41 FUNDAMENTAL SUCCESS PRINCIPLES FROM CEO OF SUJIMOTO GROUP. A MUST READ FOR YOU!

 



41 fundamental success principles that have brought me to where anyone can call success.

 1. The No.1 lesson of success is to know what you want, your definite purpose. Without this, failure is guaranteed.

 2. Be an ijebu man in the morning, an Nnewi man in the afternoon, and a man from Kano in the night. You must have discipline in spending. Negotiate to the core, but never negotiate at the expense of quality.

 3. The fundamental failure of any entrepreneur is not the absence of creativity but the presence of mediocrity.

 4. The most important ingredient of success is INTEGRITY. Be a man of your word and let that word be your bond.

 5. The fundamental secret of success is surrounding yourself with assets not liability.

 6. Prudence in spending is an essential part of the life of any successful CEO

 7. Success is a game. Just like the game of chess, victory is determined not only by your ability to discover your opponent’s weakness but also in identifying your own limitations.

 8. Don’t be an ‘I better pass my neighbor.’ An essential secret for success is celebration, the need to celebrate others is vital for your own achievement.

 9. My magnum irritation is not that my peers are so ambitious that they miss their potentials! But that they fear the future and settle for mediocrity.

 10. The bottom is too crowded, move to the top and do something that’s never been done before.

 11. Luxury is not expensive; it is the dedication and passion to deliver luxury that’s expensive

 12. History has proven that your net worth is your network, meeting royalty must not be taken for granted

 13. Innovation is an expensive drug, not meant to cure everyone

 14. When the PESSIMISTS criticize you, and the OPTIMISTS praise you, be the REALIST and focus on your goal.

 15. Thinking big or small is a choice not an obligation. But if you are going to be thinking anyway, ensure to THINK BIG.




 16. Opportunity is a haughty goddess who wastes no time with the pessimist, the unprepared and inactive.

 17. Be deliberate, be prudent, plan. Never make permanent decisions on temporary feelings

 18. Inspiring people remains the depth of my inspiration. Nothing makes me happier than a testimonial from someone saying “Suji, because of you I didn’t give up”

 19. Give the gift of absence to conversations that do not give you essence. Time wasted is time lost

 20. Off plan sales is the fastest secret to sustainable wealth. Don’t wait to buy real estate, buy real estate and wait.

 21. When your neighbor is hungry, your chicken is not safe. Nothing inspires me more than touching the lives of others.

 22. Your yesterday has nothing to do with your tomorrow. Don’t allow your past bad experiences affect your dreams. Go for it!

 23. There’s politics in all businesses, don’t ever allow politics deny you on focusing on your main goals.

 24. Don’t allow anyone kill your dream. Live your dream daily and if you are resilient, you will definitely achieve your dreams.
 25. Luck and excellence starts from preparation. Always be prepared so that when an opportunity presents itself, it would always find you ready.

 26. Be a media guru. The power to continuously engage your target audience is what separates winners from followers

 27. The presence of impatience is not necessarily the absence of virtues. Money waits for no one – be deliberate, be intentional.

 28. Being second best is to be last. People hardly remember deputies.

 29. Negative energy is the fastest way to failure. Don’t see the cup half empty; see it half full30. One event would shape your life either positively or negatively. Whatever the events are, make sure you learn from every experience.

30. One event would shape your life either positively or negatively. Whatever the events are, make sure you learn from every experience.

 31. That you do not have a rich uncle or a powerful aunty or a famous name is not an excuse for mediocrity. Your background must not limit your pursuit for success.

 32. Pressure no fit burst correct pipe. From 2015 till date, the Sujimoto brand is a proof that no matter the economic realities, growth is always a possibility.

 33. Change your mindset from seeking immediate gratification to value contribution.

 34. Failure has no friends, success breeds enemies. Do everything you can to achieve your dreams.

 35. The only offense I committed was to think BIG and I do not apologize

 36. Real success breeds no arrogance. True royalty creates 0 boundaries

 37. Sophistication is the greatest form of luxury. Never settle for less.

 38. Vision plus diligence equates success

 39. Convert your network into your net-worth. Sujimoto commissions are designed to shake your bank account and transform your life

 40. Before, dem say na hype; but now the hype is real. Hustle till your haters become your praise singers

 41. True luxury happens when you lower your standards for no one.
 

 

Finally, always remember the saying that the Road to success is not straight; there is a curve called failure, a loop called confusion, speed bumps called friends, caution lights called family, and you will have flats called jobs. But, if you have a spare called determination, an engine called perseverance, insurance called faith, and a driver called God, you will make it to a place called success and realize that what God cannot do, does not exist!!!

I wish everyone currently on their journey of becoming the very best even as they apply these truths of success into their daily endeavor and pursuit.

OVERCOMING STRESS


Some people are always stress out almost every day the week due to so many reasons or a  reason.

But in this article I want to show you how to overcome stress.

1. Stop over thinking: Some people think too much, you need to stop that. Though you may be faced with one challenge or more but don't allow your challenge/s to make you think too much.

2. Creating time to rest: Some people are too busy with so many activities that they don't have time to rest, if indeed you want to overcome stress you need to create time to rest.

3. Stop too much over labor: Don't over labour your self too much, try to caution it.

4. Have a plan to follow: A person without plan is living a plan-less life. Plan yourself everyday and make sure you strictly follow your plan.

Happy weekend to you all.

AIR - WEATHER CHRISTIANITY

FAIR - WEATHER CHRISTIANITY

Fair - weather Christians

They are weak Christians

They relish wonderful moments

They are steadfast in days of prosperity

They have solid rock faith when the days are rosy

They are bread and butter Christians

They sing the loudest in the best of times

The numbers of answered prayers is their measure of trusting

Fair weather christians

They are oblivious of satanic whiles

They seldom count their blessings in hard times

They forget to be of good cheer as Jesus instructed - John 16:33

They think of drifting and twisting at every mayhem

Are you one of this group: Fair - weather Christians?

Where are the die - hard Christians?

Where are the uncompromising Christians?

Those who sing when the days are dreary

The dogged Christians whose eyes is fasten to the rock which cannot move

The determined Christians - strong Christians

Who saddens the heart of the devil at all times.

Who rejoices in tribulations

Who understands the God of times and seasons

Who faces tough times with amazing calmness and smile

They are not Christians who should be spoonfed

They cherish the word of God and meditate therein -

fervent in prayer; ever consecrated and ever committed to the faith

They even dig deeper in hard times

They see miracles behind every problem

They are possibility thinkers - for they know whom they believe

They are often celebrated thereafter for taking their stand

I beckon on every christian to stand up and proclaim like paul:

Nothing shall separate me from the love of Christ - Romans 8:35

The devil never wins the determined Christians crossing the bridges of adversity

I call for a morphism from fair - weather Christianity to dogged and uncompromising Christianity.

Ogunmodede T, Ajinde.

*CHRISTIAN PERSPECTIVE TOWARDS VALENTINE CELEBRATION*

Firstly, what is Valentine...?
Valentine's Day, or St Valentine's Day, is celebrated every year on 14 February. It's the day when people show their affection for another person or people by sending cards, flowers or chocolates with messages of love.

The main purpose of Valentine are and what we Christian expected to do .....

1. *Love Your Enemies* :
“ If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them ” (Lk 6:32). It is easy to love those who love us back. How about loving those we hate? This Valentine’s Day, what if we all sent a valentine or a letter of forgiveness to someone we have been holding a grudge against? If the person is not alive, it is not prudent, or we are unable to communicate with them, say a prayer for the person.

2.*Pray for Those Who Experience Abuse Instead of Love*:
This Valentine’s Day we can join in prayer for those who experience an abusive, objectifying, and warped view of love. Let’s pray for those forced into prostitution, the healing and conversion of the hearts of women and men involved in the porn industry, men and women addicted to porn, children who are sexually abused, and victims of human trafficking. Humans are made to love, but the list of the many ways we abuse and reduce love is unfortunately endless.

3.*Read the bible*
Read d bible and claim d promise concerning love and pray for those that are not experiencing d real love of CHRIST.

4.*Pray for Vocations to Love*:
All of us are called to a spousal relationship. Some are called to marriage, others to an intimate, consecrated relationship with God. Either way, this Valentine’s Day is a perfect time to pray for those who have not yet found their vocation, those who are discerning, and those who are committing and have committed themselves to a deep call to love.

5. *Pick Your Scripture Valentine*:
I love the internet. How else would it be possible to search the entire Bible in 30 seconds for every occurrence of a word? I just searched the word “stupid” and apparently it shows up in Scripture twelve times. So, anyway, be a little more mature than me and search for the word “heart” – I usually use this web site . One of my favorites is: “ I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you. *I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.” (Ez 36:26). Pick your favorite. This is God’s valentine to you!*

These are just a few ideas. Think of a few of your own and add them in the comments, I would love to read them!
Thanks.

GIVE IT TIME


When someone comes and tells you, "I can't sleep without you, I love you the way you are and I can put up with your good and bad attitude", before you commit your heart to such a person, please, *GIVE IT TIME*.

When You just met someone today and feel like marrying him/her tomorrow, before you do, remember you need to *GIVE IT TIME*.

When you visit your uncle during a vacation for 2 months, don't be carried away that they serve you your preferred food and give you hot water to bath during your first two days don't start making arrangements to relocate to their house, *GIVE IT TIME*.

When a brother visits you and wakes you up by his shouting of prayer from 12 am to 6 am, please don't shut him down, first *GIVE IT TIME*.

When someone joins your fellowship in the first year and he is in every group/dept, please don't rush and make him a leader, rather *GIVE IT TIME*.

When you enter a new environment and everybody worships you and eat your mess don't be carried away just *GIVE IT TIME*.

When someone comes with a new business with unbelievable promises, please before you involve your money, first *GIVE IT TIME*.

When you see a new church in town and you hear their waves, before you conclude about how hot they are, first *GIVE IT TIME*.

Finally, when you are in a cross road of decisions, you don't know what to do, ask the people or person involved to please *GIVE YOU TIME*.

You can be good in giving people tests and trying out who they are.

Some people know how to pass them all but the test of time they will fail.

Time tests Love and proves it.:-

Time tests businesses and authenticates it.

Time tests spirituality and reveals it.

Time tests friendship and uncovers true friends

Time, a good tester.

Don't say that the utilities in your area is now the best until you have *GIVEN IT TIME*.

Your uncle or Father told You that you are useless and worthless and can't amount to anything, just laugh it away and ask them to *GIVE YOU TIME*.

*_Quote me..._*

Consistency with time is the true test of Efficiency.

*Time is a TESTER*.

*Time is an AUTHENTICATOR*.

*Time is a REVEALER.*

*TIME IS STILL A MATTER*.

Thanks for giving this long post TIME...

A painful moment brings quietness & quietness gives inspiration for good thoughts, when all is well you don't think of "what next"... Just *"Give It Time"*
