*Be Growth Inclined*

Taking a glance at most of the social media handles, one would see a lot of writers cum motivational speakers.

They relate things based on their experiences, perceptions, ideas and thoughts to their audience. They want to energise you with words either written or oral.

What they don't know is that their words are enough to lift the pages of a book but can't force the listener to read therefrom because it takes discipline to do what you won't naturally do.

Being motivated will make you see the light about yourself but discipline will make you sparkle without waiting to be illuminated by words of motivation.

John Maxwell's assertion "Motivation gets you going, but discipline keeps you growing" is true because growth is synonymous to positive changes. That is why change is from the inside out. We can't see the reactions that leads to increment in height but we would be conscious of our advancement in size.

If you've not been doings things that leads to growth, there is still time to reschedule and make time out for that growth process. People set goals and they try to achieve them, but failed to grow because they didn't know that achieving goals doesn't guarantee growth, but you can't devote time to growth without hitting a goal.

According to Harold Koontz, planning is bridging the gap from where we are and where we want to be. Growth begins with a plan in its infancy which doesn't end unlike goal setting that ends once the goal is achieved.

You have to continually do things that make you grow, things that stretches you. Drink from its liquor and remain drunk in being the best version of you everyday.

Be growth conscious and success will be your lifelong partner, but you have to pay attention to small details about yourself in order to map out the growth pattern that suits you.
