Why you must be courageous

Do you want to reach your full potential and become all you were created to be? Then you must be courageous. No matter who gifted you are, it is going to require more than confidence for you to become successful. It is imperative for you to become courageous. Without courage, you will be stopped in your tracks and will not become all you were created to be. You may be wondering why your giftedness is not enough. I may not have all the answers to this question and many o

Where is racism from?

It has often been said that if we fail to understand history, we are doomed to repeat it. Nothing is truer to this than in the area of racism, because racism has been part of human history for thousands of years now. Although some may erroneously try to make it feel as if racism is a fairly new concept. In the past, the term racism was not used to refer to the manifestation of this evil behavior. I am calling racism evil because anything that distorts that which God has calle

1000 things that will eradicate racism once and for all

If you are reading this article, you care about the strange times we are living in. Before we get into the 1000 things that must be done, we cannot get to the 999 other things if we don’t get this one thing right. First, what is racism? How can be talking about racism when there is only one human race? Some may argue that we already know what racism is because police are killing black men on the streets of the United States. All should condemn the killing of Blackman. But doe

Why you must stop focusing at the past

Do you want to reach your full potential and become all you were created to be? Then you have to stop looking at the past and focus on what lies ahead of you. The past is the past, and there is nothing you can do to change it. You must learn how to leave your past behind you because it is dead weight on you. While there is nothing you can do to change the past, you can leverage it and propel yourself to the next level by learning from the past. All you have to do is learn fro

How to know if you are you a Racist or NOT

Before one can make any attempt to provide any lasting solution, it will be important to expand the definition of racism to encompass other forms of discrimination that exist among all humans, no matter where you find them. Take, for example, tribalism and ethnocentric discrimination. While some will argue that there is a big difference between racism, tribalism, and ethnocentrism, I will be arguing here that there is a great commonality among them because the focus is going

Life is a marathon, not a sprint.

To win, you must know the type of race you are on. Without a proper understanding of the kind of race you are running, you will not prepare adequately, and delivery will be fruitless. The mission of the IEM APPROACH is to inspire, equip, and motivate people to discover God’s great potential in them and take action. You must discover, develop, and deploy to reach your full potential. Part of the process is to understand that you are running a marathon. It is going to require t

Are we at the mercy of racism?

A lot of ink has already been spilled on paper regarding the subject of racism, but the issue seems to be as stubborn as a granite mountain that resists any attempts to be broken down by agents of weathering and mass wasting. While many governments and communities have passed legislation to tame this “monster,” it somehow finds a way to raise its ugly head and stare mockingly at us. Each time the issue of racism is mentioned, tensions are high, reason is thrown out the window

How unconventional wisdom will put an end to racism

The United States of American is a country that would never have existed if the founding fathers allowed conventional wisdom to lead them. Just like Moses going before Pharaoh, who was at that time the most powerful king on earth and asking for the Hebrews to be freed. The founding fathers were asking the most powerful kingdom at that time to stop taxation without representation. This was a challenge that many thought will not go anywhere. After all, the British had the most

One reason you must stop saying but

Do you know that one of your most significant obstacles is the word BUT? Each time you use this three-letter word, it prevents you from taking the action that is necessary to make you successful. The power of but is evident by what you don’t do. Your belief system is ruled by but because you always do what comes after, but. All but does is give you a false sense of being in control. For example, you say that I am ready to start my own business, but I do not have the know-how,

Why you must eliminate but

Do you know you have great potential in you? Then you must eliminate BUT if you are ever to reach your full potential. Just because the word BUT is in the English language does not necessarily mean that you should use it. This three-letter word is so dangerous that you must avoid it like the plague. This three-letter word has killed more dreams, destroyed marriages, and recked lives more than anything else under the sun. How many times have you heard somebody or your safe say

One way to get your breakthrough

Your breakthrough is closer than you think. Instead of focusing on what others are doing and how far they have gone, you should pay close attention to what you are already having. All of us already have what is going to take to move us to the next level. The most significant source of anxiety, dissatisfaction, and disillusionment is envy and jealousy. When you begin to think that others have more than you and that you are at the mercy of your circumstances, it is impossible t

Without boundaries, you will fail

Do you want to reach your full potential? Then you must set boundaries. It is impossible to reach your full potential if your life is not having firm boundaries. When you discoed your full potential, it is will impossible to develop yourself and deploy your giftedness with the rest of the world if you don’t have boundaries. Without boundaries, your life will be like a house open doors and windows that are exposed to wild animals, people, everything, and anything. Nobody inter

Your beliefs will make or break you.

Do you want to reach your full potential? Then you must believe in your God-given abilities, giftedness, and the potential that is already in you. Many people will direct your life and eventually, the outcome if you don’t believe in your uniqueness, your assignment, and the resources at already your disposal. All of us already have what is going to take to make us fulfill our assignment, but we have to believe in our God-given ability for us to reach our full potential. Once

Barriers will make or break you.

Do you want to reach your full potential? Is there a feeling in you that makes you hunger and thirst for more? Do you have dreams that have attracted ridicule, fear, and shame? Are you completely overwhelmed by the enormity of the vision that you are having? You see where you are going, but where you are right now and where you know you are supposed to appear to be disconnected. Nothing around you tells you that you will make it. The end is visible, but there is a big chasm b

Why You MUST remove the Barriers

Do you want to reach your full potential? Then you must remove the barriers that have been placed before you by you and other people. There are two types of barriers, internal and external, and all they want to do is prevent you from reaching your full potential. You may be wondering that barriers exist in the first place. The fact of life is that there are barriers, and those who overcome them become winners and champions. Those who let barriers stop them become underachieve

The beginning is a MUST!

Do you want to reach your full potential? Then you must have begin! You must take the first step if you are going to reach your final destination. Without beginning, it is impossible to reach the end. Unfortunately, some are under the illusion that they can just get to the end with any beginning. These are those who are more concerned about the fruit and the harvest without thinking about the planting. How can you harvest without planting? Is this not tantamount to stealing?

Why You MUST begin small

Do you want to reach your full potential? Then you must begin small! Learn from the seeds around you that grow into giant trees. I hear the mustard seed is one of the smallest, yet it grows into a giant tree. There is tremendous and infinite potential in you, but it will only be maximized if you begin small. Nobody ever takes more than one step at a time. You have to take that first step; then, you can accelerate your speed. Before the acceleration, you must take the first sm

While you may pretend all is well, you know the internal battles and frustrations that confront you daily. You have successfully masked what is going and project to the world that all is well. But in your heart, you know that all is not well. There are different baggages that we collect as we go through life, and at
