LAUNCHING DeeP

If you went fishing and every fish you caught was a fingerling, all you needed to do was to launch deep!
Big Wins are mostly deep deep down; those on the surface were already discovered!

Many of us have dreams/goals (fishes) we want to achieve within a period of time. No doubt about that, but how do we approach such dreams?

The fisherman is not in the sea with a mindset of getting fingerlings to rear (he doesn't have a pond); his aim is to get big fishes to indicate that he has gotten that which he went out for (achieving the goal and not compromising with it). Indeed he will be glad to have caught bigger fishes.
Your set goals you want to achieve (the fishes you want to catch) must not be played with. Playing with your dreams practically means you're playing with your life. The worst case scenario is not having a dream!

The approach and or the methods you are using to achieve your goals is very important! You can dream as wide as the ocean but if you cannot ride a canoe, you cannot sail to fruitful zone of the ocean (your dream).

You either have to learn how to drive a canoe or you employ an expert in canoeing in order to achieve the target you're aiming to reach.
It doesn't matter the size of your dream; what matters is the size of your methods and skills in achieving such dream.
It doesn't cost you a penny for dreaming, but it will cost you millions (not just financial) to achieve that dream.

And so if the methods you're applying do not give you the expected results, you have to change your methods and in changing your methods, you're LAUNCHING DEEP.

You cannot achieve your dreams in a silver plater, if it becomes easier in achieving such dreams, then it is probably a dream of yesteryear which is yielding results because the dreamer had started working on it.
That is not to scare you anyway. When we have the right skills, the right motivation, the right methods coupled with passion, commitment, a determined heart and mind with perseverance as a friend, you're good to go.

God is always with you! He wants you to succeed; play your part and you're winning.
Embark on your dream journey; do not forget to launch deep if need be!

Giving the giver that gives you peace and love from the bosom of the size-less heart all the praise  We are matching up to the ends of the earth to make sure that our task of discipleship really goes aboard; this is the title of our hymn “LIBERATION FOR PEACE”    The Holy Spirit knows boundaries; he cannot be limited in his own jurisdiction.

PEN

This isn’t an acronym. It is a powerful tool. It is blunt but has altered the patterns of history with unequivocal writing success. It has survived all the defining moments through the centuries Ranging from the early reed, quills, and dip pens to the contemporary ballpoint, fountain, and felt pens. History has it that, all users demand a special pen based on the pending purpose of use There is this status symbol attached to any kind of pen that has ever been manufactured. M. Klein and H. W. Wynne had received a US patent for the fountain in 1867. But as early as the 10 th century, the pen had existed.  And until this day, it has metamorphosed through many phases and designs. One of my favourites and most used pen from the 20 th to this century has been Michaels Bich’s Bic pen that was invented in the 1950s. It is simply elegant and mighty. The sword could see itself sharp but the pen is supreme. Talk of brainstorming sessions that led to generati...

Thoughts of a toddler

I am a toddler Nothing I know matters Only my tears, whether crocodile or human, has influence And I will cry my lungs out until my wish is granted  That's their command My heart will passionately be on standby, just in case I need reinforcement At least, it will cleanse my system and keep me healthy I am a toddler with giant steps It will not take long for me to arrive safely into adulthood I can't skip my teenage years either If I get the chance, I will only catch a glimpse of my teen days and return to being a toddler So to my kinsmen, kindly prepare your speeches I can sense only the title has a pleasant feeling The rest are bitter pills but I am not sick too I don't want to choke Please don't proceed with those long speeches about life  I know that when I grow up I'll swallow the pills anyway But I am nurturing my courage  I am making attempts to stand on those tender feet They will be as fit as a fiddle  And that will lead me on I'll ...
