Avoid competition, life is not a game

-

 Life is not a game. Avoid competition. True wisdom lies in learning not to compete with others. It is the hallmark of maturity to understand that life is not a race but a journey tailored uniquely for each person. The moment you perceive everyone as competition, you risk losing the essence of your purpose, chasing fleeting validations of superiority instead of nurturing your true potential. You may find temporary satisfaction in saying, "I am better than him," but in doing so, you could sacrifice the deeper fulfillment that comes from personal growth. Stay focused on your lane. Life has already been designed to reward you when you grow into the version of yourself that you are meant to be. Competing with others blinds you to the wisdom that your journey is not theirs. Each person’s path is a reflection of the unique purpose and gifts they carry, and yours is no different. Competing with your teacher is particularly unwise. Teachers, in life or any field, hold the keys to wisdom you have yet to unlock. In challenging them prematurely or viewing them as rivals, you risk losing the critical lessons meant to guide you, potentially grounding your progress. God, in His design, has equipped you with a distinct package that only you can nurture. Focus on allowing it to grow, respecting the process, and embracing your evolution without the distractions of comparison. True greatness comes when you master the art of being better than your past self and not better than someone else.

UNDERSTANDING THE TIMES

-
Seriously, understanding your times in the making process poses a  great challenge to many as children of God. Unlike the trees and crops whose seasons are relatively constant in planting and fruition, every man has a unique timing in both. It is laid on us to understand under God what our times and seasons are. A man who ought to be in the planting season is expressing fruits (Results of being made). A man who ought to be in the germination stage is celebrating the harvest. See, once you miss your timing in life, there is already a huge deficit in purpose fulfillment. Don't envy any man. See their timeline and you will understand. One heavy blow the enemy has landed on our generation of young ones is to be fruitful without getting planted. They want to ride cars, build houses, have huge money, and get to do the "big" things without being buried as in planting. No cultivation,  no rooting, no thinning, and no manuring, none. They want to skip those times because of one ol

EXCUSES

-
Excuse me, man, excuses are never going to be genuine says, my philosophical friend. There is no amount of excuse that you give in not doing a thing that will be enough a substitute to doing that thing. You need to know that you have huge excuses on your path in your making process. Excuse your body will give, your desire will give, your lack of one thing or the other will give, so as not to achieve a task. Beware. Excuses will limit the height you should travel in life. Excuses present themselves as your disadvantages, your limitations, your huge boundary, or a mountain to climb. If you don't wake up and deal with every tenable and untenable excuse, you won't go far. The spy sent by Moses came back with devastating excuses that were enough to cause the people not to go on and possess their promised land. Only two stood out with different testaments. The land is filled with milk and honey but there is an obstacle that can get you stuck on the road without entering the land. The

THE USERS AND THE ABUSERS

-
If there is a bottomless pit, there is a roofless height. Some stuff you get to go through in life is God's module in making you become his own best version of you: a man or woman with no limit. Yes, with no limit. You are in God's program. Some deep pit that you may have been buried in may seem so deep that you sink into it more by the day based on your calculation. But in God's agenda, if the pit is so deep, the height of glory is roofless. There is no plateau in and with God. Once, you have been correctly planted and you germinate well, expect God to move you up the ladder higher and higher. Once you don't deviate from the right principle in God, you can be certain that there is a roofless height of manifestation. For young people, make sure you are planted well. Don't worry if those who "use" you. Learn well, don't give up, and ultimately stay in God. Be aware of the "abusers" too. Runaway from this set of people. They won't allow you
