INCONVENIENCE

Motivational quote of the day

"Be willing to accept a temporary inconvenience for a permanent improvement. Self-improvement should be intentional but the effort and time invested in it will pay off in handsome dividends one day.

Motivational quote of the day

“Some people are so good in making other people look bad. That is not a gift that is a sickness. Strong people bring out the best in others. Weak people build themselves up at the expense of others. So be strong and do not be weak."

MINDSET

motivational quote 

There is a big difference between the mindsets of:

a. What is it that they can do for me now that I am a leader?

b. What can I do for my team now that I am a leader?

Good leaders go for the second one!

Here is a powerful motivational quote for you: “Believe in yourself! And now prepare to work very…very…hard!"
Belief alone will not get you there. You need to put action and execution into it.

Criticisms & Dreams

Motivational quote of the day

Whether you do good or not, there will always be criticisms.

And so this is the best way to deal with it:

If it is untrue, disregard. If it is unfair, don't get irritated.

If it is ignorant, smile. If it is justified, learn from it.

Criticisms will never go way. Learn to deal with it.

Motivational quote of the day

"Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is like a broken wing’s bird that cannot fly.” says Langston Hughes and so I add to this the famous quote of missionary William Carrey who says: “Expect great things from God, attempt great things for God."

OLD REMINDER

Motivational quote of the day

This is an old reminder worth repeating. Do not complain. Do not grumble.

Somebody says: "90% of those who hear you do not care and the rest of them think you deserve it."

Motivational quote of the day

"Being nice and kind to someone you dislike in the work place is not an act of hypocrisy. This is simply a show of courtesy and maturity. What is important is you are doing your best yet you are maintaining your decency, professionalism and dignity. So be mature and act maturely even if others are not."

SELF - IMPROVEMENT

Motivational quote of the day

Be willing to accept a temporary inconvenience for a permanent improvement. Self-improvement should be intentional but the effort and time invested in it will pay off in handsome dividends one day.

Motivational quote of the day

Dave Willis says "Be an encourager, the world is already full of critics.” It is very difficult to find a happy critic. No monument has ever been dedicated to him (her).

So rather than criticising the job, the boss, the work or the person we work with, change the method and start being thankful we have a job, we have work. Encourage someone in the work place. Then watch the magic happens.‪

ENVY & TEMPTATION

Motivational quote of the day

It has been said that every time you turn green with envy you are ripe for trouble. 

Learn to celebrate other people's success. When a person becomes bitter over someone's else's victory then envy closes the door of opportunity and it is not a good thing.

 

Motivational quote of the day

The way to make friends is to be interested in them and refuse the temptation to try to be interesting. I have so many friends and that is truly my wealth and riches. Many of them started out as clients and now they are good friends. This is what makes life and work meaningful.

PRICELESS & SUCCESSFUL

Motivational quote of the day A person is called “priceless” because he or she cannot be bought by money. Principles trump personal gain.
The person’s worth is high and cannot be measured by a price tag.
Price and worth may mean the same thing but when one bows down to money and power, then priceless becomes worthless and it’s a bad thing.
F.K


Motivational quote of the day

"You see someone who is successful and you may feel bad because you are far from this person’s level. Do not fret. Work hard. Learn and improve constantly.
Do not do short cuts. You will lose out eventually. Do not lie and make false claims, if you do so you will be found out.
Your success level will come in due time. Respect the process.
Somebody says this beautifully and I fully agree: "Do not compare your chapter 1 to someone else’s chapter 20."
Learn and go through the process.

TRY AGAIN & MONEY

                                                                      
Motivational quote of the day If at first you don't succeed, do not try again. Find out first the reason why. Correct the mistakes and then try again.
If you keep on doing the same thing, you will keep on getting the same results. This is not only a business principle, it is a leadership and life principle as well.

                                                                      

Motivational quote of the day

If you lend someone money, and never see that person again; it was probably worth it. Money is the acid test of character. Watch a person’s attitude towards money & you will have a peak into the soul. Jesus says no man can serve two masters; either he or she will serve God or money. Many great men have fallen today because of their insatiable desire for money. Use money and never let it use you.

HIS/HER FRIENDS..

Motivational quote of the day

You will know a man not only by his friends but by his enemies. The unrighteous hate the righteous. The untruthful hate the truthful. That is just the way it is. Light cannot co-exist with the dark. We need to make sure we do what is right and we become people who embrace and love truth.

Motivational quote of the day

Here is an idea. Live within your means but don’t stay there. The needs and wants always change over time. Increase your means by increasing your value, skills and ability to do so. Know how to increase your income by growing yourself, your competence, knowledge and most importantly your character.

KNOCK OUT

Motivational quote of the day

Former boxing heavyweight champion Mike Tyson says: "Everybody has a strategy until they get punched in the face." This is so true. Ask me about it. We have plans and then life gives us a left hook we never saw coming. Do not deny it, do not fight it but roll with the punch. Learn from it. Pick yourself up, then continue the fight. A knockdown is not a knockout.

 


Motivational quote of the day

In boxing a dirty trick is to hit below the belt. When somebody hurls insults, bash or offend instead of improving the argument then that person is hitting below the intellect. No need to be upset or angry because the match is not worthy. Be at peace. You are not obligated to answer back and sometimes silence is the best argument.

CAREER & HUMILITY

Motivational quote of the day

Your career is not your life. But you need to put life in your career. A career that’s not growing is a deadbeat job. Some people are looking for companies that can make them grow. What they don’t understand is that it is their job to make themselves grow. When they grow they help their companies too. Start of the work week so now GO and GROW and then GLOW!

Motivational quote of the day

Humility is key to advancements. Because humility convinces you that there are many things you still do not know and that the things you know you still doubt. As my favorite philosopher Dallas Willard would say, "We need to doubt our doubts and we need to doubt our beliefs." This starts the quest for learning and search for knowledge.

PRAISES TO GOD

Motivational quote of the day
It is easy to offer loud praises to God when times are good and going for us but the real test of faith is how deep we trust Him when times are dark and difficult.













Motivational quote of the day

Many limits to our dreams are self-imposed. We hit an obstacle then we stop and we quit just when one extra step or perhaps another half kilometre would have made us cross the finish line and achieve our goals. So get on with it. Difficulty is temporary but quitting is forever! So Don’t Quit!

INDECISIVENESS

Motivational quote of the day
Somebody says: “I used to be indecisive and now I am not sure" 
Indecisiveness is not a good thing specially in business. I would rather make a decision fast even when wrong but have the chance to correct and make adjustments.Some people take a long time to decide. And when decision is made finds the situation has worsened.







Motivational quote of the day
Let's study. Why in your opinion does it take certain people a long time to make a decision? Let's learn from one another.
Some are afraid to take risks because one wrong move could be the end of everything. But better learn from your mistakes than regret the fact that the reason of failure was you didn't do anything or you decided too late. The biggest mistake a man can make is to be afraid of making one. We learn from our failures.

iNVEST TIME WiSELY

We need to constantly ask ourselves this question:
Is what I am doing today bringing me any closer to what I want and where I want to be tomorrow? If not then why not drop it?
We need to invest time only on the activities that would add value to our success goals. If not then time is wasted and time is redeemabl

lIFE LONG LEARNER

The basic foundation to becoming a life-long learner is this: to "always consider others better than yourself." This gives you the right attitude to learn from others.
I have met people who always consider themselves better than anybody else but the public always sees the real picture.

ACCEPT THE CHALLENGE

Today you might be asked to do something you have never done before. Accept the challenge. do not be afraid to stretch yourself, learn new things, do new things (as long as they are not illegal and immoral). Always remind yourself that the greatest among them started out as a beginner.

Motivational quote of the day

Motivational quote of the day Parenting is not easy because parents should not only give good advice; they should give themselves as good examples. Kids believe more in what they see than what they hear.
But when the day comes when you see kids do the right thing and they say because that is what they learn from their parents....then comes the reward! There is a term for this it is called: legacy.
F.K


Motivational quote of the day

Sometimes a conflict issue is easily understood, explained and resolved when the basic question is reframed this way:
“Would you approve of this outcome if this were to be done to you? Would you find it reasonable?" The basic principle here is to: 
“Do unto others…..as if you were the others! 

TEMPTATIONS

Here is a healthy tip that keeps me reminded:
Temptations and situations are constantly available that could make us compromise integrity. We are just one word, one action, one behavior, one look away from doing something stupid that we might regret for the rest of our lives. Every choice carries consequences so we need to make sure we make the right ones. Be wise. Have fun and enjoy life. It's a gift from God.

HONESTY

Honesty comes with a price. It is not cheap; it is expensive and only people with value can give it. Determine to be honest all the time. People who are so used to white lies eventually become color blind. Do you agree?
F.K

IMPATIENCE

Motivational quote of the day

One of the hardest things to learn in life is to wait. Much of life involves waiting and many wrong decisions are made because of impatience.

When children are trained to wait then they become more disciplined and are in better positions to succeed. It's easy for me to say and difficult for me to do but it must be learned and it must be developed.

Motivational quote of the day

Life is a mixture of triumphs and tragedies. The strong person always remain in the center of both. So never allow triumphs to get into your head and never allow failures to creep into your heart. We need to put God as our Center that keeps us stable, strong and grounded.

ONE DAY..

I love this quote and maybe you do too:
Things we love we will lose one day.
Things we fear we will face one day.
Sometimes God puts us in the dark to prove He is the light.
And He is more concerned with our character more than our "success."

A PASSION TO IMPROVE

A person who has a passion to improve and excel will always out perform 99 others who merely have an interest to do the same.

There are those who say they want to improve but they go back to their own lazy ways. And then there are the rare winners who constantly find ways to improve and when they do, others see and conclude that they are mere "lucky."

MANY OPTIONS

Each and everyday of our lives, we are presented with many options .There is power in the ability to choose correctly.Not choosing is even choice itself.If we don not choose how we ought to live life correctly,then others will choose for us and it is always not at and for our best interest.

DAILY ROUTINE

Famous speaker and author Mike Murdock says: "The secret of your future is hidden in your daily routine." 
If you want to be outstanding, you need to structure a winning routine that would consist of activities that would add value to your success goals. Other activities that do not are mere distractions and should be eliminated.

PRAISE VERSUS FLATTERY

There is a big difference between praise and flattery.
Praising comes from an honest and humble heart. Flattering comes from deceitful and a defective heart. This is why Wendell Philips says: "Many men know how to flatter. Few men know how to praise. Check the heart motive at all times for after all, God sees the heart.
F.K

THE PROBLEM OF THE HEART

The real content of the heart is shown during the times prosperity. When we are poor we are humble. When we prosper we may become different. This is why we need to prepare our hearts even before we prosper.'
if the heart is right, even when things go wrong they will turn out right but if the heart is wrong, even the good things done will become wrong. The heart of the problem is the problem of the heart.

LIFESTYLE

For some people, their "lifestyle" is really a "death style." 
They are so absorbed with "style" they forget to work on the substance. They live on debt, they wear signature clothes and accessories they cannot afford it. 
Be real. Be authentic. Be simple. Be frugal. Be wise.

TIME IS ESSENTIAL

Motivational quote of the day
Time is precious and we need to have the skills and knowledge to manage it correctly. There are essential things we need to do and then there are trivial things that rob us of time. If I do not have clear set goals then I will be spending time doing the trivial (answering all emails, doing FB, browsing over celebrities Instagram) and lose track of doing things that would add value to my success goals. Work on the essentials.




Motivational quote of the day
The worst time to say anything is when you are upset, angry, confused or frustrated. The words you say at the height of your emotional moment are words that are not grounded on logic but on feelings. Those emotional outbursts always cause trouble big time! Better to keep quiet until your anger subside before doing anything
