DISCIPLINE ALONE IS NOT ENOUGH

By GRACE A. JOHN-UGWUANYA


















Have you wondered why it is very easy to set goals in a new year but before the first quarter runs out, we don't commit ourselves to those goals?
The reason is that we rely more on only discipline without putting other factors in place that will assist in achieving our goals.
Failure becomes inevitable if we rely on only discipline while still being in an environment that favours our old habits.
A smoker who desires to quit cannot always be in the company of smokers and exercise discipline. The temptation is very high with an increased attraction to pick up a cigarette.
To achieve your goals, you need to create an enabling environment that makes it easy for you to succeed.
To avoid wasting your mental energy over putting off task, always complete tasks as they come up.
Do you think discipline alone will help?

To your success,
Grace A. John-Ugwuanya

ONE MAJOR WAY OF BEING RESPONSIVE TO YOUR ABILITY

By PRAISE AKOBO It's possible you may or may not have thought of 'responsibility' as a 'response to ability'. So, let's roll. .. .. .. Have you checked, how that, when you were given a task, be it in school, church, office, firm or even that which you gave yourself? Did you see that, somehow, you felt lackadaisical at first but decided to take the bull by its horn? Now, the ability to do that was resident within, but came alive when you chose to act, this is why you hear words like UNTIL YOU GET STARTED, YOU CAN NOT START. .. .. .. I discovered that I understood something's about myself when I was given a responsibility in an N.G.O and accepted it. Just like you, I hesitated but until today, that has been a major factor in my growth. My NETWORK grew as well my NET WORTH. Lets say for instance, you are asked to be part of an Editorial Committee, you finally accepted, then along the line, you discovered ...

FREE MEAL, THE KILLER OF PERSONAL GREATNESS! “As mosquitoes cause malaria so free food leads to walking pneumonia in the operating system of our inner confidence. To get the lift, pay the bill. No free meal.” -Iziaq Olawale- As a bachelor who speaks across the country and beyond in his verge to add value through his business of MINDgineering and encouragement, my experience in some restaurants from highly rated ones in Victoria island to the so – called mama put on the mainland even in some bukas/local restaurants at Shibiri, Ojo Lagos has taught me some indispensable lessons which I’ll like to share with you today. As I visit some local restaurants in the city, I observed that some of them usually ask for money before service while others do allow you to pay your bill after service. The yorubas would say; ejo, esan owo yin o boda/uncle/aunty/daddy or mummy. Depends on your age and appearance while the non – Yorubas would say; oga, abeg, your money. As I g...
