People Who Are Successful Are Like Teabags?

God has put so much in you that if you are
willing to capture it, nothing can stop you. There
is not enough darkness in the world to extinguish
the light God has put within you.
The light of God’s vision in your heart is so
strong and bright that all the darkness of the
planet, all the darkness of people’s opinions, and
all the darkness of past failures can never put it
out.
Success in life requires perseverance.
Perseverance actually means “to bear up under
pressure.” I like this quote from Eleanor
Roosevelt, which actually applies to all people:
“A woman is like a teabag.
You never know how strong it is until it’s in hot
water.” Here’s a similar analogy: People who are
successful are like teabags. When they get in
hot water, they make tea. When life squeezes
them, they don’t become angry; they do
something constructive with the pressure.
They persevere under it and use it for their own
benefit. People who have vision are stronger
than the pressure life brings.
I have discovered that sometimes you don’t get
the scent from the rose until you crush it. In
order to draw the fragrance of His glory from
your life, God will allow you to be put under
stress.

What are you feeding on?

In life, growth is very important, and to grow the body needs some basic nutrient. The kind of nutrition or malnutrition the body undergoes will determine the kind of growth you will have. For many reasons people decide on different diet plans, keto, vegan, paleo, gluten-free diet just to name a few. These diets work the wonders they are designed to work. In the same way, whatever we ingest will determine what our output will be. Most times we are the product of what we take in. like someone on a diet who is cautious about their weight and eager to maintain a good shape, the result you will produce depends on what you feed on. As you are already guessing I'm not talking about the literal food we eat. What are you listening to? What kind of books do you read? What movies, TV shows, and series are you watching? Are they adding value to you or taking value away from you? Pause! Ask yourself this question again and answer sincerely, what are you feeding on? What you consistently feed o...

Rethink your circle

Who are those in your circle? What type of friends do you keep?  There's a saying that goes thus "the average of 5 people you walk with sums up your life" we could agree to disagree on this, your choice! but it still remains true. Interestingly sometimes you have a little setback or challenge and you are scared to share with your friends!! does that even make sense?  You be thinking in your head, If I tell them they will laugh and make jest of me  and they will not even take it serious no matter what.  What kind of a circle is that? Friends who can't relate with your situation, who can't understand and sympathize with you in whatever situation you are in, they are not friends at all, they don't merit that title.   You need to redefine what friendship is. There are people you talk to they don't necessarily have to be your friends. And then you have the true people who actually care who you can call friends. Most times you get it all wrong assuming because y...
