I have been saying so much about the human ability to bring to pass the desires of his heart and even achieve things people deem impossible.

There is a particular story in the bible, where God confirms this golden truth. While growing up, this happens to be a very popular story and those that grew up knowing My Book of Bible Stories, will still remember this vividly.

In Genesis, there is a part where the people were united and they set out to achieve a sole aim. What is this purpose? To build a tower that will reach heaven. They set out without anybody expressing doubt and God decided to act.

“No man is an island; No man stands alone.” This is a part of a saying that aptly reflects the importance of opening the mind to receive help in order to succeed.

Very few have made it to the top alone. Only few successful people made it to the top, on their own, without getting help from others.

So, whom can we turn to when we need help? Do not fret; there are a number of help lines available: God, People, and Written Works.

Wonder why some people could not even achieve an inch of what they dream of becoming? Blame it on pure dreaming and lack of setting goals for achieving their dreams.

Setting goals is a very significant part of success and positive accomplishments. It is like scaling a 20 feet building and marking early on what feet you would like to reach at this specific period.

The battle to annihilate procrastination is one that should be taken to the nook and crannies of the world. This is because procrastination has destroyed so many lives and is still destroying so much more. It makes people live below their potentials thereby maiming their destinies.

People blame so many things for not achieving their dreams but often overlook the impact of procrastination. This is because it is never noticed by anyone but the end result is always devastating.

When a man conceives an idea, he is motivated to start working on it immediately it is conceived. When the set time to begin working on the idea arrives, it becomes difficult for the man to set the sail and get the idea going.

Fear of what will befall him if he dares take a step, begins to creep into his mind. He will begin to ask himself doubtful questions of how he is going to cope while pursuing the idea, if he has the capacity to bring the idea into reality. So many questions that will cripple him will be asked.

There are so many times that we experience some setbacks in our lives and we feel it is the end of the world. We tend to dwell on those things that we forget to learn from them and move on with our lives. The story below, states clearly what our attitude to setbacks should be.

“I’m always looking for the right words to encourage my football(American) team. at Baylor University where I’ve been Head Coach for 14 years. I’ve used everything from praise to provocation to get the best out of my players. But once, the right encouraging words came from a team member.

I graduated from the University six years ago with a dream of being an entrepreneur, working from home. The dream became an obsession months after I graduated and I was looking for what to engage in to make my dream come true.

After discovering all I had to do to actualise my dream, I began to work on the dream, I started without hesitating. There were so many obstacles that would have made me to postpone when I will start, gut I didn’t focus on them.
