LIFE IS LIKE A RIVER PART 2

DAY FOUR:
Today's Quote:
“Only I can change my life. No one else can do it for me.” Carol Burnett


I am so excited to be with you today as I share with you the part 2 of the article "Life is like a river" and as you go along I encourage you to read through with an open mind, open heart and if you have any question don't fail to contact me. That said, here we go.
LIFE IS LIKE A RIVER PART 2:
 How do you recover when life gives you blow on the head or knock you down? Let's look at the river for example. The river will at times change direction because of obstacles encountered, but will continue the journey to its destination. When one path is closed it seeks another path. So borrow a leaf from the river when life's obstacles turn up.
The river never passes the same point twice and is only at that point for the precise moment it is there. It flows immediately to the next point in its journey. It does not normally backtrack. Those few times it does, it becomes stagnant and brackish. The river does not struggle and strain, it simply flows on until it reaches its destination.
In life, remain focus, obstacles are meant to distract you. Instead of breaking you, let it strengthen you.
Again, the river is patient, for it knows it will eventually reach its destination. It is also consistent and persistent.
In life we should learn to be patient, consistent, and persistent just like the river. Think of it. You couldn't be here on earth if God doesn't need you. You are relevant to creation.
NEXT: LIFE IS A JOURNEY

MY WISH FOR YOU TODAY:
Wishing you a positive and a new hope for a fresh start. May your day be filled with celebrations.  See you tomorrow.

BLESS YOU.

He who Fights to Fit, will Survive to Succeed!” - Israelmore Ayivor Good morning and welcome to day five of Andy Omoregie Daily Inspirational Dose. According to Ray Goforth, “There are two types of people who will tell you that you cannot make a difference in this world. Those who are afraid to try and those who are afraid you will succeed” My advice for you today is that you should never stop believing in yourself. Today article will inspire and drive you to self-fulfillment and accomplishment. Rediscover and renew yourself. Have fun. FAILURE AND REJECTION, MAKES YOU STRONGER: In life, failure and rejection is a learning process instead of disappointment. Though as human, we fear failure and rejection but in reality every use of the word “no” is an opportunity to work harder and turn that “no” into “yes.” In the immortal words of Napoleon Hill, “One of the most causes of fa...

THE BEAUTY OF A RIVER

SEASON TWO: DAY FOUR: Today’s Quote: “Never insult an alligator until after you have crossed the river.”-Cordell Hull Oftentimes, the dark, unending, winding, confusing, trials and tribulations are simply disguised to a glorious path. No matter how dark is the night it will always break into day. Let’s keep hope alive. Happy new day and I hope it's getting to a great start. Welcome to day four of “Andy Omoregie Daily Inspirational Dose” THE BEAUTY OF A RIVER: When I was a child growing up in my hometown Benin-City, I used to go to the river in my village. That was the source of our daily water. I was always fascinated by the calmness and stillness of the river. It’s just there waiting, as people of all ages would gather to fetch water or play by the river. With this I totally agree with Hal Boyle when he said, “What makes a river so restful to people is that it doesn't have any doubt - it is sure to get where it is going, and it doesn't want to go anyw...
