Finding Your Place, Fulfilling Your Passion 1


To find your fulfillment in life, you need to have two things: location (your place) and your passion.  Finding the right location or being in the right place is very important. You cannot be in the wrong place and succeed in the life. It is also possible to be in the right place and misplace your passion.
That is why you need to pay attention to where you are (your place) and you ambition (your place). Many people would have been very successful in life, but they missed their place and their passion. That is why the first thing you need to set out is your place. Are you in the wrong employment? In the wrong career or vocation? In short, you need to pause and ask yourself where you are. Is your present location where you are actually supposed to be at the moment? Is it where your creator wanted you to be or where destiny has placed you? If fate has determined your present location, then you are in the wrong place.
No matter how you hard you try, you will not be fulfilled there. It is even possible that you find yourself in the oil sector, banking or if possible in the mint. But you find it difficult to make any headway or be fulfilled because you are in the wrong place.
In the book of the beginning, Genesis, the Almighty God asked Adam, ‘’where art thou?’’ Why did you think God asked this question? It is because God understood the importance of destiny and purpose.
Quite a number of people wants to make it big in life, but neglects the priority of ‘’place’’ and ‘’passion’’ if you want to understand  what misplacing ‘passion’ is,  look at the music or entertainment world. There is no doubt about it many of these musicians are in the right places in their career. I mean there is nothing bad in using one’s  God-given potentials and talents to fulfill one’s  destiny and purpose. But do you know where they missed it? It is in the place of passion. This is where the archenemy, the devil is waiting for many your people. The devil might not be bothered about your place (He might not give a damn about that). He might not be able to determine this, only God can. But he waits for many people at the place of their passion. This is where destinies are destroyed and the lives of many young people are wasted. ‘Dagrin’ was popular musician who we might say found his place in music. But he misplaced his passion. We all knew the story. If you have found your place in life, you need to pay attention to your passion. If not your life will be miserable.

Want to live in Europe? Make sure you are not guilty of these!

  If you are a Naija and you have been dreaming of coming to Europe, you need to start imbibing cultures if you are to last here or else, you might soon find yourself back to Naija. All these are based on what I have seen here and not what I have read in a book or what I was told by a European or someone living here:   1. Traffic Rules: in Europe, traffic Rules are respected. Vehicles stop for you when the light is on 'green' or when you are on Zebra-crossing even when the vehicles are passed by the light. If you want a vehicle to stop for you, you need to be on the Zebra Crossing. Better still, you press a button to FasTrack your waiting for vehicles to pass. In Naija, don't try that or else the vehicle will crush you. In Europe, they have respect for pedestrians and drivers can apply a brake (even when they are on speed) to allow you to cross.   2 . Noise: If you are living in a room with another person, maybe a hostel, please use an ear phone or i-pod so t...

There is No Competition in Destiny

Image
I stumbled across this quote that I am sharing with you now, some years ago :"No competition in destiny." Ignorance about this truism has sent many people to their early graves. This is because they believe that to achieve anything in life, you have to fight or strive for it. In fact they are one of the staunch believer in, "the violent take it by force. Mr. Violent or Mrs. Violence or whatever you call yourself, success in life is not always so. The fact is that we are born differently even if you are of the same parentage. You run your own race, and I run mine. If you want to win in this competitive race, you need to know who ypou are competinng with. Without this, you can't win in this race. That your classmate is now local government chairman doesn't mean that you go and kill yoursef. My brother wait ypour own time is coming. Maybe, when their own time don finish, na him your own go start. The person that I taught in Primary school is now a citizen of Canada....

Making the Most of Time

Image
  Time is one of the greatest resources given to man. Our existence here on earth is regulated by time. No wonder the psalmist said, “So teach us to number days that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.” (Ps 90:12) Time is also one of the most valuable resources that we have. Your success or failure is determined by how well you maximize your time. What you do with your time is what you will get. If you use your time for a profitable venture, it will yield interest in quantifiable terms. If on the other way you invest your time in unprofitable venture, you will also get the reward. You can’t cheat time. You will be the greatest fool ever if you think you can fritter your time and then get profitable result. The Bible says, “God is not mocked, whatsoever a man soweth, so shall he reap.” (Gal 6:7), And do you know what amazes me about “time”.   God has given the same amount of time to everybody whether you are rich or poor; wise or foolish; prudent or wasteful, literate or...
