As we know, most of the people living in this world perform daily tasks so as to get continued sustenance packages they use and live on. Also, we all have unique ways of thinking and responding to activities around us, my point today is to constantly improve, no matter the kind of work or task we perform based on challenges we face in our tasks.
Everything we see in our world today is an improvement of one created in past either in service, machines, production lines and even health care. This is because new ideas excite life. It brings a certain level of joy along with it, a certain level of comfort and ease.
Today, I am writing this to bring to our understanding the fact that life is in phases, even life itself improves regularly, though due to impacts of man, but we should know that as long as we live, trying out new things, new concepts and ideas to further realize more results in what we do should be paramount in our lives.
It is a very simple concept, we yearn for new things we see daily, but the new things are product of improvement thought of by someone and implemented. The result then makes the person relevant and sought for by a lot of other people.
So also is daily improvement in on oneself, pick a book, do that research, write that article, start the new business, learn the trade, do whatever it is that would make you constantly reckoned with in this constantly changing world and you would see how much importance it brings to you, excitement you create for others and change you would have being able to support.
I wrote in the past on excellence and how it is an ongoing process, how it is what we should daily strive for, what we should know is that improvement on a regular basis in whatever we do is a strive towards excellence.
It is known that nothing of weight comes easy, but we should know that no matter how painful it is, the results are gainful and all it brings along with it when present are things that would make us happy.
There are no competition, relevance and better results without constant improvement no matter how small it is, and it is this little change that alters life in all aspects and makes it easier and better for others. So in whatever we do, striving to add our little quota to life is a major factor for living and we would be surprised how much it would add to life and things around us.

IMPORTANCE OF PRINCIPLES
There are things in this world that would always give the same results simply because of the principles attached to their performance or execution. To a large extent, our lives should have a pattern it follows so as to be able to replicate a kind of improvement or success we envisage and the pattern in this case are simply brought about by principles we should follow to give us expected results.
I took time to research the meaning of the word “PRINCIPLES” and I found out that they are standards we should live by to give us results we need. Even though we have to be flexible in the implementation of principles, they are must have as human beings.
Principles govern our emotions and feelings, it governs our attitude, character and disposition towards others. It defines the kind of person we are and also shapes our thought. With all these, I do not see why we should not address this topic.
Over time, I have written a little about becoming a leader and also performing efficiently in environment or situation we find ourselves, but to be that person, there has to be underlining facts we believe in and live our life by. This is because it is out of our laid down modes of operation and thought pattern we give judgment and respond to issues surrounding us. What we do not have we do not give.
I also wrote about Vision and its importance, seeing beyond and trying to pursue what we see to actualization, but the only way we can relate this to people so that they believe in us and in our vision is by the underlining principles we live by.
Principles are unchanging truths or general accepted facts, they give desired results when followed to detail. Principles define people and whoever trivializes the importance of principles is in for many struggles in his bid to achieve success. With this, I hope I have being able to make us see the importance of principles, why we should have them and live our lives by them.

LEARN TO SHARE
In the world we live in, processes, factors and activities intertwine with each other to continue occurrence. I would say it is more of symbiosis relationship all matter in this world operate by.
The land houses seeds and provides nutrients and minerals needed for plant to grow, this plants serves as food for living organisms which in turn digests the food and give out the waste product back to the earth or land in this case. The waste mixes with the soil in form of manure to give nutrients needed for the sustenance of the plants. By this process, a cycle is created, which means that one needs the other to survive. As simple as this process is, we should be able to learn from it that one exists for the continuing existence of the other.
All we know today was shared with us or taught to us by someone who had the understanding of the fact that time and chance is a major factor for continuance of life either knowingly or unknowingly. In whatever we do, all we strive for on a daily basis is becoming a LEADER, being recognized in line with what we do, and make impact.
In the daily pursuit of this fact, what we should know is that replicating what we have into others makes us better lead, influence and impact more. We need to always know that no matter the level we attain, we should never get distracted from the main issue which in this case is to map out new strategies and means to further get productivity in what we do. This in turn keeps us relevant and makes us a leader of repute. By this I mean the ability to always think out of the box to proffer new solutions to problems.
When a principle works for you in actualizing a task, all we need do is make the principle accessible to others so that they would also perform efficiently in related assignments.
We should never rejoice at the fact that a process, or progress stops due to our absence, this only gives unnecessary stress and distraction. A mentor of mine said “if you know how to drive a car and you do not teach anybody how to, the day you fall sick, nobody would be able to use the car to take you to the hospital”. When one has been able to replicate the values he possesses into others, delegation of duty is easier and assignments are done faster as two good head is better than one.
No matter what we do, the ability to create men and women with potentials is one of the greatest reasons why we exist, and the only way to do that is by sharing what makes us relevant into serious minded people. As long as we keep on performing our duties and improving ourselves, we would always be leaders to consult and we would never loose our relevance, also as a Yoruba adage says “A child might have as much cloth as an adult but would never have the same amount of rag as the adult”. This means the years of experience also makes you a leader of reference. This is am know for sure.
