FOUNDATIONAL RECIPES FOR SUCCESS- Part II

FOUNDATIONAL RECIPES FOR SUCCESS. PART II

In my previous article (You can read up here The Metro-Potters, or Rawfacts Notes)

 I emphasized on the following:

“Whatever you see standing has a foundation, and whatever can no longer stand has an altered Foundation.”

In this article, as I promised in the previous one, I will be analyzing the recipes or branches of Emotional intelligence.

I mentioned that Emotional Intelligence is the ability to monitor one’s own and other people’s emotions and to discriminate between different emotions among peers and your environment successfully.

I listed the following as the branches of Emotional Intelligence.

1-Intrapersonal, 2-Interpersonal, 3-Adaptability 4-Stress Management 5-General Mood.

1-Intrapersonal EQ: The word Intrapersonal means: ‘taking place or existing within the mind’

Merriam-Webster puts it this way; it says Intrapersonal means ‘occurring within the individual mind or self.’

You’ll agree with me that before any success is birthed, it must first be conceived in the mind. Any successful outcome or goal, and aspiration are first conceived in the mind, not on the field.

Note this, “A sharp mind would always produce result, anytime and any day.”

For success to be a reality, it must be first imagined and conceived within. ‘Read Microfacts Media’s Article titled- ‘Imagination, your Greatest Machination’ here http://microfactsmedia.blogspot.com/2015/01/imagination-your-powerful-machination.html for broader details on how the mind works in conceiving.

Very powerful, you’ll have a full grasp.

The next one:

2- Interpersonal EQ:

Advanced English Dictionary and Thesaurus defines it as ‘something occurring among or involving several people. i.e. between two or more people or entities. As in interaction.

Notice this carefully, “Success is not about you alone! You need people!”

You need friends, people of like passions; you also need your enemies as well because they’ll help you remain resilient towards your goals.

Have you ever heard of this maxim? “No one survives alone on the island” The fish, water, bush, animals will all contribute to your successful habitation on the island. Stop acting as if you can get it done all alone, that’s not an emotionally wise thing to do. You need others as well.

In the lifting of other people’s hands your hand is equally lifted.

The next one

3- Adaptability EQ: The ability to change or be changed to fit a changed circumstances.

Your ability to change and quickly adapt to situations while holding on to your aspiration guarantees you success.

Let’s use a Duck and a Hen for example. Duck can survive on the land and also in the sea. Hen on the other hand can survive on the land but would die in the sea. Both are birds, but with different Adaptability skills.

When your circumstances change, will you still stick to your goals or aspiration?

If that friend fails you, will you still succeed? How fast can you adapt with or without external supports?

These are the recipes that make up Emotional Intelligence which is the Foundation of Success.

Apply them if you still desire success and you’ll eventually see the reality or manifestation of your goals and aspiration.

In my next article, I shall complete the rest of the recipes.

But remember that for everything standing, a foundation is supporting it

For you to be successful, you must lay a good foundation.

Foundational Recipes For Success- Part I

 Foundational Recipes For Success- Part I

In this article, I will be analyzing what I call ”The Success Foundational Recipes”.

You will agree with me that everything that’s standing definitely has a foundation.

Success! One of the most uttered words and most desired experiences within the sphere of humanity. We all have different definitions for this common but powerful experience.

I won’t bother creating another definition, I’d rather say success is achieving & fulfilling a desired goal or aspiration.

Notice the key words ‘achieving & fulfilling a desire goals or aspiration.’

For every structure, there are building blocks or organized fragments influencing its standing. In food making, it is called ingredient or recipe. Success also is made up of such building blocks, building blocks which I call ‘Success’ Foundational Recipes’.

Pay attention to this, “Whatever you see standing has a foundation, and whatever can no longer stand has an altered foundation.”

Any successful man had these recipes implemented at different level of the accumulative process of his Success. Truth has it that some successful men are less aware or conscious of these recipes, somehow through their subconscious; they had it applied to their endeavors. Though, the subconscious use of them is not as effective as the conscientious use of them. We can simply say a man who is not appropriately conscious of these recipes is under utilizing their potential and there is no way such man can be as successful as he ought to be.

Before you can ascend to every other branches of success, these recipes must be laid as building blocks of your success foundation. So what are these recipes?

They are comprised in what is called ‘Emotional Intelligence’.

Emotional Intelligence simply means the understanding of emotions and the use of it to relate better with other people, form healthier relationships, achieve greater success in any field of life and lead a more productive lifestyle.

Emotional Intelligence is the ability to monitor one’s own and other people’s emotions. The power to discriminate between different emotions among your peers and physical environment. The ability to perceive, understand, interpret and relate within and without successfully.

“Yes? That a simple thing!”  You may say, but let me short live your thought right now. Remember I said these recipes are comprised in Emotional Intelligence. That is, Emotional Intelligence is a tree with branches. Now, let’s see what these branches are. The recipes we talked of.

Now, these are the components that make up Emotional Intelligence.

Note them down and keep for the next article.

1-Intrapersonal  EQ

2-Interpersonal EQ

3-Adaptability EQ

4-Stress Management EQ

5-Genera Mood EQ

These are the components of Emotional Intelligence that form a structured foundation for success. You may plan, work and execute but if these recipes are not in place, it’s a mere effort that won’t yield a desired goal.

It’s like having the best and fastest Gas Cooker in your kitchen without gas to fuel it.

It’s like having the best and fastest car without Petrol to fuel it.

Having a well structured plan and ideas without Emotional Intelligence is like heading for defected goals and achievements.

Pay attention to this: “The practicability and applicability of the aforementioned recipes are what guarantee success in life.” These are one of the foundations you must build any aspiration on.  They are essential in decision making because they make success easy and attainable.

Observe this intently; 

“Success is easy if the foundational recipes are proportionally applied.”

Warren Buffet (the 3rd wealthiest billionaire in the world presently as this was written) says his outstanding achievement and success can be traced to his emotional intelligence. It’s comprised of 90% while the remaining 10% are other principles.

You see why this is necessary and vital? It’s the foundation that holds every other structures of success.

I will talk about these branches of Emotional Intelligence in my next article.

FEEDING THE UNIVERSE (CAUSALITY) PART II

 FEEDING THE UNIVERSE (CAUSALITY) PART II 

In part 1 of this article, these were some of the major points focused on:

“ For everything we do, we get equal or opposite result”

 I highlighted that whatever you feed the universe with will be fed back to you in the appropriate proportion.

 

In this article, I will deal with what exactly you ought to feed the Universe.

Some of us either deliberately, ignorantly or accidentally feed the Universe, thereby, getting results which most of the time are not as pleasant as what we expect from life.

Sometimes, I personally still accidentally feed the Universe.  

In the time past, I’ve ignorantly fed the Universe and I got my result. I would just have to take responsibility for my past endeavors.

Meanwhile, sometimes, I feed the Universe deliberately and equally got my result.

I made that known to you in order to help you understand that there are different ways the Universe is being fed by you and that it doesn’t matter what manner you fed the Universe with. 

One thing is certain regardless of whatever; you will get a result from whatever you sow, whether deliberately, Naively, or even accidentally. Yes! The Law of Causality is that Mindless(Would prefer the word Programmed).

Trust me, the Universe is keeping the records of every acts. Not just for me alone, but for every actions we collectively release into the vast ocean of energy that surrounds our existence.

See, you need to be deliberate about what you do, say, hear, see and give. Because you will won’t be excused for feeding the universe accidentally or arbitrarily.

Sometimes, I feel like where’s the place of forgiveness from the Divine if the Universe keeps paying us for all our deeds (wrongs or right)?

Have you thought about that too? Have you ponder on that before now?

Well, think about this;

“Do unto others as you want them to do for you”. 

That was a statement made by the Institutor of Christianity who declared he has power to Forgive sins. Namely; Jesus Christ. 

The question is, Why did he made such statement when he possibly could have just told them to do as they pleased and ask for forgiveness? 

The answer lies in the very personality of the Creator himself and the mechanism through which He operates the Universe. He founded the Universe on the Law of Causality and limits every creation within the Judicial arms of this law. 

Jesus Christ who has a perfect Understanding of how the Universe operates and knows the secret to Universal Harmony educated his followers to be sensitive to this law. Why, because it is only natural to get in return whatever you dispensed as an endeavor.

The same thing you do is what will do you. So, the best and only way to attract good things into your life is by doing good and vice versa.

In that simple statement, Jesus established a universal understanding of how the Law of Causality works. This explains why he had to die sinless before humanity can attain Holiness. 

I thought God was powerful and could have just forgave the sins of the whole world without having to orchestrate the death of his son; but if he did it that way, it won’t work, because it would be the highest ranked violation of the Law of Cause and Effect. He was sown and he reaped Holiness abound enough for all men to partake.

I said all of that to make you realize that the law of Causality does not just apply within our little planet earth alone, that it is a Universal Justice system.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Do unto the Universe as you want her to do for you.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Be deliberate about every action so you can be certain of a better consequence.

The law of causality doesn’t have feelings, the Universe doesn’t have emotions that would allow her express mercy, it’s programmed to receive, process, interpret and disseminate equal consequences to the involved organisms.

 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If your result will make you proud, act what will provoke such result.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If your consequences will bring appraisal to you, release the action to the Universe so it can process that consequence to the consciousness and atmosphere of your existence.

But remember this, The Law of Karma/Causality doesn’t take bribe, it only pays back what was dished out.

Do unto others as you want them to do for you; 

do unto the Universe as you want her to do for you

Just A Touch!

Just a touch!
When the music goes off,
While the doors are shut off.
Seeming lonely,
Without your one and only.
Looking very far,
And thinking your love is afar.
Don't ignore the crush;
All you need is just a touch.

Moving pathetically around, 
Though, the feelings are profound. 
Fighting it daily with many thoughts; 
Feeling it like the pain of droughts, 
Doubting less; And also feeling hopeless. 
Worry less; 
keep the crush 
All you need is just a touch.

Love comes in many ways, 
But, it has its own unique ways. 
Many seeks for its touch 
Only few get the truest crush 
We all wished to have a partner 
The one that has a good manner 
But the truth remains the same; 
We all enjoy this love game

Even silvers now glitters, 
So be careful while you filters. 
Mummy says-choose the best, 
I replied-That's my crest. 
Daddy reprimands-you're not serious, 
I thought-this man is furious. 
Friends advised-use your brain! 
Of course, I'm still sane.

I have someone on my mind;
She's been so kind. 
It could be you, 
Hmm-that's just a clue! 
But this is a fork in the road; 
That's why I must not jump like a toad. 
To be candor, my heart craves for just a touch, 
One that will sensitize my crush. 

I look forward to your touch, 
Sure, I won't rush.
I know that one day, 
It could even be today.
That my dream will come true,
Beside me will now be you. 
If you as well have the crush on me, 
Open up, don’t be mean! 

Smile! Smile!! Smile!!!

FEEDING THE UNIVERSE (CAUSALITY)

By the end of this discourse, you’ll know what type of meal you’ve been feeding the Universe. Whether spicy, delicious, sweet or sour meal.

Let me just recapitulate the definition of Causality as mentioned by other great Metro-Potters https://themetropotters.wordpress.com/ who discussed on this topic earlier. 

Causality is the relationship of cause and effect. Simply put., ‘Causality is the principle that ensures that nothing happens without being caused”.

The universe has no feelings, it doesn’t think whether someone else has done the same to you, it only serve you back that which you have served out. For everything we do, we get equal or opposite result.

There must be a sender (You) the message(Actions) the receiver (Universe) and the feedback (Result).

In communication, passing across information must go through some processes before it can be understood.
You’re the sender, the message  (your actions and intents) is what you send, the universe (the receiver) registers,  analyzes, processes and finally gives a feedback (result) to you.
Let me bring this to a closer view for you

Now, let zoom it in a bit.
If you send hatred/evil and your message  (what you intend to cause) that is exactly what the universe will process , analyze and return to you.

You may get instant feedback(result) or get it years later. The universe doesn’t forget, it depends on how fast it processes it. That’s why it’s called a seed.
Infact, you should be afraid when your seed of evil doesn’t sprout on time, the universe has not forgotten, it might come in double folds.  Am I sending or registering fear in your hearts? Not at all! Why would I do that?  I’m only sending or registering a universal secret in your hearts.

The law of karma/causality doesn’t take bribe, it only gives equal result of your actions.
I won’t deceive you, you’re where you’re today because of the seeds you sowed yesterday.
If you want a different level, sow a different seed.

What you do you do, what you get you get! No cheating!  

Do you want a better chance? Do unto others as you want the universe to do for you! That’s the greatest rule in the law of causality ! 

Let me ask this, what have you been feeding the universe? What kind of meal? Delicious, saucy, spicy, sweet or sour meal?

It’s never too late to adjust and start sowing a better seed if you want a better harvest./
This is not about me, not about them(those that hurt you) it’s about You!

Remember the universe has no feelings, it doesn’t know, think whether someone else has done the same to you, it only remembers yours and gives the same back in full measures.
Remember you’re created to make a difference

I’m Rawfacts, I write,I Act,I teach,I learn and I make a difference.

Deeper! Deeper!! Deeper!!!

Deeper! Deeper!! Deeper!!!

Beyond this common 'wonder'
I need to go yonder
"And if we have hope in Christ only for this life, we are the most miserable people in the world." (1 Corinthians 15:19 NLT).
I know there should be more,
The surface I no longer clamour
I want to experience the real deal
The presence that swallows all the ordeal

""But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day."

The experience is meant to be better,
Better than every experience of the latter

Its meant to create a landmark
Coupled with outstanding remark

"Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not."

From day one I know its supernatural
Its outweighs doctrines, its not cultural
The surface alone was not designed to be empty
It should swallow all forms of cruelty

"Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert."

Yes, there's got to be something new
And such is not for the few

If it can worth paying with His life
With the precious blood He paid the price


"If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another."

Every step is meant to be a pilgrimage
As you daily build your image

The experience should be a deeper calling
It's not meant to be a gradual crawling

From the foundations of the earth
To the innermost part of each breath

It's meant to be a deeper walk
Not just tickling talk

All I desire is to be the carrier of your presence
It should be a blessing and not a coincidence

That I may know You and the power of Your resurrection....Amen.
Deeper walk,deeper life!

Till I cross your path again remember you're created to make a difference...#Rawfactsnotes.

Not About Me, Not About Them, but About Him!

Not About Me, Not About Them, but About Him!

When you get close to God
You no longer do things to please men,
Rather, you do things to please God.

When you go deep in God
You no longer do things because of men,
You do things because of God.

When you go deeper in God
You no longer act because men are watching
You act because God lives in you.

When you grow great in God
You no longer do things because you'll be criticised
You do things because God must be glorified.

When God changes your identity
You no longer fronts the lines for God.
You act so that He should increase,while you may decrease.

When God tells you a story
Its not an history,
It's for His Glory.

When God rejects a man
He's totally rejected,
He's standing empty.

When God leaves a man
He's a walking corpse
He's an defenseless soldier
He's a toothless lion.

Let Him that thinks he stands.
Godliness with contentment is still great gains.
Let everyone think soberly of himself.
God still despises the proud and exalts the humble.
The Lord is still coming back and won't tarry.
The road to eternity is still narrow.
Your name is still written in His palm.
God has not changed His Mind; you're still His choice

Till I cross your path again,remember you're created to make a difference....#Rawfactsnotes.
