GROWTH WILL COST YOU
Recently my wife told me about a coaching program she would like to pay for.
The program was quite expensive and she asked what I thought about her decision to take the program.
I asked for the details of the program and she explained the value she would get from it, without hesitation, I asked her to go ahead.
You see, over the last few years two valuable lessons about growth:
1. When it comes to your personal growth, stop thinking price, start thinking VALUE!
2. Growth will COST you.
Growth will demand that something leaves your hand.
Free is a trap. A trap that keeps you in your comfort zone.
Information is free but transformation will cost you something!
John Maxwell said, when you see people who are not growing, you would notice it is often down to the price they have to pay to grow.
Many people are stuck in their comfort zone because they are not ready to pay the price to leave that zone.
They are not ready to pay the price and sacrifice financially, time-wise, in service, in accountability, and consistency.
They would rather stay where they are, comfortable and secure not realising their value is beyond their comfort zone.
When God wants to change your life, he shows you the price you must pay.
Are you willing to pay the price for your growth?
I believe in you.

Picture an eagle in a cage. No matter how beautiful the cage is, the eagle was not designed to live in a cage. It was designed to soar on the highest heights and mountains with courage and flair. No matter the lure of the cage, it can never surpass the freedom of the eagle soaring in all expanse of the skies in all of its glories and strength. Like the eagle trapped, too many brilliant, gifted, called individuals are trapped in the cage of careers they were not designed for. They can never command their true worth and value, they can only eat the crumbs they are being fed by their captors. The lure of salaries and pennies that will never satisfy keeps them in such cages. They would rather remain in the rat race than take the risks for their freedom and glory. The Bible says, "If the Son (Jesus) sets you free, you will be free indeed." - John 8:36 As a child of God, you can break free! You were not designed to be caged! Any job that does not give you the freedom to express your gifts, talents and calling is a cage. One of the biggest graveyards of purpose I see is this graveyard of unfulfilling careers. People get jobs only for the sake of earning, rather than fulfilling their life's calling and pursuing what matters to them. But here's the truth: The careers you were not designed for will not satisfy you. They will leave you with voids and emptiness. At the end of your career, you would lack true legacy, influence and impact. Your time to break free is now. I believe in you. Dr Samuel Ekundayo
