Naija Motivation

Just about everyone has heard, and most people agree to some extent, that goal setting is a great way to get yourself where you want to go in life. If you feel you can’t seem to reach the life you know you were born to lead, then effective goals can be a great motivating force.

As you begin to set and achieve goals your self confidence will grow astronomically. But where do you start and what will make your goals worthwhile? This article will help you to start setting effective goals which will lead you where you want to go in life.

I am terming this week, the goals week and I will be sharing articles on Goals Setting and what it can do for anyone. The article I am sharing with you today, is one I wrote some years back and was able to pull out of my archives. I am sure you will enjoy it so much:

Happy Reading

“Would you get into a taxi and tell the cabby, ‘Driver anywhere’?

Would you wander onto the first plane you saw at the gate without bothering to ask where it is flying?

“Faith is the confident assurance that what we hope for is going to happen. It is the evidence of things we cannot yet see.” Heb. 11:1 (NLT)

Faith is a powerful force that the whole of humanity is yet to embrace. Most people have read the quoted verse several times yet it has not been imbibed into their lives. So many people can afford to live below their God-given potentials because they have not been able to have faith in themselves and all that the scripture has said concerning them.

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:

Part 1

Part 2

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.
