You may discover your purpose, but if you take it for granted, you will abuse yourself.
~ Israelmore Ayivor
Cowardice is when you hide away from your real self, and wear another self in pretense. Be yourself; that is bravery. If yourself is not better for you to be, change yourself and live in that changed self!
The glory of the carpenter is the tables and chairs he manufactures, the glory of God is you and me because He manufactured us!
Flawless and faultless outcomes are not products of lawless and careless people. No lawless person is a genuine innovator. To your skillfulness, add good manners; to your willfulness, add carefulness!
Leaders are not worried about what they can’t do, they know themselves very well and focus on what they can do. Think this way if you are willing to lead!
It’s ridiculous to repeat costly mistakes because you believe there is always a next chance. Mistakes may flow, but you have all it takes to close the canals they used!
Abortion of potentials is a massacre of purpose. You don’t get the fruit because you killed the seeds!
The real form of abuse is not a physical torture, it’s mismanagement of purpose by misunderstanding God!
Excuses will not take you far, they will take you out. The success of your many excuses doesn’t mean you will run away from the work. It means the work will run away from you!
If you haven’t found yourself yet, it’s difficult to help someone to discover himself. False leaders make more false leaders!
It’s unfair to see managers buying brand new cars for themselves when the salaries of their workers still remain unpaid! Good leaders are not selfish thinkers!
God’s word is the way to God himself. If you miss the word of God, you will miss God. Jesus is the word!
Leaders are not worried about the respect and honour they can be given, but the impacts and influence they can give!
Leadership is about inspiration with character, not manipulation with position!
To make plans and not make good use of them is like “betraying your success helpmate” after getting to know him. Make plans, get prepared, but let the work be done!
The reason why nothing happens is because nothing was done. Something will happen when something is done. Leaders take actions!
To know God, you must appreciate the salvaging will of His son. Through Christ, we become true leaders worthy of rewards!
Knowing God is not enough; you must make Him known to others. Through your living character, you tell more about the living God!
Just as every crop performs on its specific type of soil, and not all fishes can grow in every kind of water, so is leadership. You can’t lead where you can’t thrive; you can lead where you can survive!
The worst ever offence you can commit against your time is to think that “time spent making plans is time being wasted!” Leaders don’t think that way!
To a leader, reputation is an option, but true character is a necessity!
The state of convenience lies in the hands of proper planning. When you know this, you will become a good planner; and when you become a good planner, you save your life from stress!
You owe the world a load of wisdom to dispense. If you lay hands on the grace, make it happen. They world needs you!
The bedrock of corruption is the attitude of selfishness. Nations are ruined when politicians think for themselves first before thinking about anyone else!
Honour comes and goes, influence comes and stays, but none of them safeguards us against danger than the mentor of true leadership; Jesus Christ!
Never be anxious about maintaining the position you occupy. Be anxious about maintaining your good character and you will never lose your leadership influence!
People will know you for who you are, but will remember you for what you have done. True leaders make long lasting impacts!
Move what you can do at level one when you get to level one. When you get to level two, you need a bigger power to move it!
Opportunities loiter in every corner. Everyone may see them, but it’s only great leaders that stop by to give them lifts!
Leaders don’t settle for less. When you do so, you rob humanity of what you are supposed to deliver!
When you understand who you are by knowing what God created you to do, you have no room for becoming jealous over what someone else is doing.
The fact that you lack the fruits is not a proof that you don’t have seeds. It’s not too late to drop your potentials into a good soil. Do it now, harvest awaits you soon!
You break the legs of your leadership chair when you chase after other people’s assignments instead of pursing yours!
You have many gifts, some will help you to connect the right people while others help you to get to the right places. But it takes your dominant gifts for you to be able to take the lead!
There is an easy way of finding the job to be done today, just look around your environment; take note of the places that need cleaning and the places that need decoration; do one at a time!
It is not the person who is being taken out of a trouble that gains experience on how to deliver people from troubles. It’s the person who does the deliverance that gains more experience. Leadership is service!
People may advice you, guide you and evaluate what you do, but bear in mind they can’t think for you. You don’t blame people for not thinking for you; blame yourself for depending on them to do what you must do.
Grass is greener at other people’s feet because they watered it. You need not to let your environment control you, you have what it takes to make it look beautiful!
Never fall in love with anything life throws at you. You have what it takes to colour your environment with the right decisions at the right time!
God has buried your leadership roles in your gifting. To take the lead, you got to unzip the gift bag. It’s your responsible to make it happen!
