Life
is a product of the choices we make. It is either we make our choices or our
choices will make us. Research reveals that 70% of our choices
will either be enjoyed or endured in the fullness of time. When we make
the right choices, the right results follow, but when our choices are wrong then
we are ultimately left to live and deal with the consequences that follow suit.
It is expedient we realize that our choices can either make or break you. One
important decision to make in order to make the best out of your life and secure
the kind of future you always dream about is to intentionally decide to build
the key areas that have the most impact on your life.
In
this article, I’ve come up with the key areas I feel we all need to
intentionally build. Check them out, have a good read and make sure you do your
best to work on these areas.
1.
BUILD
YOUR SPIRITUALITY
It
is very much believed that the spiritual controls the physical.
With this mind, building your spirituality should be your number one priority.
Your relationship with God is a key if you desire to experience life
fulfillment. Your whole life is dependent on Him as He is the only source and
power behind your existence and the success you want to achieve. More so,
building your spirituality is a no-brainer as it will help see you through life
difficulties. You can do so by intentionally practicing spiritual habits such
as: constant fellowship with the Holy Spirit, praying and fasting, reading the Bible
or something else that works for you. Our dissatisfactions in life are as a result
of our separation from God. ‘Just be aware that nothing frightens,
frustrates, worries and kills the devil the most than a believer who is on fire
for God.’
2.
BUILD
HEALTHY HABITS
Health
is wealth, and ensuring you are hale and hearty is important for your life.
It’s often been said that we are all creatures of habit, but the most important
thing to note is that every habit has a consequence be it either good or bad.
It is advisable that you unlearn your bad health habits and also learn or
relearn good health habits so that you can enjoy the benefits of healthy
living. You have the power to create the life you want to live including
learning how to build new healthy habits. Take out time to point out
your good and bad health habits, and make sure you do away with the bad and
work more on living out the good.
3.
BUILD
A STRONG FINANCIAL FOUNDATION
Whether
you like to admit it or not, finance plays a very huge role in both in securing
the future you desire and the kind of life you want for yourself. Many people
have seen their hopes dashed, dreams shattered, and their future delayed
because of financial constraints. They are overwhelmed by debts, financial
lack, bankruptcy, insufficiency, and even live in poverty. As taught by Financial Guru, Robert Kiyosaki,
most people live in the rat race; from paycheck to paycheck with absolutely
nothing left to help them pursue their dreams. But the secret to ending all
these struggles is by building a strong financial foundation for yourself. Building
a strong financial foundation is like constructing a bridge for yourself so
that your journey faster and better without obstruction and delay. It can be
the platform you need in order for you to fulfill your potentials, and can also
be the springboards to enable reach your dreams. Learning about the essence of
financial investments and the necessity to venture into it in order to be on
the path of financial independence and freedom is a way of building a strong
financial foundation for yourself.
4.
BUILD YOUR KNOWLEDGE BANK
There’s
a popular saying that a person is old or young at 80 or 20 if he/she keeps
learning or if he/she stops learning. To reach your dreams and live to the
fullness of your potentials, then you need to hunger and thirst for knowledge.
Nothing beats a person who is constantly making efforts towards becoming
better. The more knowledge you have, the more power you have to change
your world. Intentionally decide to learn, unlearn and relearn every moment of
your life, and I promise you’ll see remarkable changes and results in your
life.
5.
BUILD
MEANINGFUL & POWERFUL RELATIONSHIPS
No
man is self-made and can get to the top alone. You surely need others to be
with you all the way. So, it is expedient you learn how to build meaningful and
powerful relationships. The first and most important you should build is your
relationship is with God. More of which I will write about in my next point.
Then next is building a good relationship with your family. Make out time to
spend with them. The next is building a relationship with people I call “your
reference group.” In this category, you have mentors, friends that love, value
and support what you do and represent, productive protégés, and leaders in your
life, etc. Be intentional about relationship and make sure you find purpose in
them. Remember you can’t be friends with everyone you meet; you can’t be
close to just anybody, and you just can’t please everybody. Choose your
reference group wisely.
