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!

Can any of the Politicians that have served in Bayelsa State, Truly Honestly in the comfort of their Glorious bedrooms say “I did my best for my people”? 2.

"Real difficulties can be overcome. It is only the imaginary ones that are unconquerable." ~ Theodore N. Vail Our minds is our greatest asset and our greatest burden, you never hear a truer word. Our minds are so loaded that the Almighty God our Creator said ".......... After this, nothing they set out to do will be impossible for them!" ~ Genesis 11:6 {NLT} Compare that to this  "........ Everything is possible for the one who believes"" ~ Jesus Christ - Mark 9:23 {NIV} Napoleon Hill puts it succinctly when he said "Whatever the Human mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve" So why is it difficult for many of us to utilize this free gift generously given to us?
