I don’t Like YOU

“I DON’T LIKE YOU, in fact I DON’T BELIEVE IN YOU or whatever you’re doing. I see it all as a waste of energy; it makes no sense.”

I am sure you have received such feedback before either directly or indirectly, by an action, a gesture, verbally or metaphorically.

It’s also possible that at a few times that you were told this you felt bad or just ignored it. However, the truth remains that at several times people or environment would most likely tell us this.

Well somehow, we all smile at approvals and frown at disapproval. Even when we end up bouncing back after a rejection, at least for a split seconds something in us would feel bad.

It’s normal !

What is wrong is when we misplace APPROVAL, or Acceptance for a trues TEST Of WORTH.

I don’t like you could mean many things but not your WORTH.

ME Paul Shola Oguntade, don’t eat sea some foods, fish to be precise. That does not relegate its WORTH.

I have a friend Adebayo Kolawole Samuel, this dude is crazy about music, he always showing me one song or another of Mali Music, I hear it and it sounds good, but till today I still don’t know why he screams with joy at the sound of Music.

That is just a small example out of a million others.

My message today is this, Approval, Acceptance, or Interest; the presence or lack of it is not a true test of WORTH.

So before you cry about that heart break, rejection, or whatever, think we’ll, was it because I don’t have Value or because my VALUE is not appropriated here.

Day 13 – We Are Super Heroes

I LOVE comics, I LOVE Marvel pictures, I LOVE DC Comics. When you watch a Marvel Pictures movie or cartoon, you get to see how humans with special power do wonderful stuff with thier Area of strength.

Comics are pure fiction, no man can fly like Superman or run as fast as flash.

However, we the real humans have our own Super Powers as well, everyone of us do. You just may have not found yours yet.

Day 11 – What’s your Flavour

We are celebrated for our difference and not for our similarities. It is the expression of your Originality that will get you recognised and celebrated.

What this means is this; you are a photographer like a million others. What difference would you bring to how and why you do photography?

To be unique does not mean to come up with one strange or alien idea. It simply means being YOU.

YOU is Your Originality and Uniqueness, and “YOU” comprises of the following;

Abilities
Passions
Experiences
Personality

1. Abilities or Talents is the TOOL of expression,

2. Passion is a POINTER as to how and why you would do what you do

3. Experiences will also SHAPE your unique approach to things. Experience could be education, knowledge, exposures, lessons learnt etc.

4. Personality is another DICTATOR of your uniqueness.

You see, the blend of these four components of YOU is what brands your Originality and difference. No two persons on earth has the same blend.

You won’t find the uniqueness they would bring to your life in a day, but stay open and keep probing, as time progresses, you would be able to fine tune more and more what you do till you are able to carve your own niche as a Brand.

Yes you are a Brand, so what’s your flavour?

Day 9 – You Are Not Water

This is by the way, but I feel I should still share it.

YOU are not water, you are not meant for everybody, stop trying to be so. Be comfortable in your own skin and stop bothering about your big nose, short arm, funny accent, tiny breast or whatever.

Day 8- CALLING is for MOVERS

Day 8 – It’s a CALL-ing not a script !

I’m sure you are familiar with the statement; “what’s your calling” or “what I am called to do”

Now before your defence rise in protest, I am not against being called, a calling actually exists. Lols

But it is simply what it is; a CALL-ing !!!

Day 7- WHAT IS IMPORTANT?

WHAT IS IMPORTANT ?

Yesterday’s discuss was about who is important, today I want to talk about WHAT IS IMPORTANT.

Yesterday, I bruised the heart of a dear friend just because I’ve been “BUSY” all the while, and I was foolishly proud of my busyness.

Day 6 – Who is important?

Yesterday, I explained what makes our activity valid; the HOW and WHY behind all human activity.

Today is DAY 6 of our 22 days Journey, Today I want to correct a subtle mindset that has gone far and wrong.

Because of what I write about, I get a lot of questions about purpose, talents, career etc. And most times I see that people want to do great and live the life of blessing that they ought to live, but they seem to get it wrong somewhere.

See, Motivational Speakers, Preachers, NGOs, Social Workers, Writers, Coaches, Consultants etc are not the only ones making impact, the are not the only ones qualified for a life of greatness. They are not the only ones fulfilling purpose.

People tell me they want to fulfil purpose, be a blessing and be great. And so they think the only way to do so is by being in one of the above mentioned professions, or setting up a ministry an NGO or something like that.

Who will be the tailor, who will be the teacher, who will be the banker, who will be musician and everyone else that is as well important ?

No Role is useless as long as the activity is aligned to the 2 yardsticks I laid down yesterday. The Mobile App you’re developing is as important as the NGO work feeding a whole country.

The problem we are having now is that there are too many Business Men and Women doing NGO works. Too many Agro-preneurs trying to be effectiveness Coaches.

The issue is not with the activity but the WHY and HOW behind the activity.

So please don’t try to be who you are not just because you also want to feel important. Like Segun Omjola would say; WHERE YOU ARE IS WHERE YOU OUGHT TO BE.

Express your UNIQUE passion and we would be blessed.

BE you !

Thanks

The GOAL of Everything

DISCLAIMER, PLEASE NOTE;

Paul Shola Oguntade is not against having a good life, ie wealth, riches and the good things of life. My message to the world is not speaking against all that, I am here rather to let us know what is more important; the very PLACE VALUE OF THINGS and to live accordingly.

There is a Goal HOVERING over humanity ie Mankind, our kind. It is this Goal that gives meaning to any other pursuit of man, whether it is wealth, fame, position, power, security, safety, career success, business growth, or whatever.

The pursuit of those other goals is not what is wrong, what is wrong is HOW and WHY we go after them. What CONSCIOUSNESS dwells within you when you do everything you do; that’s the cogent matter here.

This GOAL of mankind is what gives meaning to any other sub goal a man could have.

So now what is that HOVERING GOAL?

Now before I say anything about this Goal, I should quickly point that, TRUTH is TRUTH regardless of it’s universal acceptable reject. The North Pole is the North Pole regardless of what your sense if direction tells you.

With that said, now let me give the simplest explanation of what this Goal is.

A life in synch with God is super key, such life lived and led by God, for the advancement of the Kingdom and Life in general is the way to live.

1. MAN was created for God by God;
2. MAN is a co-creative force with God;
hence, PLAY YOUR PART HERE WELL !

1. Your life makes no sense, without a RELATIONSHIP with your maker.

2. You were designed uniquely and fit for a role that should advance the course of things in the universal and eternal scheme of things. Any lifestyle lesser than this is inferior regardless of your position status and power.

This is the background; By his Grace, we will continue tomorrow with deeper stuff, today is just day 5 out of a 22 day Journey.

Don’t get tired yet, more will come.

I AM Paul Shola Oguntade and I am deeply interested in your relevance.

Thanks for reading.

Day 4: Direction

Good morning your highness, and happy weekend to you.

Today is Day 4 of the countdown to my New eBook release. Usually I do have a pre-written message for each day. But something happened yesterday that got to me big time.

Not to bother you about the long story, let me just go straight to the message.

Day 2: To HAVE or to GIVE?

Day 2: To HAVE or to GIVE?

You will most likely frown at me when I say that Our KIND were not created to HAVE, but to GIVE.

Yes you would HAVE eventually, but GIVING precedes HAVING for us, it’s an irrational formula the poor and low lives will not understand or accept. This is a paradigm that has become forgotten and neglected. Stomach Adjustment Programme (SAP) has blinded us from this truth of life.
