5. INTRODUCTION
Being a believer without adequate impact on your
business organization, or your company is an error
and a reproach to God and His kingdom.
I have discovered in life that what makes great and
mediocre people is in their patterns of thinking.
Nothing makes any man „who‟ he becomes like the
way he thinks; his belief-system/ideology
Becoming a world-changer does not depend on your
profession, position, size/class of your
organization/company, location, salary/wages/benefit
s nor age.
Changing an organization, a company, a country—or
a world—begins with the simple step of changing
yourself.

10. FOUNDATION: HOW TO
“BECOME THE CHANGE” YOU
INTEND TO CREATE? (My diary).
The most important factor in your world are
people (Gen.1:28). In other words, until you
“become the change” to dominate your job, you
don‟t become a person of influence.
You can‟t influence your business organization,
your company, until you make your world
believe in your ideology (John1:1).
Bill Gates, Enoch Adeboye, David Oyedepo
and the likes, are not just persons, but
ideologies. Irrespective of the environment,
these men will still create the same desired
change (Gen.1:28-dominion).

11. HOW TO “BECOME THE
CHANGE” YOU INTEND TO
CREATE?
1. Cultivate the “change-agent” mentality
about work:
This is the first step of becoming the
change you intend to create. With this in
mind, you are strategically positioning
yourself on the cutting-edge as a change
agent.

CHANGE” YOU INTEND TO
2. CREATE?
Raise your standard (what is demanded of
oneself?):
History chronicles the inspiring examples of people
like Abraham Lincoln, Helen Keller, Mahatma
Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Jr., Albert Einstein,
Soichiro Honda, and many others who took the
magnificently powerful step of raising their standards.
Nothing lesser than excellence must be tolerated
Excellence is more than well done. (what is
excellence). Excellence means going beyond the mark,
delivering superior quality, producing works of
distinction and constantly upgrading and refining..

13. HOW TO “BECOME THE
CHANGE” YOU INTEND TO
CREATE?
3. Change Your Limiting Beliefs (possibility
mentality- a function of mental exposure,
information & association):
Our beliefs are like unquestioned commands,
telling us how things are, what's possible and
what's impossible, what we can and can not do.
They shape every action, every thought, and
every feeling that we experience.
How much do you think Gandhi would have
accomplished had he not believed with every
fiber of his being in the power of nonviolent
opposition?

CREATE?
Change your strategy
In order to keep your commitment, you need the
best strategies for achieving results. One of my
core beliefs is that if you set a higher
standard, and you can get yourself to believe
it, then you certainly can figure out the
strategies.
Some strategies are: Role-model/mentor
strategy, time management strategy, skill
upgrade strategy, extra-expectation
strategy, personal grooming and dress etiquette
