The Blast of Wisdom

The blast of wisdom is a wise motive for greater achievement in life and business. Many who lacks wisdom perishes with all their great potential, but through wisdom the lowly and prudent assumes a position of relevance in the land of the living.


Take a firm hold of instruction, do not let go; keep her, for she is your life, Love her and she will guide and keep you safe all the days of your life.

There is no acquisition that can be compared to wisdom. Her worth is to be greatly esteemed. If you are tired of living a stagnant and an unfulfilled life, then try and embrace wisdom, and your life shall forever remain in peace, plenty and pleasure.

The words of wisdom in this article are birthed through prayers and meditation in an intense analysis of events in relation to Gods pre-established laws. It has been tested and proven to be true by generation past and present. Their truths have liberated and it is still liberating and will continue to liberate those who dare to abide by it. Therefore, I am convinced beyond every reasonable doubt that this is a legacy that is worth treasuring forever.

Read and meditate on these words of wisdom, for in this you shall make your ways prosperous, and have good success! The blast of wisdom will position you in the right mental and spiritual frame of mind to cultivate the appropriate and intelligent attitude for excellence.

1. God has given man a world that nothing but his own folly keeps from being a paradise.

2. There is always room at the top to accommodate everybody; it is arrayed in its versatility to accommodate all dreams, and visions, ambitions, creativity, gifts, talents and purposes.

3. The greatest use of life is to spend it for something that will outlast it.

4. The degree of maturity an individual attains is directly proportional to his ability to make wise decisions.

5. Success is making a decision, making it yours and improving by it day after day.


6. It is never too late to be what you might have been.


7. Small deeds done are better than deeds planned but not done.


8. Any plan no matter how poorly conceived, if boldly executed is better than inaction.

9. Indecision is fatal. It is better to make a wrong decision than to build up a habit of indecision. For if a man wallows in indecision, he certainly cannot act, and since he did not act he will not succeed.

10. Know the value of time, snatch it, seize it, utilize it, and enjoy every moment of it.

11. You will never find time for anything. If you want time, you must evacuate every irrelevant thing that is occupying it.

12. Take time to work, it is the price of success. Take time to think, it is the source of power. Take time to play, it is the secrete of youth. Take time to read, it is the foundation of knowledge. Take time to worship, it is the high way to reverence. Take time to love, it is the one sacrament of life. Take time to help and enjoy friends, it is the source of happiness. Take time to dream, it hitches the soul to the stars. Take time to laugh, it is the music of the soul. Take time to pray, it helps to bring God nearer.


13. Be careful of what you want, for you will surely get it.

14. Courage is doing what you are afraid to do. There can be no courage in the absence of fear.

15. Do things you fear and the death of fear are certain.


16. All you need to grow fine, vigorous grass is crack in your sidewalk.

17. A dream unrealized is a dream imprisoned by that enemy of all enemies called the fear of failure. Therefore set that dream free, determine that you will make that dream happen and it shall surely come to pass.

18. The secrete of achievement is not to let what you are doing to get to you before you get to it.

19. There are four steps to achievement: Plan purposefully, prepare prayerfully, proceed positively, and pursue persistently.

20. If you can imagine it, dream it, and then you can become it. If you can envision it, you can attain it. If you can picture it, you can achieve it.

21. Tomorrow is the excuse of the lazy and the refuse of the incompetent.

22. Procrastination is the thief of time, but more so, it is the thief of soul.


23. Creative people prefer complexity; they are more complex in personality. They are more independent in their judgment, more self assertive and dominant, more observant and more open to new expectation and experiences. 

24. To insure good health, eat lightly, breathe deeply, live moderately, cultivate cheerfulness, and maintain an interest in life.

25. Every man is thinking of changing the world, but none thinks of changing themselves. Thou son of man employ all your effort to change and make yourself a better person. Then you can by example help to change the world.
