SHOW UP!




Do you know that 80% of successes are recorded by people who show up? 

I got my first secular TV job which I love so much by not only showing up but applying the waiting game  principle. The producer of the show was away in Lagos for a meeting and was scheduled to return to Abuja at 2 pm to promote the new show. 

Prior to my meeting with the producer, I had looked up to the said individual as a mentor in the journalistic field and it was going to be my dream come through to finally meet the producer. The producer didn't show up at 2pm but at 11pm, I waited for extra 9 hours to compliment my "showing up & Waiting game" approach towards life. 

We eventually exchanged pleasantries after the producer's recording session and the producer was so pleased to meet me but was particularly moved by my zest and sacrifice. I left the studio on the eve of the next day at about 12:45am. That meeting launched me into multifaceted media.

The initial plan was give me a spot as an intern in the organization but the director of the show who was already getting to know me, evaluated my level of experience in the media field which I had acquired from the former TV station i worked with. He offered me the position of the floor manager at the spot without second guessing and four months later, I rose to becoming the Assistant Producer of that new show!



          Anchor Scripture: {Mathew 7:7}
"Seek and you will find."


Seeking entails being present at the situation room. It is not enough to just pray about it and spend numerous hours thinking it through, ensure you show up!  Showing up yields unprecedented miracles.

Show up at that press conference or interview, submit that proposal, step out of the comfort of your bedroom and try new things, make new friends and seek for creative ways to turn that boring situation of yours into a lively one. Be intentional about it because the heavens help those who help themselves.

And eventually, you'll thank yourself for backing that little faith of yours with a corresponding action.

Have a blessed day Fam!

PLEASE

Image
The word "please" is a subtle cry for mercy. It expresses one's vulnerability. The phrase 'please' has reinstated businesses, work, cordial and intimate relationships. In the same vain, it has clouded the thinking abilities of individuals, thus handicapping them. These "handicap" could entail compromising to illegitimate business deal, subscribing to peer pressure, or in serious occasion, giving up one's moral values. Some have contacted venereal diseases because of please . It is true that vulnerability is a bridge to connection. But never forget that vulnerability is one of the ways. There are others means of attaining it. Connection in this context means legitimate links to self purpose. Please can be used in harmless or harmful contexts. Stay woke! Ensure you're using the term "please" to achieve a purpose, not to attack a prey. If the eventual result of the use of your "please'' doesn't align with godly re...

UNEQUALLY YOKED

Who is the unequally yoked person? One who is unable to partner with you at a particular level. Failure to disassociate yourself from them will lead to sinking and eventual drowning. Anchor Scripture: { Proverbs 27:17 } "Iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.'' Ab initio, humans were not wired to live in isolation, they were wired to have companions who will help them in their daily lives. Everyone who accrues successes at different level was helped. Iron sharpens iron. Never been heard of that iron sharpen plastic or vice-versa, the iron will remain blunt and will be unable to operate at the realm it was designed to, while the plastic will be dissected into bitty parts. "Do not become partners with those who do not believe, for what fellowship does light have with darkness?"( 2 Corinthians 6:14- NET Bible ) This Biblical portion is one to ponder upon. Partnerships , Relationships , and Courtships are sensitive SHIPS that shouldn...
