Look backward: Here I do not mean you should hold on to the past by
not letting it pass. We must learn to forge ahead for better opportunities. In
this case, we must be able to ask ourselves various questions. Why didn’t they
pick me? Why the relationship didn’t work out? Why is there constant drop in
patronage and supply? What really went wrong and how? Why didn’t I do well in
my last examination? Etc. This is going back to the drawing board. This is
where we compare our actual performance with the expected one. So that we can
make an adequate adjustment when and where necessary. It takes a high level of INSANITY to be doing things the same way and expecting different results.
Look upward: This is where the supreme power of God comes into
play. There is nothing impossible with him. He gives direction and orders steps
at every point in time. We were taught in school that every entrepreneur needs
the 4ps (product, price, place and promotion) to win the market share. But I
introduce to you the 5th P, which is called Prayer. At times we get
confused and we begin to ask questions, why is this thing not working after the
application of these principles? That tells us that, there is an invisible force
somewhere that controls the physical. Therefore, we must listen, obey
instructions and go in faith with God. Every one of them that did not go in
faith with him came back with evil report.
Look inward: Every man has the power to create and rule his world
from the available resources at his disposal. The question is , what do you
have in your hand? This could be your
gift, skill, idea, talent and general abilities. It is what you have that He multiplies.
God does not perform magic. There is something everyman can do uniquely. Until Moses realized the potency of his rod,
the best the rod could do was to tend sheep. Jacob never knew he was sleeping beside
his miracle. You just need to relax at times and be sensitive to your
environment, then the way out would be revealed to you. There are a lot of
problems crying for solution where you reside.
Look outward: No man is an island as it is usually said. No man
will get to the point that he would not be in need of the other person. It is
only God that can start and finish project on His own without the help of any man. You
will always be in need of both human and materials around you. It could be
information, seminars, advice, encouragement, financial support etc. The world
is a system. No man can survive on his own. Therefore, do not keep to yourself.
If a man tells you No, go to the other person. Always seek counsel and
opportunity around. There is always a way out. “The labor of fools wears them
out because they cannot locate the market”
Move forward: You do not gather resources and remain where you are.
You must put them into use. You may stumble along the way, but you keep moving.
Do babies quit walking because they fall? No! They cry, rise and continue to
walk. If they quit walking because they fall, how would they know how to walk
rightly? “Every one of them that complained about the challenge and distance of
the journey did not get to the Promised Land”.
Do not look downward: Any man who walks facing down is a disaster
going somewhere to happen. It is a posture of worry, stagnancy, regret,
hopelessness and discouragement. Every driver must face his front. Those who
dwell with this ideology, do not progress in life.
