    My New Book Introduction
    Nov 20 2024

    The title of the book is SUPERIOR INTELLIGENCE: Unleashing the Spiritual and Human Intelligence for Extraordinary Living


    What brought it about

    It was on a day recently that the Holy Spirit gave me the word Superior Intelligence


    And He asked me further that, do I know that Superior Intelligence is different from Spiritual Intelligence?


    And that's how the sojourn began as I inquired from Him (the Holy Spirit) that can you explain to me what that means


    He then began to expose to me that every believer is baptised with spiritual intelligence, but not all of them operate in Superior Intelligence and I asked that why?


    He went further to let me know that many believers only rely on spiritual intelligence not knowing that unbelievers also have access to spiritual intelligence from the demonic dimension of the supernatural


    How then can the Superior Intelligence be exhibited?

    He then told me that in addition to the spiritual intelligence, believers need to seek, find and build expertise or competence in Human intelligence, which they'll now combine with the spiritual intelligence from the divine dimension of the supernatural for them to operate in the Superior Intelligence


    So, in the book, I wrote that competence (human intelligence) is not enough in some places and some times


    Also, spiritual intelligence may not be enough at times and in some places


    Believers will now need to combine human intelligence with spiritual intelligence to produce what eyes have not seen, ears have not heard and have not entered into the hearts of men


    What should people expect from it

    Expect revelations, insights and enlightenment from the book


    With simple words but with deep meanings and an explanation of few verses of the scripture in a way that will blow your mind and compel you to study the Word of God more

  • CONNECTION BETWEEN PHYSICAL HEALTH & PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT

    CONNECTION BETWEEN PHYSICAL HEALTH & PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT
    May 13 2024
    The Connection Between Physical Health and Personal Development I welcome you all to Life Potential Discoveery Series, where we delve into various topics that are related to personal development. In this episode, with everyone here in the room with me, we'll explore how these two seemingly distinct aspects of our lives (physical health and personal development) are deeply intertwined and how nurturing one can profoundly impact the other. So, let's embark on this enlightening journey together. Point 1: Mind-Body Harmony The foundation of personal development often begins with a harmonious relationship between mind and body. Physical health acts as a cornerstone in this synergy. Regular exercise not only strengthens muscles but also boosts neurotransmitters like endorphins, which are instrumental in enhancing mood and reducing stress. When we feel physically robust, our mental resilience flourishes, paving the way for self-improvement and growth. Moreover, a nourishing diet fuels both body and mind, providing the energy and nutrients necessary for cognitive functions and emotional stability. By prioritizing physical well-being, we lay a robust groundwork for holistic personal development. Point 2: Confidence and Self-Image Physical health significantly influences our self-image and confidence levels, which are pivotal in personal development. Engaging in physical activities cultivates discipline, determination, and perseverance—traits that transcend the gym and seep into various facets of life. As we witness progress in our fitness journey, our confidence blossoms, spilling over into our endeavors outside the gym walls. Improved posture, stamina, and vitality not only enhance our outward appearance but also bolster our inner conviction. Embracing a healthy lifestyle instills a sense of empowerment, propelling us to set audacious goals, conquer challenges, and pursue personal growth with unwavering resolve. Point 3: Resilience and Adaptability The pursuit of physical health inherently demands resilience and adaptability—qualities that are indispensable in personal development. Whether it's overcoming physical barriers, pushing through plateaus, or navigating setbacks, our fitness journey mirrors the challenges we encounter in life. Every setback becomes an opportunity for growth, every obstacle a chance to cultivate resilience. As we weather the storms of physical training, we develop the mental fortitude to tackle adversities in our personal and professional spheres. The discipline ingrained through consistent exercise translates into resilience, enabling us to bounce back stronger from setbacks and embrace change with open arms. In essence, the path to physical health serves as a training ground for the resilience and adaptability essential for personal development. 4. Prioritize Physical Activity: Incorporating regular exercise into your routine not only strengthens your body but also improves your mental well-being. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity activity most days of the week. 5. Nourish Your Body with Nutrient-Rich Foods: Fueling your body with a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats is essential for optimal health. Conclusion: In essence, the connection between physical health and personal development is profound and multifaceted. By nurturing our physical well-being, we lay a sturdy foundation for mental resilience, confidence, and adaptability—key pillars of personal growth. Let's commit to cultivating a harmonious relationship between mind and body, recognizing that our journey towards holistic development begins with a single step towards physical wellness. Thank you for tuning in to [Your Podcast Name]. Until next time, embrace the synergy between physical health and personal development, and embark on your journey towards self-discovery and growth.

  • STRATEGY FOR ENHANCING CREATIVITY

    STRATEGY FOR ENHANCING CREATIVITY
    Mar 14 2024

    STRATEGY FOR ENHANCING CREATIVITY

    Understanding the Creative Process:

    The creative process refers to the series of steps or stages individuals go through to generate, develop, and implement new ideas or solutions to problems. It typically involves several key stages such as inspiration or ideation, conceptualization, refinement, and execution. Understanding this process involves recognizing that creativity is not a random phenomenon but rather a structured and iterative journey where ideas evolve and take shape through a combination of imagination, exploration, and problem-solving.


    Cultivating a Creative Environment:

    Cultivating a creative environment involves creating conditions that foster and nurture creativity within a team, organization, or community. This includes factors such as encouraging open communication, embracing diverse perspectives, providing resources and support for experimentation, promoting autonomy and risk-taking, and fostering a culture of collaboration and innovation. A creative environment is one where individuals feel empowered to express their ideas freely, take calculated risks, and explore unconventional approaches without fear of judgment or failure.


    Embracing Failure and Resilience:

    Embracing failure involves recognizing that setbacks and mistakes are inherent parts of the creative process and opportunities for learning and growth. Instead of being discouraged by failure, resilient individuals and teams view it as valuable feedback that can inform future iterations and improvements. Embracing failure requires cultivating a mindset that values experimentation, perseverance, and adaptability, where failures are seen not as endpoints but as stepping stones toward success.


    Balancing Structure and Flexibility:

    Balancing structure and flexibility involves finding the right mix of organization and adaptability in the creative process. While structure provides a framework and guidance for creativity, too much rigidity can stifle innovation and hinder experimentation. On the other hand, excessive flexibility without any structure can lead to chaos and lack of direction. Finding the right balance requires being open to new ideas and approaches while also establishing clear goals, deadlines, and processes to keep creativity focused and productive.


    Continuous Learning and Growth Mindset:

    Continuous learning and a growth mindset involve recognizing that creativity is a skill that can be developed and honed over time through practice, feedback, and reflection. Individuals with a growth mindset embrace challenges, persist in the face of setbacks, and see failures as opportunities for learning and improvement. They actively seek out new knowledge and experiences, remain open to feedback and constructive criticism, and are willing to adapt and evolve their perspectives and approaches based on new information and insights. This mindset fosters a culture of lifelong learning and continuous improvement, essential ingredients for sustained creativity and innovation.

  • Why am I where I am

    Why am I where I am
    Feb 24 2024
    WHY am I where I am? This question can be asked from two perspectives It's possible to ask this question from a REGRET perspective What does that mean? It means you're regretting your life and where you find yourself It also means, you're looking at your life and it's short of what it could have become This question can also be asked from am INQUISITIVE perspective How do I mean? This is asking the question for wanting to know what you are meant to do and who you're meant to be It's asking the question to know your WHY in this world If you ask from the INQUISITIVE perspective early enough, you'll not have any reason to ask it from the REGRET perspective You have more in you than you're exhibiting at the moment, you can ask questions inquisitively to uncover, unearth and dig out more treasures locked up on your inside Questions such as What will I do next? What should I do next? What can I do again? These are questions that can spur you into action to want to do more You can know yourself more, doing so will make you escape from the prototype-kind of life that people have known you with You can be a better version of yourself and that's what Personal Development helps you to do I can guide and train you in discovering answers to these questions and many more questions that are raging in your heart, seeking answers I remain Alo Olatokunboh Akin +2348036506376

  • TIME MANAGEMENT FOR PRODUCTIVITY

    TIME MANAGEMENT FOR PRODUCTIVITY
    Jan 15 2024
    How you can spend your time for productivity! Same number of hours is allotted to everyone in this world, both rich and poor! There are strategies you can learn to be able to utilize your time effectively for productivity This was the focus of my first audio event this year on Monday, January 2024 I opened the session by letting my listeners know that the term Time Management is not about managing time, but managing your activities within the time allocated to you I then shared the following four strategies with them (the recording will be uploaded on my Spotify channel soon) ⏳ Prioritize Tasks Effectively: I encouraged my listeners to categorize tasks based on urgency and importance using Matrix. Which helps in focusing on high-priority items and ensures essential tasks are completed first, leading to increased productivity. 🥅 Set Clear Goals and Deadlines: I emphasized the importance of defining specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and time-bound goals. By so doing, individuals can create a sense of urgency, fostering a more organized and efficient approach to their work. 🚧 Use Time Blocking Techniques: I also introduced the concept of time blocking, where individuals can allocate specific blocks of time for different types of activities. I made them understand that this method helps in minimizing multitasking, increasing concentration, and dedicating focused attention to specific tasks, ultimately enhancing productivity. 💻Embrace Technology Wisely: I encouragedspoke on the use of productivity tools and apps that streamline tasks, automate repetitive processes, and provide insights into time usage. Leveraging technology effectively can save time and enable individuals to allocate their energy toward more value-driven activities, boosting overall productivity I'm your host, Alo Olatokunboh Akin Pastor, Certified Content Creator, Personal Development Expert, Award Winning Public Speaker, Podcaster, Spiritual Life Coach +234-8036506376
