SAFE SPACES FOR YOUTH TO EXPRESS THEIR UNIQUENESS (Part One)



The glory of every youth lies in their strengths.

Your fingerprint is exceptional and sets you apart from any other personality. You're uniquely and wonderfully made. You're ordained for exploits.

The greatest gift you can give to humanity is selfless service and sacrifice of resourcefulness and that's what will determine your uniqueness.

Global Changers are not noise makers, they are news makers.

There are lots of spaces that youth can occupy in their communities and countries but it is a great pity to see so many of them living average lives instead of expressing their ultimate uniqueness.

And they can discover this wondrous paths by embracing lifestyles of resourcefulness.

On this note and at this juncture, I will be showing you few ways of maximizing opportunities and spaces available for you as a youth.

First of all is to stay relevant. Discover what you can do to make significant impact. What are you so passionate about? It is what will be driving you. If you're not passionate about doing anything, it will only reduce your rate of being influential and living phenomenal. Everyone of us have one or two gifts or talents that make us very special. The more we use them the more space we fill. And the more fulfil we feel.

Secondly, be visionary. You need to be driven by a compelling vision. The BIGGER your vision, the higher you attain great zeniths of greatness. Don't wait until you have the privilege of having millions, start with what you have. Start with a vision inside your mind. Start with an idea. You need idea to rule the world. What you see is who you become. If you see yourself as a grasshopper that's who you'll eventually become.

Thirdly, be a solution provider or carrier. The more problem you solve, the more valuable and preferable you become. You won't be a liability but an asset. There are deluge of problems in your community and country. Step up from your slumber or better still do more of what you do the most. You can solve the problem of transportation, education, ICT and the likes.

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 entrĂ©e 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 ...
