Most of the world’s problems are caused by people who made education compulsory, but personal development optional. Because of them, we have many intelligent people who lack good characters.
~ Israelmore Ayivor
Keep your promises and never be late in acting. Act right and do the right things at the right time.
The most difficult step ever is the first step. It comes with doubts, uncertainties, and all sort of fears. If you defy all odd and take it, your confidence will replicate very fast and you'll become a master!
The only person to influence the direction and purpose of your life is the one who gave it. God!
Leadership is self-made. People who have deliberately decided to become problems solver lead better.
Sometimes, people don’t need our homes to live in or our bodies to lean on. All they need are our hands to lift them up.
People who achieve marvelously in critical challenges are commended than people who achieve same things on the silver platter.
Bear it in mind that people who do not take actions are not and cannot be leaders. Leadership is action.
Good people who are always silent for bad people to gain freedom and do their worsts are the most dangerous wastes the world ever has.
If you create an environment of conflicts, I don’t think you will enjoy peace yourself.
Sometimes the only things preventing your dreams from becoming realities is the long time it is taking you to start.
Don’t just have dreams. Take actions too. To make it possible, begin every dream with a simple action and your interest will beam out.
Be passionate about your dreams and never give sleep to your eyes until your good becomes better and your better becomes the best.
You will never be rewarded for the dreams you slept over day in day out. You will be rewarded for dreams you stay awake and achieved.
Until you let go of that bitterness in your heart, it will find a comfortable place to destroy your dreams, your sight and most times, your sleep.
Don’t only think of which job to get and live on. Think about which problem to solve and the jobs will keep suggesting themselves.
Cruel people are not only people who kill innocent people with guns. Individuals who steal from government coffers to enrich themselves at the expense of the poor are grossly cruel.
People who always want to be at convenient places won’t make a change at controversial places.
Five people with passion can do better than fifty people with mere desire or interest.
It is as simple as that. Birds fly because they have wings and so when you can’t grow the wings, you can’t be called a bird. Leaders make impacts because they create new ideas and so if you can’t think of any new innovative ideas, you can’t be a leader.
Until you fall in love with positive change, becoming passionate about improving the status quo, you won’t become a leader.
A great number isn’t bad though, but doesn’t take numbers to change the world.
What it takes is the passion to lead and the commitment to that passion through a lifetime. A great number isn’t bad though, but doesn’t take numbers to change the world.
Be the initiator of things you wish to see, but can’t see. Be the originator of things you wish you feel but can’t feel.
The leader’s joy is the success of change, the evidence of progress and the actualization of a better life.
Never undermine the power of passion. You have a very high chance of achieving anything you are passionate about.
Try not to leave your work for someone else to do. If possible, carry the work of someone and add it to yours. That's a trait of leaders!
You can lead if you can serve. You can serve when you can love. You can love when you are graced. The truth is that God knows love will be needed in volumes, this is why he made his grace abundant. Leaders are lovers. Misleaders are haters!
Most times, the leader’s ornament isn’t the smiles you see on their faces during the time of victory. It is the sweats we don’t see when they were struggling behind the scenes.
Ensure you have done each day’s portion of the heavy responsibilities resting on you. Never delay your success!
Stick to love, it is heavy and it will carry you. Avoid hatred, it is heavy and you have to carry it. It is left to you to make your choice.
When you give up because challenges arise, you are just too ignorant about the power of the gifts you carry within you.
Never let hatred give you an escort. It will drag your attention from all fortunes along the way.
Every talent God has hidden in you is not for your own consumption, they are for other people’s liberation.
You don’t see someone flying and you begin to bite yourself for not being able to do that. You do what you can.
Everyone appears to be courageous until bad weathers arrive, and then we know the true leaders.
When dark situations arise, it is opportunity for you to reveal the leader in you. Rise and deal with them.
Love people who hate you and their hatred won’t get grounds to gain roots.
Ballot papers don’t determine who leads; they determine who takes which position. As to whether that person occupying the position will lead or will manipulate, character must come to prove it.
Would people be excited about your departure from the earth or they would wish you should come back again and again if possible?
