'SIR, I HAVE NO MAN' VS 'WHY SIT WE HERE TILL WE DIE?'

  SIR, I HAVE NO MAN' VS 'WHY SIT WE HERE TILL WE DIE? Written By Felix Olokede Two men were going through turbulent periods in different seasons of their lives. One said 'Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool' and the other asked 'Why sit we till we die?' … A problem with two different perspectives. One allowed reality to happen to him, the other happened to reality. Men who are after the order of 'Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool' sees nothing wrong in playing the blame game and shifting the cause of their predicament to a circumstance, an environment or someone. They would rather affirm to themselves that the presence of challenges is not their fault instead of delving into how the challenge came into existence and devising a way out of it by wisdom. While the people after the order of 'Why sit we here till we die?' are interested in seeing problems and challenges solely from the viewpoint of accepting responsibility. The produc

THE CROSS/TREE/POLE

  THE CROSS/TREE/POLE. Written By Orji Victor CP Some school of thoughts believe that our Lord Jesus was crucified on a cross, while some others believe it was on a pole, tree or stake. Well, whichever one, Jesus Christ died being staked on a piece of wood for all to see.  The place of His death is not that all important to me but the person that died is what is important to me. I said so because the place of His death (Cross/Tree) has been in use as the last punishment for people who committed treason (coup plotters and criminal acts against the state) and criminals even before Jesus was born. Jesus was not the first person to be crucified there, no wonder, theere were 2 others with Him on that day. Brethren, if we are looking for a symbol for Christianity, it shouldn't be the cross because it didn't start with Jesus, it has been there as the last place for criminals to be executed. Saying the cross is our symbol, are we criminals or are we under punishment? We are free and li

  Raising Money For A Business Is Hard, How To Convince Investors Hello Friends, Raising Honey For A Business Is Hard. Some people have been rejected by banks and investors so many times they’ve lost count. Still, every day, deals are being closed. And that’s because one of the key ways investors and banks make money is by giving money to entrepreneurs and businesses for interest or return. But that doesn’t mean getting their money is easy. The reason is: investors and banks are obsessed and influenced by ONE thing. That thing is called “risk”. Investors want to be sure that they’re going to make money (and not lose money) by investing in your business. And it's YOUR JOB to convince them.

What I’m about to teach you can significantly improve your odds of raising funds for your business. A quick announcem

Finding Someone To Marry

  Finding Someone To Marry  Written By - Pastor Sam Adeyemi The challenge I see a lot of the time is that young people are looking for the ideal man or woman. Your ideal husband or wife is already married, that is why some people fall in love with married people.  A lot of the time, this guy or lady who looks perfect was not like that when he/she got married. If in your vision your husband is a CEO, can you recognize him when he is not yet a CEO?  When Pastor Nike and I got married, we were not the way we are now. It has taken investment for us to get here. I have issues with guys who are turning bachelorhood into an institution, there are lots of people around town who are not getting married because they want to own a mansion, have some money and cars before they settle down, they already have a job and they are waiting to have an ideal financial situation before marriage, I am telling you, if you are in that situation, you have been deceived.  What a lady needs is not a perfect man

This Is How To Jump

This Is How To Jump Written By John Paul , CEO For Smallstarter It’s not easy to give up a job with a steady income. Life is easier when you know for sure that money will come in at the end of the month. The money may not be enough, but it’s something. But what if you want more? What if you believe you are worth more in the open market than what your boss or employer currently pays you? What if you believe your job is limiting your potential? What if you want to work on your own ideas and choose when you work, where you work, and how you work? How do you make the move from employment to entrepreneurship without bringing financial and psychological hardship upon yourself? All of these are very important questions. That’s why the decision to quit a job and build your own business is one of the hardest decisions in the world. I made the same decision nearly 10 years ago. It was a very difficult decision, but I’m glad I followed my heart. And since then, I have worked with dozens of passio
