You feed your stomach through your mouth. You can either maintain a healthy body based on the kind of food you enjoy eating or disfigure your body and impair your health through same.

The way you feed your body is the same way that you feed your mind. The only difference is the medium. With the mind, the medium is either through the senses of sight, hearing, feeling or even smell. Yes, even by the sense of smell, we can enrich the mind.

Growth mindset is a productive mindset that is self-aware, self-renewed, self-evaluatory, and self-validating.

What is a mindset? Mindset is not just about what you think. Mindset is what you are within you and what you are made up of. Mindset is how you are wired. Mindset is the information at your disposal. It is the power of your mind. This power influences your thinking. This power affects and directs everything you do.

The concept of gifts and talents is a major success indicator for mankind. It is extremely important for everyone to know what gifts or talents they received from God and to make deliberate efforts to develop and deliver same to the market. The reason is simple. Our gifts and talents are our strengths and we should play to our strengths. They were given to us to make way for us here and if we use them well, they will make our dreams a reality.

A thick skin is not a skin devoid of feeling or one that is dead to pain. It is one that has become so used to pain that it can accept the bitter words and toxins shot at it. The skin receives poisonous words and permits the words to flow through, gets used to it, till it become its strength.

Writing from the depth of your being is grueling. To find the right words and the discipline that match your inspiration is a tough call. Discipline is the ability to balance both the speed and the patience of inspiration simultaneously. Inspiration does visit in its own time, not in your own time. It can come rushing at you when you are ill-prepared. It can come slowly. It chooses when it comes, but whenever it does visit, you must make yourself ready.

When something good happens to someone else what is your first reaction? What is the first feeling you get? What happens inside of you first: joy or repulsion?

This is a very important thought that if we fail to manage well, can be one huge reason why we are not growing as we anticipate and as much as we assiduously work.

Napoleon Hill provides us with six fears that he believes plague mankind: failure, sickness, old age, loss of love, poverty and criticism.

As I converse with a friend, the fear of venturing suddenly strikes me as a major, though negative force that underlies failure and poverty. This is what I think. This is what is being impressed on my discovery quotient.

Oftentimes you hear people say, "I am not what happened to me", "I am not what I was", and such clichés. While they may not be wrong due to the perceptions they hold in the present, the truth is that the past is yet, because the past lives in them. Your past lives in you.
