Good day guys. How are you doing today? I trust that you're having a great day. The first week in January is coming to end. The year has started out already and there's no time to wait anymore. Actions are essential now. That's what my article yesterday was about. So I'll quickly do a run through of yesterday's article.
I wrote about the importance of action and the importance of the time that those actions are taken.
Timing and precision are very essential in everything we do in life. When you do something is very essential in life. You don't just do the anytime. There's a time you're meant to do something. And if you do not do it at that particular time, it won't count or at best it will count little as compared to if you had done it at the right time.
Time controls everything in life. Time is what separates morning from night. It differentiates the different weeks, months and years. There are seasons in life. Different things for different seasons and times.
Life is designed by God to move in phases and time is what differentiates phases from each other. If we use farming as an example to explain timing. There's a time to clear the farmland, there's a time to cultivate and plant, there's time to water and there's a harvest time. If you miss the timing of any of these seasons, it has affected every other part of the sequence of farming greatly because you'll be behind the schedule. And because you're behind the schedule doesn't mean the seasons will wait for you. It doesn't respect anyone. It does not wait for anyone.
Access to the right information at the right time is very key to how much ahead you'll be in life. It is essential to have the right information about things. And also having the right information is not enough, you also need to have access to the resources that'll help you to execute with the information you got.
To be ahead in life, you need to have access to information. Everyone that is ahead in life is there because they had the right information at the right time and also had access to the resources that enabled them to execute with the information the got.
If they had not taken the actions necessary with the information they got, they would not be where they are now.
Having information without acting is just a waste because you're doing nothing with the information gotten.
There's also another end to it. Acting on an information you got at the right time at the wrong time is also not good because you won't have be on par with someone that acted on the information at the right time.
I'll use of the example of Bitcoin. If you had gotten adequate information about Bitcoin at the right time and acted on it. You would be a millionaire of not a billionaire now. But unfortunately most of us did not get enough information about it till recently and we're paying for the ignorance.
The summary of everything is that we must ensure that we look for information and trust God for the resources needed for to execute using the information.
Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.
Today, I'll be writing about impacting people regardless of whether you'll benefit from them or not.
There's a popular mindset that is everywhere and in my opinion it is not a good one at all. It is that you should only get around people tgat you'll benefit from. Also it is common now for people to only want to invest in people only because they'll benefit from them. Now the problem with this is that, you hinder yourself from impacting other people's lives.
This mindset should be kicked out because it is a toxic one. This life is once, and everyday is another opportunity to help people and impact lives. You should live everyday with the readiness to help everyone you meet without the expectations of necessarily recieving back from those you help.
Not everyone can and will repay whatever good you've done to people. So do you now because of that stop helping people. Personally, I believe that you should always anticipate the opportunities to help people. It's so beautiful to help people in their everyday activities, there's a kind of fulfilment and joy it brings to you.
The mindset of looking for people that will not just use you without impacting you in return makes you start looking for indicators that shows whether you'll benefit from them and most times you end up missing out on important relationship because you think they cannot impact you now.
That they cannot impact you now doesn't mean they will not be able to later in life. No one knows tomorrow, who you helped today might be the stepping stone to your success tomorrow.
The summary of everything is that you should be willing and ready to help everyone that asks for your help regardless of whether you'll benefit back or not.
Thanks for reading through. Have a great day.

We should help people though they can't do the same in return. We should be kind. Besides, God knows it.
