*WHAT BRINGS HAPPINESS*
3 weeks ago, I wrote on the topic: “Tear Out This Myth in 2019”. I said in that post that the statement: “Money cannot buy happiness” is a bu****it cooked up by a group of broke persons; and that you should never live that lie!

Many persons have since been asking me questions and inviting me to re-frame my stand or tell them what actually brings happiness.

In this post, I desire to state categorically 3 things that bring happiness. They are as below:

*(1) HEALTH:* good health is a very critical asset to your mission of being happy. Have you ever seen anyone who has a critically sick member of his/her family that is not worried? Tell me?
When we are sick our happiness mood is affected. When our child is sick or our spouse is sick or our parent is sick we are seriously troubled too.

Take care of your health! Eat healthily! Play Healthily; exercise healthily; avoid taking damaging substances that can destroy your health! (this includes make-up materials). Live in a clean environment to promote good health. With the above, you are tuned to a happy life!

*(2) MONEY:* Money is good! The lack of money can be dangerous! Poverty is the root of all evil!
Your income also affect your level of happiness. This has been scientifically proven! If you are able to take care of your needs and you are also able to contribute generously to the community and help in a little way to contribute to a worthy course, you experience a moment or a level of happiness.

Oh yeah, the basic things or necessity of life are able to be in your reach with money! We are not talking about been a billionaire here. but your ability to have money and make money daily to take care of your needs and to contribute to the welfare of others brings happiness!

Take care of your personal finance. Believe me, this brings you happiness!

*(3) FRIENDS:* having good friends can influence your happiness! Take care of your relationships. Do not let them be strained! Do all that is in your power to treat everyone that comes your path as humanly as possible. This can bring you happiness!

Don’t wait to see or know the title of a man or a woman before you can be courteous to that person!

Be respectful to all human creatures. Treat each person that comes your way fairly and with human dignity!

Above all cherish your friends. Never ever treat your friends BADLY. No matter what happens ALWAYS BE A FRIEND! This influences your happiness.

I affirm this: These 3 things can bring your happiness:

(1) Health
(2) Money
(3) Friends

My happiness is without any iimitation. I want yours to be without limits too.

*TEAR OUT THIS MYTH IN 2019!!!*

Have you ever heard this before: “Money Cannot buy Happiness” This is a myth!
Tear it out of your life this 2019! Don’t ever believe it! It is bu****it!

Broke people brought about this statement to console themselves! If you don’t think money can buy happiness, you’re living a lie that broke people came up with! Simple.
“Riches may not bring happiness, but neither does poverty.”
I know a lot of many people who are miserable because of their being broke.

Making money is awesome because it gives you choices. It gives you freedom. It gives you control. It buys you time.
“Money gives you choices and buys you time and this time can translate to freedom to pursue other personal growth, the freedom of helping others and do a whole lot of things that can bring you a whole lot of happiness.”
Money can buy food, clothing, warmth, shelter and pay medical bills—if you know how to be happy without those things, let me know.

Make no mistake, in our age and time money is important!

Money is the root of ALL GOOD!

Learn to make money and work hard and smart to make good money. You will stay happy and you will contribute meaningfully to the development of the world by giving back to your community.
In fact, it is selfish to not fulfil your potentials by only trying to make yourself comfortable instead of making more and giving back to the community from your abundance!

Good morning and enjoy your weekend.

JUST JUMP

I recall this class given by one of my trainers , Darren Poke:

There was a man who had always dreamed of sky-diving.

Since he was a young boy he had wanted to do it and eventually he booked himself in for the big event.

He completed the mandatory training on the day and was feeling nervous, but excited.

“This is it, this is it.” He repeated to himself over and over again as the plane took off.

As the plane rose higher in the air, he could feel more fear enter his body and he began to visibly shake.

Then the moment came when it was time for him to make the leap from the plane.

He got to the edge of the door and just as he was about to launch himself, he backed away.

The instructors had seen this all before, so they encouraged him back to the gaping door and started a countdown for him.

“5… 4… 3… 2… 1… now!”

But again he backed away from the edge.

“Just jump!” the instructors implored.

But the man just shook his head and sat down disconsolately.

The other skydivers jumped from the plane, leaving the man behind, with a lone instructor to keep him company.

“Are you sure that you don’t want to jump?” the instructor asked.

“I want to, but I just can’t.” the man said mournfully.

“Are you sure? Why not just give it one more try?”

“I want to, but I just can’t.”

“You told me that you’ve been looking forward to this moment for your entire life. You know that you’ll regret it until you do it.”

“I know.” replied the man, his eyes welling with tears.

He never got another chance.

And the instructor was right. He regretted it for the rest of his life.

I don’t know what your dreams are, but I want to encourage you today to jump when you get the chance to fulfill them.

If you’ve always dreamed of starting your own business doing what you love…

Just jump!

If you’ve wanted to propose to your long-time sweetheart for a long time…

Just jump!

If you’ve had aspirations to return to college and get some extra qualifications…

Just jump!

If you’ve always wanted to write a book or start a blog…

Just jump!

If you know that you should return to church and rekindle your relationship with God…

Just jump!

Yes, you’ll be afraid.

Yes, the emotions may be almost overwhelming when you get to the edge of the door.

But if you don’t jump now, you may never get another chance and you risk living with regret for the rest of your life.

It is a beautiful day, a day that is full of many possibilities. Leave yesterday alone and JUST JUMP into today and make it super fantastic!

*HOW TO BE HAPPY AND STAY HAPPY*

I want to share with you some tips to be happy and stay happy that I have discovered from my interactions with the universe in recent times. They are as follows:

1. Remember who you are. Remember we are here to live. You are a living being. Life is actually very good. You are created to be a joyous person. to savor freely the goodness of the universe in which you are born. The sun, the stars, the moon, the waters of the universe, the trees, the birds, the rains, the mountains, etc.. all of these elements are created for you to add to the fun. Tap into this knowledge and it will improve your happy state.

2. Find the right companion for you. this would help you to learn about patience and communication.

Happiness comes from giving.

We are here to connect with persons, things and moments that remind us of the things that are organic of ourselves.

3. Choose wisely the persons you want to recognize yourself in. Surround yourself with people who are organically happy persons. Not people who use material things to induce happiness (like drugs, wines, fast cars, et all).

With these organically happy persons you will get inspired to be within your happy zone. They will also push you harder to realize your dreams and happy self.

These will also push you to be outside your comfort zone.

4. Know what your dream is. This would give you the reason to be here on earth. It will let you also know that despite the pains and sufferings you experience here on earth there is still something in your heart that you need to hold on to to actualize. T

The above you must do without neglecting the spiritual enlightenment.

5. Get rid of the fears that limit your life. There are many fears that could hold you back: the fear of failure; the fear of making a mistakes; the fear of loosing your love or those you love; the fear of not knowing what the future holds; and the fear of the judgement of others.

These limitations would change your life for the worse! You must work at having absolute power to overcome these fears mentioned above!

6. Love without limits! Don’t judge people on their physical appearance; don’t judge people with their past. Although you would meet many sycophants around your journey here on earth, you can overcome them with your vibration energy of love without limits.

Be Happy and Stay HAPPY

To your life of great happiness and joy!

*IMPOSSIBILITY IS A STATE OF MIND!*

Two individuals, in recent times, have really made a huge impression on me, which affirms the heading of this post: *IMPOSSIBILITY IS A STATE OF MIND*

The first personality is *Nick Vujicic* – the armless and legless inspirational speaker-extraordinarie! And of recent a man called *Ibrahim Hamadtou*.

Ibrahim Hamadtou is an Egyptian table tennis player. He was one of the remarkable stories of the 2016 Rio Paralympics.

At the age of 10, Ibrahim lost both of his arms in a train accident, so you would think that table tennis is an odd choice of sport for him.

But this extraordinary man was not to be daunted, holding the table tennis banner with his teeth and serving by throwing the ball into the air with his toes! I watched all his matches closely and I was so marveled.

If you aren’t impressed, try it at home.

It took him three years to learn this skill, but his persistence has paid off and Ibrahim was able to proudly represent his country. Despite losing both of his matches in Rio, he won the respect of his opponents and the wider sporting fraternity.

Impossibility is a state of mind! Nothing is Impossible. I repeat, nothing is impossible!

You may think that you have problems.

You may believe that your aspirations are impossible to achieve.

You may feel like giving up.

When you do, remember *Ibrahim Hamadtou*. Remember, *Nick Vujicic*.

Remember that impossible is merely a state of mind.

You too can break the records by breaking the impossibility mind-set of yours!

It is not impossible to be that who you are meant to be.

There is no witch, hunting you down! There is no devil that can stop your mind to break records. The only visible obstacle I know is your mind…

*To your life of no limitations!*

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

I’ve met a lot of people over the years who are yet to start taking action on their goals, dreams or visions about life.

You see life is too short. Too short to let a day go to waste.

I don’t know what your situation is or what your aspirations for life are, but if you’re sitting around allowing life to float by, I have a question for you today:

What are you waiting for?

*(1) Are you waiting for permission to start?*
You don’t need it, just get started.

*(2) Are you waiting for the right circumstances to arrive?*
They may never come, you just need to take action.

*(3) Are you waiting until you have the energy?*
Doing the work would give you the energy that you need.

*(4) Are you waiting for a sign from God?*
I love God’s message to Abraham in Genesis 12:1, “…Go to the land I will show you.” God didn’t give him all of the details, just told him to get started and promised to guide him as he traveled.

*(5) Are you waiting to build up your courage so that you can overcome your fear?*
Again this will never happen by itself. Your courage builds as you achieve small milestones, giving you the capacity to take on larger tasks in the future.

*(6) Are you waiting for a green light?*
For successful people, the light is always green.

*(7) Are you waiting until it’s safe to start?*
People who make an impact on the world understand that it’s riskier to play it safe than it is to take what others would consider to be risks.

*(8) Are you waiting until everyone else agrees with your aspirations?*
Chances are, if you’re dreaming big enough, there will always be critics who disagree with you. Don’t let them hold you back from greatness.

I don’t know your situation, but I do know that sitting around won’t get you closer to your goals, but taking immediate action will.

Life keep moving with or without you. You ONLY get one shot at life, so let’s not waste another moment, let’s make progress today.

*What are you waiting for?*

There Was a Time

There was a time Kanu Nwankwo didn’t know how to play football.

There was a time Austin “Jay Jay” Okocha didn’t know how to kick football.

There was a Time Aliko Dangote was a poor man and didn’t know about business.

There was a time when LeBron James didn’t know how to play basketball.

There was a time when *Warren Buffett* knew nothing about investing.

There was a time when Albert Einstein was a dull boy and even his teacher told him he would be up to nothing.

There was a time when Eric Clapton had never picked up a guitar.

There was a time when Bill Gates didn’t have a clue about computers.

There was a time when Michael Phelps couldn’t swim.

They all started somewhere.

They found out what they could be great at and did the work required to fully develop their skills.

You can too.

“All of the world greats started somewhere. They found out what they could be great at and did the work required to fully develop their skills.” (Darren POKE)

You too can.

And hopefully there will be a time when you can look back and see how far you’ve come.

CONCEPTS + ACTIONS = RESULTS

All courses of action are risky,

so prudence is not in avoiding danger (it's impossible), but calculating risk and acting decisively. *Make mistakes of ambition and not mistakes of sloth*.

*Develop the strength to do bold things, not the strength to suffer*.

I encourage you to take some bold decisions today! The Universe always gives us what we request! You are not ordinary too, the universe would obey your command. You are built to be tough and survive. You will survive all adversaries and triumph! This power on comes to those who take action even in risk!
