Life is about growth. If you are not growing, then what are you doing?

Your Time Will Come

by Bright Osadiaye, posted in Personal Development, Personal Growth

There is time for everything. Do not get frustrated. Pay attention to what you are doing. Keep doing what you are doing, no matter how hard. If you do not give up on yourself, if you do not give up on your dreams, your time will come.

In the words of Maulana Wahiduddin Khan, ‘A definite span of time has been appointed for all of nature’s happenings. Nothing can come into being or frutify before that appointed time.’

‘No matter what is going on in your life, if you do not say no to yourself, if you do not say no to your dreams, if you just keep doing, your time will come.

If you don’t listen to doubters, if you don’t listen to naysayers, if you ignore the noise, if you keep working, if you keep loving your work, your appointed time will come.

Do not give up. Do not say, ‘I can’t do this. This is too hard for me. It is not for me.’ Instead, focus all your energy, all your attention, and all your time on what is possible.

When you focus on what is possible, things become easier to deal with.

Before I leave you, when things are tough, remember why you are doing it.

Why You Can’t Attract Great People Into Your Life

by Bright Osadiaye, posted in Personal Development, Personal Growth

People are people. They want what you want. They are not going to live with what you can’t live with.

People are attracted to greatness. They are attracted to love. They are attracted to happiness. And they are attracted to growth.

People don’t want to hang around stagnation. They don’t want to have anything to do with fear, with self-doubt, and anger.

If you want people to come to you, if you want to bring the best into your life, you must act like you are, not as you are not.

Do not fake who you are. Be real. Know what you want in life, what you are going to do to get it, and what you are not going to do to get it, no matter what.

People are comfortable with people who treat them well, who listen to them. So if you want people to come to you, you must learn how to be a good listener, not a great talker.

Why is that? Because we want to feel that we are important. If no one is listening, people stop talking.

And if you want to attract other people to you, you must acknowledge the fact that your way of doing things is not the only way. People have their ways of doing things.

People won’t give you there best if your way is the only way of getting things done. You will get a lot done through others when you treat them well. The question is, ‘What are you doing to attract the best into your life?’
