DISCOVER PURPOSE, DISCOVER SUCCESS!
By Sam Adeyemi 


Every day we wake up and get set to go out. Some people get ready to go to work, school, a meeting or an appointment.

There is one movement or the other everywhere you go. People are in frenzy; they are literally taking to their heels. Everybody is in a hurry to get to some place. Where?
The big question however is: how many people really know where they are going in life?

Every journey must have a destination. Life is a journey. Before God allowed us to be born into this world, He made a plan for our lives. This shows that every single person has a purpose for being alive, but not everyone discovers that purpose. So it is left to you to discover your purpose by asking God who created you and sent you here.

The discovery of God’s purpose is the foundation for successful living and this discovery yields certain benefits.

Purpose gives direction: It inspires us to dream of our destination in life and we only travel on the road that leads to that destination. When you do not know where you are going, anyone is free to direct you and any path can take you anywhere. But a sense of purpose tells you which way to go or not to go.

Purpose launches us on a crusade: Each of us is born to solve a problem. Purpose gives us a cause for which we can be willing to live and die.  It helps us to live a life of contribution. If you are not living for something, you can die for anything. When you discover the purpose for which you are on earth, you cannot die anyhow. Death only respects the man that knows his purpose for being alive.

Purpose guarantees our ultimate success: “For we know that all things work together for good for them that love God, who are called according to his purpose.”  Provision, protection and divine assistance are guaranteed when we are carrying out God’s assignment for our lives. Your purpose determines the resources you need per time. The reason why you are not getting some things could be because it is not in line with your purpose or it is not time yet. Many years ago, I wanted so desperately to leave the country to supposedly “greener pastures.” I tried all I could but I was denied visa, even to Kenya. Others would have thought it was the work of the enemy or enemies, but now I know it was simply not time yet for me to travel out.

Purpose makes it easier for us to make choices in life: Once you discover your destination, making decisions on your career, choice of life partner and location becomes easier.

Purpose breeds confidence: Discovery of purpose reveals who we are. It enhances your esteem. It helps us realize that we are not inferior to others, we are only different. When you know your purpose, you will not compare yourself to others. “For we dare not class ourselves or compare ourselves with those who commend themselves. But they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.”

Purpose breeds persistence: Knowing that our success is ultimately guaranteed by God who makes us to hold on in the face of adversity. We realize that negative circumstances are always temporary.

Purpose makes us original: When we are left to ourselves, we usually imitate others.
The discovery of purpose puts us in a class of our own. God specializes in making originals and not duplicates.

Finally purpose keeps you alive: Once God shows you your destination in life, it is inevitable you will arrive there, if you do not give up. Several attempts were made on the life of Christ. But he escaped, because he was destined only to die on the cross. 

Discover your purpose and you will be on the path of success!

You will succeed!

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...

I FEEL FLY WHENEVER I SEE MY DESIGN OUTSIDE THE REACH OF AFRICA. “When he left ehnnn, my people, I cried, cried, cried and cried. And to make it worst, am to resume everyday in my school uniform as the uniform for the fashion designing......that Man ehnnn!” Really I do not know where to start from but let me start with a story I will always tell my kids and grandchildren. Growing up was not too easy for me because I was stubborn and I had a disciplinarian and a strict man as a father. He will always force me to study at night before sleeping and in the morning before going to school, but me, ehnnn, I don't like this thing they call book. NAH! NAH! But one thing I can do WELL is SKETCHING, sewing dresses for dolls and anything handy and outside reading but not reading even story books makes me sleep. So it happen that one day after end of second term in JSS 3, I was given my report card and it was written 'advice to go to commercial class' instead of S...
