The quality of life is determined by the quality of your thoughts. Your life must move in the direction of your most dominant thought. You're what you think. Thoughts are things. To change your life, you must change your thinking. Man isn't a product of his circumstances or environment; he's a product of his thoughts.

Good morning, and do have a great day ahead.

Just like a musician would say "I killed the show", interestingly, I did a lot better in my speech delivery today as I was able to get the attention of my audience (fellow students) today.

Guys I am grateful, in particular, bare1 and you, the concept and ideas you gave worked just fine! Thanks.

I have just gotten a fellow student who also through my influence, wants to be delivering motivational speech in class. We have concluded that he should talk about GOAL.

But as for me, I will not be delivering speech until Monday, as usual kindly suggest a topic that would also be of great interest to the students, just like you suggested VISION.

As you give the topic, endeavour to give me hints and also write (in summary) about the topic. You can take your time to reply my post at a time you are probably less busy.

Thanks. May God in His infinite mercy increase you in knowledge and give you more wisdom to have great positive impact in the life of people.

Very good one. Yet another success story. Success begets success. Just keep being more passionate about motivating them. Life's beyond academics.

I'll direct to these two great books by Jim Rohn:

Puzzle. And Leading an inspired life. In fact, I'm reading the latter NOW! They will be of immense benefit to you.

We created this thread to impact lives positively. We rejoice as that purpose is achieved from time to time.

If you don't BEGIN, you can't WIN. If you don't run the race, you have NO hope of winning it. All our knowledge and information must be somehow converted into purposeful action.

Congratulations on another feat you have attained today. I'm impressed and glad that your influence has begun to rub off on your peers. I suggest you both work together henceforth to continue in your work. The good thing is that you would start to influence more people as they see the courage and ambition you both display together. It's easier for people to relate with you when they see the possibility of your starting something to reckon with.

You know one thing about this journey you embark on, it's one in which you need to explore on your own but alongside other people of like minds, hence the reason it's a personal/self-development. Truly life goes beyond academics but your teaching should reflect in your character. The strongest influence stems from what people see you do and not what you say, as you are what you do and not what you say you would do. What you need to do is to spend more time reading self-help books and learning to live a life worth emulating. Personally I stopped going to some places I used to and even cut off some friendships, limiting them to just 'hi-hi'. Knowledge is of no value if not applied. They say 'readers are leaders' but in truth not all readers are leaders but all leaders are readers, like Harry S. Truman said. The idea is to understand what you read and be able to identify with your own philosophy in accord with the philosophy of life.

I urge you to read my book where I tried to provide an insight to this lifestyle to give you the desire to seek more knowledge.

The future rewards are always there waiting for us. The journey toward success is a journey of a thousand steps, and it begins with a single book or a single promise finally kept. It begins with the awakening of our sleeping spirit brought on by dreams of all we could be.

Any day we choose we can stand up and take that first step on a journey that can lead us to a new and better way of life. We must not expect the results merely because we have begun the activity, but with continued effort and certain steps will surely come our future rewards.

Don't take your eyes off the rewards.

Bear this in mind and meditate on it:
1. ON EARNING:
Never depend on single income. Make investment to create a second chance.
2. ON SPENDING:
If you buy things you do not need, soon you will have to sell things you need.
3. ON SAVINGS:
Do not save what is left after spending, but spend what is left after saving.
4. ON TAKINGRISK:
Never test the depth of a river with both feet.
5. ON INVESTMENT:
Do not put all eggs in one basket.
6. ON EXPECTATIONS:
Honesty is a very expensive gift. Do not expect it from cheap people.
7. IF YOU are depressed, you are living in the past. If you are anxious, you are living in the future. If you are at peace, you are living in the present. Past is a waste paper. Present is a newspaper and future is a question paper.
8. WHEN bad things happen in your life you have three choices. You can either let it define you, let it destroy you or you can let it strengthen you.
9. EMPTY pockets teach you a million things in life but full pockets spoil you in a million ways.
10. OUR EYES are in the front because it is more important to look ahead than to look back.
11. WE USED a pencil when we were small but now we use pens... do you know why? Because mistakes in childhood can be erased but not now.
So read and write carefully otherwise life will be a tissue paper.

Thanks for your candid advice, however, my type of motivational speech is very religiously neutral, I make sure I pass my message in such a way that I don't claim to be hollier than thou.
That is why whenever I give my speech, I end it by saying, forget about the messanger; focus on the message.

I can't leave my life in pretence, after my speech, I still play around like every other student, moving with babes if necessary that's just ME.

Those who will get the message will always get it.

In matters of life such as success achievements, career, love relationships, we don't choose exactly what we get. The laws of attraction does but with our permission and influence. You might fancy a particular job but you're presented with something else. You might be physically attracted to a man or woman but end up with a different kind. You do have the power though to decide what you desire and get just that, but you must know how.
