A lot of people in the world today have dozens of good dreams and ideas, they know what to do, how to do it but lack the will to get it done.
Don't you just hate when that happens? I know I do and will never want that to happen. I think everyone has a fair share of grace to be exceptional in life, and that knowledge should give us right standings to be dreamers in dream mode and ultimately winners.
It is Philippians 2:13 that says and I quote, "For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure." This scripture from the Bible simply states that every of these ideas are dropped by God and he also then gives us the "will" to do and get propelled to act upon that will.
Sadly, many after being willed, stay long enough to not still get the whole point of that idea handed them.
Many are aware they have what it takes to be remarkable, but they are very quick to restrict themselves from achieving full potential. The lazy mode inherent is every human is docile in many but available in a select few. When you have it, it is really active and it just goes all the way up there to mess you up in a beautiful creative way that makes the world a tad better before you appeared.
Many are able to get into their groove through certain therapies, deep thinking, and education, hunger and starvation and or a near death experience. But I am very sure of a simple most interesting way to get there and win, PRAYERS. Yes, pray and do!
The major reason why many don't experience the miraculous as it is evident in them is their, ability to relapsed into a faithless life and live by agreeing that they are meant to be just the way they are--"underachievers because the Almighty God has a purpose for their creation."
Is Spirituality Responsible for our failures and success?
There is truly no spirituality associated with failing if I have to think it right, because, we are all morally wrong about where and how we pledge our loyalty, allegiance and love to God.
On the other hand, we have become so dependent on the theme "Religion" that despite our sinful ways, we blame everything on everyone else except ourselves; we even blame our mistakes on God.
Many hold onto their various beliefs and wisdom to tackle the world the only way they have ever known.
- We go to sleep too early in the day.
I believe we have become too docile and sleepy like the Koala that spends 90% of its day sleeping peacefully.
Sleeping has its defined time, but the sluggard switches their timetable long before they woke up to conform with the night time while it is yet day.
You must be willing and ready to put in work and even sacrifice the majority of your sleep time for the development of your passion and dreams.
- We allow the religious dubiousness of our being teach us the art of stupidity.
Whenever I am approached by a stranger for the first time and they tell me "God Bless you" or they start to lead with some kind of religious gist, my antennae suddenly goes all erect. I am a christian quite alright and will gladly not be seen as one who can be patronized to believing you because you claimed to be a christian as well.
As believers, we are expected to pray without ceasing and that means, there is no time to delay or try to conform with the dictate of the world.
- We ask often than we give.
The man who thinks first of always taking away from the ban will never amount to anything special. Many are very good in praying about self. They can ask for all the best things in the world from God but not for others.
We are mostly in a hurry to get as much as we can instead of giving more than we can hold.
When you have that amazing idea, make sure to ask yourself where that idea will lead you and what you need to do to get it into the hearts of others. When you start doing that, you will not lack the ideas to see it get done.
- We lose focus every time we try to make it about us.
Life is filled with series of stages, pictures and plains. These various stages of life has an effect that renders us proportionally incapable to focus without getting carried away.
When you fail to stay the focus, you will not be able to get a grip on the ingredient you need to cook the good idea you have.
Remember, there are no guarantees that your good idea will be a game changer even for you.
Random fact: Did you know that 90% of the world's most successful ideas never made it to the incubation stage?
Ideas got conceived and buried almost immediately, and they are presently resident in the richest platform man will never have a chance to explore while in life or death.
Winning in life is not about he who starts out first, or he who is more experienced or he who is well versed in their chosen field, it is about he that takes their time to "Will it" hard enough to follow through with their "good ideas".
Stay the focus and follow through with that dream. Dream like its your reality and leave no clues as to the reason why you or anyone think your ideas will fail. Go head on and make your time count.

very true my friend! Ideas is one thing, but executing is different!
Thanks. We always seem too in a hurry to grab at "good ideas" only to drop the ball long before we even start. Execution is key to a good idea.
Just what i needed.... Thanks for sharing these wise words
Thanks.
The headline is soooo superb! Many people are starters but are not finishers.
You are right, we need more of finishers than starters. There are is a scarce supply of finishers and too many starters.
Thanks.
The above is excerpt is buttressed in Ecclesiastics 9:11b "...time and chance happeneth to them all." and Romans 9:15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
:16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.
Thank you @ejemai for always being a source of inspiration to millions.
Thank you for laying bare on this page some sound doctrines.
Praying and doing will help make the sure promises of God happen. Thanks for sharing.
There are two types of people who will tell you that you cannot make a difference in this world, those who are afraid to try and those who are afraid you will succeed. Successful people do what unsuccessful people are not willing to do. Don't wish it were easier, wish you were better.
Thank you @ejemia for this.
Thank you for pointing this out. It only takes just that little to make a difference.
Awesome as expected. I want to assume you're a life coach. These are life principles. The facade of religion has caused a lot of people more harm than good.
My definition of a failure is someone who just chooses to blame other for their predicaments at any given time.
Also, "will it"..... If your idea game and your how to game are on point, your will will get you going.
It's easy to get excited about a new idea...... But when the obstacles of life dampen it's intensity, the only thing that will keep you going even when you're not seeing any result is your will power...
You just gave too much value this morning.... I don't want to clog your comment section. ...but mehn..... You really got the word.
On a final note, the world we live in today, is ruled by Dead men's ideas ...you're alive, who is living by your own ideas?
This is really deep and it got me thinking.., we indeed are living by the rules set down by those from the past and are not yet living for the now.
When are we even going to start living by our own rules?
Thanks for sharing.
You're welcome sir. Do have a great day
So much about religion though. Beats me how stupid, lazy and entitled a lot of people have become on that note. It's all faith, they say.
Well, faith is good! But how about hanging an extra weight of work for a good balance huh!
On ideas and plans:
Sure, plans and talks are pretty cool, i wouldn't snap at it. They keep things in perspective and help you see the big picture. But talk is also cheap. A lotta ideas have been lost before they're even fully conceived. never to be recurrent in a long time. Wish we could all just stop talking and develop the mindset of doing.
Talk indeed is cheap and it just keeps getting cheaper. I like that word often used in the movies, "pit your money where your mouth is". We need our monies where our mouths are so we get into achieving greatness.
Thanks for sharing.
Nice one, thank you for this

While our plans would actually help visualize the big picture, execution would bring life to the big picture.
Plans and execution happens to be two different side of a coin; and you can't purchase value with just one side of a coin.
Thank you @ejemai for sharing.
I totally agree, there is always a payment to be made for success, but as you already know, many feel "entitled" for all the wrong reasons.
Thanks for sharing.
This is cool. You touched all aspect of being successful and procedures to be a failure
..smiles. im going to save this.
Some are good procastinator that they will even keep shifting all their successful dates
If there is something I always pray to be terrible at and never succeed in mastering, it is the "glorious art of procrastination".
Living everyday as it dawns helps you push past those laid down processes of old that hinders. Thanks.
i Trust you on that
Wow! This is so lovely
You just said the truth. Most times what limit us is our inability to stay focus and work hard
No matter how prayerful one can be if you don't put hardwork you can't achieve success
Absolutely spot on sir. Call on God, but keep rowing to the shore. God will always send thr rain, we should clear our field and prepare for it.
God won't do for us, what we need to do for ourselves. Execution is key.
Critical thinking is key to all our challenges to success in our daily living.
Exactly. God won't do for us, what we should do for ourselves.
Put in work back up your prayers
great post! inspired! thank you
Very inspiring one sir. Thank you!
Give more than you can hold. Act on your ideas, they are God given. Hmm! A lot to digest from this. Thank you Sir
This is very reality in which a lot of people live in, and if we don't snap out of making excuses and leaving things we ought to do seating idly, we will end up exploding on the inside, filled with regret.
Glad I found your blog @ejemai
Wow I’m glad I found you to bring balance to my time on steemit. “We lose focus every time we try to make it about us.” This point really spoke to me as I have seen this in my own life! Everytime I forget that this idea of mind is to serve the world and bring value I go off track making wrong decisions! Good content you have here
I agree with you @ejemai! We have so many lazy Christians. Some even think that God will send manna from heaven. Proverbs 6:10–11 says: Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to sleep: So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth, And thy want as an armed man. Thanks for the reminder.
Blessings.
