LEARN TO BE CONFIDENTIAL!
One piece of wisdom you need to have to go very far in life is not to be a parrot in your relationship with people. Let confidentiality be your stronghold, and you will then be able to move with important people. It will help you to become a high flyer.
Poor people with a poor mentality talk too much. Educated illiterates do the same. Have you ever said something that you wish you had not said in a moment of anger, frustration, immaturity, or when your mouth was itching, and you wish you had never said it?
I worked in Nigeria from 1986 to 1990 for a company, and I was very close to the owner, who had a strong connection to the military. He used to take some staff with him whilst visiting senior military officials and his friends. The next morning, everyone would know because those guys wouldn't keep their mouths shut.
As young as I was, he decided to take me with him, and that was the last time anyone knew what my boss was up to. They were not all pleasant experiences, but I kept his secret secret. He made me the project manager over 200 staff, and I was the youngest.
I took that nature to the UK, where I joined a church and became very close to my pastors, especially my spiritual father, Prophet Timothy Obadare. Again, over the 15 years I served there, no one accused me of disclosing information I was entrusted with or made privy to.
I took that quality into the legal profession and my pastoral duties. I know too much about people’s lives because they voluntarily told me, and the secrets will go with me to the grave. If you don’t disclose it, your secrets are safe with me. My wife will say, “My husband will not talk”.
Friends, people should be able to trust you with their secrets: Health, marital, financial, career, and spiritual matters. Stop talking like a parrot and do not disclose information about people without their permission.
Do not disclose details of your relationship with people the moment you are angry or there is a fallout. You are a baby and immature.
To rise, you need to be trusted, and this applies to every facet of life. You need important people in your life, and it is not easy to rise alone. Most of the people you are talking to cannot help you. It is usually a circle of low-life people. Zip your mouth and grow up.
Once the trust is gone, people will avoid you, and you will shut the doors of favor and help against yourself. You will destroy powerful relationships that can become your ladder to success. Resist the urge to spill it all. Have you gained something today? Share the post.

I saw bees in their hives and when I looked to see what they were doing and I saw they were making lots and lots of honey. I heard The Lord say: “See I have created the bees to do just what they do naturally and to create balance in the ecosystem. I have sent them in this season to produce honey in masses and give to my children. For in this season I am building the church into colonies that will fill up earth. Every where you look you will find a colony that is occupied by my children; one colony after another. This will serve as reminder that you are in this world but you are not of this world. This honey serves as My abundance, prosperity, provision, preservation, nourishment, favor; honey of sweetness and gladness. You will desire this honey that drips from My honeycomb for it offers encouragement, comfort and strength. It will reach the deepest of your being and refresh your souls. You will eat of this honey and gain deep insight, wisdom and knowledge. It further serves as a reminder that I am The honey brings you together.
I will be in the established in the earth. Yes, I will established in the nations.”
