Use Your Head
“USE
YOUR HEAD” AND GET AHEAD
The
position of the head is not merely for aesthetic reasons. Its position is a
clear message: it’s on top of your body so that if you use it adequately, you
should be on top of your life.
5 Ways to Use Your Head to
Get Ahead:
1. Think
to Plan: Most people just
proceed to embark on important endeavors without properly planning ahead first.
Can you imagine a pilot jumping into his seat and just flying the plane without
a prior plan of where he’s going to land and whether there’s enough fuel to
travel that far? This is a good idea of how calamitous an unplanned life is.
Planning must be your first step in every venture.
2. Think
to Create: We must not be
content with the things that already exist around us. We must think to know
what new thing needs to be introduced to a process or an undertaking in our
environment. What new things have you introduced to the activities that go on
around you? It’s time to think to create. God has created us in His image to be
as creative as He is. You have the power to let something be which used not to
be. Think to create now. A society advances when new things are created.
3. Think
to Reform: It is necessary
to always think about how to improve upon what we do. Continually doing the
same things repeatedly without reforms is a sign that some thinking is not
being done. People who think deeply about what they do often have new ideas of
how things can be improved to yield greater results.
4.
Think to Connect: Thinking about what needs to be done will
automatically lead you to connect strategically to certain people. Useless
friendships are the result of poor thinking. The many things you have a burning
desire to accomplish will join you up with people with key talents and skills
that will be beneficial to your purpose.
5.
Think to Beautify: Beauty is a manifestation of creativity and
plan. Anything that looks beautiful, being it one’s living room, personal appearance,
office desk, etc., has been specially designed to look so. Beauty does not
happen by chance; it’s planned and created. By default, many things will regress
from beauty. It takes deliberate efforts and thoughtfulness to create beauty
around you.
Exert the needed energy to
use your head in the above ways and you will surely get ahead in your life!
