Odunayo Olajide Motivation

 Today's motivation is continuation of our discussions with achieving success on the right path. Today we are talking about two of the factors that lead to success, consistency and time. If you want success the right way, time is needed to achieve it. If you want success the right way, consistency is also needed to achieve it.  Many youths of this generation want success by doing something one time and it gets successful that one time. But that is not how principle of success works. When you are consistent on something, it means you keep doing it continuously. There may be results which is small when looking at it daily basis, but I tell you, give it more time, you will see that the accumulated results of success has led to a big and remarkable achievement.  Many big companies we hear of today, also had to be consistent before they achieved the success we are seeing them with today.  The way the world works, especially when you want God to be the One who has blessed ...

 Today's motivation is to remind us about the olden days teaching of the elders that nowadays, a lot of people don't use the principle anymore. Nowadays you hear people use quotes like, don't work hard, work smart. And while growing up, what was planted on our hearts was there is no success without working hard. Imagine the contrary quotes condemning hard work now. Nowadays, lots of people even youths want fast lane to achieve success, many people now don't want hard work, they are all looking for the smart way to success. And these smart ways are ways that lack integrity, they are ways that lack morals, they are ways that make other people cry for you to be successful or even cause you pains because of the many rituals you have to do to get the success without labour or hard work.  Today's motivation is to return us back to right principles of achieving success. And if peradventure you are already doing hard work, today's motivation is to encourage you that you...

 Our motivational quotes are for keeping us on the right track even in a world that there are several options that want people to leave the rightful path to success and follow dubious ways and shortcuts to achieve success.  Real success has its route, it takes hard work, it takes consistency, it takes diligence, it takes perseverance, it takes endurance, discipline and high level of integrity to get real success. Any route that doesn't maintain integrity is not the way to success. Any route to success that doesn't support hard work is not the way to real success. It's fake success. Such type of success doesn't inspire younger generations to do right. When you choose to achieve your success on the right path, you become an inspiration to people who also want to be successful. That it is possible to stay on the right path to achieve success.  I watched a video today how young boys were being initiated into cultism because they want fame and money, they are hip hop artists...

  If anyone has noticed the trend of our discussions for days now, you will see it is like taking a difficult thing and making it look easy to deal with. That is same thing about our topic today. We are taking a difficult situation that many people may not even be able to survive from and we are bringing out glory from it.  At all times, the road to success is a rough road. There are many things that may want to discourage you and even send you back from pursuing your goals and ambitions, but never give up. Some people because they cannot do what you are doing, they feel intimidated by your strength and instead of putting down their ego to learn from you, they start throwing stones, it's not physical stones, by saying stones, it means bad treatments, disrespect, talking down at you, saying wrong things about you that can hurt you or make you feel bad. Today's motivation, we are saying, don't allow those stones destroy you. Rather let them become the foundation on which you ...

  Today's motivation is relating time with success. When you give birth to a new born baby, time is needed for growth to be visible in the child. Daily when you are looking at the baby it seems like it is still the same baby, even though you can notice small differences daily, sometimes they are very insignificant that you don't see them as growth, but if you take pictures of when the baby was born and picture of after one year growth, you wil definitely see a huge difference that has taken place.  This is same thing that happens when you start to build something new, it most times seem as if there's no visible results, but I tell you the little increase you are seeing daily means a lot, and they are all working to become the big growth you can see after a while.  Nowadays, people want it big from the start, it's good to have great ambitions, but according to the work of nature, everything needs time to grow. It will be scary if you plant a seed today and by tomorrow mo...

  Today's motivation is a topic many people will find controversial but I will explain. I also had to learn this from very hard situations before I finally conclude on it. One of the reasons it is controversial is because it is very hard to be a creator especially without financial support to lift your creations high. I also at the time I newly completed my first degree in the university, I thought like my other mates, getting a job with a thriving company would be a good one, I even had one of my friends who was working with a big company said to me that I should listen to the voice of God and I should go and find a job so I can get paid instead of the little things I was doing then. But all along, I just felt my life wasn't meant to be a worker for anyone, I always see myself as having my own empire and being of influence and help to people. I tried working for people but every time I was rejected, some even employ me but it's always short term, I had jobs I only worked i...

 Today's motivation is continuation of yesterday's motivation. Yesterday, we talked about we are a star going somewhere high to shine hence we should not settle on the way, we should not join the group of those who lost visions for greater heights. Today we want to discuss why sometimes we pass through difficulties while trying to shine or on our journey to greater heights. The reason we have difficulties while pursuing greatness is because for gold to shine, it must pass through fire, same with us, imagine coming from a background that is not influential, your parents don't have enough money to sponsor your dreams and goals. Now the question comes, are you supposed to give up and not pursue your dreams? The answer is No. Another question is, will you find it easy to achieve your dreams and goals despite not having support from family? The answer is also No. You can't find it easy pursuing your dreams without relenting despite not getting support from family. But is it ...

  Today's motivation is continuation of yesterday's motivation. Yesterday we talked about the vision being for an appointed time. While we are working and waiting for the vision to be fulfilled, there are things that come our way trying to make us settle where we are. But with the reminder that I am a star I am going somewhere high and higher than where I am now to shine. We all know stars don't stay on the ground, they are usually up in the sky for everyone to see it. That is whom you are as an individual. Your background doesn't have to limit you, the place you are now doesn't have to limit you. Temptations from those who don't want to go higher don't have to limit you.  I want to explain further using an illustration. While we were in primary  or secondary school, some of our mates settled, they saw that level as the highest level for them, but for those of us who want to go higher we didn't settle, we moved higher. At the university level, some peopl...

  Today's motivation is from the Bible. We need God's words to encourage us to move forward even when it seems difficult to do. We can't do it on our own and we can't use our humanly wisdom because we are limited but God is unlimited. So while reading and digesting today's motivation don't allow religion fight in your heart just look at it that we need a power greater than us to keep us going and the Bible is a great book that talks about words from the mouth of God Almighty that is higher and greater than all things and everyone.  Today's motivation is also continuation from yesterday's motivation where we encourage ourselves not to ignore starting small. Today we are encouraging ourselves that while we are starting small, we should keep it on our minds that the great vision that we have that keeps us working hard is for an appointed time. It is for a time in the future and it will surely come to pass. When I first got the vision that I want to become a...

  I can talk about this today because I have experienced it. Today's motivation is to encourage us with a topic that many young people are ignoring today. Yesterday we talked about protecting our destinies even when it has not manifested yet instead of selling it off to people who offer money and take virtues away from younger people.  Today is like a continuation of yesterday's message. While you are avoiding being suppressed by people who don't want you to rise, you must be doing something to lift up your glory too. And most times this usually must have to be something small. Nowadays, lots of young people because of their great ambitious mind, they want the glory of someone who has worked for 30 years even when the young person has barely worked for a year. It's good to be ambitious but it's good to also know that a lot of things on my minds that we are wishing and praying for are for an appointed time. Many of them doesn't mean it should manifest now. Many o...

  Glad to be here again this morning with another words of motivation and encouragement.  Many times we look at others to be better than us but they are also looking at us being better. They are seeing the greatness in us that we are not seeing yet. That is why Bible encourages us not to let anyone despise our youth. Reason because, the elderly people who despise the youth of younger ones are targeting their great future. The younger ones like Esau in the Bible are saying, of what value is this virtue and greatness if there's no money to spend. Then they take money and something greater is taken away from them, just because the great future has not manifested yet doesn't mean it's not there. You have it within you so protect it, don't let anyone take it away from you.  I want to share my experience to explain better. When I finished my national youth service program, I was expecting to get jobs like my other mates but it was not forthcoming, this got me worried for year...

  Today again I am back with another message of keeping calm about where you are and not get unnecessarily anxious about where you want to be. Unlike what some people will be thinking, maybe I am encouraging people to love mediocre life and poverty. No, that is not my point, my point is to be contented with every stage of blessings and progress that God has given you. Riches, success have stages, if you are the type who has always been ungrateful about your level of success, no matter the height of greatness you have you will continually be anxious for more, without any heart of gratitude that there was once the level you are now was a prayer point for you to be there, moreover this kind of heart of ingratitude will make you look down on people who are not where you are yet. Because all along you will think it's because they are lazy that they have not risen to your level, whereas it's not so. It's God who gives riches. What heart of contentment does is to make you grateful...

  Today I have this words of encouragement and motivation, you are not behind in life.  Like I always say, we all need motivation in our lives, no matter the level we are in life.  We see rich people committing suicide and we are wondering what could have made them do such, that is because having money solves some issues it doesn't solve all issues. So if you are looking at yourself as if you are behind in life because some people are more successful financially, in business or career more than you, remember you are blessed with some other things money can't buy. So you are still blessed. There are lots of people who had money who don't have life again, their money could not keep them alive, you are looking at yourself as if you are behind in life but you are alive, so that makes you blessed. Don't only look at money to judge riches or blessings. Remember the saying, health is wealth.  Lots of people have money but they keep spending large amount of money daily just ...
