We grow as we go and we change with each passing day, and while we may be burdened by how far we still have to go, we should be encouraged and grateful for how far we've come. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/creed516/message

One of the easiest ways to get lost is to assume everyone in your direction is going to the same destination as you. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/creed516/message

We can choose to pay now and play later, or play now and pay later, but one thing is certain we all have to pay for that which we really desire. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/creed516/message

When the amount of pressure coming at us from all sides is greater than our level of confidence and faith in ourselves, we begin to find ourselves in really unpleasant positions. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/creed516/message

Seeing people succeed in their paths should not draw you to abandon your path, instead it should encourage you to succeed and press further in yours. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/creed516/message

We very often measure people by what we think they should do and how well we think they should perform, but we really should be looking at what their true potentials are and what they can do. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/creed516/message

Good things can sometimes be bad things when not properly adopted or integrated into already existing processes. More money is good but can crumble your business when not used properly. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/creed516/message

Progress is important, but we should not let the plans for big progress keep us from making any progress at all. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/creed516/message

Colors are meant to beautify our perspective to things and life, but somehow we have been taught that colors are a representation of the quality of our lives. It's time to unlearn the lies. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/creed516/message

We all are victims of the teaching that our society instilled in us, just as it was passed down to them but it is our responsibility to unlearn the lies and learn new truths. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/creed516/message

We all store our files in the clouds using gadgets so we could always get them back when we need them, but where do we store our memories? where do we keeps those moments we never want to forget?

Just like a stream which keeps getting renewed because it flows from a source, likewise should our mind and thoughts be continuously renewed so it doesn't store junks but instead produces new ideas and innovations.

There’s a lot happening all around us every moment, and it’s easy to drown in the midst of it all, but in that moment is when we need to take a deep breath and relax to stay afloat.

Walking ahead of the pack means that you will have to walk alone sometimes, seeing things that no one else sees and being exposed to threats before anyone else, finding strength in that solitude is no easy task but therein lay the strength of a leader.

It’s not enough to just be awake, let’s stay awake living through everything happening all around, that we not have lived without truly being awake!

“Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never harm me.” They can call you anything they want, but as long as you define yourself just the way you want, then every other perspective will always wash away.

Evasive maneuvers are also an important part of every battle strategy, Victory is certainly assured but it comes easier when we know just exactly how to fight those battles and what weapons to use.

Surely, when sight is gone there is a measure of disorientation that follows, but even much more are we lost when we can not see beyond our immediate circumstances; hence above all else, never lose your ability to see beyond now.

“Make hay while the sun shines” is a saying that will never lose its potency; as the festive season draws nearer it is important that we prepare for the looming extended foreseeable famine in the coming month!

A cup can either be half full or half empty, a door can be half-opened or half-closed, and roses can have thorns or thorns can have roses; it all depends on who is telling the story, so we all get to choose which narrative our stories will take.

There is something in all of us that makes us unique in every way possible, but our uniqueness should not be the excuse for our shortcomings; we should learn to live comfortably in our skin while delivering our best to the world!

We all carry a measure of treasure around in our relationships, interactions, resources but somehow we are blinded to them because they do not appear in the ways we expect them to; it is to reevaluate the things we have so much trivialized.

The roads are rough and thing are tough, life itself is hard in more ways than one. Leaving your comfort zone is hard, but so is staying broke; so choose your hard deliberately.

To every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction that follows; there's little anyone can do about the equation, but we all have the power to choose the kind of reaction we give to any action or situation we find ourselves.

We all have our strengths and weaknesses, but we will never truly know how strong we are or how strong we can be until we have others who can amplify our strength and shield our weaknesses. There is much strength in the company of many.

A lot of us dread the sheer thought of Pain, the simplest semblance of it sends cold chills down our spines; it is the one thing we all hope, no we all pray to live without; but have you ever really thought about what life would be without PAIN.

How often have you been told you are the leader of tomorrow? How many times have you believed and hoped that one day, you will be fine? “Oba Lola” is a short piece written from the local perspective of how a young child had believed the name his mother addresses him with, forgetting that words enough can not write ones life unless corresponding action is taken.

Being liable to errors is part of being human, but those errors and mistakes don't define who we are or what we truly stand for. So just as you would hope for a second chance, be willing to give it to another person.

We are always in the middle of so many things, and usually we get overwhelmed by the sheer size of it all, so much so that we often forget to Breathe.

There is no shackle that bounds a man that he has not been given a key to unlock it, to free himself, to rid himself of the very thing that holds him down.

Don't throw away your perfectly made plan simply because there was a twist, don't dump your well thought out ideas simply because there was a bend in the road. Pitfalls show you the diverse possibilities in the journey to your destination.

They may not see your efforts, they may not see your works, but they will see your result, and that's all that matters. So stay hidden, don't be in a rush to come out, don't be nervous to show yourself, in due time you will; but for now, stay HIDDEN.

Don't lose yourself in the process of hoping or loving who someone else is. Don't lose yourself in the race of catching up to someone else, be you, love you, embrace all of you, just as you are. Because when it's all said and done, when all else is taken away, what is left is who you really are.

Those who have gone ahead leave footprints behind, and they are not meant for us to walk in, but to show us the way and the possibilities that lay ahead.

It's really easy for us to lose sight of who we really are in the web of expectations spun by those around us. So maybe it's time to look into the mirror once again.

It's not enough to just have the idea, or change your thoughts, the corresponding action is what makes all the difference and adds meaning to all the effort.

We can be so much more when we loose the chains and shackles that has kept us bound, but we can only be free to the extent our minds can conceive.

We all have a measure of creativity in us, but snuffled by society, silenced by culture and sealed by a need to be normal, we've learnt to conform to the ordinary; but we can be so much more.

Our thoughts are the base for the Ideas that shape our lives, and indeed just as our thoughts are created by things we have experienced, so also our ideas are usually a result of those experiences.

It is said that the human mind is not capable of an original thought but still the quality of our thoughts shapes the quality of our hearts, so we should take heed to the mind that churns out those thoughts.

Happiness is a choice and it is your sole responsibility to choose that which you desire, just as you can choose to be angry when some wrongs you, you can just as much l decide to be happy.

Patience they say, is indeed a virtue and it will cook a rock soft; but surely patience is not laziness, it is active, it is persistent and consistent, it doesn't give up and it doesn't quit.

Sometimes it take a little more push, a little more effort, even maybe an extra mile for the story to turn around, so don't let go too soon.

As much as we feel entitled to people, things, and even our emotions, but when it begins to upset our peace, then it's time to Let Go

Going through life we get bruised and wounded along the way, but in the place of healing they soon become scars, if only we would open them up and not sweep then beneath the covers.

Some of the best ideas we ever had came while we were kids, but we grew older and we lost the part of ourselves that believes and trusts without question. If only we could become kids again.

Pride they say, comes before a fall, and the bigger the ego, the harder the fall! Own your skills and know your worth, but let it not alter your perception of others.

Not getting it the first time doesn't make you a failure, just keep at it and work it over and over! Sometimes you just need a little more push to get it done.

There will always be one thing or the other to stand in your way when you are chasing a dream or passion, and you'll always have a thousand and one reasons to give up, but you need only one reason to continue! Today's podcast is titled *Obstacles* and I have a brother (Onyeka Solomon) share his own experiences on how he made it through his fair share of obstacles so far!
