The decision to grow always involves a choice between risk and comfort. This means that to be a follower… you must renounce comfort as the ultimate value of your life.

Do you know that statistics show that by January, gyms see an attendance increase of 25 -30%
Only to lose it in less than six(6) months (me wey dey talk no be say i dey perfect 🫠)

I started this way because I not only see an increase in January but also in December, and this happens every year
These people come for help only because the end of the year comes with reflections, and the New Year comes with “New year resolutions”.

After some weeks, these people are nowhere to be found.
But I have a method of knowing if someone really wants change, or they are here to joke

I think it will help you know if you are ready for Change

THE METHOD

  1. I establish a small, immediate assignment

  2. I define roles and responsibilities

  3. We discuss commitment and logistics

  4. I also ask about their specific, measurable goals

  5. Lastly, how much they have prepared 

Action

What it Reveals

Ask about specific, measurable goals.

Do they have a clear idea of what they want to achieve, or are they just looking for general advice? Serious disciples come with defined short- and long-term objectives (e.g., "I want to improve my public speaking skills" instead of "I want to be better at my job").

Inquire about their preparation.

Have they researched you, do they know any messages I have preached on the subject matter. A serious disciple will have specific questions about theri experience and a clear reason why they chose you.

Discuss commitment and logistics.

Define a mutually agreed-upon meeting schedule (e.g., "We will meet every two weeks for an hour"). Many disciples don’t commit to a consistent schedule and prioritize these meetings.

Define roles and responsibilities.

Stress that the disciple drives the relationship. You are the guide, but they are responsible for the work. Ask, "What do you see your role as in this relationship?"

I establish a small, immediate assignment.

Give them a quick task to complete before your first formal session
Many of them never come back after this
