CHAPTER FIVE
THE POWER OF IDEAS
Ideas are thought products.
Ideas are mental virtues accessible mainly by thinkers.
Ideas are, therefore, the exclusive reserve of addictive thinkers.
Every star is a thinker, and every committed thinker is a potential star.
It is the tasking of the senses that command success. At the root of every gain is the use of the brain. It is brainwork that make things work.
The more you task your brain, the greater the ideas you generate, and the greater the results you command.
When you stop thinking, you start stinking, because it is the thinkers' world.
Thoughts are mental treasures, but are highly volatile.
Isaac became wealthy through divine ideas. He became the first irrigation farmer.
An inspired idea can turn any man to the envy of his world.
Nothing in the world compares with the potency of inspired ideas.
HOW TO ACCESS INSPIRED IDEA
Meditation is one of the vital breeding grounds for inspiration.
Meditation is staying mentally focused on an issue, until the nitty-gritty of it are unfolded to you.
Remember, we are not the light of the Church; we are the light of the world! We are not the salt of the Church; we are the salt of the earth. We have to get back there and influence those places through inspired ideas.
INVEST TIME
Without setting time apart to reason, your rising is not in view.
You don't know true investment until you learn time investment.
The more time you have for reasoning, the more insight you gain, and the greater results you command.
Time is an invaluable asset. Unfortunately most people are abusers of time.
When you go out for eight hours, you must be accountable for at least six of those hours. So stop spending time, start investing it! Every time investor invariably ends up an inventor.
If you want to be a partaker of this outpouring of inspired ideas, you need to set time apart to calmly sit down and calculate your options, and chart a course towards a destination.
Re-organize your office hours to include a reasoning time.
Thinkers invent things that bring improvement. Every time you are committed to thinking, what you are actually doing is programming for improvement.
PONDER POINT
"Knowledge Is Not Marketable; It Is Skill That You Market...
Skill Is Not A Function Of The Papers You Carry;
It Is A Function Of The Tactics...
The Strategies You Engage In Handling Your Assignments!"
