They say "The world is stage" where you learn a lot of things, each of them having a particular drive force. Life itself is rough, there are ups and downs one must face to attain success, deal with people, put emotions in check . I call them "Personal life manual"

These principles are the lessons we've learned at some point in life. It's like a tool for staying focused on what is really important in life, they help shape your life priorities. We all have different life principles that keeps us going more like a guide to everything we do in life. Mine might be different from yours as our life experiences are also different, but I am going to list some of these principles and maybe you can also add some of them to your list.

What you sow, you shall reap:

"What goes around comes around", "Every action has a reaction" These are statements from different school of thoughts that explains one thing What you sow, you shall reap Biologically speaking, you cannot sow rice and reap cassava. Treat people with respect and you will get respect in return. There's no coincidence or accident in life. What happens in life positively or negatively is the proceed of what we have sown. This principle will help guide you when relating with others, friends, colleagues and family members.

Be positive, say good words, think good thoughts, and do good deeds because what you sow you shall reap.

Determination is everything:

Determination is the key to attain any height in life. I've learned not to give up! There is always a way to make it happen that is why we have 26 letters to the English Alphabet. It's okay to have a plan A to Z and if plan A didn't work out then plan D might work out perfectly, but you need to have the zeal and determination to be able to carry out those plans. The world's most popular brands all stated from somewhere. Success comes with determination, you just have to keep going. It doesn't matter how talented or how educated you are without determination and spiritual growth, you will end up like every other person. Determination puts you ahead of others.

Recently, I acquired two new certifications to my first degree. It wasn't easy, I had to do away with certain lifestyles to achieve this. Normally, I eat three times daily, but because I didn't have enough resources to acquire the needed certification for me to excel in my field, I had to cut down my three square meal to two. I also stopped eating out just to save more money to pay my fees. Today, I am happy!

Every Situation in life is temporary:

This kept me going for a long time. Every situation that I've passed or will pass through in life is temporary. My current life situation is just a phase that will pass. This simply means never regret a day in your life: good days give happiness, bad days give experience.

For most people, they want to everything around them to be secured, but let me say this: Our lives are temporary, nothing is guaranteed except a relationship with our Creator, you don't need to fight it. Do the best you can and live life to its fullest. Embrace every phase of your life and learn from it. Worry over the things that you can control and worry less over the things you cannot control. This life we live is a dream, when we die we, wake up to reality as souls.

Know thy self :

As a man thinketh, so he is! The question is, what do you tell yourself each time you look at the mirror? This principle is all about being positive in life. Positivity attracts positive things and negativity will definitely attract negative things. If you keep speaking to your inner being in a negative way "I am a failure" then a failure, you will become.

You need to constantly speak to yourself of who you want to become and nothing less. Always have a positive thought, your thought is who you are and who you are, is who you become.
