MY TOP 50 THOUGHTS ON FACEBOOK

Listed below are my top 50 quotes most ‘liked’ on Facebook between April and July. Please go through them and drop a comment on your personal favorite among them all. To your Success!!!

1. You can’t reach the destination of a journey you have not started. Success is a journey, and the commencement of this journey is a valid VISION from God

2. Discretion is not just knowing the principles, it is knowing how and when to apply them

3. Choosing what you need the most, over what you want now is what I call responsibility

4. Destitute people live less than who they really are, not because they lack potentials but because they have wandered from their place. Don’t let this happen to you... Locate your place and you will enjoy the grace. Prov27;8

5. Nothing makes a man unstoppable like the truth (God's Word) in him... 2Cor 3;8

6. It takes a moment to catch a vision, but it takes a lifetime to fulfill it... "...though it tarries, wait for it; because it will surely come..." Hbk 2;3

7. Dreams come true when the dreamer aligns him/herself with the truth of God's Word.

8. Wisdom is no wisdom except it finds it origin in God

9. No matter how shut-up a door may be, it's still a door and it's bound to be opened. So knock, and keep knocking... and it shall be opened unto you

10. Security is the overcrowded Island of mediocres... to number among the great, you must go for a ride in the storm. The good news is that just any dummy with courage can do it

11. Everybody wants to be Somebody. But achievers are smarter.... they know exactly what that ‘somebody’ would be.

12. Fear is what you see when you take your eyes off God's promises... Josh 1:5,6,9

13. Courage is the internal judgment that your tomorrow is more important than today's fear

14. Be not deceived, God is not mocked; for whatsoever a man sows, that shall he reap. Gal 6;7. How you end this week is determined by how you start it. Do you have a plan?

15. Everyone is a genius at something; but those who really move the world are those who recognize their chances and take them

16. With knowledge you can make a living, but with wisdom you make a life

17. Being on the right track is a not a passport to prominence. Dozens of visionaries get run over everyday just by sitting on the tracks. To stand out, you must run so fast that you take off in the air.

18. Those who lack new eyes never see new lands. And for the one who chooses to see differently, the best place to start is where he stands.

19. Never miss the opportunity to have productive conversations with strangers. Sometimes the biggest ideas we get don't come from friends and 'experts' but from those who being ignorant of 'facts' help you to see the big picture

20. The poorest is not the one who owns the least but the one who needs the most.

21. The greatest battle we all have to fight is not against the stinging joblessness, business bankruptcies, illnesses, rejections, marital crises and disappointments; it is against that monstrous voice in our heads constantly saying, 'You can't make it!'. To win you must constantly respond back saying, "Watch, as I prove to you that you were wrong!"

22. Vacancy!!! You have been shortlisted for a one-minute interview with Obama to fill the post of the Presidential adviser on African matters... What would you tell him? My point: You don’t wait for opportunities to come before you prepare for them. Great people are those who are found prepared when opportunities show up. So how prepared are you?

23. Extraordinary people don't just do their best, they constantly exceed their best. when your best doesn't get the job done, what to do is to increase your capacity to exceed your current best... get a mentor, read a book, take a course, adjust your approach, redefine your values etc. ... it takes a desperate approach to achieve the extraordinary

24. "I am poor because there is no one to help me"... that's the language of a Failure. A failure is a bad investment to everyone... Destroy the failure mentality by taking responsibility for your life..... create an action plan, and then start something with what you have. Soon people and resources will gravitate towards you.

25. Most people overvalue what they're not and then undervalue what they are.... You'll have to do the exact opposite to succeed.

26. The lowest level in life is the level of hopelessness.... because hopeless people don't think. And if you don't think, you never find a way out. You may be down, beaten and battered by life's challenges but never give up your hope

27. In 1969, Apollo11 had her coordinates adjusted every five minutes in order to land on the moon. I don't believe in impossible dreams, only challenging ones. As long as you are willing to adjust your plan along the way, success is inevitable. Great week

28. In Albert Einstein's words, 'The value of a college education is not the learning of many facts but the training of the mind to think'. Whether you are a professional, businessman, civil servant, clergyman, or janitor, your life will always rise and fall with your daily capacity to think

29. 'Busyness' doesn't make a great business. Ted Turner only work fifteen weeks every year but still get more done than most Lagos workaholics. If your business or career is not working, you should take a break or a vacation if you can, to see the big picture of your life dreams and make necessary changes. Believe me, it works

30. Procrastination is not the thief of time; vision without reinforcements is. As long as you don’t have enough reasons to pursue a vision, no amount of interest in it will drive you to work. So my question for you is: why do you want to pursue that dream? Your answers determine your future...

31. Whether you believe you can or you can't, you're right!

32. Some are BORN GREAT; others were born TO BE GREAT. Either way, we all have equal chances at greatness. Stop pushing the responsibility of your greatness to God. He's already given you the ticket you need: Your choice. Deut 30:19

33. The three wise men of the scriptures had proofs for their wisdom; they gave of the abundance of their treasures to the baby Christ. My point: true wisdom is in doing as much as in knowing. And until the results begin to show, men will doubt whatever wisdom you say you have. Do you know a lot already? Good. Start producing results by practicing what you know. That is true wisdom. Great week!

34. Place the wise in a desert; he will build a city. Place the fool in a city; he'll make it his cemetery. All Nigerians have their fair share of challenges but what each one of us make of it is a function of the wisdom we carry. Go after wisdom; it will guarantee your abundance in the midst of scarcity

35. Do what you love and you'll be successful; make others feel loved and you'll be happy... my little philosophy of life.

36. Love is the labour room for happiness. You can start giving your life away today through simple acts of kindness that only very few remember to offer. That to me, is the good life. Great week!

37. He lacks wisdom, who feels he always has to say something, He is wiser who speaks only when he has something to say... what class do you belong?

38. You may not have everything perfect all the time, but you can always choose to look beyond the imperfections. At least, that is all it costs me to be happy...

39. Wisdom is doing the right things, quality is doing things right, and excellence is living the previous two as a lifestyle. Trans-generational success is impossible without a combination of all three.

40. You can't enjoy the smoothest road with sands in your shoes. Throw out the 'dirty and sandy' past and enjoy the life Jesus Christ bought for you with his precious blood. Life in Christ is good, and I'm determined to enjoy it to the very best.

41. 'Yes' and 'No' are the best two words we can learn to say. They encourage quality decisions and banish procrastinations. Say 'yes' to your dream and to the tasks that lead you there. Great weekend!

42. What's the big deal if no one sees the star in you today? The star is 'in' you. And you need to express it loudly enough before the world can see it. Vision is what turns the 'trash' in us into treasures ...Start living by a true vision today.

43. Success is a journey; those who make it a destination end up in frustration

44. The power to prosper is nothing but the power to OBEY God no matter how hard it seems. Find out what He wants you to do, do it and you are sure to advance in destiny.

45. A millionaire was asked, 'What was your greatest motivation for success?' He answered, 'hunger. I was so desperate to survive my homelessness and hunger that I didn't have any other choice but to succeed'. Sometimes, necessity would be your strongest motivation. So use it!

46. Many people spend their whole life trying to figure out what they should have been, done or had. Don't let this happen to you. Follow your heart and don't be afraid of mistakes- they are only 'learning tools' to your El Dorado.

47. It's not how you start but how you finish. No matter how lowly placed you are right now, if you commit yourself to constant and never-ending improvement you will end up a champion. The key phrases are: commitment to change, taking responsibility, proper time management and most importantly putting God first in everything you do. Success!

48. The best way to start your day is to end it first. Think about your plans for the day, write them down and they'll become easy to achieve. Great day!

49. Ask and it shall be given to you. Seek and you will find; knock and it shall be opened to you. For everyone that asks receives... the clearer your perception of what you want, the easier it will come into your life.

50. Success is what you attract by the person you become especially by taking full responsibility for your life. Friends, let’s make it count
