We have to consciously make the effort to reach out, encourage and inspire other people.
I love to always tell people how good and loving God is, and that no matter who they are, where they are and what they are going through, God has a plan for them.

We visited Makoko for the first time on 30th April to help 30 maidens discover their God given purpose and embrace exactly who God made them to be, irrespective of their background and present situation.
Our worth and identity are not rooted in what we do, our true worth and identity are rooted in God’s Word and who He created us to be.

Our Aim is Helping the Youth Discover and Live their Lives in Pursuit of Purpose

You may not be average, but according to Jim Rohn, you are an average: “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.”

Through his studies, Jim Rohn came to understand the power of peer influence. Peer pressure, he realized, isn’t always a bad thing—it may be a primary reason teens pick up smoking, but it can also promote stronger performance in School.

Peer pressure doesn’t simply go away after adolescence, either. Whether we realize it or not, each of us faces implicit pressure to think and act like those around us. If our friends like to drink, then we’re more likely to indulge as well. If they prefer to hit the gym on a Friday night, then we might also start our weekend with a workout.

‘We’ for Willpower
Health and fitness habits aren’t the only ones affected by peer pressure. When my son was born in 2017, I made a conscious effort to spend more time around friends with young kids. I’ve picked up countless parenting hacks (and lots of reassurances that yes, that’s normal toddler behavior!) from my parenting “tribe.”

When I began taking on more speaking gigs, I made a conscious effort to research the best in the business and follow them on social media. A year later, many of them have become friends and colleagues in real life, which has helped propel my career.

To better yourself physically, mentally, professionally, socially and spiritually, surround yourself with people who challenge you. Here’s how:

1. Get in on group exercise.
   Whatever your exercise of choice, you’ll get more out of it if you join a group. Research published in The Journal of the American Osteopathic Association found that, unlike individual exercise, working out with others decreases stress by 26 percent while significantly elevating quality of life. Group classes also create an external source of accountability while teaching their members new exercise moves.

Those who live in a fitness desert can try group fitness apps like Gixo, which also can attract more diverse participants to support each other. You can also just simply invite people to the Apple Activity app and make a game out of your health goals. What’s most important is to find a way to create a supportive group that will help challenge and push you to achieve something greater.

1. Join a mastermind group.
   No matter how tough your job seems, you’re not challenging yourself if you’re spending all your professional time around the same people. Attending conferences can be a short-term solution, as can after-work meetups. Rarely, though, does either setting provide deep enough interactions to facilitate meaningful growth.

Instead, look for a mastermind group. Although many mastermind groups cater to corporate CEOs, not all of them do. In fact, Napoleon Hill, the mastermind who came up with the concept in his 1937 book Think and Grow Rich, grew up in a one-room schoolhouse. No matter your background or role, you need exposure to those outside of your organization in order to advance.
