The Gospel

What is the gospel?
What is the message?
What is preached?
Is it the sermon we hear every fellowship day, is it what our Pastors, Priest or Bishops preach to us or they are getting a fresh message? One coined by them to enrich themselves or one misinterpreted by them? Every denomination portraying different doctrine one away from the other yet it is said one Gospel is preached.
The question then, where is the difference coming from? Difference in the center of the message, doctrine and believe. Yet one Gospel is said to be the message
What then is the gospel, what then is really preached, who should we then believe? Is it the man that says no to heaven or hell or the

YBB Talk ::: Should I take any Job to get a Job

The question that is plaguing out-of-work job seekers is, “Should I take any job for the sake of having a job?” The answer, in simple terms, is you should do everything you can to avoid it. The most important thing for your career is to move forward. You may ask, “Am I not suppose to take a job unless it is my dream job?” The answer again is no. You can have several jobs until you are working in your ideal career but the key is with each successive job, you are getting closer and closer to your dream job. You are the CEO of your career; therefore, you must be strategic in planning your future. Can you imagine an elegant restaurant suddenly adding fast food to their menu because they heard that fast food profit was increasing? The idea is ridiculous. In the same way, you cannot take any job for the sake of making a few bucks. Think always of your future and ask yourself, “Does this job give me the experience I need to move forward to my ideal career?” The concept begs the question of, “What can I do if I need a job but I can’t move directly into my dream job now?”

1. Have a very clear vision of what your ideal career is (if you have not found it yet read Discover your purpose in 20 minutes). This is the foundation of your plan.
2. Gap analysis. Look at the job descriptions in your ideal career and determine what skills, experience, and knowledge are missing from your resume.
3. Fill in those gaps with positions that can build your experience. Determine only to take jobs that fill in the gaps. For example, if you dream of being a professor but have no teaching experience, consider taking a couple of part time teaching jobs maybe in extra moral classes or private secondary schools. The jobs may be lower paying than a full-time position in another industry, but in the end, you will receive greater payback. The recession won’t last forever and you will be in a position to be a much more experienced candidate when companies are in the hiring mode again.

Three Steps To Move Ahead In Your Career In order to move ahead in your career, you have to generate a lot of energy. Sometimes you can get stagnant and out of practice at making things happen. Here is a simple five-minute/three-step way to get back on track:
1. Review Your Goals Review your entertainment career goals to make sure they are clear and up-to-date. Maybe you thought you wanted to be a talent agent, but after six months on the desk of an agency power player, you changed your mind. What’s your goal now?
2. Describe Your Career Goals Create a really solid two to three sentence description of who you are and what your entertainment career goal is. This is also known as an “elevator pitch.” It’s called an elevator pitch because the time it takes to say it is supposed to be the same amount of time as a short elevator ride. You get on the elevator and there’s Bob, the guy your company just met with about a project. You want to meet him because you are dying to intern/work for his company. “Hi. My name is Emeka and I’m a DELSU student,” you say. “I want to work in movie marketing when I graduate and I’m looking for an internship for next semester.” Or, “My name is Joshua. I just graduated from School of Media and Communications and I’m looking for an opportunity to break into production.” With your pitch polished and ready to go, by the time those elevator doors open, you could have yourself a lead on that sought-after internship or job.
3. Introduce Yourself To Someone Now, reach out to someone you admire who doesn’t know you and introduce yourself. Don’t wait to luck into an elevator ride with Bob. Send him an e-mail, make a phone call, or go up to him at the studio commissary. Yes, you can do it. All you have to say is, “Hello, Bob, I don’t believe we’ve met.” And then lay out your elevator pitch. Bob might mumble a quick, “It’s nice to meet you” and move on to join his business associates for lunch. Or he might just tell you who to contact to talk about opportunities at his company. ***To be continued***

Discover your purpose in 20 minutes

Who am I?
Where am I?
Why am I here?
What can I do?
Where am I going to?
These are the regular questions asked on the road to fulfilling destiny. It is agreed that the path in fulfilling destiny is really not an easy task. Often as children, we had aspirations and dreams to become one thing or the other which was driven by a choice influenced by childishness, peer pressure, or even the immediate environment. But as we grow from childhood to adulthood, there is a drift from this passion, dreams and purpose we believed in, which we now see as only but a mirage. It is now dawn on us that life is not what we thought it would be. The question I ask you today is, have you found the need for existence, is there a course you are ready to die for or you live life just the way it comes?

Remember that ignorance of purpose does not cancel purpose so you must know what you are on earth for and achieve it. A great karate master once told his student who came to be tutored by him to get two cups and fill them with water. The student did as instructed. Then the master said 'these two cups represent you and me but yours cannot be filled by mine unless it is empty, you must come to me empty before you can be filled with the content of my cup (his knowledge)'.

The essence of this story is to let you understand that you must let go of your former belief and ideas and apply the principles that I'm about to share and in a moment you start living in accordance of your purpose.
Here are the steps to follow
1. Take out a blank sheet of paper or open up a word processor where you can type
2. Write at the top, “What is my true purpose in life?”
3. Write an answer (any answer) that pops into your head. It doesn’t have to be logical or comprehensive
4. Repeat step 3 until you write the answer that makes you cry (for those whose tears are not easy to come by, write until you write what touches you deeply, and makes you ponder). This is your purpose.

Irrespective of the profession, this exercise will perfectly work, although for some it might take as low as 10-15 minutes while for others 1 hour or more. However, whichever be the case stick to the exercise until you find purpose and next is begin to live it out.

In conclusion, as we grow older, we discover there is yet another drift. To some, this is the final stage while to others, it is still left undecided. But at this stage, purpose is better understood and mastered as you can now run with it and attain fulfillment. You will discover those childish thoughts and tendencies that you were tied to will no longer have a hold on you. You begin to run your own race in life and run a course to be among the men considered most desirable. 

9 ways to look more confident

By Mr.Marvelous 

 Body language can communicate your confidence or lack thereof. This can affect the outcome of a business or social situation at any point in time..

1. Lean forward:
 When talking to someone –it shows the other person that they have your attention and that you are interested in what they are saying.

2. Shake hands firmly:
At the beginning of any business interaction and at the end – this sets the tone for a professional conversation. Avoid the finger tip grab, wet fish handshake.

3. Walk with confidence:
When entering a room or walking with a colleague, use long strides, keep your head high and shoulders square. It will help you feel confident and make a lasting impression.

4.  Avoid crossing your arms or legs:
This makes you appear defensive and guarded. Sitting or standing with your shoulders straight and your arms relaxed in front of you communicates that you are confident and approachable.

5.  Maintain eye-contact:
When speaking, make eye contact but don’t stare. Lack of eye contact can mean you lack confidence and are a person not to be trusted.

If you are talking to several people, make sure you give them all some eye-contact. This creates a connection and ensures people are listening to you.

6.  Nod when others are talking:
When others are talking to you, nod occasionally to indicate you are listening to them and understanding what they are saying.

7.  Show good posture:
Don’t slouch, don’t lie down on. Rather stand with weight equally balanced on both legs and sit up on chair

8.  Hand gestures:
Stop fidgeting, touching your hair or biting your nails. Use your hands naturally whilst communicating with someone. Be careful of steepling, where the fingers are making a little “roof top” – many lawyers, politicians use this gesture to make them look powerful during negotiations.

If you need to gain someone’s trust avoid it – it will make you look arrogant. Don’t hide hands in pockets or behind you – at all times show your hands to gain people’s confidence.

9.  Smiling is a universal language:
If you smile at 10 people , nine will smile back – use it well and naturally. Smile and laugh when its appropriate. People will be more inclined to listen to you if they think you are a positive person.

Smile genuinely when you are being introduced to someone.

YBB Talk; Will They Get You The Job?

How many times have you been told not to use the same old cliché sayings in your CV? How many times have you heard that employers are tired of reading repetitive, regurgitated CV’s and want unique and original copy? Too many times to count I imagine…Well, ignore everything you’ve been told– things have changed! Once again, computers have stepped in and the process has changed. It’s now much more monotonous, thousands of CV’s are scanned at once, and there’s no time to waste being creative and eye catching here. It’s time to follow the herd and make sure your CV makes the cut. There is an art to keyword cramming in your CV and James Baker of Vivid Resourcing is here to show you how. So how does it work? Your e-mail across your CV, it’s placed on to a database with thousands of others and a computer program is used to pick out the CV’s with specific keywords, and these are the CV’s that are passed to HR. Here are some tips to make sure your CV makes the cut:
1.Copy Their Advert It’s more than likely the keywords the company is looking for. They are the very ones that they have included in their advert for the position. Don’t copy the advert word-for-word onto your CV, as at some point your CV will be read by human eyes. Butif you can makea list of keywords they’ve used (if they apply to you) andfigure out how to squeeze them in to your CV, this will help you passthe first stage screen test.
2.Visit Their Website Their website is going to be jam-packed full ofkeywords that they associate with the company,such as their values. Ifyour CV has keywords and their values match upthey’re going to want youon their team.
3.Seek Out Other Industry ‘Ads’ Take a look online for similar jobs advertised withinthe same industry.You’re going to see the same keywords crop up time and time again. These are the words you wantto be including in your CV. It’s best to review a large selection of adverts and to note down as many keywords as possible.The more you can match up with the employers’ computer program, the better your chances.
4.Read Up On Industry News Gather as many trade journals as you can find, paper back or online, and read up on what’s going on in your industry.The more informed you are the more likely that you will have just the keywords they’relooking for. If there are new developments or industry trends that you spot, gather keywords aroundthis, these are the kind of keywords that will get your CV to the top of the pile.
5.IncludePower Keywords This is something, historically, we've always included within our CV’s, however, after a backlash from various recruitment advice posts, was told this was a ‘no no.’ This is because candidates were promisedthat, if they used certain words, they would get the job. Then, suddenly the same key phrases were included in thousands of CV’s, resulting in a very laborious task for the HR department. This new way of including keywords requires a little more attention to detail. Do your homework, and include leadership and teamwork keywords that apply to your industry.This way you're not just reeling off the bog-standard catchphrases of the past, but are being industry specific, and tailoring to your job role.
6.Search for Industry Professionals On LinkedIn. LinkedIn is an excellent tool for establishing the keywords for your CV because it’s full of industry professionals. Their profiles will provide clues as to what your potential employers are looking for. Take a look ata handful of industry leaders’ profiles, and take note of any important words that crop up in each of their pages. Ideally, you wanta summary at the beginning of your CV with your skill set, which includes the keywords you have established using the above points. This gives the computer system and ultimately the interviewer easy access to the keywords. You then want to repeat the keywords throughout the CV, just in case they aren’t picked up initially. Remember though, your CV will be read by human eyes eventually and you want it to make sense and read well.http://www.facebook.com/itsyesboss
