There is nothing that hinders success more than the reminiscent of the success of yesterday ‫ we refer to these successful times as the good old days. These good old days depicts in our minds a sort of pseudo happiness ‫ a time when things were quite easy. The thought of these “good old days” comes to our minds when we are facing difficulties ‫ a troubled marriage inspires the thoughts of honeymoon; a man that has not gotten ahead in business thinks of the time when he was working his white-collar job and wishes with all his heart he could find himself back at work; a jobless lady remembers vividly her undergraduate days when she was respected and revered; a guy who lacks cash flow remember the days when his bank account was reading millions.

My daughter is always insisting on watching cartoons; my wife insists on Africa Magic and I have no say on what to watch but grudgingly sit still to watch what they want. It’s always good not to usurp your “Head of the House” power because if you take time to review what they want, you may gain far more from them than you can imagine. This was what happened when I was watching the Disney Classic ‫ The Lion King.

The more I meditate on financial freedom for all, the more it appears like an illusion; an unattainable reach. “The poor we would always have” is a statement made by Jesus Christ.

Jesus Christ definitely has a sense of humor.

I remember my undergraduate days in Ife when you switch on the fluorescent light and species of insects start crawling up to the light tube. This is the kinds of friends that we have these days; as long as you are shining they crawl up to your majesty but when the lights are out and the heats are on, they immediately turn to roaches. Hardly do you have friends that stick to you during the night time of your life but this is when it is assumed that friends are needed.

As long as the earth remain, the sun would always set except in some certain countries where they have the sun all day long; this particular scenario is extremely rare. In the world that most of us live in, the sun rises and sets but we consciously reject this notion in our lives; when what we want don’t happen the way we plan it; when our dreams don’t come as quickly as we want; when we are confused about what to do with our lives; when our desires are not met; when the lady we love doesn’t love us back (the list goes on), we lose our cool and become irrational; our heart gets broken and we move to an illogical mode.
