Women's Prayer Banquet Become A Better You (B.A.BY) with Pastor Dotun

My notes from Women's Prayer Banquet "Become a Better You" September, 2021.
There were so many wisdom nuggets being released at this online event. I just got to write down a few. Men out there will find this information useful as well. 

Kids need hands on play-time: puzzles, lego, creativity from drawing e.t.c. This allows them to build creativity. On the other hand, always watching TV will create hyperactivity. (My kid's pediatrician actually taught us this at a yearly checkup, so this is standard medical information as well).
This is the reason why a lot of adults cannot meditate, our minds are not calm enough.

Excuses are made whether they are valid or not.The 1st person you have responsibility to is yourself.
Age, marriage and children are not excuses to give up on yourself.
No one is better than you, they just know something that you don't know.

Prayer is not a substitute for building skills and building up yourself to establish wealth. Some people are prayer warriors but do not build any skills.
People who take off suddenly in life at some point discovered the key to success is personal growth and dedicated themselves to life-long learning.

Life doesn't begin until you are intentional. You have to have long-term and short term goals.

You can't be pitiful and powerful at the same time.

The starting point for achieving mastery is for you to commit to excellence.
If you are not getting better, you are getting worse.
Get up and spend the first hour investing in yourself.
Reading is key to exponential growth.
If you read in your field one hour a day, that will translate into about one book per week. 
Reading one hour a day for 3 years will make you a national authority.
Reading one hour a day for 7 yrs will make you an international authority
Rewrite your goals daily
- plan day in advance
-focus & concentrate on goals 
-invest your time in learning 
-read books 
-time invested in personal growth produces tremendous results
Treat everyone like a million dollar person especially subordinates, don't talk down on people because they are underneath you. Connecting with people won't be hard when you treat them well. #inspiration#personalgrowth#faith#womanhood

The existential crisis of Job: The search for meaning

The phrase " existential crisis" may sound deep and far fetched to you so lets use Job's story to set it up. Let's introduce Job, a wealthy man with kids who do what most rich kids do, they party. He has lots of land. Set up a large farm in your  mind and add some 7000 sheep, 3000 camels, 1000 oxen  and 500 female donkeys. You need a lot of land to hold all those animals! He is a man with so much integrity that one book of the bible is dedicated to him. The question is why did he have so many trials? Everything went wrong in Job's life, yes e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g. It all started with something he could not see in Job chapter 1. God boasts about Job and Satan tells God that the only reason Job serves him is because of the things God does for him.  His proposition is for God to let him , Satan, switch things around so that Job would curse God. God agrees but states that Satan cannot take Job's life.                 ...

The need to know the future

I read this verse today and an idea jumped out at me. Funny thing is, I have read it before and never really thought much about it. In this season there is more context for this verse because there is so much of a need to know the future right now. We need to know when things will go back to normal and sometimes that makes it difficult to adjust to the new normal. In this verse Jesus was saying to his disciples that it is not for them to know the times and seasons which are in the Father's hands. That statement reminded me that faith is trusting when we don't know. We won't always have answers or find them but we can find peace when we decide to let go of the need for answers and decide to trust. It's easier said than done but it is a process that we can work towards.
