It is widely believed that just anybody has the intrinsic potential to unfold an idea that will generate the revolutionary change(s) the world needs. Thats erroneous!
As no man can give what he does not possess. It is therefore quite unequivocal to say only knowledgeable people have the innate and dynamic ability to evolve revolutionary concepts.
I discern that the more knowledge and skill one acquires towards the fulfillment of ones field of calling, vision, life goals or assignment the more empowered one is to generate revolutionary concepts in that field or area of calling.
God is the ultimate source of true inspiration and by no means will he unfold (unzip) certain hierarchy of ideas to a knowledge-void or deficient mind as such a mind does not have the requisite mind-empowerment (by knowledge) to implement those ideas and will only lead to sheer wastage of resources .God is known for prudent management of resources.
It is therefore imperative to state that the higher my knowledge and skill acquisition for the fulfillment of my lifes calling, vision or assignment the higher my mind-empowerment to evolve revolutionary concepts in my field of calling.
As visionists were therefore saddled with the responsibility of continual mind- upgradement if were going to make ever-green contributions to our areas of calling.
ANCIENT REVOLUTIONARY CONCEPTS
I deduce form the biblical account of Jacob that he was a man highly committed to knowledge and skill acquisition as his master Laban never at any point complain about his unskillfulness or inability in effective animal husbandry (for which he was employed) for 14 years; neither did his employer substitute another employee in his stead. In addition, his employer had total trust in him and never bothered to keep stock or review company business transaction records from time to time.
This whole scenario is not common in todays job situations, as many employers of labor are not favorably disposed to the idea of retaining a staff for more than 10 years of service after which it is believed that he must have deposited all the stuff hes got to offer and hes therefore considered henceforth under-productive and consequently laid off to allow entry for fresh-blood applicants.
Only a handful of employees manage to garner the trust of their employees during their years of service in their various organizations and at one time or the other it is more likely than not that their bosses might have attempted substituting them for another employee perceived to have more stuff upstairs to deliver. While unsavory that may seem to the employee, it is note-worthy to unravel the principles behind Jacobs success at his work-place.
Quite compelling it is to note the man Jacob was a rare breed of employee in the light of todays job situations. By evidence we have: he was too valuable an employee to lay off. And expectedly his boss sought to retain him for even longer (it was obvious that was the companys No.1 asset) and he did, for another 7 years. Notice that the revolutionary idea did not come to Jacob until after his 14 plus additional 7 years of on-the-job knowledge and skill acquisition by service.
Yes, Jacob had in time past got some other ideas but those ideas were always commensurate/proportional to the quality and quantity of knowledge he had in his data bank. But the revolutionary idea (breakthrough idea) did not unfold to him until after his 21 years of knowledge and dexterity ferreting in his field of calling. It doesnt necessarily have to be that long for everybody, 21 years is not the standard but one thing is instructive: YOU MUST WORK AT CONSTANTLY ACQUIRING LEARNING AND SKILL TOWARDS THE FULFILMENT OF YOUR LIFES CALLING.
THE POINT OF NO-RETURN
The world renowned Scientist Thomas Edison also climbed this same ladder of continual learning and mind upgradement towards the fulfillment of his lifes calling and at various stages of learning and dexterity acquisition he reeled out scientific ideas/inventions always commensurate to his information database and kept upgrading until he crossed the point-of-no-return .At this stage it became quite as natural for him to unleash astounding scientific concepts/inventions .He became a living repository of scientific knowledge. It reached a point the revolutionary concepts kept bubbling forth that it became humanly impossible for him to implement all these concepts; he therefore entered into another realm called
THE CONSULTANCY
At the consultancy stage he became consultant to a sea of eclectic and teeming clientele, most of whom were intellectuals themselves, others included CEOs of companies from all over the world.
I perceive that consultancy is the final stage in knowledge and skill acquisition. It is a class exclusively reserved for those who have climbed through the previous stages of the ladder of knowledge and skill acquisition for lifes calling.
It is the class a man of learning graduates into and establishes himself as an Authority and carves a niche for himself in that field of calling or assignment. As much as it is a class much desired, it is not a class to be rushed into or assumed, rather the height a man of learning attains by constantly making progress at, by way of a life-long and selfless commitment to learning in his field of calling or area of assignment.

The most courageous people in the world.Graham and Julie Who are the most courageous people in the world? Armed services? Coastguards? Astronauts? Firepersons? Explorers? Mountaineers? Sports? For us, the most courageous people in the world are those who are committed to discovering how they can get the best out of themselves. Individuals, who are committed to learning about and changing, their habits and beliefs in order to fulfil their dreams. Individuals, who are fighting the dreaded disease of complacency.
Complacency is one of the deadliest diseases you face in your life. It stifles growth. Kills companies. Destroys the economy of your Country. Changes and destroys your relationship with your partner, friends, children and colleagues.
If you:
have a feeling of self-satisfaction.
find you are low in energy and enthusiasm.
have become unaware of danger, trouble, or controversy in your life.
find it difficult to accept positive criticism and acknowledge your mistakes.
take ages making a decision, especially those that will change your future or may be unpopular.
go through the day with an attitude of thats good enough or that will do.
Then, in a nutshell, complacency has you in its hands and is destroying you.
Complacency is taking away your spirit.
How do you overcome complacency? Whats the treatment?
Napoleon Hill says the treatment is: Control Your Own Thoughts.
You are searching for the magic key that will unlock the door to the source of power; and you have the key in your own hands, and you make use of it the moment you learn to control your own thoughts.
The magic key is NOT to focus on and control your negative and wasteful thoughts but to develop your necessary and positive thoughts.
Negative and wasteful thoughts, like blame and worry, have no useful purpose. Their job is to reduce your energy and your potential. To make you weaker than you really are. Therefore DO NOT concentrate your thinking on your weaknesses because the more you think negative and wasteful thoughts the further and further you will get from your potential. You cannot change negative thoughts to positive ones.
So, what can you do?
There are two strategies that you can adopt to be successful:
1. Focus on your necessary and positive thoughts.
Necessary thoughts: those that keep your life working naturally and Positive thoughts are those that move you forward with the intention of forming win/win relationships. Both are invaluable. They bring you energy and success. They are your seeds to a successful life. They drive your feelings, words and actions. The more you can think in the positive the more your feelings, words and actions are positive and you are successful.
2. Stop asking yourself why whenever you dont get the results you want..
Why only causes you to respond with because. And any sentence starting with because means that you are now defending your past behaviour and change is impossible. Instead ask yourself; what caused it to happen or how did it happen. Now you have something strong to base your future on.
These strategies are the antidote that finishes complacency and give you freedom.
You have the freedom to choose your behaviour. You dont have to continue following others and what others say to you. All you have to do is focus on your natural and positive thoughts. These give you power and enable you to find what you are truly capable of.
The most courageous people in the world are those who overcome the disease of complacency and strive to be all they are capable of being.
"Only those who risk going far can possibly find out how far one can go"
