Screenplay The Foundation Of Screenwriting

Screenplay changed all that. It laid out the principles of dramatic structure to establish the foundations of screenwriting. It was also the first book to use well-known and popular movies of the time to illustrate the craft of writing for the screen. And, as we all know, screenwriting is a craft that occasionally rises to the level of art.

How To Sell To Nigerians

I don't know about you, but I absolutely detest it when friends and family try to “force” me to buy what they are selling. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. You are on your own “jejely” and a cousin of yours who just opened his clothing line comes to you. He is just starting out and he needs your support. You are a nice guy and you feel you should support him. It doesn't even matter if his clothes are of top quality or not. Nothing wrong with that. After all, we all need support. No one has reached the top without being assisted by someone one way or the other. No human is an island. So you support. His kinds of clothes are not what you normally wear but you support nonetheless. You get the clothes and give away or keep in your wardrobe or at least wear them once to show your support. If the clothing are of top quality, you can even tag your cousin on social media so others can see. You mention him and his business to a few of your friends with the hope that the...

The Smart Money Woman

Most people don't know where the money they earn goes. What percentage of your income goes to food? Transportation? Clothes? Just like in any successful business where you track the revenue and costs periodically, it is also important to track the expenses in our personal lives. Nigerian women have to become the CFOs of their financial lives and learn to take control of the income they earn now, instead of waiting for their incomes to increase in the future before they learn to manage money. Some women have no idea how much their lifestyle costs. She may not spend recklessly, but she subconsciously develops a habit of spending—good or bad. If you don't treat the money you earn with respect, it will leave you with no respect. We have to learn to spend with intention by allocating oure resources to reflect the lifestyle we want and are able to sustainably afford. Click Here To Download The Book

Prayer Storm

A storm of prayer releases a storm of power. A prayer storm, to pull out some more dictionary definitions of storm, does not have to be compared only with weather terminology. You can have other kinds of storms: a storm of anger or protest; or a storm of the opposite emotion, such as a storm of laughter; a storm or bombardment of objects, a storm or torrent of communications, even a stormwindow (we could play with that one!). When we use the word storm as a verb, we talk about military-type storming of a fortified location, often suddenly and with great force, in order to attack and capture it. We speak of storming out of a room with violent anger, pushing forward like a thunderhead driven before the wind. We also, of course, say it is “storming” when the sky is dark, lightening flashes, and the wind blows, driving rain or snow before it. Click Here To Download The Book

The Energy Bus

Positive energy. . . . It’s a term being talked about a lot more frequently in conference rooms, classrooms, locker rooms, and even living rooms. Perhaps it’s because there is an abundance of new research that shows that positive people, positive communication, positive interactions, and positive work and team cultures produce positive results. Or perhaps at a deeper level we all know that every person, every career, every company, every organization, every family, and every team will have to overcome negativity, adversity, and challenges to define themselves and create success.

Gifted Hands

More blood! Stat!” The silence of the OR was smashed by the amazingly quiet command. The twins had received 50 units of blood, but their bleeding still hadn't stopped! “There's no more type-specific blood,” the reply came. “We've used it all.” As a result of this announcement, a quiet panic erupted through the room. Every ounce of type AB* negative blood had been drained from the Johns Hopkins Hospital blood bank. Yet the 7-month-old twin patients who had been joined at the back of their heads since birth needed more blood or they would die without ever having a chance to recuperate. This was their only opportunity, their only chance, at normal lives. Click Here To Download The Book

Smith Wigglesworth On Prayer, Power And Miracles

Dr. Lester Sumrall once told me a personal story about Smith Wigglesworth that illustrates his bold and unashamed personality. He told me how Wigglesworth would frequently travel with his daughter Alice. She had a hearing problem and would often sit and listen to her father’s sermons with a “hearing horn.” Once, a man yelled from the audience: “Wigglesworth! If you are such a healer in the power of God, then why does your daughter need a hearing horn?” Unshaken by the question, Wigglesworth looked to the man and said, “When you can tell me why Elijah was bald, I’ll tell you why Alice needs a hearing horn.” Smith Wigglesworth never minced his words, and he was never shaken by religious persecution. I admire that quality in Smith Wigglesworth. In fact, I’ve always loved his ministry. I am continually blessed by the mixture of his boldness, his faith, and his compassion. As I’ve traveled throughout the world, I’ve found that others have never grown tired of his ministry. Smith Wiggleswort...

Before Courtship

The desire of every young person is to find the missing bone! They want a sincere and peaceful home. They pray for it. They work for it. However, most young couple never had the experience because they missed the most important foundational aspects of the relationship- friendship. I said to a group of young people during a programme to court and marry their friends. They were confused. How can I marry my friend? Marrying my friend may make us too familiar with each other now. What will people say then? Then I asked, would you rather marry a stranger or your enemy? No one has ever marry a total stranger in the Bible. They were related one way or the other. In the same vein, friendship will “relate” you before the final decision is made. This friendship may not take too many years. It may be brief. But during this period, you relate well with each other. You relate freely. you laughed together without any reservation. You correct and affirm each other without any string attached. Your fr...

Spirit Of Leadership

There are many who confuse the position of leadership with the disposition of true leadership. No matter what position one may be given, status in an organization does not automatically create leadership. Genuine leadership is one’s internal disposition, which relates to a sense of purpose, self-worth, and self-concept. Click Here To Download The Book
