You Owe It To Yourself

“Mastering others is strength. Mastering yourself is true power.”

Lao Tzu.

The beginning of maturity is to realize that there is no one coming to the rescue. Everything you can be is entirely up to you. As time shifts, you notice that all your decisions and actions sum up to your current life. Where you want to be in future is usually determined by what things you do in the present. Therefore you need to pick yourself up and start making things happen.

You must start making serious decisions about where you want to go as a youth and endeavor to go through the necessary process to get there. You need to appreciate yourself as a resourceful person by viewing yourself according to who you are and not what you do. Quit defining yourself in accordance to your job and start selling who you are. You have skills to be discovered, books yet to be written, songs yet to be sung and talents yet to be displayed.

All of us have been put in this world to serve our best to other people through our special gifting. Therefore, you need to have full control over yourself in order to realize your purpose –that is self management. Self management is a critical module in the Kyusa curriculum.

Meir Liraz encourages people to learn to accept total responsibility for their lives. You need to constantly evaluate yourself and keep focused by doing one thing at a time. You also need to be kind to yourself and appreciate yourself when you achieve a set goal. Setting time limits for all you are meant to do is vital. Endeavor to do more in less time since,” he who kills time buries opportunities!”

Finally, you need to concentrate more on positive thoughts, master the habit of studying, journaling and avoid making excuses. Bill Hybels encourages you to,”Examine yourself and your life then change whatever you can change that will lighten your load and help you prevail in your calling.”

We therefore implore you to partner with Kyusa in ensuring that generations of change agents are raised who are self aware and have control over themselves.
