The WISDOM Dynamics
It's a great day and it is in the path of Wisdom to be grateful to God for every bit of it.
I feel today is the greatest day in the world and I am prepared to live it as such- to the fullest.
Today I have chosen to write about wisdom. It is not an exhaustive writing on wisdom as it were but it will be insightful in its own way. The subject of wisdom is a peculiar one and should be carefully treated. To understand a thing we need to look carefully at its definition.
Wisdom can be defined as the right and correct application of knowledge.
Wisdom is the principal factor on which every sound judgement is based.
Wisdom is also defined as the manifestation of long term thinking.
Wisdom is therefore a topic that needs to be studied from time to time.
This post is inspired by a beautiful song rendered by the choir- 'God is Working'. I sang and also danced to this song while in church on Sunday.
I believe in God! I have no regrets about it; it's my faith. This is the substance that makes us conquer fate- Our Faith in God.
No matter how bold our goals; or how high the odds; God is always at work.
When we keep doing our part; we should also believe God is working behind the scenes, though we might not see him.
God is working He's still working in our lives, though we often don't know just how; but He is still working in our lives. #GodisAble
You are closer to your goals than you can ever imagine, if you keep believing and working towards them.
I have pursued mine enemies, and overtaken them.... they are fallen under my feet.
– Psalm 18:37-38
If you've been standing around wringing your hands and worrying about what the devil is doing, it's time you made a switch. It's time you put that devil under your feet!
Jesus has already given you all the power and authority you need to do it. He's given you the keys of the kingdom. He's promised you that whatever you declare locked on earth is locked in heaven and whatever you declare unlocked on earth is unlocked in the heavenlies (Matthew 16:19). That means you can speak the Word and bind wicked spirits. You can speak the Word and loose the angelic forces of God to work in your behalf.
What's more, you've been given the power of attorney that enables you to use the mighty Name of Jesus. A Name that's above every other name. A Name which will cause every knee to bow—in heaven, in earth, and under the earth (Philippians 2:9-10)!
So, don't waste time worrying about the devil. Take authority over him. Bind the evil spirits that try to destroy your home, your church and your nation. Loose God's Word in the earth and enforce it with the Name of Jesus.
You hold the keys. Learn to use them and before long the devil will be wringing his hands worrying about you!

I have had one of my mentors shared with me a small book with a short, life-changing story. I will share this book with as many people as possible, but here, I will like to share an interesting story from it first.
INTRODUCTION
In the last five years, I have read over 20,000 pages of books on success, leadership, financial intelligence, change management etc. Of all, one book has had the most impact on me. The book has literally transformed me from who I was to who I am now. The book is the smallest of all the books. it has just 9 pages. As a way of giving back, I am willing to give out 300 copies of book for FREE. "Life is a gift, and it offers each of us the privilege, opportunity and responsibility to give something back by becoming more".
- Anthony Robbins
I know, from experience that some people will not read this book, but I sincerely hope you will be among the very few who would read the book and take massive action. The truth is, its only about 10% of the population of the world becomes successful financially, that is simply because they are the very few that not only know the secret of success, but they are also the only ones that decided to take acton despite all odds.
“Nothing is more powerful than a person who knows his destiny and has chosen now as the time to pursue it.”
- Jim Stoval .
Part 1
The Parable Of The Pipeline by Burke Hedges
Once upon a time long, long ago, two ambitious young cousins named Pablo and Bruno lived side by side in a small Italian village. The young men were best buddies, and big dreamers. They would talk endlessly about how someday, someway, they would become the richest men in the village. They were both bright and hard working. All they needed was an opportunity. One day that opportunity arrived. The village decided to hire two men to carry water from a nearby river to a cistern in the town square. The job went to Pablo and Bruno. Each man grabbed two buckets and headed to the river. By the end of the day, they had filled the town cistern to the brim. The village elder paid them one penny for each bucket of water. "This is our dream come true! "shouted Bruno. "I can't believe our good fortune." But Pablo wasn't so sure. His back ached and his hands were blistered from carrying the heavy buckets. He dreaded getting up and going to work the next morning. He vowed to think of a better way to get the water from the river to the village.
Pablo The Pipeline Man: "Bruno, I have a plan," Pablo said the next morning as they grabbed their buckets and headed for the river. "Instead of lugging buckets back and forth for pennies a day, let's build a pipeline from the village to the river." Bruno stopped dead in his tracks. "A pipeline! Whoever heard of such a thing?" Bruno shouted. "We've got a great job, Pablo. I can carry 100 buckets a day. At a penny a bucket that's a dollar a day! I'm rich!. By the end of the week, I can buy a new pair of shoes. By the end of the month a cow. By the end of six months I can buy a new hut. We have the best job in town. We have
weekends off and two weeks paid vacation every year. We're set for life! Get out of here with your pipeline." But Pablo was not easily discouraged. He patiently explained the pipeline plan to his best friend. Pablo would work part of the day carrying buckets, and part of the day and weekends building his pipeline. He knew it would be hard work digging a ditch in the rocky soil. Because he was paid by the bucket he knew his income would drop. He also knew it might take a year or two before his pipeline would pay off. But Pablo believed in his dream and he went to work. Bruno and the rest of the villagers began mocking Pablo, calling him "Pablo The Pipeline Man." Bruno, who was earning almost twice the money as Pablo, flaunted his new purchases. He bought a donkey outfitted with a new leather saddle, which he kept parked outside his new two-story hut. He bought flashy clothes and fancy meals at the inn. The villagers called him Mr. Bruno, and they cheered when he bought rounds at the tavern and laughed loudly at his jokes.
Small Actions Equal Big Results: While Bruno lay in his hammock on evenings and weekends, Pablo kept digging his pipeline. The first few months Pablo didn't have much to show for his efforts. The work was hard, even harder than Bruno's because Pablo was working evenings and weekends too. But Pablo kept reminding himself that tomorrow’s dreams are built on todays sacrifices. Day by day he dug, inch by inch. Inches turned into one foot............. then ten feet............ then 20............. then 100. "Short-term pain equals long-term gain," he reminded himself as he stumbled into his hut after another exhausting day's work. "In time my reward will exceed my efforts," he thought. "Keep your eyes on the prize," he kept thinking as he drifted off to sleep with the sounds of laughter from the village tavern in the background.
The Tables Are Turned: Days turned into months. One day Pablo realized his pipeline was half-way finished, which meant he only had to walk half as far to fill his buckets! Pablo used the extra time to work on his pipeline. During his rest breaks, Pablo watched his old friend Bruno lug buckets. Bruno's shoulders were more stooped than ever. He was hunched in pain, his steps slowed by the daily grind. Bruno was angry and sullen, resenting the fact that he was doomed to carry buckets, day in, day out, for the rest of his life. He began to spend less time in his hammock and more time in the tavern. When the tavern's patrons saw Bruno coming they'd whisper, "Here comes Bruno the Bucket Man, " and they giggle when the town drunk mimicked Bruno's stooped posture and shuffling gait. Bruno didn't buy rounds or tell jokes anymore, preferring to sit alone in a dark corner surrounded by empty bottles. Finally Pablo's big day arrived, his pipeline was complete! The villagers crowded around as the water gushed from the pipeline into the village cistern! Now that the village had a steady supply of fresh water, people from around the countryside moved into the village and the village prospered. Once the pipeline was complete, Pablo didn't have to carry buckets anymore. The water flowed whether he worked or not. It flowed while he ate. It flowed while he slept. It flowed on weekends while he played. The more the water flowed into the village, the more money flowed into Pablo's pockets! Pablo the Pipeline Man became known as Pablo the Miracle Maker. But Pablo understood what he did wasn't a miracle. It was merely the first stage of a big, big dream. You see, Pablo had bigger plans. Pablo planned on building pipelines all over the world!.
Recruiting His Friend To Help: The pipeline drove "Bruno The Bucket Man" out of business, and it pained Pablo to see his old friend begging for drinks at the tavern. So, Pablo arranged a meeting with his old friend. "Bruno, I've come here to ask you for your help." Bruno straightened his stooped shoulders, and his dark eyes narrowed to a squint. "Don't mock me," Bruno hissed. "I haven't come here to gloat," said Pablo. "I've come here to offer you a great business opportunity. It took me more than two years Before my first pipeline was complete. But I've learned a lot during those two years. I know what tools to use now, and where to dig. I know where to lay the pipe. I kept notes as I went along so now I have a system that will allow me to build another pipeline in less time........... then another........... then another. I could build a pipeline a year by myself, but what I plan on doing is teach you how to build a pipeline, then have you teach others and have them teach others. "Just think, we could make a small percentage of every gallon of water that goes through those pipelines." Bruno finally saw the big picture. They shook hands and hugged like old friends.
Pipeline Dreams In A Bucket-Carrying World: Years passed. Their world pipelines were pumping millions of dollars into their bank accounts. Sometimes on their trips through the countryside, Pablo and Bruno would pass villagers from other villages carrying buckets. The friends would pull over and tell them their story and offer to help them build a pipeline. But sadly, most bucket carriers would hastily dismiss the notion. "I don't have the time." "My friend told me he knew a friend who's uncle's best friend tried to build a pipeline and failed." "Only the ones who get in early make money on a pipeline." "I've carried buckets my whole life, I'll stick to what I know." "I know people who lost money in a pipeline scam." Both men resigned themselves to the fact they lived in a world with a bucket-carrying mentality............. and only a very small percentage of people would ever see the vision.
End Of Story
This is a wonderful story in financial intelligence. I hope you enjoyed it, but how does it apply to your situation?
Who are you and what are you building? Are you a bucket carrier or a pipeline builder? I will continue this series in the next post.

LESSONS FROM 2014.
The past year-2014 was a wonderful year, I am grateful to God for; as I shared in a previous article 'A year in Review', however there were some lessons I took away from the year which i think needs sharing.
1. Never stop working on your goals daily. This point is one of the secrets of achieving an goals or resolutions set for the year. Most times we set big goals and refuse to break them into actionable simple daily plans or action points, and the entire goal becomes an avalanche as year rolls bye an example of this was my reading plan for 2014.I had planned to read 100 books for the year but by failing in my daily-weekly and in turn monthly target, I couldn't make the challenge and stopped at over 32 books at the year end. Act daily on your goals. Do something little.
2. Preparation is vital. He who really fails to plan has truly planned to fail. Always prepare ahead. Never be caught unawares. Lack of preparation costs you much more than the time and effort it would have taken you to prepare and plan before final execution. This lesson personally cost me hundreds of dollars in the last year.
3. Gratitude is a great Attitude: Nothing can be too much to be written or said in praise of gratitude. Last year on this blog I engaged in a couple of 30 day writing challenge, but none is as great as the 30 days of gratitude challenge, it has not left me the same and I can't but write a full post on lessons learnt in subsequent posts. Gratitude is the source of unlimited power and wealth as well as other good things are attracted to power.
4. Track it! To be consistent a good tracking and accountability system is the secret of consistency. Every goal I set in different spheres were only much more easily attained when regularly tracked and when an accountability system were put in place. The accountability system might be a software available to a group of users or much more a Mentor or a mastermind group.
5. Never ever ever give up!. In the last year I learnt the value of persistence and never ever giving up. No matter what do not give up. You might change your approach or revisit your goals with flexibility but never ever give up.
6. God is Able.: God is the sole constant in the equation of Life. He is able to do all that He says he would do, He is unlimited in power and His divine abilities find full expression through us.
These, among other things are part of lessons I learnt in 2014.
Kindly share your feedback in the comment section.
It's a great day! I read an article from Robin Sharma in one of his recent news letters and i thought it best to share it.
Enjoy!
20 New Rules for The New Year
By Robin Sharma
#1 bestselling author of The Leader Who Had No Title
You are born into genius, but have you resigned yourself to mediocrity?
I’m on fire to help you make 2015 the year you breathe reality into your most beautiful dreams. Let us accept nothing less.
I suggest we start our work together this year with a simple idea: if you run the rules most people run, you’ll get the results most people receive.
To make a right-angle turn so that 2015 is 100x better than 2014, I encourage you to set some new rules to govern your life by. Here are 20 to consider and then implement over January:
#1. Generosity beats scarcity in every situation.
#2. If you’re the most successful person in every room, find a new room.
#3. If you’re not up early, you’re sleeping too late.
#4. Epic performance has more to do with saying no than saying yes.
#5. Commit to becoming the undisputed heavyweight champion of your craft.
#6. Get fit so you can serve more people.
#7. Impact is a better measure of success than income.
#8. A failure only becomes a failure if you let it become a failure.
#9. Your job is to see the greatness in people who have yet to own the greatness within themselves.
#10. Don’t wait to be inspired to start your dream. Start your dream to grow inspired.
#11. What the victim calls luck, the hero calls relentlessness.
#12. Be polite. Be on time. Be optimistic.
#13. Make each fresh day of this new year a little better than yesterday. Daily optimizations will soon lead to exponential improvements.
#14. Make time to rest. Sleep is a secret weapon of true A-Players.
#15. To double your income, triple your investment in your professional education and on your personal development.
#16. Trust your instinct more than what society says is reasonable and possible.
#17. Go directly to where your fear lives because on the other side of that is where your power lies.
#18. Genius is less about genetics and more about obsessive amounts of practice.
#19. Never be too busy to be kind.
#20. Remember that life’s just too short to play small with your potential this New Year.
Oh–and please remember, the way you start 2015 profoundly influences the way you’ll end it so definitely kick it into HIGH gear right now.

It's a great day! I wish every one wonderful 'Strong End' and a happy Sunday! I like to make a come back to my daily blogging with this spirituality post by Kenneth Copeland. Please enjoy and be blessed!
Get Yourself Together
Can two walk together, except they be agreed?
– Amos 3:3
When it comes to faith, a lot of believers feel like they have one foot nailed to the ground. No matter how hard they try, they just can't seem to make any progress.
If you'll watch them, you can see why. They literally haven't "gotten themselves together." One minute they'll be telling you, "Oh yes, amen, I believe the Word," and the next minute they'll be spouting unbelief like it's going out of style. "I know God says He'll prosper us, but I'll tell you what, my business is doing so badly, it's about to give me ulcers. I can't sleep at night for worrying."
Dig a little deeper and you may find out that they've pulled their actions out of line with the Word as well. "Well, you understand, brother, I can't possibly tithe with my income like it is. I'd go under!"
Faith just won't work for a person like that.
You see, you're a triune being. You are a spirit. You have a soul, which consists of your mind, will and emotions. And you live in a body. Each of those areas has a specific role to play in your faith walk. You have to get all three in agreement before you can go anywhere at all!
Start by feeding your spirit on the Word of God. Just like the body produces physical strength when you nourish it with food, the spirit produces spiritual strength when you nourish it with the Word. That spiritual strength is called faith. Develop that faith, and instead of your spirit being dominated by the other two areas, it will be the one in charge.
Next, bring your soul in line. Set your mind on "things above." Meditate on the Word until your thoughts begin to agree with it. Keep your attention on it until even your emotions yield.
Finally, bring your body in line. Once you truly get your spirit and soul established on the Word, that won't be hard. The body is a follower, not a leader. It will do whatever you train it to do. Begin teaching your body to act on the truth you've planted in your mind and spirit, and it will follow right along.
Don't try to walk in faith with your foot nailed to the ground. Get yourself together! Bring your spirit, soul and body in harmony—and the Word will take you as far as you want to go.
It's a great day! Another opportunity to be grateful for life and all the wonders it entails.
Today is yours; own it
Now is your time seize it.
Your best years are yet ahead but in this very day lies the key to accessing it.
You are a champion never succumb to FEAR. Fear and failure are two inseparable twins; they walk side by side.Many have been stopped by the duo on their tracks to SUCCESS; but this won't be you! You are unstoppable! Now is your time to shine!
You are upward bound. Your bones cannot be broken by the words of the critics, the mockers, doubters and even naysayers stand no chance with you.
You are an icon not a worm; you are an Eagle and not a grasshopper. You will rise on the LIGHT of the morning; You will soar on the wings of LOVE!
Love in in its purest form is the greatest POWER in the world, it trumps Fear any day and replaces it with the energetic substance called FAITH. Faith is the source of all things. It is the very energy that links all lives to the Source.
You are a limit breaker; you have the powers of the world to come and you will take off on the wings of Love and soar to great attitudes where you will shine with great intensity! An intensity that lightens up every darkness of doubts and inspires faith in the world.
This is your story; your reality and who you have become. It's God's Master plan for you!
