INSPIRE YOUR THOUGHTS

By Emmanuel OC - July 29, 2017

Ones potential is so huge, and so vast, Yet, why is it, that so many fail, and usually come last?, So few truly succeed, that when they do, others are jealous and totally aghast, Let’s all believe in success, and I promise that failure will be part of the past. The things you think, and the things you believe, If they are true, then those are the things that you will achieve, But if your thoughts are false, or they are used to deceive, You’ll be stabbed in the back, and that is a promise that you had better believe. Get rid of depression, worry and fear, Because success is so often so very, very near, Tell your subconscious , “success is mine”, and tell it to hear, Remind it often, then success will be yours, that is a promise, my dear. Just ask the “DIVINE”, for whatever you desire, For happiness or abundance, or anything else to which you aspire, It’s now time to succeed, so go ahead, set your goals, and light that fire, Do it w...

Small Step To Success

By Emmanuel OC - July 10, 2017

To many, success seems to come suddenly. When you observe others and what they have achieved you usually don’t appreciate what it has taken for them to get where they are. Ultimately, in failing to do this you also fail to learn what it would take for you to attain the same level of achievement and success. But, if you take the time to truly think about it, you will find that success is usually only a small step away. Yet despite that it eludes most people. It is always so near and yet so far. Let me illustrate what I mean with a short story. A lesson from military school As part of our military training in the air force we were given a very demanding assignment. We were put in groups of about 10 and taken to some unknown location far in the bush. After a few days of camping there and doing some military manoeuvres, we were told to head back to the base. Only this time we wouldn’t be driven back – we would have to hike back. We had only a few things to carry - a litre of water each ...

Don't Stop The Music

By Emmanuel OC - July 10, 2017

Music should strike fire from the heart of man, and bring tears from the eyes of woman. ~Ludwig Van Beethoven~ You know, I have found that to be so true. There is a song for every occasion. I remember when I was at Ridgeway campus. If my friends needed music for a party or just to listen to something, they would often come to me. I had a great collection. Over the years I managed to pack my computer, which had a storage capacity of 10 gigabytes at the time, with over 7 gigabytes of music. That was over 2000 songs or 7000 minutes of listening time. You could put the player on shuffle and listen to music for 5 days, 24 hours a day without ever having to hear the same song twice. Inspirational speech – Music for every occasion There was music there for every mood I was in. When I felt like “getting Jiggy with it” I just slammed the volume high on the “Woox” bass system and I was gone. Too bad if my neighbours were studying because I just had to let loose. The good thing was that e...

The Gap Between Knowlegde and Action

By expressionpath - July 10, 2017

Have you ever wondered why, a lot of times, you just can’t seem to make progress in life despite the fact that you know so much about what it takes to succeed? There just seems to be a gap between what you know and what you actually do. I call this The Gap Between Knowledge and Action. That is the title of this message: The Gap Between Knowledge and Action. Over the years, I have gotten many enquiries through my website called Motivation for Dreamers from people who feel frustrated and unable to progress in life. Quite a few indicated that they have read a lot of different personal development and motivational materials over the years and acquired a wealth of knowledge in this way. But, for some reason, they just couldn’t get past reading or listening to such materials to actually living the life they desired. Often this was accompanied by a sense of frustration and the feeling that perhaps such things just don’t work, or at least not for them. That is usually how we get to feel whe...

Dare To Make a Difference

By expressionpath - July 10, 2017

THE WALK I think it all started when I was 18 years old and in my first year at campus. That was about the time that I started to observe people’s behaviour and just to think about life. I was taking a walk with two friends and was in deep thought. They were chatting, but I was not paying attention to what they were saying. Then suddenly I said “You know guys; I am pretty disappointed with the adult world.” One of them asked me why and I explained that when I was going to campus I expected a lot of change and difference in the behaviour of the people around me. After all, they were adults. I always thought being an “adult” was a lot different from being a kid. However I felt after being on campus for a few months that the adult world was not what I had expected. Everyone just seemed to behave like they were still teenagers. Nobody seemed to be outstanding in any way. There was no distinction, as far as I could see, between the 18 year old and the 50 year old apart from their age...
