BEST WRITERS

Jola Tankoka Mar 25 What President Harry S Truman actually said: “Not all readers are leaders, but all leaders are readers.”   Then boom, one I-don’t-know-who from I-don’t-know-where reduced it to, and publicized “Readers are leaders.” Let me tell you this, reader: Your prosperity is in the other people. To be a leader is to lead other people, and books are isolating you from them. I have friends who read a hundred books a year. I’ve heard rumors of some people who read more than that. I have not yet achieved that feat and I do not hope to, but I have read enough to know that books can sap your energy and make you lose faith in humanity and the humans you strive to lead. You become a writer by writing, not by reading how to write. You learn a language by speaking it, not by reading about it and consuming its theories. You become a leader by leading, not by reading how to lead. You become anything by being that thing, not by reading how to be tha...

     Everything in life rises and falls on the place of a man. From my little experience in life,I have come to discover that every man has a place and someone said that in your place you will find grace and outside your place is disgrace. Some peoples place is music that is why they will keep on flourishing if you put them there,if you take them outside music they are doomed. Some people places are: medicine,acting,presenting,fashion designing,painting,carpentry e.t.c. It is one thing to be in your place,its another for you not to be disgraced. Show me a man that has found His place in life and I will show you the man that will never be disgraced. The question you should be asking now is Where is my place? What problem am I on earth to solve?. Then you can begin to venture into what you know how to do best after which you convert the ideas you have to cash. It is not about getting the money first but when you come out with your own style,you will catch the worlds a...

        Champions are not only made in the ring but are recognized in the ring.Generals are not only made in the parade ground but they are made at the war front. There is no General without a scar. A general without a scar will soon be deranked. Life's battle does not go to the stronger or faster man but sooner or later the man that wins is the man that thinks He Can. Whether you think you can or you can you are right. Every general is at the peak. When you get to the top,you will become the topic,and when you become the topic you will surely attain. the peak. As a general it is not about getting the money first but when you come out with your own style you will catch peoples attention after which the money will come. Discipline they say is the soul of an Army. Without discipline you are not qualified to be a general.    Self-discipline is important in life.Generals are hardworking people even the holy book says that"Seeth thou a man dilligent in His ...

      The dreamer is the man that dream dreams and even in the holy book it is said that young men shall see vision and old men shall dream.But I want to charge you all that your dream can never be killed. Kill the dreamer and I will show you the living dream. Don't relate big dreams to small men and don't relate small dreams to big men. Remember the words of Marthin Luther King jnr. "I have a dream" He also said "The dream of our founding fathers is still alive in our time" The America Marthin Luther dreamt of came alive in the time of Barrack Obama. The dreamer can be killed but that very dream of yours can never die. I have a dream that one day Men will come from all over the world to queue at their various embassy to apply for Nigeria Visa. The vision is yet for an appointed Time. Show me a dreamer and I will show you a man that will live forever. Dreams are not for mediocre,it is for those that have a picture of the future. Give a dreamer an inch a...

    In every man is embedded a gift of leadership but not everyone will eventually become a leader. There are 3 things that defines a leader they include: Character,Influence and power. A man without a good character is not fit to lead. Attitude they say determines altitude.Power is good but influence is better. Those that possess influence owns the power. Power they say corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.          Where character and power cannot take you influence will. The litty-gritty of leadership is embedded in influence.The most influential men of our time possesses power and controls it. Influence is about serving. The reason we cannot all be leaders is because not everybody is ready to be a leading-servants. Leadership is about serving. Influence will teach u to serve.          Men that rule are much,men that serve are rare. When you learn how to serve you will know how to lead. Learn to serve those y...

    The fact that you have small stature does not disqualify you to be leader,on the other hand,the fact that you have a huge stature does not guarantee your being a leader.The fact that you came form a poor background,does not stop you form getting to the leading class,on the other hand the fact that you are from a poor background does not disqualify you to be leader.        Until you have the idea to move our people forward to change the world you are not qualified to lead unless you are ready to read and possess the idea to lead.Dress like a leader,walk like a leader,eat like a leader,speak like a leader,read like a leader and before you know you will find yourself in the leading class. The leading class is not a class for those that are not ready take the risk,it is not for the weak, it is not for those that are not willing to face the challenge,it is not for those that are unable to lead the class. The leading class is for those that have a ...

      The problem with many Nigerians that made them kept starting the same journey over and over again. That is why some families can never be up to some others. Are you not tired of keeping the same surname everywhere you go and it does not carry weight,are you not feeling that your fathers name is becoming out dated. Don't you think you need to go beyond limit, think outside the box launch into the deep and become the next star to be celebrated in the world of success.        Don't you feel surprised,amazed and dazzled when you see young guys and ladies of your country in their early 20s and 30s already commanding respect in their own little corner by doing what they knew how to do best. Your greatest question have been,How are they doing it? How they are doing it is not a function of age,it is not a function of who you know, it is not a function of your background, it is not a function of your friends,it is not a function of strength, it is a func...

     The term mindset should not bother you at all. The concept of mindset (mind programming) can be likened to computer programming.The gusto towards achieving a definite aim solely depends on the mindset.          In Robert Kiyosakis  Rich Dad Poor Dad ,  he compared the mindset of his fathers, the rich one and the poor one. While one believed that money is the root of all evil, the other believed that lack of money is the root of all evil. The former remained poor till his death while the other left possessions behind. A man who believes that being in the position of political authority makes a man unclean can never hold a political post regardless of the effort made by the people around him.      If you say to yourself, ‘‘I am a good medical doctor’’, your actions will be directed towards that path. The same notion is applicable when you say, ‘‘I want to be a good doctor’’. I’ll explain; saying...

     Champions are not only made in the stadium but they are recognized in the stadium.the only difference between spectators that go to the stadiums and people that go to the museum is that people that go to the stadium go there to watch reigning champions but people that go to the museum only go there to watch ex-champions.      Which one do you choose to be REIGNING CHAMPION OR EX-CHAMPION. Life's battle does not go to the stronger or faster man but sooner or later the man that wins is the man that thinks He CAN. The journey to stardom has never been easy.     The only way a reigning champion will never be an ex-champion is for Him to be closer to His source of strength. The Elders have a saying. A river that forget its source will soon run dry. If you don't want to be forgotten,stay put to your source of Wisdom, wealth, health, joy and life.       As for me I believe there is nothing God cannot do. He is the Almighty and I...
