"No one who achieves success does so without acknowledging the help of others. The wise and confident acknowledge this help with gratitude."

People are important! I went for bible study yesterday and one of the things my Pastor(Rev. Gbeminiyi Eboda) said was "When God wants to prosper you, he brings new relationships and people into your life.". Human beings are doors. Human beings are bridges. Human beings are transporting mechanisms. Your sufficiency/prosperity is a function of properly managed relationships.
Human beings are doors. Everyone is looking for better opportunities in life. These opportunities are usually hidden and you have to exert effort to expose them. Everytime something good happens to you, every time you access a new opportunity, it is as a like a new door has been opened to you. These doors are usually attended by people and sometimes you just need to convince them to get it opened.
Human beings are bridges in the sense that they can connect you to more human beings and bring about more opportunities. Do you remember the story of Joseph who was thrown in prison because he was wrongly accused by Potiphar's wife? Joseph helped the butler and wine-bearer to interpret their dreams and when the cup-bearer eventually got to the palace, he was the bridge that connected Joseph to his prosperity. Imagine what would have happened if Joseph hid his talent or was nasty to the cup-bearer.
It is important that you manage relationships properly. If you are going to part ways with someone, make sure that your departure is not done with contempt. Like they say, we meet to part and we part to meet. If you treat someone badly today, remember that that person could be your door or your bridge tomorrow.

Good morning sir @tojukaka.
Great knowing about this now, guess I've been off the steemit platform for a while, wow this is awesome what you are doing. I guess it's time I joined the contest.
I'm grateful to God for having found this platform and also grateful to God for your achievements and continual support to the growth of this community. Keep being amazing. God bless you forever.
Welcome sir
Wonderful! Steemit itself wants consistency not to talk of the series, bring it on, we are here.....lolz
We are grateful, for the awesome relationship and for the people God place in our lives.
Let the challenge continue 😀
You're right. If there's anything we need to be grateful for, it is the people around us. Sometimes, I seem to take people for granted. But thanks to you, I now know I need to be grateful for people in that God passes through people to bless me.
I'm glad my name is being listed as a title contender😎😎
Thank you for the mention. This gratitude challenge is a motivator to be happy for the precious gifts of life.
People are like a covering and we cannot afford to take their presence in our lives for granted. Thanks boss @tojukaka
Am great full, for you bringing this challenge up and I feel honored been mentioned..
Dear Kaka, I'm grateful I have you in my life also 😘
K money as we call you. First, I'm grateful I have people like you in my life who keeps building my economic power. You are such an inspiration to this generation. Your story is one we all are grateful for. Indeed, relationship is the currency we spend in life.
Grateful we are!
Wow
It's such an honour
Thank you @abeem90
We are always a relationship away from a next breakthrough, thus, the value for people. I celebrate you sir. you omitted my name
Thank you for this, but what happens when you try so hard to keep a relationship but the other partner isn't making any effort to do the same?.
Thank you Sir for this opportunity. RESTEEMED.
well done @tojukaka. God bless you real good
I haven't written my gratitude post for today, but I'll have to thank you for creating this challenge.
I thought I'd be difficult to write a gratitude journal, but I actually had to force myself to stop.
When you pause and reflect you find out that there are so many things you should be grateful for.
PS My name's not on your list.
