SHOULD EAGLES GO TO SWIMMING SCHOOL.?

BY Prince Wilson... It is true that the purpose of an electric

bulb is to shine light but a bulb can only shine when it is connected to its source which is electricity. Also, man can only function effectively when he is connected

to his source (God). From the day you were conceived in your mother’s belly, you had already been

connected to your source (God) to become a part of this world and to prosper and replenish the earth. My focus here is, if man is connected to his source (God) who said “He has plans for us, plans not of evil

but of good” why then do many of us

struggle with life?

What is happening to many of us is exactly what happens to someone who buys a new sophisticated

mobile phone that he has not used before and begins to use it without reading through the manufacturer’s manual attached to the phone. Obviously, the person will struggle with the phone and I tell you, no matter how clever the person is and no matter how long he tries to study

the phone, he will not know everything about the phone unless he consults the

manufacturer’s manual. It was Myles Munroe who said “when purpose is not known, abuse becomes

inevitable.” So, Should eagles go to swimming school? Let me also ask: should fishes go to football school? Well, you will find out soon if you follow me throughout this article. Who are the fishes and who are the eagles? Where should fishes live and where should eagles live? These two examples all live in

different environments and all do well where they live but then, if you want to

know how lazy a fish is, take it out of its habitat (water) and if you want to kill an eagle, take it into water. The examples in this article are simply referring to man and

the habitats are the various human talents and skills that are innate in man.

Fishes were naturally created to swim and live in water and we cannot do anything to

change that as well as the eagles which were created to fly and soar in the sky. Any

time we try to change this natural plan, we only frustrate or kill the animal. I am not

trying to say you are an eagle or a fish but my point here is that, everyone human

including you has a particular gift right

inside of him that is uniquely given by God

and to excel in life, you must discover this

gift, define it, develop it, and deploy it.

Your gift is your environment and I tell

you, if you leave it, you will just merely

exist instead of living live to the peak.

Remember this, if you work on your life

plan, you will make a fortune, but if you

work on other people’s plan, you will only

make a living (which is not enough).

The reason why most people are struggling

with life today is simply the absence of

purpose. When you know your purpose,

develop and deploy it, you have no reason

to be broke through out your life no matter

your background, with or without a

University degree or even a PhD. Those

people you celebrate everyday like:

PSquare (musician), 2Face Idibia

(musician), Bill Gates(Microsoft), Tiger

Woods(Golf player), Mark Zuckerberg

(facebook), and others, have taken time to

understand and discover what they are on

earth to do and are doing it excellently

today. I always say this “the only people

who have people’s attention are those who

are causing a distraction with their gift.” If

there must be an attraction, then there

must be a distraction. Do you think all of

these guys will earn the kind of money

they earn today if they had depended just

on their certificate? True success does not

come from certificate but from discovery

and deployment of purpose.

Today, I have had the privilege of training

government ministries, business leaders

and young people around the world and

have also been rewarded some good

currencies doing this. I have also

discovered my purpose and I now know

how beautiful life is. Yes! You may be wondering in your mind now, how can I discover my purpose and

how can I become all that God has called me to become? Ok! Another person may be thinking, I have discovered my purpose but how can I start building and deploying it? Well, that is another article for another day but I promise to help you out if you are willing to. And so, if you have questions on some of the things I just shared with

you, kindly email me at missionsinternational@yahoo.com or call 08138122547 and I will take it up from

there. Here’s my final word for you No matter where you are now, you are smarter than

you think, more successful than you know and more excellent than you perceive.

Live purposefully,
