DECISION (1): Why is it important?

Opening his eyes to a bright, brand new day, Josh stretched, yawned and hopped out of his Dunlop exquisite foam. Unintentionally, he strolled to the calendar hanging just opposite his bed, and looked at the date. 30th August!

Suddenly, he became uncomfortable with "the speed" with which the year was moving, his countenance changed, his heart paced faster, his eyes gradually closed in discontent as he imagined all he had thought about accomplishing before the middle of the year. The books he wanted to read, and those he needed to publish. The conferences he had vowed to attend. The certificates he had sworn to earn, the investments he had hoped to make, and the level he had promised himself to have attained! At the point of thinking about these desires, they where fresh and there was enthusiasm with alacrity. But what happened? Why have I spent 8months without achieving a single one?

Decision is a conscious choice solidified by conviction about the necessity to do something. The power of decision is a bit mysterious. It binds your sub-consciousness to your consciousness. Ignites an inevitable fire in you that pulls your sensory neurons every flipping second reminding them about your dreams.
Its one thing to dream and make wishes, but until you've decided to realize them, even the weakest of winds will blow you off the course of attainment.

Decision conditions your mind to make every necessary sacrifice to achieve your dream.
It pressurizes your tenacity to keep fit till it has achieved that success.
It makes stumbling blocks appear as necessary Stepping stones to your success.
It slaps you when you waste time on non essentials.
It disrupts your sleep when you embark on it longer than you've given time to your goal.
It strengthens you when you fail.
It encourages you when you rise up to keep pursuing.
Its stands by you till you hit the target.
Its steps aside and bask in the euphoria of your praise when you're being celebrated.

If you must Make A Difference, you must take a Decision!

Josh realized later how much time he had lost because he never took a conscious DECISION on those plans. Though, he later pressed the D-Button, he still couldn't achieve much before the year winded up.

Dear Quintessential reader, take a DECISION to accomplish those plans today, and safe your life regrets that will never add value to your future.

THE BRAIN: POWERFUL DETERMINANT FOR ACTIVATION OF POTENTIALS

The brain is the number one evidence and epitome of gabbage in gabbage out. I have heard some people say "Oh if I read this for a long time, my brain will explode. Lol, sweetheart that is super untrue.  Research has it that, only 2% of the human brain has been used 98% remains mostly  unused, so there ain't an explosion that comes from maximizing the brains capacity. Our brain weighs 1.4 kilogram and suprisingly has 14 billion nerve cells, so it has the ability to contain large stock of information, larger that has ever been stuffed into anyone's brain.  A great research was made by some neurosurgeons in their bid to understand the capacity of the human brain. This research was carried out with two categories of brains which were : The brain of a freshly dead professor and that of an illiterate who left his brain dormant. It took pretty time to do this great comparism and GUESS WHAT!!!🤩🤭😌😁😁😁 There  was no difference between the brains when compared in te

BURST THAT COCOON ( BTC )

D BROKEN SILENCE!!!! Some 8years ago , I feared standing up in the midst of a crowd not to talk of speaking to them. The irony about the issue was that i always had a succinct idea that i believed was needful to place this aright, but i always squabble in fear and let my mouths get sealed up. She got into trouble because i found it difficult to say a word and prove her guiltless. I got bullied a couple of times because my silence made them feel I was configured to be maltreated. I missed bonus marks in the class, not because I didn't know the answer to the "seemingly tough question" but because i just kept silence about my knowledge , feeling so timid to say my mind. Amidst this years people kept on telling me, don't worry its just the best way to be - SILENT, I felt worst when I noticed in my small veil- covered mind that even those who spoke made no difference. I never knew that a word fitly spoken can turn tides even if not immediately . The whole scene kept

 Part 1: The Foundation of Personal Leadership   Welcome to our series on Building Personal Leadership! True leadership starts from within. John C. Maxwell's had this to say about leadership- "Leadership is not about being in charge. It is about taking care of those in your charge." To take care of those in your charge, you need to have the capacity to understand their unique needs and challenges. You need to be steps ahead of them to understand their fears, worries, concerns and thereby provide relevant answers to their questions. Leaders who exert impact in the life of others are leaders who lead from personal experiences and who first invest in personal leadership. You can not give what you don’t have. If you attempt to do so, you will only feed them theories and leave them clueless on how to practice them. People stick to leaders who are masters at leading themselves. Hence, in your leadership journey, the best place to start is PERSONAL LEADERSHIP.
