Wake up from your slumber

Thu, 27 Jun 2013 Source: Hardi, Ibrahim

For it is often said,those who do not generate great ideas have to serve those who

do, because you only rise to the level of your ideas.

I am sure you have heard some say, “Ah! I thought of that idea first, I just don't

know what happened.” And all we can ask is, “Did you?” because we are not seeing the

manifestation of the ideas. Do you really think Mark Zuckerberg [owner and

co-founder of Face-book] was the first person to think of the idea of such a social

network? Of course not, but he was the first to polish up his idea to that extent.

God can give you ideas, great ideas but with your attitude and doubt you can let

them to accumulate dust. Nobody really appreciates the beauty of a shoe that is

covered with dust, but when nicely polished, Aha, the glory is revealed. Polish does

not only shine the shoe, but it helps in protecting it for a long lasting period. I

hope you got it. I love what Myles Munroe once said, but first he asked a question

before his audience, “Where do you think the most treasures lie in this world.” So

some answered; “In the gold mines” some said,

“diamonds, oil,” etc. Myles surprised everyone with his answer; he said the

greatest treasures are lying in our cemeteries. Let me now explain, He was trying

to emphasize how a lot of people die with big ideas, they never

executed/accomplished, never shared with anyone, but they had ideas of big

businesses, ideas to big inventions, to change this world. Do you want to leave

this earth without giving us your great ideas? Just last week, Eesha who is an 18

years old [American] high school student has invented the fastest phone charger as

of 2013. Her invention makes it possible for you to charge your phone fully within

20 secs. Yes I said twenty seconds. Now, sadly some will even have a hard time to

believe this. Only because you don't know how it's done, it does conclude to be a

lie. Napoleon Hill once said and I quote, “all achievements, all earned riches,

have their beginning in an idea.” Mba Adam Dobino once said, “Ideas acted upon

produces

results” My grand father,Adam Sabaah once said, “PROVISION IS IN THE VISION” He

likes to say, “For every child to manage to ride a bicycle, she has to see/imagine

herself riding it first.” So what are you seeing yourself becoming by end of this

year? Where do you see your family, career, business going? Pastor Chris has taught

extensively on the topic of power of thought in the DVD entitled “Power of

Thoughts.” The ability to imagine is a gift from God to man. Animals are limited in

ability because they cannot imagine nor have ideas. Now stop thinking how an animal

can imagine, let's get back to the subject at hand. Your life today is a reflection

of your predominant imagination, thus your effective imagination. The quality of

ideas that flow through your mind determines the quality of your life. God gives

His ideas to those who believe and act on them. Until we have the capacity to

receive, He will not give. Ideas are spiritual seeds, if

it is a God-idea, it will triumph over every obstacle. You do not have to be

struggling to come up with ideas on how to establish or expand your business. You

have the extra-ordinary strategist inside you. He is gentle, so he will not force

you to receive or execute ideas, he will give the opportunities. Everyday more than

2000 ideas pass through your mind, and each time you act upon them, you are

exercising your ability in you. Every action produces a reaction; and these

reactions eventually produces results. Finally, I have to say this again; “Those

who do not generate ideas have to serve those who do, because you only rise to the

level of your idea”, SEEK TO BECOME AN IDEA GENERATOR. Become the one people ask

for ideas from. You can generate ideas for this week, this month, year, even for

the next ten years, but I have now chosen to be generating ideas for the

generations to come. Ibrahim Hardi 0208235615.!
