Helping others is like sowing a seed which will hopefully bring forth fruits.
"Life's most urgent question is: What are you doing for others?"__Martin Luther King, Jr.
When we help others,we are indirectly helping ourselves.
"If you help others you will be helped, perhaps tomorrow, perhaps in one hundred years, but you will be helped.Nature must pay off its debt.It is a mathematical law and life is mathematics"__G.I. Gurdjieff.
Sometimes, helping others requires sacrifices but it worth the sacrifices.
Help others even when it is crystal clear that they don't have the wherewithal to pay you back.
Payback time will surely come and nature will pay all its debt because the law of Karma is still much active.
We rise by lifting others and not by bringing others down.
Let posterity benefit from your existence.Make an impact, touch life positively.You will always be remembered for the impacts you made.
A Chinese proverb says that:"Those who drink the water must remember those who dug the well. "
Most of the things we enjoy today are largely the the labour others who chose to help others.
Finally, choose to help others and you will be glad you did.
Keys are indispensable tools in opening of doors.You may never know the importance of a key until you misplaced your house key.

The possession of wrong keys can make a man go round the circle without succeeding.
The right keys to success are persistence, preparation, patience, determination, focus, consistent, discipline, hard work and a host of others.
The right keys to success are not gotten on a silver platter.
You might have been trying to open the door of success and your efforts in trying to open the door through the right keys seem futile.Don't be discouraged,keep trying the right keys, I know surely that the last key in the bunch of keys to the door of success will definitely open it.

The journey to success is not always smooth,there are many setbacks one is bound to encounter if one has to be successful.

The mind is invisible but its works are visible in a man's life.
The mind can be liken to a battle field. Many battles take place in the mind. The first place battles are won is the mind.
Battles are first won in the mind before materialising in the physical world.
Mindset is the collection of thought and beliefs that affect the way someone thinks, feels and what one does.
Some minds are preset by societal expectations and norms.
Some people's minds have been wrongly set. Their minds are set to settle for something less, that is, mediocrity. These set of people tend to equate mediocrity to humility.
"Once your mindset changes, everything on the outside will change along with it"__Steve Maraboli.
"I truly believe in positive synergy that your positive mindset gives you a more hopeful outlook, and belief that you can do something great means you will do something great"__Russell Wilson.
You have to do some soul-searching and examine how your mind has been wrongly set, then take the bold or required actions to reset your mindset.
Learning is from cradle to death, learning for life is that type of learning that take place from the time of birth to the time of death.
Anyone that stops learning is considered a living corpse, although,he or she may still be living.
Learning does not only take place in the four walls of the university and learning does not end after graduating from the university.
"The capacity to learn is a skill,the ability to learn is a skill,the willingness to learn is a choice"__Brian Herbert.
We can learn from our past failures and from the pitfalls of others.
Finally, don't stop learning because life doesn't stop teaching.
