Naija Motivation

Well, today is the very day we all have been looking forward to for a while. I am so grateful to the Almighty God for sparing my life to see the break of a new dawn and to witness another of this very day. I look at my life and I see Him because left to me, it is impossible to do everything I have been doing. I see myself as the product of His grace. So many people came to the July 12th seminar and had to pinch themselves to believe they are seeing right, because who they were seeing does not tally with the person they thought is behind the screen doing all the wonders.

The fourth part of my story started immediately I completed my University education. Months before I finished, I was sure of what I wanted to do and my decision was to start as soon as possible. I made a crazy decision not to go for my Youth Service because I saw it as a waste of time and something that has nothing to do with my future.

It appears as a HUGE joke to all and sundry but it was as if fate was on my side because for like two years, my set’s couldn’t go for service due to so many factors that are inexplicable. During this period, I decided to get all the trainings I could get in order to be prepared for the future.

I hope you are enjoying my story. In case you have missed anyone, Visit the links below to read them:

The third phase of my life did not start after I finished school but before I did. The second phase ended the very moment I discovered myself and the latent potentials within me. That was when I decided NEVER to settle for less in my life and also to make the most of all that I have within me.

Big regards to all those that have bothered to comment on my first post in this series. That is so thoughtful of you and I hope you all enjoy today’s post, which takes us through the beginning and the end of the second phase in my life.

My journey through Lagos State University is a very interesting one. I termed this the second phase of my life because it brought me through a lot of realities that I will NEVER forget in my life. In fact, the transformation I experienced started while I was in LASU.

My friend, welcome to the story of my life. I have been thinking of what I was going to be sharing with all my friends and readers this special month of July and got the idea to share the important events that got me to where I am today and the great lessons I have learnt.

I am a firm believer that circumstances does not make a man but man should make his own circumstances. I will be sharing these stories right up to July 25th where I will culminate the series with a summary of all the important lessons I have learnt. I don’t know how many articles I will be writing, but I know I will have to write as many that will make the story to be complete.

It was an exhilirating experience over the weekend, when close to 70 people defy all odds to be at the Free Empowerment seminar organised by NaijaMotivation. The day started on a rainy note but that did not deter us to come together to create maximum impact.

The programme was billed to start by 11am but I was surprised to see people coming in as early as a little past 8am after I had gone to inspect the venue. Calls keep coming in from all over Lagos concerning the direction to the venue and I was sure we were in for a swell time together.

Even though we are Christians there are times we face extremities in our lives with health, employment, finances, family and other things but we must not be discouraged, depressed, frustrated, and angry with God, ourselves and others; because when we face extremities we will find that it is God’s opportunity to step in if we will continue to believe He is at work in our situations.
