FOLLOW THE LEADER.

A wise man once said that to be a good leader, you must first be a good follower. How true! 

I have listened to a lot of speeches by some great men and women, and there is one unique thing about all of them; they will tell you that they served in humility and they started small. One of the richest black man in the world, Aliko Dangote from Nigeria said, "I built a conglomerate and emerged the richest black man in the world on 2008, but it didn't happen overnight. It took me 30 years to get to where I am today. Youths of today aspire to be like me but they want to achieve it overnight. It's not going to work. To build a successful business, you must start small and dream big." 

Starting small could mean that you have a master who is very wealthy and you are learning skills from him- the best thing to do is to keep your head down, serve and learn. That is the only way you will grow. 

Learn to follow the leader, by so doing, you are learning how to lead the follower. You cannot achieve success overnight, you must contribute your own quota. Humility is the fastest and easiest way to learn how to be a good leader. Never contend with your master, you will never win. 

More piece on "follow the leader" coming soon...

Waiting is painful. The pain is excruciating. Waiting makes you look stupid as though na only you waka come. But, keep feeding your faith during the painful season of waiting! Romans 10:17. Something I've learnt; seasons of waiting are not seasons of inactivity. A lot is going on! GOD is working; orchestrating events. Happy New Month. 😇

WORD FOR THE DAY

If someone talks rudely to a person, it is important to remain calm and not react with hostility. Instead, it is helpful to try to understand why the person is behaving that way and address the situation calmly and respectfully.  If the behavior continues to be disrespectful or abusive, it may be necessary to set boundaries or seek help from a trusted authority figure or support system.

GUARD YOUR HEART AND SPACE!

The enemy has one goal; for you to change the way you're talking. The tongue is a creative force!  A few years ago, I literally was magneting good things, especially people of like minds, money, material things. Everyday favour was my lifestyle. I had a stubborn faith, it annoyed a lot of people, because they felt I was not being realistic, yet everyday brought even better favours. I got a job I didn't apply for;  a very good one!  B ut you see, when your faith is not being sharpened, even though you think you're standing, you'll wake up one day and realise you've hit the rock bottom! Guard your heart and space with all diligence! No matter who the person is, if they are not speaking your faith language, do not make room for them to feel comfortable with their faithless opinions and ideologies. If the church you attend doesn't stir your faith or belief, LEAVE!  Protect your faith journey by living daily on GODS' word and NEVER budge! THE WORD OF GOD WORKS! #
