Glory of the world makes life meaningless. Glory of God fulfills it.
Beware ! Heart is too small to feel happy but soul is too big to take glory
Beware ! Discipline goes to two different directions : success and self glory. Self glory is the biggest failure of life.
Yesterday i was clever so i took the glory for me. Today HE makes me wise so i give the glory to HIM.
Big things in the glory of the world mean nothing. Small things in glory of God mean everything. Truly..., size doesn't matter in this world or in the world to come.
Sweet wine makes drunk, sour wine (insult) is "tetelestai". Life is not about what we have done and become, but how God to be fully glorified.
Whatever we have in the glory of man is "away". Those are just not enough before we go "home" to the glory of God.
Yesterday I was clever, so I took the glory for me. Today He makes me wise, so I give the glory to Thee
If we glorify God (not self) in everything we do then everything on earth will glorify God.
Entrepreneur, let your global & generational vision start locally, now.
With the world now a global village, your vision has to transcend different races and faces in different places around the world.
In your goals to go the extra mile, prepare to pay an extra cost. Excellence is to be exceptional, surpassing, more competent and a step ahead with what is in your hands.
One of the things I’ve learnt about goals is people will write them or wrong them.
Do you know great minds enjoy excellence, average minds love mediocrity and small minds adore comfort zones?
The Japanese had no idea what elements of Western culture and institutions where the crucial ones, so they ended up copying everything, from western clothes and hair styles to the European practice of colonizing foreign people. Unfortunately, they took up empire-building at precisely the moment when the cost of imperialism began to exceed the benefits.
To make the distinction unmistakably clear: Civilization is the vital force in human history; culture is that inert mass of institutions and organizations which accumulate around and tend to drag down the advance of life; Civilization is Giordano Bruno facing death by fire; culture is the Cardinal Bellarmino, after ten years of inquisition, sending Bruno to the stake in the Campo di Fiori...
Leadership isn't about age but rather, leadership is about influence, impact & inspiration.
The fact that at the moment the distinction is being made, a young adult, as opposed to an adult, is the one reading it. In other words, I don’t entirely believe in the distinction. A great book is a great book, and it’s impossible to say what part of a person is going to connect to it.
When distinction of any kind, even intellectual distinction, is somehow resented as a betrayal of the American spirit of equal opportunity for all, the result must be just this terror of individualistic impulses setting us apart, either above or below our neighbours; just this determination to obey without questioning and to subscribe with passion to the conventions and traditions. The dilemma becomes a very real one: How can this sense of democratic equality be made compatible with respect for exceptional personalities or great minds? How can democracy, as we understand it today, with its iron repression of the free spirit, its monotonous standardisation of everything, learn to cherish an intellectual aristocracy without which any nation runs the risk of becoming a civilisation of the commonplace and the second-rate?
In five minutes you should know if people have confirmed, calculated & considered your vision.
What the average call excellent, the excellent call average.
Yes, content is king but excellence is his queen. ~ Onyi Anyado.
You have to grab the goal, visualise your vision, excel in excellence and then become distinct in distinction.
When you walk in distinction, you don’t compete with anyone but competition wants to compete with you.
Entrepreneur, your distinction can be found on Twitter, so, is your thought leadership impressing or depressing?
Entrepreneur, your either raising the bar of excellence or your exhaling at the bar which is expensive.
