‘…for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.’ Matthew 12:34
kwashiorkor is the reward of severe malnutrition and since it can be controled because what it takes to be balanced in deit is not expensive but accumulation of right chooses at the right time. Hunger changes bread into cake, beans into beefsteak but let not your hunger for books be an excuse for you to read junks. Your spirit is at the receiving end, reading transformational books is feeding your spirit; beware of what you feed it with! Books are peoples’ opinion in blueprint and so you should be conscious of what you reads; Just as you are conscious of your health, guard your spirit likewise. There are certain laws which govern the process of acquiring successes, and once these laws are learned and obeyed by anyone, that person will be successful with mathematical certainty, one of those law is to balance your diet, as you feed you body with all classes of food, and your soul with humour, music and so on, remember your spirit with good material along with your prayer.
Your comments and critic of volume 1 number 1 of this publication is my joy, I appreciate it, that shows you indeed digest it. If you have not gotten the volume 1 number 1 visit http://atoyebisamuel.blogspot.com/ on the internet, this is the number 2 of volume 1. Imagine walking into a room and meeting the 'you' of ten years from now. What will you be wearing? Where will you be living? What will your lifestyle be like? What car will you be driving? Will you be running a business? If so, how successful will you be? What will your net worth be? The book you read determines your answers.
He who serves two masters must lie to one, you cannot pretend to want success and hate reading, it is also well known that a pig with two masters soon starves, if you want to succeed be ready to go by it rule. In building your library, use bricks that are relevant, if truly you need success in a particular area of your life, let what will dominate your library be related to that question in your life, if purpose, money, marriage and so on let it be. In building your personal library, your interest must be well represented; if you are trained to be a statistician then your personal library should reflect that. Your Bible is not elective but core.
One grain does not fill a sack, but it helps. Little drops of water make an ocean. In building your library, no book is too small, I have materials I cut to keep and a sheet detached for keep, Undernet my bed is full of materials of different kinds. Never under estimate any material, as knowledge had a post-dated
relevance, if you read anything now and you foresee it relevancy, document it, it is better to cut the shoe than pinch the foot. You need to know, what is not known can be forgotten. The purpose of building personal library is not to boost but to equip you and make you strong enough to fight the fight of future. Do not lose the sight of the fight, it is the fact.
Name your library, when you buy books or any materials christen it there, you will have to borrow it to people, so help them to help you, write your library name and address (email and number inclusive), date of purchase may add beauty to you library. He who answers for another pays the bill, when you agree to burrow your friends your book, ask when they will be through, if possible ask them for a book from their library too, you challenge them to build theirs too.
All who snore are not sleeping, you cannot pretend to be balanced, the true balance diet is in reading of materials that add value to you, imagine travelling to a strange land with a comprehensive map, it will be an adventure but if the journey is without a map it with be frustrating. Life is like that journey, you need a comprehensive map, and some people had documented their sixty years of living in a book, so when you read it and digest it, you have that experience. If your pastor write a book that is not relevant to your person, or contradict your biblical believe drop it and life continues and that dose not make other books of your pastor. I have speaks on different occasions and on different matters that matter, some years ago I was invited by outgoing Youth corps members to speak on their program, I could remember I said “success is a barrier to a purposeful life” do I sound confusing? Not yet, read this, after then I was invited to speak in a secondary school and I said “success is the end product of purpose”. Although both statements are fact but different messages to different people with the same meaning.
I beseech you therefore, don’t pluck a green apple; when it ripens it will fall of itself, as time goes on you will see the beauty of literature but before then be selective in reading, the best armour is keep out of range, flee away from some literature. Rashness is the parent of misfortune. Luke 6: 45 “A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good,… for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.” So, beware of what you read, don’t pollute your mind. It takes a thousand blows to drive a nail in the dark, prevention is better than cure.
ATOYEBI, Samuel B.

~~~LABOUR LOSS~~~
*******‘‘…that he may run that readeth it’. Habakkuk 2:2 *******
As revealed in the above article only those whose minds are constantly sharpened, who are not intellectual indolent with mere antecedents of activism, can have the spirit and soul of angels in posterity. When the mind is not intellectually exercised, it loses its soul and goes senile. Whosoever you are now (student, apprentice, employee or employer) that is what I call your immediate and in pursuit of your immediate don’t loose the ultimate (what you can be). Also informed us of the need to read the right literature now,which is the right time. In a time like this, when children are cheated, adults are angry, women are wondering, men are molested, lives are leaking and so on, all we need is not sincerity because people are sincerely destroyed for lack of knowledge but what we need is to read materials that will add value to our lives and we should be selective in building our personal libraries. Better is the end of everything than the begining, so let reason this together (LABOUR LOSS) .
Time is the only thing that is constant to all, it is non stochastic, it is equally given to all human. It is the best yard stick for measuring progress and success. The ability to make judicious use of it is the simplest definition of wisdom. Time is the currency of life. Time is life, with no apology, time wasted is life wasted! My experience during my Pre- degree program in the university made it clear that reading takes time and energy and so it is work. But in all labour there is profit, the level of profit! is determined by you and you in all ramifications.
Reading of literatures that add value to life take more time than reading for examination purpose because it is for a change, it charges time. Hearing of messages: audio, video and VCD of people that matters consume concentration but it all worth it. Remember, Romans 10:17 that says ‘so then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing the word of God’. Hearing seems to demand less than reading but reading is where most treasures are revealed. Reading is important that it was a prerequisite for a king in the Bible (Deuteronomy 17:18-19). Little wonder you belief ‘‘readers are leaders’’. One of those things that make a successful leader is what they know; you need a grasp of the facts and understanding of the factors involved, and a vision for the future. Success in finance for instance is not about luck, clever financing, extreme technology, or running ahead of the pack, it is about applying good proven principles to whatever you do, which are mostly hidden in literature and when you lay hold of it, act it! Don’t stop acting in it, when you read it,breath life into it.Why are there poor professors in our environment? Why is it believed teacher’s reward is in heaven? Why is poverty celebrated amidst the academicis? Why should someone invest years studying economics, business administration, management, accountancy and courses that teaches how-to make wealth and still wallow in abrade poverty? Why, why, why ooh why ???
Reading alone is not sufficient to ignite the success you desire, poverty is not in literature, but people invest time in reading but loose interest in putting it to work. Some years ago, a Scottish doctor named James Young Simpson read Genesis 2:21 ‘And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam…’, so, he said if God could cause Adam to sleep before that glorious surgery then human should not experience pain and high mortality rate during surgical operation. Then he acted on what he read in the Bible and in the university (Edinburgh University) and the result was ‘chloroform’ that cause ‘artificial sleep’ during surgery. What are you doing all you’ve read in the literature? Your world needs you now! People have seen you with literature, they want to see you live in it; it will be a waste of time and resources if you only read it without putting it to work.
There are many stagnate readers, they are worse than those who live by chance. They read and memorize quotable quote but never practice what they read, there lives did not reflect what they read. Don’t you think the time used in reading transformational books is enough reason to work it out? Have you not heard it: ‘For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified’ (Romans 2:13). Imagine a world where every Christian act the Bible, I am sure it will be heaven on Earth.‘And the Lord shall make thee head, and thou shalt not be beneath..’, please, open your Bible and let’s read the conclusive verse together in Deuteronomy 28:13 the prayer above hangs on a condition: ‘…to observe and DO them’. It will be a waste of time if you will not act on what you read or heard. You’ve invested your money and most pecially your precious time, the divident is real. Relate with what you read. James 1:22 acclaim ‘But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves’ When you read literature without meditating on it for action, you deceive yourself.
Good success is real not for few selected people but for as many that will thirst for it, search for it and find it. There is no success without you, your input is required, when you read, rehearse it and be a doer reader. The road to success is narrow but the place called success is wide and can accommodate us all. Practice all you have read, laws of success, how to be the best wife, church growth, purpose, 21 laws of money… and lot more. Without which the Labour to hear or read will be of no profit! Remember, the secret of success and prosperity is in Joshua 1:8. As this article drives to it’s end, please not that, throughout the entire Bible are to be found a number of basic principles of truth, among which is the principle of reading.
