True Talk

If you make hay
While it's day
You will have a say.

Whether you're a man
Or a woman Cultivate humor,
be holy and be human.

Dear friend, C'mon
The battle between the common
And the uncommon is still on.

If you honor divinity
You must love humanity
And this mentality
will bring you prosperity.

Onward you are marching
And nothing will stop your shining
Dear, you are progressing and prospering.

(c)Ifeanyi Enoch Onuoha

Psalm 23 vs 1 by Joshua Seun

He has created us inside a garden
Feeding and protecting us
When sick
He heals our illness
And make our darkness
Shines light.

We got lost,he found us
And took us through his way
Indeed,he is the good shepherd
He has never neglected our feelings
Nor make us cry in distress.

He fills my hands
When anytime i deep it
Into my pocket
And fills my mouth with wonders
He makes our sight
See the fruitfulnes of our labours
He has not make us lack
When we keep obeying
He bliss our minds
When our foes deter us from doing his will
He strenghten us and make us bragged
At the properties we inherited from him.

The lord is my shepherd, i shall not want
Make the lord your shepherd
And enjoy the unspeakable joy of him
Which he has promised...

AS LONG: A poem by Joshua Seun

As long as we keep
Proving we are big
When there's nothing to show
The more,the more we keep our helper
Under our foot

As long as we keep
Looking at the mirror
And do not realise our real image
The more,we keep serving others
Even when we are the master

As long as we keep
Droping tears from our eyes
And couldn't know the solution
To our problems
The more,we keep dancing to the tune of sorrow
When happiness is on our side

As long as we keep
Seeing the present fortune so bright
And couldn't light up the future darkness
The more,we keep
Crying without no pity

As long as we keep
Smiling
The more,
We keep enjoying things
Around the world..

The True Measure of Success

Some people have the notion that they are not successful because they don't have a car, money or a degree and other things in life. If you are in this group mentioned, please go beyond yourself and touch someone's life positively then, your service and love will bring you true success and fulfillment. Success is truly measured according to the number of lives you have impacted. The true measure of success is not the amount of material possessions one has but the way one live his or her life and the impact it has on others. Success can truly be measured in relation to self-development, family-bond, friends and relationships, contribution to humanity's betterment, influence and goals actualized. Many people only focus on material possession when measuring or defining success; that is wrong. Few people know the true meaning and measure of success. Being wealthy or famous is not really being a success because we know many famous celebrities that have committed suicide or whose lives are not worthy of emulation. True success empowers others to achieve success. Success is and should be measured in something worthwhile than money - lasting legacy. Success is the positive sum of your daily life. Mr. T. Kilos works in a multi-national firm and desires to become the office of the manager of his department. Guess what he did? He began snubbing his colleagues and backbiting. He now used the time he should spend with his family to go out with his Managing Director for the man to like him. His wife and children complained but he gave deaf ear to their complaint saying that they were enemies of progress. As time went by, he began having problems with his colleagues and family. Kilos went on blackmailing his co-workers in other to win the MD to his side. To cut the long story short, after a year Mr. Kilos was promoted to the position of a departmental manager. Unfortunately, he got home that evening and saw his ten year old daughter making love to a guy under the staircase and he was furious. When he entered his sitting room, he saw his only son smoking marijuana. What struck him most was the divorce letter he saw in the bedroom. His wife left him. When he resumed work the next day, he found out that he has lost the friendship and team spirit that existed between him and his colleagues. Many people in the quest to achieve success have hurt their friends and loved ones and when they now got to the top they said it's lonely at the top, not knowing that they didn't do things right. Be careful of the system and strategies you use in attaining your success. Never do things that will cause you bitter experience.

Many men and women, in the quest of acquiring wealth or getting to the top of the ladder in their career have destroyed the happiness of their homes or the good relationships they had with friends. No matter the amount of money that they made in the quest or the position they attained truly, they are not successful because charity begins at home. Try to achieve a balance in all you do in life. Do not sacrifice the joy of your home for upliftment in your career rather, strike a balance and build harmony in your life. The simplest way to explain true success and its measurement is successity. Successity is the state of attainment of positive relationships, good health, eminence, wealth, influence and abundance, and using this attainments to empower people instead of disempowering them. This level of life is more than networking; it is higher life and immortality. The True measure of success is the number of life it enriches. A true success should have succession and you are not successful until your successor succeeds. The next time you measure success put into consideration whether the success empower or disempower people; if it empowers people then, it is true success. © Ifeanyi Enoch Onuoha (Higherlife Coach)

Take Charge of Your Life

People might have been responsible for your unfavorable situations, to enjoy a favorable and blissful life depends on you. Never leave your life to chances but make empowering choices that will disempower the limiting factors around you. You need an intentional and electrifying change to create your desired future. You must pay a price to enjoy a prize. Nothing is free even in Freetown. Love yourself and handle the gears of your life. Do not allow anyone drive your as he/she wishes, you must be on the drivers of your own destiny to achieve your greater future and be a person of influence in this day and age.

Surely, in life as in football, you can't go far unless you know where the goalposts are. To lead and live the life of your dream, you must arise and be in-charge of the authorship of your own destiny. Taking 100% charge of your future requires that you must be responsible for all your actions and reactions. I know you have been through a lot, regardless of how you have been through; you can rise up and take total control of your destiny. No more excuses! Discover the real you and recover all you have lost.

To be the real you, hit the mark and make the grade, you must define and make better your self-concept which is the sum total of your self-image, self-esteem and self-ideal. Some people are the second edition of another person. You can be the best you by loving yourself, finding your God-given purpose and passionately fulfill it. You can't go where you cannot see. Expand your horizon, think big and work hard and surely you will be crowned with super success. You have a life; make a success of it.

A setback is a setup for a greater comeback. What did you learn from your experiences in life? The only way to be a loser in life is by giving up hope. I advice you keep hope alive every time. Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different result is absolute madness. You must think right and do things right to be flushed with success in line with your desires. Knowing what doesn't work, moves you closer to knowing what does work. Its only when you can look failure in the eye, learn from it and rise above it, will you succeed. The popular saying goes that, "life is not a bed of roses." You can make your life a bed of roses by learning from those who went before you. Read books in areas of education, leadership, biography, self help and general to improve yourself.
