Crediting God Alone For Your Success Is Wrong by kay29000(m): 7:44am On Apr 01, 2015 |
Yes; I believe that crediting God alone for your success is detrimental to other individuals out there that want to become rich and successful. Of cos God has a part to play in the whole equation, but no matter how much a lazy man prays without working, he would never be a success story. This gives a wrong notion to a lot of people who don't understand that wealth is built, and not gotten by luck or from being favored by a deity. God blesses the works of your hand. I see a lot of millionaires making statements like "It was God" and they just stop there, not mentioning the other ingredients that went into their recipe for success. Hard-work, dedication, specialized knowledge in your field, persistence, discipline, and focus are some of the core ingredients to have if you want to be successful in any field. If you have all these ingredients in the right amount, you can't but be successful. |

God is never responsible for any success, success is earned through hardwork, goodluck or being at the right place at the right time, Even the bible confirms this in the book of ecclesiastes chapter 9 verse 11, and it says I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all 1 Like |

ebamma: You mean God is not the one that brings success? And you are still quoting Bible to rob Him of His glory. Beware Psalm 127: If did not build the house, the builders work in vain. If God did not watch the city, the watchmen are awake in vain. If Paul plants and Apollo waters, it is God that brings increase. So how come did you arrived at such context? If the race is not to the swift and the rest...then who gave them success? Are you the one if not God? Pls beware!!! Your quoting shows you turn it upside down. May God help you. 1 Like |

kay29000: The people who will tell you they know all the steps to success are all those gurus out to get your money. Do not think anyone will tell you EXACTLY what he did to make it. You know why? Because most times, he simply does not know! Many are just at the right place at the right time. And what's that you say about "hard work"? I like the way George Monbiot puts it: "If wealth was the inevitable result of hard work and enterprise, every woman in Africa would be a millionaire" So keep praying! |

alignacademy: Did I say Hardwork alone makes someone a millionaire? Didn't you see all the other ingredients I listed? It is a combination of all those things. I have written books on this...I have researched the lives of the richest men in the world from Jay Z, to Mark Zuckerberg, to Dangote, to Bill Gates...There is always that element of hardwork in their success stories...if they engage in no hardwork "now" they did when they were starting out. |

Your George Monbiot has the mentality that the rich get rich via shady business deals and luck...Luck? I can never take any entrepreneur or motivational writer serious if he believes in luck. Go on with what you belief though...It is a free world. But I listen more to people that have done it than people that only give biased theories based upon their hidden hate for the rich and successful. |
