Good day my friends. Happy Democracy Day.
I bless God your day is coming on just fine. Hope you are being accommodative of the weather. Our M/I clinic series continues this afternoon with consideration of HOW WE DEAL WITH DEFEATS.
Do we treat them as temporary or fatal? How will you decide?
I have looked at this topic from so many angles and what came to mind is that a man without standards will bend on a crystal clear day and break in the face of a gentle wind. Such a man if he was a tree would be the perfect candidate for making match sticks. He has great potential, can get the big fire started but never remain long enough to see any major accomplishment. To be useful his handlers quickly move on to the next best aspect of him fully expecting that too to be temporary…indeed a shame!!
A man who operates with sound moral standards is like the old blue mahoe buffeted by wind and rain, harassed by the elements, growing gnarled but strong, bruised but solid. Such a man is perfect to be the central weight bearing column in the building of great works and realization of big visions.
So decide whether you are that which they would quickly make match sticks of or whether you are that valuable cherished blue mahoe reserved for the creation of that which is intended to last and serve for generations.
Do you know that we have the choice of making each day whatever we wish it to be? The circumstances and situations will change, generally we have no control over the initial occurrences, however, ultimately it is how we decide to respond which will make the difference. We must always choose to see ourselves as a victors and not victims in whatever the situation we may find ourselves. To do otherwise is to turn temporary defeat into a fatal loss. An individual who has made effective effort in himself easily finds the truth in this admonition. Medallion76 Security M/I Clinic teaches that in every failure there is an equal or greater opportunity to be exploited and embraced.
Those who are most likely to turn defeat into opportunity have a clear vision of their purpose in life. “Vision is the source of hope and life”. To remain hopeful therefore in the face of challenges it’s critical that we develop a clear vision of where we wish to be. As a man thinks, so will he be. Our thoughts have the power to transform our lives and define our abilities hence you must first define a clear vision and then inspire others to corporately work towards its realisation.
A clear vision helps to define purpose which in turn guides ones achievements. The creation of a highly emotionalized vision is one of the critical ingredients for success and also for effective self development. Temporary defeat therefore becomes a constant in the journey of those who secure clearly their vision; they learn to embrace failure as a necessity of growth and a platform for inspiring great achievement.
The decision between temporary failure or fatal loss holds great potency for undergirding one’s life. Choose therefore to always find the possibilities in the moments of failures.
Remember most earnestly that in doing the right thing is not always easy but ones willingness to do so even in the face of great personal challenges is the defining behaviour of a great person. Our mission is to find our true greatness. Being intentionally courageous is one ingredient we continuously seek embrace on this journey.
Finally, my candid advice is that you have to be sound in your thinking and visionary in your approach to life. Decide always to be your greatest self PERIOD!!!
I remain your always humble…
