"Always bear in mind that your resolution to success is more important than anything other one thing" _ Abraham Lincoln

People who succeed in life are not those who have never made a mistake, been discouraged, or failed, but those who have never given up despite their numerous mistakes and failures.

Determination is the personal resolve not to give up regardless of the circumstances. What happens if you encounter roadblocks on your way to your destination? You either push through them or forge a new path.That is the thing about determination. It keeps you going no matter what comes your way. Failure is only a distraction when you are determined. It is not the end.

Frankly speaking, determination is the key to success. If you are determined, hardworking, and consistent nothing can stop you from achieving your goals. 

To succeed in life, you must be determined and focused on your goals. The road to success is not easy. However, by remaining determined and putting in consistent effort, you can make the difficult journey bearable. This is why the value of determination cannot be overstated, as it inspires you to dream bigger and achieve more.

When you want something out of life, life will put your resolve and determination  to test. People and situations will conspire against you; betrayal, disappointment, frustration, shocking and unexpected developments will frequently knock you off balance. All of this will make you want to give up, but if you make the decision that no matter what comes your way, you will go for what you want, life and people will eventually surrender to you. Determination, not superior skills, is the power that truly subdues opposition. Your tenacity and determination will carry you through life. When you're determined, your future will bring you greatness. Never, ever give up!

Where is the richest or wealthiest place on Earth? Is it New York City or graveyard?

New York City (NYC) is the wealthiest city on earth because more wealthy people live in The City than any other city on the planet. But the richest place on Earth is arguably the graveyard. The reason for this is not far-fetched, the graveyard is filled with books that were never written, songs that were never sung, dreams that never became reality, movies that were never acted and a lot talents.

Les Brown, an American politician and motivational speaker said that:

"The graveyard is the richest place on earth, because it is here that you will find all the hopes and dreams that were never fulfilled, the books that were never written, the songs that were never sung, the inventions that were never shared, the cures that were never discovered, all because someone was too afraid to take that first step, keep with the problem, or determined to carry out their dream."

Myle Munroe also said that:

“The wealthiest place in the world is not the gold mines of South America or the oil fields of Iraq or Iran. They are not the diamond mines of South Africa or the banks of the world. The wealthiest place on the planet is just down the road. It is the cemetery. There lie buried companies that were never started, inventions that were never made, bestselling books that were never written, and masterpieces that were never painted. In the cemetery is buried the greatest treasure of untapped potential.” 

What is life all about? This question determines the quality of our life. Each day is a mini-life, and each day gradually becomes our life. We only have one life to live and we need to make the most out of the years will live. 

Life has been given to mankind as a gift, and it is too precious to waste. Maximize all your potential. Let the world see the best version of you. Let the grave receive nothing else other than your empty body.

How do you think? How valuable and constructive are your daily thoughts? 

There is no one on Earth that does not think. Most of our actions are influenced by how we think and our thinking pattern is affected by external voices.

Your thoughts have a significant impact on the course of your life. You act on the basis of your thought.

It's a common adage that a man is as he thinks. What you see and hear on a daily basis has the potential to influence your thinking for better or worse.

The following four (4) thinking patterns will help be of great help:

THINKING BIG:

Don't limit yourself by your thinking because you can't move beyond your thinking level. You have to see beyond the present moment. Always consider the big picture when making decisions; it will help you advance in life.

REALISTIC THINKING:

Positive confessions should not cause you to deny the obvious. Be realistic in life.

CRITICAL THINKING:

Don't be bias when a taking a decision. Gather facts and work on the facts and not your emotions. You have to be objective when it comes to critical thinking.

CREATIVE THINKING:

You need the ability to create relevant solutions to existing problem. Think outside the box.

The difference between successful persons and those who don't succeed is the quality of their thinking; change your thinking and you will change your life. It's time to move on. Think big and progressive thoughts, use good thinking to improve your life. 

If you're struggling in life today, feeling overwhelmed by challenges. I believe it's time to evaluate your thinking quality.

“Nothing is going to work out unless you step up and make it happen.” – Auliq Ice.

A global law known as the law of cause and effect specifies that, no matter what, every action in the cosmos always results in a reaction.

Every single thing that happens in our world or on our planet has a cause and an origin.

The universe rewards action. There is always a required action for every desired success. Actions must be taken for success to take place.

Nothing happens by chance or luck. You have to work for it. Be intentional about your desired life. That dreams or vision written can only happen when you take action.

Nothing worthwhile comes on silver platter.

Every successful persons are goal setters and goal getters. They have beautiful dreams and they make them become reality by taking required actions. They don't expect things to fall in place but they make things to fall in place.

Life always has a way of rewarding people that take actions. 

Don't allow your family background or geographical location to determine how far you go in life.  Leave your comfort zone, go and pursue your dreams, don't be a spectator in life. Go and make things happen. Take the driver sit of your life, never leave your future in the hand of fate. 

You are solely responsible to make that dreams and goals happen for you. Get up and take life by storm, get up and make it happen.

All across the world, suicide is a common occurrence that affects every region. It is a severe public health issue.

Accordingly to the to World Health Organization, more than 700 000 people die by suicide every year.

There are many causes of suicide, but according to research, depression is a significant contributing factor to suicide.

Excessive melancholy, a loss of interest in pleasurable activities, and a lack of motivation are symptoms of depression. 

life is not often pleasant. Life is a roller coaster ride with many peaks and valleys. Sometimes, life presents us enormous stumbling blocks that seem hard to overcome.

Irrespective of the difficulties you are facing, remember that suicide is not an option. 

When there is life, there is hope, keep living life, don't give up on life irrespective of the pains and hurts that life throws your way or path. 

Suicide is never be an option. Many people are in hospitals, laying on sick beds, battling for their lives. They will pay everything to have the life and health you have now.

Your life is precious!

SAY NO TO SUICIDE!!!

Life is not a bed of roses nor a bed of thorns. It is filled with ups and downs. 

Do you feel like giving up on life? Or, do you feel life is not worth living?

Hope is a sense of expectation and longing for something to happen.

You matter, and your life counts, regardless of your past, how broke or broken you are, where you are now, or what anyone else says.

Do not allow circumstances of life to steal away your hope.

There is still hope of a better and brighter future.

There is hope of succeeding irrespective of how many times that you failed.

Do not give up on life. Be optimistic about life.

Your long-awaited change is pretty much around the corner. Do not lose hope.

You are extremely important to humanity.

Don't be too hard on yourself when things don't go as planned or when the path appears difficult. 

Everyone has their time to shine. Friends that you started together may have gone far ahead you.

Celebrate them. Your time to be celebrated is nearer than you think. Keep the hope alive.

We can't have two Kings in a palace at a time.

The fact that it is not happening now does not mean it is not going to happen.

Even if something appears to be becoming increasingly implausible, never lose faith in it.

Provided you have life, you have hope. Keep grinding. 

The right words lift us. They can kindle your fire or fan your flames.
