READ! READ!! READ!!!





  • In an ever more and more distracting World, its difficult to settle on a task on a consistent and  long term basis. We find ourselves bombarded by the emails, chats, television, etc, many times we loose sight of the more important things and allow ourselves to be carried away with those things that do not necessary add Value to our lives.
  • One of such neglected good habits is the habit of Reading! Bishop David O. Oyedepo said he was challenged to read by a phrase he heard opt repeated that “If you want to hide something from a black man, put it in a book” Grocho Marx puts it succinctly;

  • “I find television very educating.          Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book.”

  • Many of today’s successful people are addicted readers
  • “It is what you read when you don't have to that determines what you will be when you can't help it.” ~ Oscar Wilde
  •  Remember, you will be the same person you are today in the next Five years except for the Books you read, the places you visit and the company you keep
  • See You On Top!

The results would be mind-blowing. The beauty of it is that everything you do is for yourself. Don't make the mistake as an employee of thinking that you are working for someone else.

WHAT WILL YOU BE REMEMBERED FOR? “Live the way you want to be remembered” ~ purehappylife.com Perhaps it has not crossed your mind, perhaps you have not given it serious thought, perhaps, perhaps, perhaps. Life is transient is obvious, position much more, but many politicians carry on like they have a remote control for life and death and are too busy acquiring wealth and possessions to be concerned about legacy. But you have to, you must begin to think about what you will be remembered for? Nehemiah said “Remember me, O my God, for good, according to all that I have done for this people.” ~ Nehemiah 5:19 MEV Unfortunately, most of the things we labor for – The Houses, Exotic Cars, Trips abroad etc do not count as legacy. You see you’ve been laboring for the wrong things and for the wrong reasons perhaps. Chief Obafemi Jeremiah Oyeniyi Awolowo GCFR (6 March 1909 – 9 May 1987) as a politician is not remembered for his personal possession but for what he did for his peo...
