PHILOSOPHY

If we don't learn to succeed when we are confined, we may never succeed when we become free. If we can't succeed where we are, it just might be difficult or impossible to be outstanding elsewhere. The limitations are not our schools, countries, families or jobs; we are the problem and we can be the solution. Don’t try to be successful, be the success! Don’t try to build an empire somewhere, be the empire! Keep in mind that it is not so much of what we achieve that matters, it is who we eventually become in the process.
- Akinola

 

Never let anyone talk you out of your dreams. Don't back down because of people's opinions. Some will say you are too young or old to attempt big stuff; others will tell you to take things easy; there are those who will even ask you to apologize for giving your best. Don't listen to them! No man of success and enviable influence ever took things easy. They work day and night; they invest hours creating networks and awareness; they even engage superior spiritual powers. This is how it's done if you have the thought, no matter how small, that you deserve a place among or beyond the great. And on behalf of all of us who believe in you, I welcome you to the club of greatness.
