"Any dummy can succeed,if he cares to know what it takes." Zig Ziglar
I have observed another success principle you can practice to become the person you long to meet, its an open secret called Goal Setting.
God gave us time so that everything will not happen at once. We have; 60 seconds in a minute,
60 minutes in a hour,
24 hours in a day,
7 days in a week,
28,29,30 or 31 days in a month,
10 years of a decade,
100 years of a century,
and 1000 years for a millennium.
Why is this so?
Its because success is mathematical, very simple.
Only the few who calculate their lives to success really succeed. Goal setting is a sure route to success.
God is so just that he gave everyone equal time from the Chairman of an organization to the gate keeper.
The quality of content in your mind and your ability to deploy skill at the right time with a corresponding accountability of your daily activities is directly proportional to your success in life.
If you cannot keep a record of your 24 hours, how can you account for your 24years?
As long as it is day, we must keep working, the night comes, when no man can work.
#BUSYNESS IS NOT EFFECTIVENESS#
'Busyness' is not business. Activity is not same with productivity in dissipation of energy. Majoring in minor and minoring in major never amounts to greatness.
That great man whom you want to meet that has no time to see you is indirectly telling you something, "the quality of my time is greater than yours". You have not invested quality efforts in your timing of your life, therefore, seeing you is a waste of time to me". Period!!!!
Friend, its a bitter reality but let it make you better. Discipline your disappointments and brace up. Never take disappointments personal. Instead, bite your lips, clench your fist and stamp your feet on the floor and get back to work.
Script your day and tick each achievement, looking back each day and mark yourself. To thyself be true says Shakespeare. The man after your case is the very person you see each time you look into the mirror.
The real you is invisible. The man in the mirror is your tent which hates anything serious but loves fun such as partying. If you play now,you will pay latter. However if you pay now, then you can play latter.
Every day count. Every moment is counting against or for you. Your respect for time is the prediction of your financial future. Therefore, set goals for the day, week, month and the year.
5years from now, I understood nothing about life, and in the next 5years to come, I should have achieved my aim and get married too. How time flies!!! My goal is to open an Entrepreneurship Institute and a consultancy firm firm some where around the World and probably some states in my country, Nigeria. Consultancy in different fields like Agriculture, branding, security and psychology maybe.
I no there are so many challenges in this country called Nigeria, but that doesn't mean I should or you should set a limit to your goals in life. There is nothing wrong if your dream does scare the hell out of you, that is the power of a dream, once you can see it, you can achieve it. Some of my goals is for my children to be tutored in Harvard, yes I mean Harvard because like I do say, Education is the only legacy you can give to your child and no one would be able to take that from them because knowledge acquired can't be taken no reduced.
SCRIPTURES TO BACK IT UP
"For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."...........Jeremiah 29:11(NIV)
BREAKDOWN
Every step in life and in business had already been ordered for us before we were even born. God does not reveal his plans to us all at once because we could not handle it. He gives us just glimpse through visions and dreams, but his plans for us all is to live a prosperous life.
….Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever........ Psalm 23: 5-6 (KJV)
BREAKDOWN
When you are in business you will develop haters, but it is important that you realize that you don’t have to handle your detractors yourself. God will bless you right in front of them. All you can do with your haters is pray for them.
When I think about how good God has been to me, my family business I could cry tears of joy for hours. I hope that these words from the Bible and my translation have blessed you in your business. I know the road is rough at times, but God’s got your back. He loves you. and if you give your heart him and let him use you to bless others, he will give you the desires of your heart.

You hit the nail on the head. Time management is a skill that must be inculcated in our day to day activities if we are going to make meaning out of our lives.
This to say that God has bestowed us with everything we need to succeed on earth as stated in 3John.1.2 - Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
Thanks so much for inspiring me.

Yes indeed. Many entrepreneurs confuse themselves with productivity by being busy. Instead, what really happens is that they are busy doing unnecessary things that never contribute to their business - thus ending up wasting plenty of time!

Exactly what they do. Engaging themselves in what they know nothing about or what the society doesn't even appreciate at all and diving into an investment they barely knows nothing about.

Good things are not always easy to plan or come by, it's just the level of determination and goal getting spirit (drive) that will determine how fast the result is going to be and with Christ by your side, everything shall come so easy.
