7 wonderful principles that can make
the big difference for you.
1. Principle Number 1: '' Life is
plastic.'' Those were the words of
Benjamin Franklin. The man who
showed the world how to turn
lightening into electricity. Thinking
about his words deeply, I find that
no truer words have ever been
spoken about the nature of life and
how events turn out for each of us.
''Life is plastic''. Its empowering. It
means that you and I have the
power to mould ourselves our lives
and our circumstances into whatever
we desire ourselves to be. You
cannot choose the beginning of the
story of your life, but you can
choose to mould it like a plastic into
how you would love the story to
end. It’s empowering when you
think of Benjamin Franklin’s
principle of seeing life like a plastic.
2. Principle Number 2: Get a strong
push. The rich man and the
swimming pool of snakes. Get a
strong push. What is your push?
What is the source of your
motivation? You can do great
outstanding things if you a find a
strong enough motive. The stronger
your motive, the more powerful
your actions.
3. Exert Yourself: There will be a
time to rest when you are dead. Now
is a time to work, to exert yourself to
make the most of yourself, to make
yourself useful and not a time to be
sleeping. Death is sleeping for a very
long time, there is plenty of time to
be sleeping once you are dead.
4. The principle of continuous
planting: Our work in life is just to
plant every day. Not to question
when the things we have planted
will germinate. But to just plant.
keep sowing. Not waiting around the
seeds that we have planted out of
anxiety, lest our own shadows
standing over the seeds should stop
the sun rays from nurturing the
seeds. Life decides when the seeds
we have been planting will
germinate. But in the mean time, we
are supposed to be planting .
5. The principle of the circle of
influence. it was propounded by
Stephen covey. It teaches that as
you concentrate on what you can do,
you unknowingly begin to positively
affect the things that you previously
could not control. The things that
were previously outside your circle
of influence.
6. There is this principle of applied
faith. It means acting your way into
the proposed future. When you
desire to become something, don’t
say when you have become that
great man or woman, you will start
acting like that great person. The
principle of applied faith means that
you should begin today, right where
you are, to act the part of that great
person before you actually become
it. To talk like the great person you
wish to become, to read the kind of
books that great people read, to do
the kind of things that great people
do, to go to the kind of places that
great people go, to make the kind of
friends that great people make, this
is the principle of applied faith
7. The principle of giving your best.
No man can give his best to life
without being bountifully rewarded
by life. Think about this: Who you
are, where you were born, the talents
and gifts you received at birth are
all very important. Yet none of
these things were of your own
choosing. Even though single
handedly, these things can
determine the opportunities you get
in life, the friends you attract, and a
whole lot of other things, (things
that can either set you up for success
or failure) they were not of your
own choosing. You received them
from life. They were programmed
into you by default. Now if you,
taking careful inventory of all you
received from life, would set out to
give to life your very best, (the best
of all you can possibly give) it is
inevitable that you will receive the
very best from life- the best from
life that you can possibly receive.
What you have is all you can give.
As much as you give is as much as
you can have.7 wonderful principles that can make
