Refusing to read after you leave school has the effect of gradually putting your brain in standby mode.

Stimulate your brain by regular reading. It will in turn stimulate your finances by providing you marketable ideas that can make you wealthy.

To be rich, don't think of what you need. Think of what people need and how you can help them get it.


People will pay you to solve their problems for them. “Don’t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too“

The secret to wealth is living beneath your means while doing all you can to expand your means.

Change your language from 'I cant afford it', to, 'How can I afford it'. impossible is possible! "Everything is possible for one who believes"

Be aware that the day your company no longer need you, they will fire you. They don’t like you. They like your work.


And the day they can get a machine to do your job, you are gone! Don't wait for it. Start growing your business and sack them first.

Read books, because the only asset you have that‘s not affected by inflation or devaluation is knowledge.


Provided you apply it, what you learn determines what you earn. What you know is responsible for how far you go. Books are pregnant with wealth.

Education is a means to an end, not an end itself. By itself, it can't make you rich. It is what you do with it that makes you rich.

Acquire education for the purpose of applying it in real life and not just for the purpose of passing examinations.

Saul was so humble when he was broke, that he took instructions from Samuel. But when he saw wealth and power, he turned to a tyrant.


The man shaking for you now, may shake your confidence when he sees small change. Broke humility is fake humility.

No matter how dark it gets in your life, I assure you that the sun will still shine again. You are only being tested so your strengths are revealed to you.


Even if you are FEARFUL, be assured that God is FAITHFUL. Get relief from your belief in God.

* Your world is a projection of your word
* Your nation is a projection of your imagination
* Your community is a projection of your identity
* Your environment is a projection of your endowment

If you want to change the world, start with yourself.

Christ did not tell even His own brothers that He planned to visit Jerusalem (John 7:cool. Mystify haters by not talking about your plans on social media.

By revealing your plans, you alert your monitoring spirits (AKA haters) to spoil those plans.

Never promise what you can do. Make it a habit to promise a little less than you can deliver and deliver much more than you promise.


It will make your promises more valuable than money and give you more credibility than a bank. Promise LOW, win BIG

It is sometimes even more spiritually beneficial to fast from smartphones, Internet and TV, than it is to fast from food.


Many times, when satan wants to separate us from God, he finds someone to ‘bless’ us with a smartphone and recharge card.

People dont change. The veil just gets lifted. You only know people when they stop benefiting from you.

As long as they gain from you, many people suppress their real nature. It is why your colleagues behave differently in the presence of your boss.

Never outtalk enemies. Out-listen them. If they talk, listen

Never outsmart your foes. Outthink them. Thinking outweighs smartness

Never outwork your enemies. Outperform them. Work is activity. Performance is result. Deliver results, not activity.

Your children are your life’s work. Your job is your work life. Don’t sacrifice your life’s work for your work life.

At the end, your success is gauged by your life’s work. In fact, your work life may not notice when you die. Your life’s work will.

A husband’s role is to PROVIDE. A wife’s role is to CONTRIBUTE. Any marriage where these roles are reversed is dysfunctional.

Of course there will be ups and downs in a man’s life. But he should rely on his wife for SUPPORT, not for DEPENDENCE!

Australia is 14 hours ahead of America, yet America is richer. Those who start before you are not necessarily ahead.


Life is a marathon. We are all ahead. It’s about perspective. A butterfly is beautiful, but no comparison can transform into a bird.

Elephants are pregnant for 22 months. Rabbits are pregnant 1 month. Rats are pregnancy for 2 weeks.


The length of their pregnancies differ because what they carry are different. You are pregnant with greatness. Stop comparing your life with others.

Eggs are hatched only when they are ready. If you try to crack them before they are ready, the chick inside will die.


Your life is an egg in God’s hands. Don’t force things, like love, marriage and affection. If you do, the chicks inside may die!

Spend the last few hours before you go to bed planning. If you have free time during the day and worry and anxiety try to creep into your mind, counter those thoughts by actively planning the next day.


Anxiety is afraid of organisation and planning.

A productive day does not start in the morning. It starts the night before. If you wait until morning to plan your day, it may not be productive.

Plan your day the night before, in the quietude of your bedroom and you will improve your productivity.

I had a pal in high school who came last in the whole form. He said his dad would kill him. His dad found out he was last.


He did not beat him. He calmly told him ‘you would always be first to me’. Appreciate parents. NOBODY can love you like them.

You are the EQUAL of anyone on Earth. Once you understand and accept that, you will just be brimming with confidence and no one can intimidate you.

You see, there are high and low STATUSES. But there are no high and low men. You are not your STATUS.

If your salary always runs out after paying your bills, life is sending you a message that you have outgrown that income.

What do you do when you outgrow things? You go and get bigger ones. So go and get a business that gives you a bigger income.

Christ said “Whoever has will be given more, and they will have abundance.”-Matt 13:12. God does not respond to NEED.

He responds to PRODUCTIVITY. Even though you have NEEDS, still be PRODUCTIVE. PRODUCE something that God can bless with INCREASE.

Your MIND is the ENGINE of your LIFE. If you dont SERVICE your ENGINE it will KNOCK!

Many people live KNOCKED UP lives because they don’t SERVICE their MINDS. How do you SERVICE a MIND?

READ REGULARLY
MEDITATE on what you READ
APPLY what you READ.

Buying designers clothes and shoes is also investing in yourself. But it is a diminishing investment.

Instead, invest in appreciative investment.

* EDUCATION
* REAL ESTATE
* EXERCISING, and
* RECREATION

Are examples appreciative investments!

What is the OUTCOME of your INCOME?

Think about that for a minute.

Do you earn only to spend?

When you spend your earnings, values leaves. When you save your earnings, some value is retained. When you invest your earnings, Value is MULTIPLIED!

Don’t invite people who refused to celebrate your small victories to the celebration of your big victories.


They only want to celebrate the victory. They don’t want to celebrate you. People who want to celebrate you, celebrate both big and small.

Dear men,

A woman with:

* Car
* Human hair
* iPhone
* Jewellery
* Designer
* Expensive shoes &
* High taste in food

but, no rich family, job, or business commensurate to her lavish lifestyle, CANNOT be the one, except satan wants to END you!

The lifestyle of buying what you don’t need to impress people, is not for me. If we die tomorrow, both the leg that we bought the shoe for, and the shoe itself will decay.

I want to make a difference with my life. I don’t want to make an impression.

To have a better life, you must find better friends. You are the sum of the friends you keep. You cant have a better life if you keep bitter friends.

You cant have a good life if you have bad friends. Friends make or break you. Show me your friends.
