INTENTIONAL SUCCESS VOL. 10




YOU ARE A GENIUS!
(You Have It in you!)
Weekly Motivation for 23rd November – 27th November 2015 by Ndimofor Aretas
Good Morning my dear ENTHUSIASTIC and TERRIFIC students!
            I will begin by thanking you for always giving me your undivided attention.  It greatly motivates me to make sure that I give you just my best and nothing less.
            After my last write – up, I have noticed that the rate of complaining has greatly reduced.  In fact, one student came up to me happily and said he will like to show me his list of reasons why he was grateful.  It was a very long list.  He went on to say how he was unaware of how talented he was until he had taken out time to write down all the other things he could do!
HOW LONG IS YOUR OWN LIST?
            I know that in my last write – up, I encouraged you to write down all the things you are grateful for.  Today, I am encouraging you to write down all your other talents including those other things you can do, and even those that no other person yet knows you can do. 
In my volume 12 write – up, I will be telling you why.  For now, in this write – up, I will be giving you a sample list of intelligences which can help you easily make up your list of talents.
Before I continue, I will like to let you know that;
YOU ARE A GENIUS!
Yes, YOU ARE!  YOU HAVE IT IN YOU!
            I know that whenever you hear of the word GENIUS, you only think of SOMEONE WHO HAS EXCEPTIONAL INTELLECTUAL ABILITY AND ORIGINALITY.  The most prominent name that comes to mind is ALBERT EINSTEIN!   
Well, you are not wrong, but if you still think that you are not A GENIUS, then
YOU ARE WRONG!
            I insist on this because another definition says that;
GENIUS IS NATURAL TALENT!
Aaaahhhhhhhh! So you see why I say YOU ARE A GENIUS!  Right?  Well, to make a distinction, let’s call the first one Genius (beginning with a capital G) like Einstein and the second one genius (with a small letter “g”) like YOU and I.
From birth, we are all geniuses (with a small letter “g”), meaning that we have more than 1 natural gift.
            Dr. Howard Garner of Harvard University, founder of the Concept of Multiple Intelligences discovered that we possess at least 10 different intelligences in any one of which we could be a Genius (with a capital G)!
            He wrote that ONLY 2 intelligences are MEASURED and REPORTED throughout school and university!  Those two are the VERBAL and MATHEMATICAL intelligences.
Other intelligences include:
Ø  Visio-spatial intelligence (for art, design,),
Ø  Entrepreneurial intelligence (for business startups),
Ø  Physical or kinesthetic intelligence (for sports),
Ø  Musical intelligence (for playing musical instruments, writing music),
Ø  Interpersonal intelligence (for getting along well with others),
Ø  Intrapersonal intelligence (for understanding yourself at a deep level),
Ø  Intuitive intelligence (for ability to sense the right thing to do or say),
Ø  Artistic intelligence (for creating works of art) or
Ø  Abstract intelligence (for physics, science).
He concluded that each person is capable of achieving excellence in some way in some area.
Right now, we have the ability to function at a genius or exceptional level in several different intelligences!
We have the ability to move form geniuses (with a small letter “g”) to Geniuses (with a capital G)!  Like Einstein…. 
IF AND ONLY IF WE ARE WILLING TO STAY POSITIVE, FOCUSED AND DISCIPLINED!
            You need to begin by seeing yourself as A BUNDLE OF RESOURCES. 
It is your job to FIND OUT HOW MANY OTHER INTELLIGENCES YOU POSSESS.  When you realise how much you have inside, you will begin to see yourself differently and become more and more confident!  You will also discover more and more in future.
            In my next write up, I will reveal to you how you can improve upon the talents you have and also discover new ones.
            In the meantime, be gentle with yourself, use more positive words when describing yourself, and use positive declarations in your favour.
In the King James Bible, Psalms 139: 14 says; I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvellous are thy works and that my soul knoweth right well.
Praise God for making you so talented and use those talents to glorify His name and become all he made you to be…. 
Declare from today that;
I will become a Genius (with capital G)
IN JESUS’ NAME,
AMEN.
