MAXIMIZE 2018

Introduction

There two kinds of people here today

1.      Those who will hear

2.      Those who came to listen

Hearing is the bodily ability to observe sound.

Listening is the mental capacity to process and interpret information in a way that is applicable and rewardable.

Which one are you?

There are 5 Reasons People Don’t Learn or Change

1.      Ego (over-inflated self-importance)

2.      Stubbornness (Knowing the truth but refusing to accept it)

3.      Arrogance/Pride (calling yourself what you are not

4.      Intelligence (what stop many in life is not what they don’t know, but what they know that is not true. Nothing is more frustrating than Wrong education.)

5.      Experience



Knowledge is Key.

What will determines whether you fail or succeed in knowledge not information.

People always make the mistake of going after money, connection and resources. Knowledge is the priority.

Prov 24:4-5: By knowledge the rooms are filled with all precious and pleasant riches. A wise man is strong, yes, a man of knowledge increases strength;

3 Levels of knowledge that Create a Significant Life

1.      Revelational  Knowledge

It is in God’s word thst you discover o your true identity, capacity and worth

Prov 21:22: A wise man attacks the city of the mighty and pulls down the stronghold in which they trust

Knowledge = strength/power

God blesses and prosper us in knowledge forms. It gives us vision.

Deut 8:18: "And you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day.



2.      Theoretical Knowledge

It’s the knowledge from school, books that shows you you strategies and principles of accomplishing your vision. Reading is a royal behavior. Kings read. Kings relate with men, God relate with kings. Kings discover and teach men.

3.      Empirical Knowledge

Collective events and activities of the past where an individual draws up opinions and conclusion. Learn from a mentor, you don’t have enough time to make all the mistakes.



0.0 Starts with God. Gen.1:1.

John 15:5: "I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.



God factor is indispensable to your success in 2018.

Matthew 6:33. SEEK first the kingdom of God.

Psalms 37:4-5. Only God has the capacity to bring your dream to pass.

Proverbs 16:9 it's mans responsibility to plan, Gods to establish

Start with God go with God and end with God.



0.1 Discover Yourself.

What is your core? Who are you? What are your core values?

List 3-5 of your most important value

What are your three key principles of life?

What are your value regarding money, work, family, relationship, faith"

What's your picture of an ideal person?

How would you want your biography to be written?

1. Create your vision for 2018.

Vision is your destination in pictures.

Vision is the pictures of the future in the mind

Vision is what is what the eyes cannot see but the heart can feel.

Vision is discovering that ONE THING you are created to do. LK 10:41-42

Vision does not means doing big things. But it means accomplishing unforgettable feat.

Your vision shouldn't revolves round your life and resources.



Though vision deals with future, but your vision is not ahead of you. It's in you.

Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he Proverbs 29:18

Your vision in 2018 must fit into your overall purpose. What's the big picture?

It is what you see that you become. 2Cor 3:18

The Purpose of Vision

1.      Vision preserves or save life. Without vision you are not fit to live.

2.      Vision attracts resources

3.      Vision Determines how resources are dispensed

4.      Vision eliminate distraction

5.      Vision exerts discipline

6.      Vision dictates your decision from several choices

7.      Vision dictates your actions



Visualize Your Future

What is your vision?

3. Goal Setting

“Manu people failed in life, not for lack of ability or brains or even courage, but simply because they have never organized their energies around a goal”- Albert Hubbard

Goals are written visions with strategies and timelines to achieve them.  

Can you imagine a football match without a goal post?

Habakkuk 2Hab 2:2-3

Then the Lord answered me and said:"Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry.

Write your goals down

Is empirically proven that only 3% of University of Harvard graduate writes the goals, 13% had goals but not written down, 84% don't have any goals at all maybe they have hope. 10 years later, it was found that the 13% who had unwritten goal are earning twice as much what the 84% earns the 3 % who had written goals 10 times the 97% altogether.

7 Key Areas You Need to Set Goals For.

1.      Spiritual

2.      Financial

3.      Professional/Career

4.      Marital

5.      Academic

6.      Emotional/Psychological

7.      Health

ARE YOU A PLAYER OR A SPECTATOR?

There are various categories of people in the world. Some categorize people into: • Rich and  Poor • Aristocrats and Commoners • Leaders and Followers • Believers and Infidels/Gentiles/Unbelievers • Great and the Lowly Just to mention a few.  However, in this post I would categorize people into  PLAYERS and SPECTATORS. Whether you are in business, banking, politics, ministry, entertainment, photography, engineering, medicine, law, education, government or whatever you’re into. You are either a player or a spectator. Here is how to know which category you belong. Either in the game of football, tennis, cricket, or any other game, spectators are always 99.9% while the players are just 0.01%. If you are among the crowd, sorry you are a spectator. If you are part of the majority, you are still a spectator. If you are part of the normal people you’re a spectator. Let me show you quickly some distinguishing characteristics between players and spectators. 1. ...

7 THINGS A LEADER MUST AVOID

7 THINGS A LEADER MUST AVOID When you follow the way that leads to your destiny there are always some barricades. If a path is so smooth without temptations and challenges it’s because it probably leads to nowhere. . Once t enemy sees you on motion going to the place of your destiny, he begins to set road blocks, and obstructions to make sure you don’t get there. You need to discover them to be able to avoid them 1. Sin The first attack the enemies launch on your way is sin. Sin sinks destiny. It sinks great dreams and visions. One of the things that can make us stoppable is sin against God. The devil knows that once he can introduce sin into your life then he can stop you. The number one threat of man is not the devil but sin. Once we open the door to sin the devil automatically gains influence. Sin turns a giant into a piece of bread; it has buried many great destinies in the graveyard of life.  Many have sunk in the ocean of life. Sin can stop the swiftest man; it can w...

MANAGING CHANGE IN LEADERSHIP In life the only constant thing is change. Change is an inevitable event in the history of man. Certain changes have drawn mixed reactions from individuals. Unsettling times throughout history have resulted in societal fear, panic, distress and confusion. Many people were not prepared for these changes; some reacted with suspicion, contempt and violence, others simply surrendered to the inevitability and became victims of the force of change. We live in an ever changing world. There are two kinds of people that change not; fools and the dead. Fools won’t, dead men can’t.  When you refuse to change you end up in chains. Your ability to manage change as a leaders determines your ability to maintain relevance and progress.
