THE GREATEST MISTAKE!
By Olapurpose James Asu

“The greatest mistake anyone can ever make in life is to live or die without discovering his or her life’s purpose.”

What is purpose? Purpose is the intention or function of creation. In order words, it is what something or somebody is supposed to achieve.

Everyone on this planet earth has been given a specific assignment. And the greatest mistake anyone can ever make in this life is to live or die without discovering his or her purpose of existence. The discovery of your purpose will enable you to be able to make a difference in life. It will help you to arrive at the pinnacle of affluence. Living in life without discovering your true self and essence of being will incapacitate you from impacting your world fully for God.

It was after Adam had tended and took care of the Garden of Eden that God said it was not good that man should be alone. That was why God created Eve for him; to supplement, help and assist him in the assignment given to him by His Master (God). But it is a pity today that the reverse is the case in our generation. Many are putting the cart before the horse. In order words: the discovery of spouse is what many young ones are seriously seeking not the discovery of purpose. What to do must always come before whom to marry. Discover your God-given work which is your purpose. You can find enjoyment in your job, but the only place where you can find real and lasting fulfillment is in your God-given assignment which is your work?

Hear what Jesus Christ said about His work: “I must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day, the night is coming when no one can work. My father has been working until now, and I have been working.” John 9:4. Seek first your life’s assignment because in its discovery lies your life’s fulfillment.

Those people that got to zeniths of greatness in their various careers and callings discovered their purpose early enough which helped them to step into such admirable and enviable positions. It is not just about giving birth to your womb your child. When are you going to give birth to your brain child? It is not just about watching television. When are people going to start watching you on the television? Television is a televised vision. That is, bringing people’s vision into an instrument or device whereby you can see what they’ve done in the past or doing at present moment. It is not just about watching AfricaMagic or CNN. Do you know or not that it’s possible for people to watch you on AfricaMagic or CNN? If you can think it, you can do it. Our Lord Jesus Christ discovered His life’s purpose when He was just 12 years old. Check Luke 2: 42-49.  

It is not just about Facebooking or been on Facebook 24/7. Maybe you’ve even been awarded as the best Facebooker and you’ve not yet discovered what you’re here to do. When are you going to discover something spectacular for your own life? Mark Zuckerberg became a billionaire when he was just 23 because he discovered a social media known as Facebook. Michael Faraday discovered the Electricity and Thomas Edison discovered the Incandescent Bulb where the Electricity of Faraday was been inserted. When are people going to see something unique coming out of your life? 

You must discover God’s ultimate plan and purpose for your life while you’re still young and very strong!

You must discover your purpose before you can become someone of note and repute in your nation and to your generation. You must discover what you’re made and created for. That’s what will make life meaningful for you. Because if you can’t do this that means God has wasted effort in creating you. God is a Creator and you also must create something with your own life as long as you live and breathe. Doing this will make God, your family, nation and generation be so proud of you.

Remember: It is your assignment that will give you fulfillment in life. Don’t make such greatest mistake, discover your purpose. Today is the day because tomorrow may be too late.

FILL YOUR OWN MOULD By Emeka Nobis I had boasted to Ikenna and my classmates that I could play the number five position in football. That was borne out of envy because Ikenna's football skills were hailed. I decided to tame his mouth. That was in 1992, my second year of secondary school at Marist Comprehensive Academy, Okigwe. I became the last substitution in the fifth minute of the second half of a match our school played with a neighbouring school. That meant I couldn't be replaced anymore. It was absolute tomfoolery. I ran around the pitch in a pattern similar to pollen grains in water. I couldn't even trap the ball, mostly letting it pass through the hollow of my legs to the opponents. I was playing what was called "Shorting one" in our local parlance. Football wasn't just my forte. For me, it was eating the desert before the entrée in a four-course meal.  But it was different when I handled a pen and a sheet of paper. I could write e...
DO YOU WANT TO EXPERIENCE ENDLESS BLISS AND FIND LASTING FULFILMENT?  Every individual born into this world is endowed with at least a gift, with which to achieve greatness in life. It is a great pity that so many people have not yet discovered or maximised their gifts- their source of wealth, impact and influence. And unless they discover their gifts, they can't rule their world. Discover your gift(s) and rule your world. Your gift is your source of wealth. Unravel it early while you still have breath because it is your primary source of influence and affluence in life. Creativity is an asset entrusted to you as a special gift to benefit humanity with. If truly you are genuinely created in the image and likeness of God that automatically gives you the assurance of possessing creative and innovative power both to invent and to discover new and profound ways of doing things.  On this note we all @ SCHOOL OF PURPOSE DISCOVERY INTERNATIONAL have brought the FABULOUS ...
