VISIONARIES LEARN


Yesterday, we spoke about Mentoring. The goal of Mentoring is not only to boast in association but to learn, grow and Succeed even much more than the mentor. That's always the desire of every True Mentor.
It's been said that the secret of great men are in their stories. The stories they share either verbally or through books are often inspiring, they motivate others and their success reveals the capacity of humans to achieve greatness despite the odds they might be faced with.

When you read about or listen to someone who has succeeded in his visionary walk, it is important not just to get excited but to reflect and deduce the Principles and the sacrifices those people paid to reach their current level. If you're ever going to go far in your journey of Vision, you're going to have to practice the same principles they did to get the same or better results than they did. One thing you must note is that the experiences would always differ but success would always be achieved provided you engage the Principles and secrets you learnt from their stories.

HOW TO KICK START THE LEARNING PROCESS?

1. Start from the Scriptures! It is written: "For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope." -Romans 15:4
The scriptures were written for our learning not for story telling. From Father Abraham to Bro. Paul, From the First Adam to the Last Adam, each one has something to tell us, the scripture calls them "Cloud of witnesses" I recommend a book by John C. Maxwell titled Running with the Giants.

2. LISTEN TO YOUR MENTORS: as they share their experiences deduce from them the Principles they Daily Engage, their sacrifices. Ask Questions! Pastor Temi will always talk about his Origins in ministry how he left his promising career and dream as a Lawyer to pursue Full Time Ministry just after Youth Service, today the proofs are there. That tells me Purpose is Supreme. He submits to the authority of his Fathers in the Faith. That tells me Mentoring is very important.

QUESTIONS
1. Are you learning something today? What questions are you asking?

Please do drop your questions and comments. They indeed helpful. I believe the Journey has been great. I Celebrate You! Yes You!

Your Friend in the Journey of Purpose,
