NEVER LET THE DEFINITION OF SOMEONE ELSE'S SUCCESS DETERMINE YOUR FUTURE - PART 2
In part one we saw what success is not and how people wrongly define their success. You can see that here
In continuation, today we are going to look at ways to define and follow your own success rather than letting others do that for you or living someone else life.
Your definition of success could seem insignificant and could be the tiniest thing ever, but what is of most importance is that it gives you joy and a sense of fulfillment.
To achieve success, we must first set ou…

THERE IS BEAUTY IN YOUR SCARS
We all have scars either within us or on our outer bodies, emotionally or physically that can plague us for years or for life if we permit it.
For some, it's more of emotional scars from mistakes made, wrong decisions made or regrets made in the past. There are those who even feel ugly because they have scars on them.

PRAISE UNTIL SOMETHING HAPPENS (PUSH)
It was a privilege to be part of the 5th edition of Praise Until Something Happens (PUSH) where I spoke on praise.
It is easy to praise God when everything seems to be going well as planned, but once the ships go down and things begin to go haywire, the last thing that comes to mind is to praise God. There is also this set of people who only praise God when they are in need, making God a checkbook father. Once their heart's desires are granted, they forget God, not even…
IT'S NOT WHAT YOU GET BUT WHAT YOU BECOME
In the world we live in, so many people are more concerned about what they want to get, the point they want to get to, the height or pinnacle in career they want to get to, hitting financial target/salary increase, owning properties, becoming famous in life, becoming spouses, achieving a goal or living a dream life yet do not want to go through the process.

Some already started the year on a rough note which tends to breed anxiety in them. Some sit down everyday in self pity counting the days and taking note of dates in the calendar, worrying about ho…
LIFE FLOWS FROM THE INSIDE OUT
"Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life." Proverbs 4:23 (NLT)
"Above everything else guard your heart, because from it flow the springs of life." (ISV)
The heart is the wellspring of life from where things flow. It is the source and the beginning of where the issues of life emanate from. Just as spring is the source where water flows, so is the heart where everything we think of, imagine and act on flow from. If the spri…
HOW FAR HAVE YOU COME?
The year 2019 is fast coming to an end. For some people, every goal set has been achieved, some have parts of their goals achieved while for others, it seems like nothing has been achieved and then comes the fear of what next and how far they still have to go.
