighter.The spirit of achievers.

 

Tears.

It will take sacrifice.

Sacrifice of letting go things and people that cut off your head every time you raise it..

You will feel the pain of foregoing some of the sweet things you'd love to do with your time in the quest to make it happen.

Emotionally,your heart might be heavy when things will not be going as per the plan.

It might cost you relationships.

You'll ask yourself why are you even doing whatever you'll be doing to do.

But somehow you keep on keeping on.

You have to be strong even when you don't feel like.

You have to hold on even when the string is breaking.

 

Along the way others will say;

Where was God when all this was happening?

Is it worth the effort?

I resign to fate.

Those are sounds of despair and that will be the beginning of failure.

Born In Four Months!!!

Have you heard a baby being born in 4 months,well,that is miscarriage.

Warren buffet said;

You can't produce a baby in one month by getting nine women pregnant.

What!

Yeeeees,you just can't.

And how can you be 45 yrs without having been 2yrs,13yrs,20,39,..yrs?

Remember last night or is it last night but one you had thought of becoming a millionaire overnight?

And you were not asleep dreaming?

Well,maybe you had participated in lottery.

Or you are a beneficiary of Eutobond?

You should tell us more.

How else could it have happened?

Plant flowering happens in stages.

Pregnancy happens in stages.

So does;

Business growth happen in stages.

Salvation,

Life Achievements..

And everything else.

Why do we then expect things to happen overnight like an earthquake?

Even though there are things that do not have a defined time span and they vary from one individual and circumstance to the other,there is an average time for it to happen,from statistical data.

Sometimes back I had started a business,which from my calculations,I was foreseeing massive profits.

From my little research on average to get it right a first time was proving to be hard.

But I was always asking why,if I will do it as it is expected to be?

I dived in,well,ee e e,I had set fire on the rain.I made a minute blunder that costed me the entire investment. 

Time and situations have taught me to be patient with life.

Why do we want to get born again today and start ministering tomorrow?

Why do we want to fall in love today and settle in marriage tomorrow?

Why do we want to start a business today and break even tomorrow?

We have to be patient and take the stares.

One step at a time.

We have to build our stamina before we lift a heavy load.

Even though Jesus was born with all the powers it's not until the age of 30 that he started his ministry.

Lion Eating Grass!!!

The epic strategy of lions is ever amazing.

The lions perfectly know;

The power of synergy, no wonder you'll never see a lion hunting alone.

Execution strategy determines chances of winning or losing.They single out the weakest and separate it from the rest.

Despite their strength they still have enemies and a mistake can cost a life,especially the young ones.

In the jungle at times things become really rough,especially when there is drought.

The biggest question is,does a lion change it's diet to eating twigs or grasses?

In fact at such a point,I guess that is when it goes to hunt even bigger animals!

The lion is not wired to eat what other herbivorous eat.

It's just a carnivorous!

You too are wired in a certain way.

With a unique combination.

Do you know what you are wired for?

I know the idea of eating grass has never crossed the lion's mind.

It can die with grass surrounding it.

It's just not meant for grass!

You are meant for a specific flow.

Flow that you will thrive with and yield to the maximum.

Flow which oozes from within without struggle.When polished up & perfected,it comes out uniquely in you.It defines you. 

Lionel Messi,a mathematics teacher.

Something is wrong with the sentence above,right?

It's just not his flow.

And even probably he can teacher,may be soccer figures.

And I know mostly this guy has other talents,but then,the one he connects instintically with is soccer.

Back to our lion,why struggle eating grass and it's system won't digest any way?

It won't be of any nutritional value.

Why are you struggling with something which is not your flow?

What are you designed for?

Why stoop to low to levels that will have negative effects on you?

At times the jungle of life is hard.

It scares.

But,that does not warrant you to go to levels you know deep inside,it's not just you!

One Only? If Only It Can Be Replayed..

It takes a singular action,word,person,decision,event...for life to just turn around.

It could be that one business deal that is going to change your wealth fortune.

It could be that one time to be elected in a leadership post that is going to change the country for the better.

It could be that innovation that is going to be revolutionary.

It took one being,Jesus Christ to bring Christianity to be.

Buddha to make Buddhism happen.

Mohammad to make Islam happen.

Confucius to bring Confucianism

Think of Facebook,it took Zuckerberg,

Disneyland,it took Walter Disney.

Apple and Steve Jobs.

The failed Nyayo 1.

And yes,it took other stake holders to make it happen,but then,I am sure without them it could not have happened.

It's worth noting it took quite a chunk of efforts,time and sacrifice to convince followers and/or customers.

On the other hand too,it only takes one to bring down what you've built for ages.

Remember what Delilah did to Solomon?

It beats me flat,how such a wise man fell.How on earth?!But it happened.

How about the many ladies who get pregnant with their first sexual encounters.Being from a humble background,stressed,they drop off school and/or gets married.

How about this banker who forgot to log off his machine for a few minutes,and a malicious colleague used it to conduct fraud.The two eventually lose their job.Did the former deserve it?

How about losing a bread winner in a tragic accident courtesy of drunk-driving?

Every decision should be well thought of,especially the ones we have control over,for a singular event can turn around fortunes. 

Hold on to that which you are working on and you believe in.Fight through and keep positioning oneself,for an event can happen and it becomes the singular game changer.

Run away from that which you are doing or just about to do which when put on the light,it will bring you down like Solomon.
