AS LONG AS THE BOOK IS CLOSED, THE STRUGGLE  CONTINUES. “When purpose is not discovered, living becomes nothing but a struggle for survival” — Olakunle Orimaye Paul Life is meant to be lived not endured. The earlier you understand this, the better it is for you. Life is not just about going to school, getting a degree, getting a job, marrying, retiring and dying. T his is actually the orientation of many of us  but, life is more than that. There’s more to life than just waking up, going to work, coming back and going back again the next day.

TAKING RESPONSIBILITY  In life, everyone is in the race to be successful, to live a life that is meaningful and great. There is no doubt, we all want to be successful in our various endeavors. As good as this is, they do not, however, just come to us on a platter of gold. If riches were horses, they say, beggars would ride. There are some things that we must not only understand, but also engage, in order for us to be able to achieve our God given goals, become what we aspire to become and fulfill the purpose of God for our lives.

One thing that God has so much bless humanity with is, “TIME”. Time is a universal commodity, as we usually say, and of course that’s truth. It is like a universal currency of the same value given to everyone freely. Another thing we need to understand about time is that it is a very critical factor to success in life. Without a proper understanding of the essence of time, one can hardly achieve anything worthwhile in life, as far as time is very much concerned. Doesn’t it interest us to know that the same 24 hours given to a very rich successful man is the same given to one is not ...
