FOCUS

-

Hi friends, focus is one ability that grants you audience or ushers you into the world of greatness, fulfilment and satisfaction.


There are 2 keys you must note while focusing:

1. Priorities
2. Concentration

A person/leader who knows his/her priorities but lacks concentration knows what to do but never gets it done. A person/leader with concentration but no priorities has excellence without progress. 

But when a person or leader harnesses both, he/she gains the potential to achieve great things..

Paul, in Philippians 3:12-15 expressed how he narrowed his wedge and focus to the ESSENTIALS.
The secret behind this were:
- He discerned what hindered him.
- He discovered what he wanted.
- He determined how to get it

We live in a world where the devil will constantly use the familiar to distract you but you must determine within yourself to stay focus. If your focus is already intercepted and you are distracted, please do the following and get back on track with your focus:

1. Work on yourself - you are your greatest asset or worst liability.
2. Work on your priorities - fight for the important ones.
3. Work in your strengths - you can reach your potential if you do.
4. Work with your colleagues - you can't be effective alone.

There is still room at the top for you...Go for it!!!

God bless you.

The Iceberg Model: A Systems Thinking Tool

-
Hello my Trendsetting Teens, Today, we want to use this model to explain Systems Thinking as a tool to solve problems and receive desired outcomes. Imagine an iceberg, where: Above the waterline (Visible): Events : The tip of the iceberg, representing individual incidents or symptoms (e.g., a conflict, a problem, or an issue). Below the waterline (Hidden): Patterns : The layer beneath events, revealing recurring themes, cycles, or relationships (e.g., communication breakdowns, power struggles). Structures : The underlying framework, including rules, roles, and processes that shape the system (e.g., organizational design, social norms). Mental Models : The deepest layer, comprising assumptions, beliefs, and values that influence our perceptions and actions (e.g., biases, worldviews). Systems Thinking Connection: Events are symptoms of underlying patterns, structures, and mental models. Addressing only events (the tip) won't solve the problem; we must explore and understand the hidde

DON'T DWELL, POUNCE

 Hi Friend, It is almost getting to the end of a season called 2023 and many are currently taking stock of how the year went. For some, they had many wins, they celebrated, while others, are in a state of gloominess over too many losses they think they recorded. I am sorry to hear that you didn't close the deal, buy the house, get to make the changes and change the trajectory of your life within the time frame you set for yourself but have you ever stop to think that it is not over until it is over? They could be many reasons why it didn't work as planned and you have two options to consider; 1. To either look into the origin of the issue so you can resolve it, learn from it so you can proceed with caution, and instruct others  2. Alternatively, you can choose to reside in a temporary dwelling of self-pity and indulge in sorrow over your losses.  Having a RESPONSE ready is essential for handling life's inevitable challenges. 'But how can I do that?' I can hear you s
