​MAKE A LIST

The day you discover that you have something to offer is certainly not the day you get paid for it. From the day you realize you have something to offer to the day people begin to pay to have it, certain things must happen. Your gift must go through the necessary processes. There is a series where I dealt with the process, I’ll recommend that you read it.

If your gift must go through the process, it then means that there are certain things you must do to take your potential from conception to delivery. 

One of the things you must do is to make a list. Nobody prepares a good meal that people will pay to have without a list. You must make a list of all the things you need to prepare the meal. Your giftings will not just manifest for all to appreciate, there are things that will ensure that it manifests.

This list should contain all the necessary ingredients for the preparation of your servable gift. Everything you need should be outlined. You don’t need to be conservative about it, make it holistic. At this stage, nothing should be left out. You are permitted to put all ingredients into consideration.

Sit back today, think about all the things that are needed for you to make your gift attractive and tasty.

GIFTAURANT (TRAILER)

​Have you walked into a restaurant to eat and by the time you see the price of a plate of food you imagine preparing a pot of food with that same amount? I know you are all boxed up now and you’ve got about 6 digits or more in your bank account that you can comfortably afford to do daily lunch at those exotic restaurants. However, I believe you must have shared the same thought some time along the way.

That’s not as much a bordering issue as to why the same plate of food will go for extremely disparing prices at different places. The price of a plate of food at McDonalds is sure different from the price at Genesis. They are not at the same pedigree, hence their prices will differ.

Our gifts and talents are like that. The amount I will pay Beyonce for a one hour performance is different from what I will pay Alexandria Burke to perform for the same time interval. The difference is pedigree.

No one goes to a restaurant and pays for food that is not properly prepared. I do not have a problem if you want to get paid for offering the services of your gift, but can you boldly say that your gift is rich and nutritious? 

Well, I will take time and deal with this issue in this series. I trust that at the end, you will rise to the level where you can offer what you have for a token and you will get paid for it.

​SELF IMPRISONED

Have you ever spoken with an incarcerated fellow before? Why do you think a lot of people are scared of going to jail? You cannot exhaustively come to an analytical conclusion about the kind of emotional dysfunction that is associated with incarceration. Every prisoner hopes that either time flies or their term gets reduced or even a pardon be granted them.
I can understand if you are imprisoned as a result of an offence you committed. But where it beats me is when you lock yourself in a prison by yourself. Why on earth will you imprison yourself? Why would you be your own jailor? Is it not crazy that you have denied yourself freedom all by yourself?
What is this little writer saying?
Do you not know that when you let hurt, bitterness and hate lurk around your mind, you are a prisoner?

 

 

An unforgiving heart is an imprisoned heart.

 

Let me bring my thought to where you live. Have you not noticed that when someone hurts you and you do not address it and let it linger, you automatically loose your peace whenever that person shows up? To even make matters worse, the supposed offender, sometimes, is totally unaware that you have been offended! If you find yourself around the neighborhood of my thought, you need to relocate. You need to set yourself free.

Stop deceiving yourself with this sense of entitlement that you feel. I know you are expecting your offender to realize it and apologize, it might not happen. You need to let go. You need to go find that person and sincerely forgive him or her.
You are the one who put yourself in that prison, and you will be the one to let yourself out. I dare you to take that bold step to freedom today and let go of every hurt and bitterness. You will be better for it.
