What are you going to do for Someone else's Freedom?

I am skinny and I don't like cold. My lips quiver, my speech seizes, my nose shoots out mucus with every sneeze and I think my metabolism stops too, except my kidneys. It starts to produce urine like a liquor factory. The toilet must be within few paces away. Where there's no toilet, I can't handle myself when you put me in a cool room. My feet grow numb, I may have to postpone my presence at a meeting or a discussion to use the bath or the bush. I can cope with no fan or air conditioner all year long. Just give me a damn sweater and a wooly duvet, I'll be good for all seasons! But there is another type of cold I've grown used to. It's the place my unconventional ideas push me when I ever open my mouth. It's a damn cold feeling to be ostracised by people who once used to give you a warm hallelujah when you said something they agreed with. Now, no chants of acceptance, no chorus of praise, no little short speeches telling you how wonderful you are. You ar...

To be Successful, One must love Patience and Enjoy the Process

There has never been more pressure than it is now for young entrepreneurs to become millionaires. So because I post on Facebook daily, friends and family assume that I'm one multimillion dollar ultra successful entrepreneur (which I am anyways). The other day I was with my best friend and he asked me jokingly, "when will you marry?" My response was, "heck! At age 30 I should have travelled to at least 10 countries in the world and you're here talking of marriage", "who marriage epp?" We both laughed. What does this mean? Pressure! There's pressure to marry. Pressure to "hammer". Pressure to become a millionaire. Pressure to start "supporting" the family. Damn it! Pressure everywhere! So you see young people running here and there with the desire to "make it in life". Suddenly, a graphic designer somewhere in Rumuola feels he's a failure because he doesn't have up to 1M in his account. Everyone seems to...

Why Salt kills earthworms?

By -
Image
A lot of us have become used to using salt to kill earthworms when we encounter any in our houses. I've thought about this for a while now, but I recently decided to check it up and I'll share what I learnt about the science. Before that, I'll share some points about earthworms: - They are in the lumbricus genus, there are various species of earthworms, but the common earthworm's scientific name is lumbricus terrestris - Their digestive system runs through the length of their skin - Earthworms respire through their skin - They are hermaphrodites (each one carries both male and female sex organs) - They lack either an internal skeleton or exoskeleton , but maintain their structure with fluid-filled coelom chambers that function as a hydrostatic skeleton. Okay, let's talk about salt and earthworms: Earthworms respire and secrete mucus through their skins. Salt (sodium chloride) has the ability of absorbing moisture (desiccant). When a large quantity of salt i...

Create a new TV Channel

By -

We all know how to use the remote control to change the channels on the TV. If we see something we don’t like, no big deal, we just change the channel. I know I do that a lot. I always say to myself that, “my eyes will see no evil”. We need to learn how to mentally change channels when negative images of the past pop up in our minds unexpectedly. You have to let go of the past and stop feeling sorry for yourself. You can’t do anything about what’s happened to you, but you can choose how you will face what’s in front of you. Create a new TV channel for your mind. Now program this channel with positive memories to replace the ones you are leaving behind. Be sure to delete "past failure" and trust God for a renewing of mind and a better future. Then you can change your channel to "New creation channel” (NC Channel) Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has gone, the new has come! (2 corinthians 5 vs 17) Emmanuel Christian

Never Ask Them For Money

By -
Image
When you meet Dangote today or someone who can take you to the next level, what would you ask from him? How would you play and how would you beg? The worst thing you can ask from wealthy people or those in position of authority is money, because they wouldn't give you enough if they even give you at all. That doesn't mean that they are wicked people who don't like to give or help, it is because they are wealthy not rich, so they don't have much to give you. If you are "cash happy", you are said to be rich. If you are "asset happy", you are said to be wealthy. And since being asset happy or acquiring a lot of assets is one of the ways the wealthy get their money to work for them, they are more often than not well invested in their businesses and assets to have enough cash with them to share around. So, they hardly have money to give. And it stresses them when such request is slightly suggested. This is why your high earning uncle who works wit...

20 Lessons from Life

By -

The other day I watched a wild dog dart in front of my vehicle. I wasn't moving too fast and so was able to avoid it. But I wondered what would have befallen the poor dog, if it had crossed the path of another driver moving at a faster pace. Many live that way; running fast along the road of life, oblivious of danger or peril. There are many lessons life can teach us, if we would be observant. There are principles we can learn daily. Here are a few of mine: • Never toy with lives or treat serious matters with levity. There is a man King Solomon once described. He plays with fire and after he has burned the house down, he sputters, "But...I didn't mean it"! • Never take "Panadol" for another man's headache. Let adults figure out their own issues. It is patronizing to assume you know better. • Like the adage states, "When hunters learn to shoot without missing, birds learn to fly without perching." Adapt to changes in your relationships, espe...

Tithing (by Olulade Ebenezer)

There has been a lot of controversy with regards to tithing, just recently. I happen to come across Olulade Ebenezer's posts on this subject, and I'll be sharing the posts today. ----- I have been reading and seeking to breathe from the cloud of words on the subject of Tithing. My timeline contains no other posts these days...not even on Salvation or Faith. I've come to accept the metamorphosis the Church must compulsorily undergo. It is ugly at this stage. My posts are precious to me and I would like them to contain views I have concretized. And here are a few. Does God really care what particular percentage I give to him? No. The money I divide into ten and drop in a box for the church; is it different from those who don't actually calculate but give a tenth mindlessly on one random Sunday? No. Matthew 23:23 was not Jesus' instruction to Christians to tithe. He was rather making a comparison regarding Kingdom values between Tithing and the ranks of Judgment,...

I am a member of "The Let's Talk About Series" community. I'll be sharing notes from Tobi Afolabi (TASpeaks) on Comportment and Etiquette, a lesson delivered this year, in the month of February. Let's Talk About Series is a personal and career development discussion platform that discuss diverse topics to help boost people's productivity and build personal confidence. They are passionate about self discovery, and believe the strife for personal development helps in adding value to one's life; creating opportunities and setting priorities for the areas that make them most effective. You can check out the community on Facebook. ----- Tobi Afolabi: If I were to ask what we love most about Pastor E. A. Adeboye, I am likely to get comments such as he is humble, generous, polite, well dressed, cultured... If I ask same for Buhari, Dangote, Steve Harris, Jimi Tewe and many more, I am equally likely to get a similar feedback. Doesn't it amaze you that we...
