August
We definitely have some readers here that are August born, so I am offering you a couple of ideas you need to know about your birth month and this is based just on astrology. Now, if you are one or related to one, just read.
The month of August (July 23- August 21) is dominated by the zodiac sign Leo. the last few days of August have the zodiac sign of Virgo.

A Leo possesses a positive outlook towards life and is very enthusiastic and is full of life. He/she is proud and determined and is also a great achiever who sets examples for others. Leos are genuine friends and are extremely loyal in their relationships.
However, their self-centered nature and the tendency to dominate others are among their major negative traits. They are attention-seekers and can be very demanding at times. However, Leos are born leaders and whether consciously or unconsciously, they like to rule.
They are brave and fearless when it comes to confrontation and are natural leaders. They take pride in themselves and possess an extreme sense of supremacy, just like the Lion itself.

*They are constantly out shining others-
The powerful star, Sun, rules the Month of August and the ruling zodiac of the month is the regal lion, Leo. Like the Sun, individuals born in this month are ruled by the Sun as they derive their life's force and energy from this star. Individuals born under the Leo zodiac sign outshine others with their inner light, dynamic and magnanimous nature. Like the never-fading light of the Sun, they achieve their highest goals, fame and fortune in their life.

*Personality-
The regal Leos have high tastes in art, food, culture and dabble in medicine, research oriented and higher management jobs. They are always looking for opportunities where they can show off their skills and take charge of situations. Like the life-giving rays of the sun, Leo individuals spread, light, love and warmth everywhere they go. They can achieve many milestones only if they can keep their egos in check and tone down their authoritative nature.

*Arrogant but can be humble-
August borns hate to be tamed. Yet, they need to control their creative force as they might end up burning themselves as well as the others. They strong people both physically as well as emotionally, and are self-motivated. They have a strong dominant side as well yet they have an uncanny ability to nurture and care for the people they love. Surprisingly, the seemingly arrogant August borns can teach you a lesson or two in humility.

*Good Leaders-
They make good leaders, thrive in the limelight, and enjoy appreciation. Nevertheless, beware as they are prone to destructive emotional outbursts and their pride can come in the way of progress. If you are working with an August born Leo, it is up to you to work around their powerful energy and get organised. If you manage this feat, they will learn to respect you and think of you as equals. However, Leos are eccentric creatures and can very unpredictable.

*Soft but with  love for a challenge-

The courageous Lion is a softy at heart but will never back out of a challenge. They always face adversities in the face and are diligent. The women born in the month of August are often stunning, have a certain magnetic quality about them that easily attracts others towards them. They are intellectuals and make great moms. However, they can be a very demanding parent, often wanting their children to live their own dreams.

*Fear of darkness but posses an agile mind-
Because August born individuals derive their energies from the Sun, they may fear the dark. They hate uncertainties and fear death. However, they gifted with a strong mind and body. They are accident prone and have weak knees, joint areas and back.

Life_Changing Statements: Every single word counts greatly!

Below are 20 life teaching lessons. I urge you to take just 3 minutes and ponder over them. They  are life-changing statements:

1. Take risks in your life. If you win, you can lead; if you lose, you can guide.

2. People are not what they say but what they do; so judge them not from their words but from their actions.

3. When someone hurts you, don't feel bad because it's a law of nature that the tree that bears the sweetest fruits gets maximum number of stones.

4. Take whatever you can from your life because when life starts taking from you, it takes even your last breath.

5. In this world, people will always throw stones on the path of your success. It depends on what you make from them - a wall or a bridge.

6. Challenges make life interesting; overcoming them make life meaningful.

7. There is no joy in victory without running the risk of defeat.

8. A path without obstacles leads nowhere.

9. Past is a nice place to visit but certainly not a good place to stay.

10. You can't have a better tomorrow if you are thinking about yesterday all the time.

11. If what you did yesterday still looks big to you, then you haven't done much today.

12. If you don't build your dreams, someone else will hire you to build theirs.

13. If you don't climb the mountain; you can't view the plain.

14. Don't leave it idle - use your brain.

15. You are not paid for having brain, you are only rewarded for using it intelligently.

16. It is not what you don't have that limits you; it is what you have but don't know how to use.

17. What you fail to learn might teach you a lesson.

18. The difference between a corrupt person and an honest person is: The corrupt person has a price while the honest person has a value.

19. If you succeed in cheating someone, don't think that the person is a fool...... Realize that the person trusted you much more than you deserved.

20. Honesty is an expensive gift; don't expect it from cheap people.

1 Corinthians 10 VS 13

"Every test you have experienced is the kind that normally comes to people. But God keeps His promise, and He will not allow you to be tested beyond your power to remain firm; at the time you are put to test, He will give you the strength to endure it, and so provide you with a way out."

You got the ability?
Then stand up from your comfort zone and apply it

THE WIND OF LIFE

When the wind blows, the branches in a tree will dance and laugh because it's strength is from the root.

Try to have an alternative.
Never rely solely on your self.
Have a support system in as much you try all by yourself.
Find a shoulder to lean on.
Find a root to hang on if the wind of life blows.

ITS BETTER TO WIN THE WAR

Some words are better left unsaid.

You can walk away and loose the argument

LEARN TO BE STRONG ON YOUR OWN

One does not take medicine on behalf of the sick.
Meaning: one must know that a stage in life he or she must walk alone.
Life they say is per head.

Learn how to depend on yourself and cut off the path of you that think you cannot survive without people.
Peace.

DO THE RIGHT THING AT RIGHT TIME.

Posterity will never forgive an elder who went to sleep at noon while goats eats his barns of yam.

Utilize every of your opportunity at our disposal.

The moon moves slowly but it crosses the town.
You see my brothers, no matter how small you start you must be willing to finish.

Start little
"Remember that the rock by the water never stops the river from flowing.

These seven steps are quite simple and will enable you to achieve your goals faster. They are outlined below.

Step1: Decide Exactly What You Want.

Step 2: Write it Down. Written goals can be seen, read and easily modified.

Step 3: Set a Deadline for Your Goal. Setting a deadline for your goal keeps you time conscious. It ensures that you work more than ever.But deadlines can also be changed because you either meet up with it, finish before it or even not meeting up with it.

Step 4: Make A List of Anything that Ensures You Achieve Your Goals. It is advisable that you know your obstacles, know and list your difficulties. Know and list the additional knowledge and material required for your goal to be a success. Make a list of people whose support are needed for your goal. Also, take note of everything that you will need to keep yourself abreast with the task ahead.

Step 5: Organize Your List By Both Sequence and Priority. Through sequence, it enables you to know what is the first, second or later thing to do. But when organized with priority, it enables you to know which is more important to do.

Step 6: Take Action on Your Plan Immediately. You are a winner, so take the first step. Just get going and busy. Always follow according to your own plan. Do not hinder your progress because of failure. Plan again and continue with your goal.

Step 7: Do Something Everyday that Moves You in the Direction of Your Goal. Always do something each day of the week to take you forward to your goal. If you do something everyday it will inspire you, motivate you and energize you toward achieving any set goal.

FORGIVENESS

To set your spirit free
And give wings to the soul to fly
You must forgive.

To set your enemies free
And give them the chance to repent
You must forgive.

To set a love free
And let it choose and roam within the contents of your affairs
You must forgive.

And behold when you forgive you should know it's not your offenders you set free
But you are the soul that was set free
Peace....

Things to remember as you go through life....

Remember the following as you go through life.

1. Do not bear grudge towards those who are not good to you. No one has the responsibility of treating you well, except your mother and I.

To those who are good to you, you have to treasure it and be thankful, and ALSO you have to be cautious, because, everyone has a motive for every move. When a person is good to you, it does not mean he really will be good to you. You have to be careful, don't hastily regard him as a real friend.

2. No one is indispensable, nothing is in the world that you must possess.

Once you understand this idea, it would be easier for you to go through life when people around you don't want you anymore, or when you lose what you wanted the most.

3. Life is short.
When you waste your life today, tomorrow you would find that life is leaving you. The earlier you treasure your life, the better you enjoy life.

4. Love is nothing but a transient feeling, and this feeling would fade with time and with one's mood. If your so called loved one leaves you, be patient, time will wash away your aches and sadness.

Don't over exaggerate the beauty and sweetness of love, and don't over exaggerate the sadness of falling out of love.

5. A lot of successful people did not receive a good education, that does not mean that you can be successful by not studying hard! Whatever knowledge you gain is your weapon in life.

One can go from rags to riches, but one has to start from some rags !

6. I do not expect you to financially support me when I am old, neither  would I financially support your whole life. My responsibility as a supporter ends when you are grown up. After that, you decide whether  you want to travel in a public transport or in your limousine, whether rich or poor.

7. You honour your words, but don't expect others to be so. You can be good to people, but don't expect people to be good to you. If you don't understand this, you would end up with unnecessary troubles.

8. I have bought lotteries for umpteen years , but could never strike any prize. That shows if you want to be rich, you have to work hard! There is no free lunch !

9. No matter how much time I have with you, let's treasure the time we have together. We do not know if we would meet again in our next life.

CREATE YOUR OWN FUTURE

"The very best way to predict the future is to create it." - Peter Drucker 

To get the most or the best out of life is to decide now to prepare and create your own future. What you want and you constantly think of, you equally attract.

Everyday comes with its own opportunity and you have to make good use of it. Make use of the opportunity to achieve your dreams and goals. Start with the little you have. Most wealthy individuals in the world started from very humble beginnings. 

Decide today to be active and not passive. Take charge of your own life today and accept total responsibility of your own life. Dare yourself to make forward steps and face the risk that comes unexpectedly. 

Take this very day as an ample opportunity and start creating your own future.
