This is the richest place on earth

Brian — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 16:51:27 +0000

According to the great Pastor Myles Munroe, he said

‘What is the richest place on earth?

This place of endless riches is not in the Middle East, where there’s rich black gold buried deep beneath the Earth’s surface—nor is this place in South Africa where there is a plethora of diamond mines. The wealthiest place in the world is a cemetery. Now one would ask, “For what justifiable reason is the wealthiest place in the world a cemetery?”

Richest Place on Earth

Simply put, in a cemetery, you fill find that there are books that were never written. There are songs that were never sung. There are ideas that were never acted upon—dreams that were long forgotten. If one were to die today, then what ideas and what aspirations would die with him or her? And the immediate contingencies that relied on the survival of such a reverie would eventually perish with the evanescing dream.’

The cemetery is actually the wealthiest place on earth. According to Myles Munroe it is the wealthiest place because it has all the treasures and songs and dreams of people that if it were manifested in real, it would have made the world a much richer and healthier place to live in.

So now that you know where the richest place in the earth is you need to start taking action today and everyday to ensure that you go after your dreams and you don’t die with your dreams unlived. You have greatness inside of you and the people who make a difference in this world are not those who have a dream but those who actually take the time to work on achieving their dreams.

So these are the steps you need to take now that you know this.

Write down your dreams
Order it according to which one is the most important
Take action each day to ensure you are one step closer in the achievement of your dream.

Once you do these things today and everyday you will eventually reach your dreams and be in the 3% of people who actually move past the stage of having a dream to living a dream.

I highly recommend you buy this book called Put Your Dream To The Test by John Maxwell

How to overcome your fears

Brian — Tue, 26 Apr 2011 17:50:14 +0000

Someone once said that ‘courage is not the absense of fear but the judgement that what you want is more important than your fear’

Now what does the author mean by such a statement.

Now how many of us have been procrastinating on doing something that we know we should be doing but fear has kept us back.

FEAR (False Evidence Appearing Real) is all just a state of mind but it is one of the greatest killers to a man going after his dreams.

When the author speaks about judgement he is saying that the judgment of one day not having enough money to take care of his sick mother is more important than the fear of not making 1 sale if he is an insurance worker etc.

We can learn from his same example. What is it you fear right now and what is the judgement associated with that fear.

Perhaps you have an interview tomorrow and you are scared that you will make a fool of yourself but the judgement could be that you need a job desperately or else your sick child could die and thus you will try your very hardest to ace that interview and forget the fear because the judgement is more important than your fear.

Do you get what I am saying. Here is what I want you do.

List out the things you should be doing each day but have not done it due to fear.
Write out what is the judgement associated with that fear.

Would you allow the fear to dictate your life from now on or the judgement? That is something only you can decide.

How bad do you want your dream

“If you want a thing bad enough to go out and fight for it, to work day and night for it, to give up your time, your peace and your sleep for it … if all that you dream and scheme is about it, and life seems useless and worthless without it … if you gladly sweat for it and fret for it and plan for it and lose all your terror of the opposition for it … if you simply go after that thing you want with all of your capacity, strength and sagacity, faith, hope and confidence and stern pertinacity … if neither cold, poverty, famine, nor gout, sickness nor pain, of body and brain, can keep you away from thing that you want … if dogged and grim you beseech and beset it, with the help of God, you WILL get it!” Written by author Berton Braley

I remember hearing this quote from Les Brown and I loved it.…What do you think about this quote. We have got to want what we want really bad or else we are not going to go after it. That is the truth. We will not get something we want half heartedly.…
