The eagle is considered the king of birds because of its outstanding features. This bird possesses superior faculties and also displays uncommon tendencies that sets it apart from other birds.  In this post we will be examining those features that distinguish the eagle from other birds and the exceptional wisdom that makes it unique.  THE WISDOM OF THE EAGLE  1. EAGLES OFTEN FLY ALONE:  Eagles don't flock. You will never come across a flock of eagles neither will you ever see an eagle flying alongside other birds.  Wisdom tip: The pathway to success for the most part requires an individual pursuit. Congregating with people who are narrow minded can jeopardize your attempts towards success.  If you are an Eagle don't get married to a duck else you will be grounded on the path of destiny. People will relate with you based on what level they are. Their presence in your life will either be a source of limitation or motivation towards success.  2. EAGLES F...

What is wisdom?  There are countless definitions of the word 'wisdom'. Scholars from different generations and from all walks of life have researched this concept and many have come up with propositions and definitions to justify their search.  Our goal is not to bore you with all the definitions that exists with respect to the subject matter but to bring you perspective from the word of God.  Wisdom is God's idea, therefore in other to present an accurate definition of the word we need to consult the author of the concept through His written word.  Wisdom is the ability to view circumstances and situations from God's perspective.  It is the ability to proffer scriptural solutions to life's challenges.  Wisdom is knowing what to do, when to do it, how to do it and with whom to do it.  Wisdom is any principle that is designed or embedded into creation.  Factored into the design of every living thing are principles that we have come to define as the...

PRINCIPLES FOR SUSTAINABLE RELATIONSHIPS (continued)  3. BE AN ACTIVE CONTRIBUTOR  Relationships require the active participation of every party involved in order to thrive. Never be a part of any relationship if you are not willing to be an active contributor.  Don't be a spectator "let's see how this goes"  Don't be a parasite "what's in it for me"  Don't be selfish "my way or the high way"  Don't be a difficult person "I am always right"  Don't be a toxic person "you are nothing without me"  Be a contributor "how can we make this happen"  Let people miss you when you are absent and let them enjoy your company when you are present. Challenge yourself to give more than you take. Let me reiterate a point I made earlier, nobody wants to hang around a parasite. People will discard you and close the door against you in a heart bit when they notice your parasitic tendencies.  Be more conscious about  gi...

1 . To grow up means you no longer need to be supervised before you do what is right. It means you comply with best practices whether someone is watching or not.  You always want to keep an eye on your child because you can't predict their next move. It is difficult to let a child alone in a room without making periodic checks on them. You want to make sure they are not destroying something and when when you ask them to get something done, you always want to put an eye on them to ensure that they comply with your instructions.  However, as an adult if you still require such policing before you do what is right it means that you have not really transited into adulthood. If your boss can not give you an instruction and expect you to do as you were told, if your parents still have to follow up on you just to make sure you are not doing something contrary to what you were told then it means that there is a gap in your transition process.  Taking responsibility is the hallmark...
