Pressure cooking your goals: Talk less achieve more model

Pressure cooking is the process of cooking food under high pressure steam, employing water or a water-based cooking liquid, in a sealed vessel known as a pressure cooker. High pressure limits boiling, and permits cooking temperatures well above 100 °C (212 °F) to be reached.

A stovetop pressure cooker works by expelling air from the vessel, and trapping the steam produced from the boiling liquid inside. This raises the internal pressures and permits high cooking temperatures. This, together with high thermal heat transfer from the steam, cooks food far more quickly, often cooking in between half and a quarter the time for conventional boiling. After cooking, the steam pressure is lowered back to ambient atmospheric pressure, so that the vessel can be opened safely.

Almost any food that can be cooked in steam or water-based liquids can be cooked in a pressure cooker.

Goal accomplishment - the pressure cooker model

What most people don't know is how much of the power to accomplish is lost to an indiscreet and garrulous nature. Apart from witches and demonic forces, which shall die by fire, nothing has robbed and hindered more people than an indiscreet tongue of an untrained mind. It won't take you a long look around to see how many destiny have been truncated due to an unbolted tongue. Most times, what we call demonic attacks are just our own causing just by failing to train ourselves on the proper use of our tongues. The good book says power of life and death are the power of the tongue. I have met thousands of people who live below par but talks a good game with a glorified zero result. To be honest, I was of this stork until I kept analysing how empty I felt after giving away to much information than necessary. Then I started practicing the art of talk less do more, then I started seeing challenges as a stepping stone. 

Most times, we think talking about a potential project or goal shows our vast knowledge. However, the reverse is the case. Too much talk reduces the internal pressure needed to get the task done. It much more makes one look really stupid afterwards. 

Keep your mouth shut unless you have to open up for the case of acquisition of wisdom. Your say how do you know when to talk about something? I say to you, listen to the Holy Spirit. If your tongue has been your leader, then you need the help of the Holy Spirit to help bridle it and bring it under control. You can also talk when you are seeking wisdom, or talking to an investor. But don't forget to protect yourself because human nature is full of weird fallibility. 

A story resonates well in my life, during one of my sojourn in another foreign land. I met someone who wanted to further their study in the UK. This person started telling every passing human about their trip, I even remember people holding a send-off party for this person before they had gotten their visa. I sat the person down and warned him about their approach, but most times we don't value information until donkeys starts yelling at us! Oh! I am thinking you're wondering whether they didn't get their visa? Not getting the visa would have been fine, what happened was mysteriously the person's international passport disappeared when they were about to go apply for their visa. Which meant automatic delay. Imagine the level of wickedness in the heart of people, I mean the ones that you think are friends. This real life story is a pointer to another reason why you should learn the art of keeping your vision discreet. The Bible only suggested to write the vision down and make it plain. The Bible never instructed us to go tell your vision on the mountain, safe the word of God. 

Some people will not wish you evil, but due to their love for you and their understanding of the complexity of the project, would talk you out of your destiny. They're what I call sympathetic or considerate hindrances. It is not their fault, but your lack of belief in yourself. However, you should be very careful of the sympathetic hindrances. They don't mean you evil, but they bring it to you by their sympathy. You'll hear them say, trust me brother, don't do it if is too difficult, you will need x y and z but you only have a and b. Trust me brother, I have done it before but I failed 20 million times, or they might recount numbers of people that have tried and failed at every attempts. They know a thousand and more ways you'd never succeed. After talking to sympathetic hindrances, the best part of your little fire has been quenched by a tsunami. 

When we talk too much about a potential goal, you're only boasting. Hence, depicting yourself at the child of Satan. So when they are praying for Satan to die by fire at MFM or other prayerful church, do you think you'd be spared?! Or when the Muslims are stoning satan during hajj, do you think you'd go untouched?! 

Dear brothers and sisters, let's learn to keep the pressure in but let little out to maintain your course to the destination.

In a nutshell, stop being garrulous. Stop talking too much to everyone about your undone projects, only talk to those who can help maintain your course towards your destination. Those who can help provide comforting and supportive information when you need them. Only those who would hold you accountable to your set goals, only those who would pray along with you and not enviously wish you hell from the depth of their hearts. To fulfill your dreams, one of the things to do is to train your tongue. It is really that easy but not easy.

As highlighted in the introduction, after the process of pressure cooking, the pressure is slowly released to enjoy the savoury delicious meal we culinary invented. Which shows that we are to allow our output gratify our input and process. For when we talk too much, we lay too much emphasis on the input leaving little or no room for the consideration of the process and output. 

Almost every goal is achievable if we only learn to keep majority of the information locked up and portion revealed to trusted people that'd help us.
