Go for Wealth, Not Money

Go for wealth, not just making money. You can be making money and not be wealthy, but you cannot be wealthy and not have money.

Finding Fulfilment

Fulfilment is found only in fitting into the slot where you belong. Although it may not be financially rewarding at the initial stage, the financial gains would certainly come the more you grow and develop in that niche.

You only need to be patient. You need to look at the big picture. Most people, especially the youth, consider the immediate picture and jump ships so frequently. Thus, they subject themselves to a life of frustration and unsettlement. You can only find peace and fulfilment by filling your own hole (in your career, business, marriage, ministry and so on) or answering your own calling.

God's Resources Are in the Possession of His Children

When God needs to do anything, the resources to complete it are usually in the possession of His children. It's just for them to release it in faith and trust His replenishing abilities. And He doesn’t owe anyone.

To Stand Out, Focus on the Big Picture

To stand out at work, do not get stuck in the rut of merely doing things or the usual rounds. Focus on the big picture and work with that consciousness in mind.

How to Avoid Giving Terrible Advice

When you advise someone with your own gain in mind, you will most likely give them terrible advice. The best advisers are those who offer counsel beneficial mainly, if not only, to their advisee.

The Significant Others

Most human failures are catalysed by the failings of the significant others. If you observe that someone is drifting away from the ideal, then it is time to intensify your compassion rather than resort to criticism. People struggling need friendship, not alienation; they need engagement, not isolation.

What Is Your Forté

If your forte is in analysing the failures of others rather than pre-empting them, your intelligence is not premium and there is no difference between you and the gossip next door. Even the Good Book says, only those who save a soul from destruction are wise.
