Innocence is only sweet when you are with other innocent people. However, it becomes foolishness when you continue to be innocent when you know full well you are in the company of ruthless people “be wise as serpents and gentle as doves”

“Wealth and poverty is in the heart”-Hadith

Contentment is the best wealth available. Contentment makes the poor feel rich. Discontentment makes the rich feel poor.

Get contentment and you get wealth.

Redefine money in your mind. Don’t see money as money. See it as SEED. Learn to plant it. Expect to eat its fruit, not its seed.

Stamp this mental picture in your mind. If you eat your SEED, you won’t be able to FEED tomorrow. FEED from your fruit.

Don’t save money in banks. Invest it. Currency can be devalued and your savings will lose value.


But when money is devalued, the worth of assets is recalculated to reflect the new value of money. That's why the wealthy hardly ever lose their wealth.

Take Nigeria. The currency (Naira), was devalued 87% from 2015. If you had bank savings, you basically lost half your money.


But if you invested in, say a farm, food prices rose to match devaluation. Wise investments protect you from devaluations!

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 basic difference between the wealthy and the poor is that the wealthy manage their time, while the poor manage their money.


Since time is more valuable than money, the wealthy are investing what always give them the best return on investment.

Don't announce your plans. To do so is to supply enemies with the ammunition they need to shoot down your plans.


Announce your victories instead. Be like a cook. A cook doesn’t ring a bell when he is cooking. The bell is rung when the food is ready.

Dont spend time thinking about your enemies. Let them think of you. Spend yours thinking about your progress.

Have the mentality that you are on earth to achieve great things and they are on earth to talk about those great things you will achieve.

Satan sends haters your way as temptation for you to shift your focus from your purpose to your haters. Don't fall for it.


What you focus on multiplies in your life. If you focus on success it will manifest. So don’t waste your focus on haters.

Not everyone who loses an argument to you does so because they are wrong. Sometimes it is because they want to keep you as a friend.

If you are always right, it is not because you are smarter than your friends. They are just more mature than you!

Champagne is expensive, but is not necessary to life like water. Ordinary things are often more valuable than expensive ones.

Water might be ‘ordinary’, but without it, there is no life. Value the ordinary people in your life. They make life easier.

Rich friends are like champagne. Nice to drink. But ordinary people, like gatemen, security guard, house helps, are like water. Vital to life.


They secure you as you sleep. They raise your children as you work. Appreciate them. Dont underrate them!

Money is only half the value in life. Relationships are the better half. Don’t chase only money. Allow other good things in life to catch up with you.


The most wasted life, is the life spent only chasing money. Money can’t love you. People can .

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.

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.

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.

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!

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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!
