How to Stand out from the crowd.(PART ONE) 

Many people may or may not have come across the words ''STAND OUT "while those who have come across it may be asking themselves the question of how can one stand out, do I have what it takes to stand out, even if I have, will people appreciate it. These have been some of the questions that have been on our minds. However, I want to let you know that God has given each and everyone one of us what it takes to stand but it's left for you to discover it. To stand out is not just a day activities, but a day to day process which involves determination, discipline, and discovery.

WHAT DEOS IT MEAN TO STAND OUT. 

  It means to be easy to seen or noticed because of being different, a position one is prepared to uphold. To be distinctive or prominent. In this stand out, there are many of it in which people like to involve themselves into. For instance, if party is being host, people will like to spend their last money to buy the most expensive thing they will put on that day. Then among the ladies, they will say to themselves make sure you differentiate yourselves from the crowd somehow, while the men will take a gorgeous girl to the party. Well, that's is not the type of standing out that I'm talking about is not being a talkative or people knowing you just because whenever you come to any organization everybody will just take a notice on you.Anyways, some people naturally are like that and and to be frank, I like those kind of people, because whenever they come around in any gathering, the whole atmosphere will change and will not be bored. But as I earlier said, that's not all the way to stand out. 

  

In other words, to stand out involves making a positive change in the School, Church, Business area and in other societies at large. These positive changes have to start with you first, and it has to be spiritual and physical because you cannot give out what you don't have to the societies. Being ready to adapt in any form of life you find yourself into. Not being able to give up that which you have because of of one thing or other.

HOW DO I STAND OUT 

  A person who stands out is someone who is comfortable with who he/she is. Has the confidence to be unique and to let their individuality shine. Standing out from the crowd means that you are not afraid to speak your mind and to avoid following others who brings out ideas that will affect your attitude negatively.It's about someone who generates adimration and is being remembered by others for being someone special and worthy of looking up to. While standing out from the crowd is not something one can achieve in a day of his life, it's definitely a worthy goals to aspire to as a whole, especially when it helps you achieve your other goals in life. But you need to stick to it and never give up. 

SOME TIPS THAT WILL YOU STAND OUT. 

1.KNOW GOD FIRST /DISCOVER GOD FIRST 

God is the key to every success of our lives because without him we can do nothing. Without God we can never go far in life. No matter the ability or ideas you think you have, you can never go far in life. If you look around in our society today, you will discover that people whom their names are being mentioned before are no more heard because their own abilities is weak, they do things with their own power without acknowledging God first. We need to put Him(God)as the first thing in our lives. 

Without God we can do nothing and with him all things are possible. See yourself as nothing before him because he's the one that gives us power to do exploit. He is the one that has the power to make wealth and he is the one that gives us the ability, knowledge and wisdom to make things happen. Any man that wants to make it in life should go to God so that he will him a footprint. There's no one who can single handedly achieve in life with him. 

2.BE CONFIDENT 

be yourself, be free spirited. Don't be too self-conscious, be confident. If you are not, pretend that you are. This may mean challenging yourself in one way you never thought of before. Be so bold in that thing you know you can do best, do not do what you cannot do because you see others do. For instance, you know very well that you don't know how to play table tennis but you are good in football but because your friends are into it so you joined them. That's why people fail in life. When talking to someone,don't think about yourself or what people might be saying about you.Ask questions,smile,pay attention to their saying and look at them in the eyes. 

3.BE POLITE AND FRIENDLY 

when someone is talking to you, be interested in what they have to say, nod occasionally, throw in a'' yeah",''uh" ''I see",''oh oo",or anything that suggests that you are actually listening to them. If you like someone's shoe, tell them, always like to compliment people. A good thought about someone is worthless unless it is said out loud. Be real and honest and your thoughts will be valued. 

4.COURAGE

This is the ability to continue and not fade up. Being able to face any challenge you see,mostly with the word of God, 1 Samuel 30:1-8,Courage is one of the attitude of a Christan character, when you are courageous, your mind will be at peace. And God can speak to you because his voice is 

a still small voice.

5.DISCIPLINE.

Denying yourself of present pleasure in order to secure future gain, otherwise, leaving the pleasure of today and having it tomorrow. Being able to discipline your emotions, thought, desires and your spirit. Disengaging your self from certain activities of life and focusing your mind in that you are called to do. Discipline helps you not to finish your today and wear out tomorrow. 

            

AREAS OF DISCIPLINE 

1.Discipline in Tongues :Our tongues are like a fire that can burns and destroy us. Whatever we say today, can bring a good or bad report in our lives. Proverbs 18:21 ''THE TONGUE HAS THE POWER OF LIFE AND DEATH AND THOSE WHO LOVE IT WILL EAT IT'S FRUIT. 

2.Discipline in Time 

Successful people are mindful of their time and other people's time. They don't waste time because ''Time" is money. 

3.Discipline in Money 

Money is in two ways 

(a) Money should not be our master (i.e.we should not be greedy). 

(b) We should not be a waster of money.

Both on food, drink and sleep. Destiny of many have been buried in their stomach.
