870. Why People Fail To Live Their Purpose Even If They Wanted To


🎉 New #Podcast!

The paradox in life is that at times we don't experience that which we desire and don't live the kind of life we want even if the possibility is there.

That's why we have very many folks who fail to live their purpose in life even if they wanted. It's a common phenomenon. What we need to figure out is: why is that the case?

869. Six Ways To Raise A Purpose Driven Family


🎉 New #Podcast!

The world today is transformed through our collective effort. I do believe that the role of the family in societal transformation should be highlighted even more. When we begin to have these conversations, we begin to capture the vision of purpose driven families.

It shouldn't be a foreign thing for a family to have a transformation vision for the community. It should start being normal. Here are the several ways we can build such a family.

868. How Involving The Family In Planning Helps Build It's Purpose


🎉 New #Podcast!

 

If you are building a Purpose-driven family, then it follows that the family has to be involved in it. Purpose and vision are spiritual and the way they are transferred to others is through different ways. 

 

In one way, vision and purpose are caught when passion is involved in it. On the other hand, the family gets this vision and purpose when they are privy to it's working through and through.

867. The Role Values Play in Buidling A Purpose Driven Family


🎉 New #Podcast!

Identity precedes character for the most part. One of the things that drives out identity is what we choose to place premium value upon. If you value sacrifice, then your actions will be called up commensurate to that value.

It therefore follows that in building a purpose-driven family, identity of family values will be instrumental for success. Listen to this.

866. How Celebrating Individual Uniqueness Builds A Purpose-Driven Family


🎉 New #Podcast!

The greatest sin a family can commit is to compare one member of the family to another and find one of them wanting at least using that yardstick of comparison. It is sinister to say the least. However, due to purpose ignorance, this case is prevalent the word over.

In building a purpose driven family, one needs to balance between the vision of the family and the individual purpose and passion of each member. Listen to this.

865. How A Family Vision Makes it Purpose-Driven


🎉 New #Podcast!

What we need to answer is this: does a family need to have the capacity to deploy it's purpose before they can be a purpose-driven? In other words, one might ask: what's the reason for downloading a huge purpose for the family if you cannot fulfill it?

In this episode, that question is succinctly answered and in addition, we also show you the second way you can built a purpose-driven family. Listen to this.

864. The First Step In Raising A Purpose Driven Family


🎉 New #Podcast!

No. It's not going to happen arbitrarily. The fact that a purpose-driven family is the ideal to have doesn't mean that it will happen by itself. It is possible to have the whole family live purposeless and still have some semblance of success, but that way, something is always missing.

For a purpose-driven family, we will have to be intentional about it. When we get intentional, we realize then that it has always been possible to do it all along. Here is where we need to start from. Listen to this.

863. Why Purpose Driven Families Have Always Existed


🎉 New #Podcast!

What I am advocating for is not a foreign ideology. Purpose driven families are not a thing of the West or the modern world. If anything, the modern world has moved away from Purpose driven families to just being independent and purposeless.

Now more than ever is the time to craft our families to have an agenda in society that is far reaching above the normal survival and nurturing. Listen to this.

862. What If The Family Had Purpose Beyond Breeding and Nurturing


🎉 New #Podcast!

Imagine if it was a natural thing for families to have a mandate beyond nurturing children. Imagine if the purpose of a family had far reaching impact in society and at times even in the world? And no, I am not just talking about business, but impact all spheres.

Wouldn't that change stuff a bit? I think we need to start having these serious Conversations as we go along. Here is my argument in this episode, check it out.

861. The Importance of Raising Purpose-Driven Families


🎉 New #Podcast!

Unfortunately, when we say that "the family is the basic building block of society", we are mostly thinking about breeding and nurturing. As such, we live in families that exemplify no purpose beyond the basics of growth and development.

Could it be that we can have our consciousness pricked so we can start raising purpose-driven families that look beyond survival and on to impact and transformation? Listen to this.

860. Four Reasons Why We Should Not Blame The Education System


🎉 New #Podcast!

Well, I am not saying that it's perfect. I am not saying that there is nothing wrong with the education system. Far from it. All I am saying is that the collosal blame on the system is unfair considering several things.

Sure enough, it needs to be improved but I can tell you that you can improve it all you want but if society does not change, you will be doing useless work. Here is a summary of why we shouldn't be blaming the education systems.

859. No. The Education System Is Not Raising Zombies, but Society At Large Is


🎉 New #Podcast!

We blame the education system for raising zombies... people who can't think for themselves, own a decision, make a recommendation or any of the self leadership stuff.

We would be very wrong in doing that. Ask yourself this: whose prerogative is it to raise leaders? Whose responsibility is it to raise self leaders and critical thinkers? The school system? Think again as you listen to this.

858. Instead of Blaming The Education System, Let's Change Our Expectations


🎉 New #Podcast!

If you were to line up the people that have a bone to pick with the education system, you will have several miles of line of humanity, a large percentage of which are the products of the self same education system they are blaming.

At times, talk is cheap. I am contending that this blame is unfair because it needs to be painted elsewhere for the very reason that education doesn't exist in a vacuum. Listen to this.

857. It is Not The Education System To Blame, It is Something Else


🎉 New #Podcast!

If the education system was wrong to the extent that it has been blamed, how come it IS still producing? How come it's still giving us skilled labor?

We err greatly when we compartmentalize education from society and it's unchanging expectations and status quo. We blame it as if it's existing in a bubble. Every time you are blaming the system, you are letting someone else off the hook. Listen to this.

856. Wait A Minute. Stop Blaming The Education System


🎉 New #Podcast!

We all have been guilty of this, at least I have. People who once were illiterate and ignorant have now gained so much knowledge and cognitive skills from the education system that they are now able to blame it for failures in society. Paradoxical.

I invite us to take a review of ourselves and THINK again. They system isn't to blame, at least not 100%. Even in this day and age, it is still helping millions, if not billions the world over. Listen to this.

853. How Experimental and Experiential Learning Helps in Raising Purpose-Driven Children


🎉 New #Podcast! 

 

One of the things we blame the education systems of the world today is that it's so strong on theory and so thin on practical. As the world progresses each waking dispensation, we realize that theory can be Googled but practical and experiential learning can't.

851. How Answering the 'Why' Question Leads Children To Purpose


🎉 New #Podcast!

Obviously in life questions are answers. In raising purpose driven children, the idea of answering their "why" questions is novel and noble. When someone asks you a question starting with "why", for the most part, the answer you will give would explain purpose.

Children can be very inquisitive and that's why it is important to be patient with them especially when it comes to answering this question. Listen to this.

Money has it's use. They say that it is neutral but only takes the attitude of the one in possession of it. That's why the conversation on money will never end.

It is an opportunity for us to use money and it's purpose to start teaching children about their purpose in life. Raising purpose driven children can be done by talking to them about money in it's entirety.

Otherwise, money becomes purpose to them, and for the most part, this never ends well.

846. The Downfalls of Not Raising Purpose Driven Children

One of the biggest mistakes we make in life is to look for a silver bullet especially in "doing life". For instance, if you find me proclaiming that purpose pursuit is the silver bullet in life, I would not be speaking the truth in it's entirety.

 

Clearly, there are merits to purpose pursuit as there are demerits in not pursuing it. If we are raising children, increasingly, there are quite a number of disadvantages in not leading them to purpose. This is worth noting, so listen to this.

Our world today is totally different from the world our fathers and mothers found themselves growing up in. Today, if you talked to several HR practitioners, they will tell you that getting the right person for any vacancy is one of the toughest thing.

I saw an unfortunate infographic this morning deriving more than ten similarities between Prison and Formal school. It's somehow true and quiet unfortunate.

One fundamental perspective we must have in this life is about control. Between you and God, who is in charge? If it is God in charge, what part do you and I have to play? Do we become robots?

Clearly, our success or otherwise is predicted on this perspective. Those who think it is God in charge will mostly do all they can to appease God so they can succeed. Those who know God has put them in charge will act accordingly.
