VICTIM OF MY MIND pt1




 Few years ago while pastoring a small branch of a church, A lady met me for counselling ,her issue was about a solution for her abusive relationship, After hearing all her
 story and what she had to say , the only solution that I could proffer  was for her to opt out of the relationship..

It was quite an interesting one because when I told her to end it,she got angry at me for saying that,her reaction was surprising to me ,she wanted a reason to keep staying in the relationship not a solution. her issue was a mind issue, the guy has her mind caged with manipulation, He kept her where he wanted her to be.

The guy will heat her but blame it on  having anger issues, cheat on her but blame it on her for not being available, the list goes on,her real issue was her mind .she was a prisoner of her own mind.

This case Here is similar to that of  countless others, who are being imprisoned by their own mind,

 1. What  controls your mind controls your life. you're basically a product of what goes on in your mind. you  cannot be different from what happens in your mind.

2. Poverty, lack,frustration and failure are fruits, ,the real problem is the root which is The mind .interestingly there many Christians who believe to be wealthy is a sin and prevents one from making heaven, All this is  because  one over zealous pastor  somewhere that  knows half truth put this in their minds. For Christ sake  how can such persons to  dream of wealth.

3.You are transformed to conform with what you feed your mind on. You ultimately become what you constantly  feed your mind on. A person become a lawyer or engineer not by the wig or overall he wears but by the information imputed into his or her mind.

4.You view every situation from the standpoint of your mind. Your mind determine how you view every challenge that comes your way.one person can see victory and blessings in a situation, while all that another person maybe seeing is death and defeat in the same situation. the difference is the conditioning of the mind.

5.you mind magnates what occupies it,one of the  greatest mysteries of life is the law of attraction, which states that what you constantly think of will ultimately gravitate towards you. If you desire good things, thinks it and you will see it.

6.who you permit into your mind controls life,the greatest access you can give to anyone is access to your mind . pay attention to what you read,who you listen to, the church you attain. The seminars and conference you go to.

How To Deal With Criticism

Topic: **DEALING WITH CRITICISM* . I Recently witness a pathetic leadership blunder. where a suppose leader was engage in a fight with a person that was criticising him and with the various victimisation of people across the country for criticising people in power, it was obvious to me that many leaders have a lot of deficits in basic leadership skils. As unfair as this may sound one of the pain in leadership is criticism, you seem never to escape it as a leader, no matter how good you are, people will still criticize you. It can either be constructive or destructive but you can't escape me if you are leader. To be a leader is to be frontier, and you cannot be a frontliner without being stoned at or without suffering one criticism or the other. So to be a leader and you don't want to be criticised is having an unrealistic expectation, as a ripe fruit you should naturally expect stones to be thrown at you, every successful leader knows that no matter how good you are someone w...

Leadership In A Fast Changing World

          I remember the closing speech of the CEO of Nokia, Stephen Elop, during the press conference that announced Microsoft’s acquisition of Nokia. He ended his speech saying; “...we didn’t do anything wrong, but somehow, we lost.” Upon this conclusion, he and the entire management team publicly wept. You don't have to be wrong to be out, all you need is to lag behind in a fast moving world like ours. Nokia did nothing but they were too busy doing activities while the world was busy "jetting". They lost the company and billions that would have been made and future relevance, they lost big! Activity is not a sign of progress. You can be actively going round circles. This is the case of many leaders today, they keep doing what they know how to, what they are used to and still feel they are in the market, meanwhile the world has long left them behind.   A leader who is not getting updated daily will soon go off the market; updating prevents outdat...

VICTIM OF MY MIND pt2

You can never be different from what goes on in your mind, a man is a reflection of his dominant thoughts. Your mind is either a lid to your progress or an acceleration for your progress. The mind is influence by 1) THE FAMILY: there's 90% livelihood that you will end up with similar life experience with your parent if there is no mind shift, if your parent only think and speak lack ,it then starts to form your mindset which you'll eventually toll that path  unless there is a deliberate mind shift. 2,THE ENVIRONMENT: Do you ever wonder why children and people who grow up in slums tend to be more violent, This is  because that's what their environment teaches them,the  interactions that goes on in your environment, the life style has major role in forming your mindset, we are largely a product of our environment. 3,EDUCATION:  Education is and an institutionalised system of mind shift, the kind and level  of education you get will determine how you v...
