Master the ropes and don't be trapped

It's better to fail doing something, than to succeed doing nothing.
Never allow fear of the unknown trap you down.
Fear of family
Fear of friends
Fear of age
Fear of money
Learn the process, master the ropes.
Failure is nothing unless you defined it.
Nothing means anything except the meaning we give to it.
The dream of tomorrow is here and now!

Let's talk about Tony Elumelu

By -
Image
I am a member of "The Let's Talk About Series" community. I'll be sharing notes from one of the sessions we had this year. The session was on Tony Elumelu. ---------- (Diligent Amaka speaking) Tony Onyemaechi Elumelu (born 22 March 1963) is a Nigerian economist, entrepreneur, and philanthropist. He is the Chairman of Heirs Holdings, the United Bank for Africa, Transcorp and founder of The Tony Elumelu Foundation.

Success Story: How I went from a CGPA of 2.29 to 4.00 within a Semester

By -
Image
This is a Success Story shared by Olusola O'sola Fapohunda, a graduate of the Federal University of Technology, Akure. ----- In early 2010, I went with about four other guys in my department - to visit our level registration officer. We wanted to check our result. Each one of us, was with a paper and a pen. The lecturer in charge asked for our matriculation numbers and one after the other, he was reeling off grades, GPA and CGPA. He eventually got to me and I heard a digit that sounded like I've been shot. God! Me! 2.29. I've earned myself Grade E in some three unit courses and my best course was APH301, which I had a B with a score of 69. About six months later, I went to check my 300 level second semester result and I now had a CGPA of 4.00. That was the happiest day of my University education. I was rolling on the floor of the room. The previous semester has been hell, yet the one that followed it yielded this awesome result! What did I do? What did I change? What s...

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...

When You drop the Wrong one, the Right one will come

I think I need to have an office in my kitchen because it seems to me like almost all my inspirations stem from there. ----- One day, Dave entered the kitchen and took an uncooked potato in his hands, crying to be allowed to eat it. I said to him, "No drop that. That's not your food." He refused. He turned his back on me and was bent on eating the uncooked potato. Unknown to him, I had already served his food and was only waiting for him to drop what he occupied his hands with so that I can give the food to him. But David refused to drop the uncooked potato. Then, I said to him, "See your food, David. Drop that one." When he heard that, he turned to look at me and saw the food in my hands. Immediately he saw the food, he dropped the uncooked potato and took his food with his two hands. I smiled. ----- What is that thing God's been trying to get you to put down so that He can give you what is right for you? For how long will you turn your back a...

Loyalty to the Past

By -
Image
"The past is a nice place to visit but never a great place to stay". We all are where we are today because of our past decisions and actions. Our present is a factual reflection of how great our past was. We all have past, filled with different experience. Our past is always on the increase while our future on decrease. We all dream of a greater and better future but we are still loyal to our past. We can't create the future of our dream with the same attitude, perspective, relationships and decisions that created our today. What brought us here, wouldn't take us there. We need to let go the gory of the past. Take the lessons from it and move on. Ask yourself, Can I create the future I want with the same set of people I created today with? Loyalty to the past lies in our decision to continue living the way we've been living, doing things the way we've always done it, thinking the way we've always thought, reacting instead of acting and staying where we...

The Principles are Universal, but Our Pathways and Circumstances could differ

By -
Image
No matter how spiritual you are, I may not agree with you on all issues. You may have personal beliefs that resulted from your experiences over time, that doesn't make it God's Word or changes God's word. We live by faith and not by experience. There may be universal principles but different pathways and circumstances influenced by our levels of appreciation of God's word. Don't impose your experiences on people in the name of wisdom. True wisdom is God's word. Teach the word and allow people move at their pace taking baby steps until they master their own art of absolute dependence on God. My confessions are powerful, they may not be reasonable but I am what I believe. I have chosen not to bend them to suit experiences, I have chosen to make them all positive. You will only receive to the extent of your beliefs and persuasion. If God is a Toyota to you, he will remain a Toyota, but if God is a Lamborghini, he will remain same to you. Don't assume becaus...

The Gospel, a Goodnews

By -
Image
One of the most divisive edicts in Christian theology is the instruction to "Preach the Gospel and make disciples of all men." Some have taken this to mean conversion, whether the people want it or not. Others have embraced the mindset that Christians are better than those they seek to convert and that they are privy to a secret non-converts are unaware of. At the extreme, some forcefully proclaim that all non-converts are going to hell. I am not here to debate the veracity of the foregoing. What I am trying to do is to understand the spirit of the conversion mandate and to envision it from a place of love and mercy. Perhaps, preaching the Gospel is about the good news of a beautiful affirming relationship and not a judgment call about differences in ideology. By: Subomi Plumptre

Wisdom

By -
Image
If you discover you are one of the few that operate in extraordinary wisdom, don't be too hasty to lend your voice to every trend and discussion because your suggestions and contributions will almost always stick and be accepted as a truth even when it is not because people have over times watched your consistency in display of wisdom. Some people are here to steer others aright. If you are one of those God has given this responsibility, you have to be very careful so you don't lead many to destruction. If people listen to you when you talk, agree almost all the time to your contributions on a pressing issue or seek your contribution before making a conclusion to an issue, just know you may be one of the rare breeds, you may be one of the Custodians of wisdom notwithstanding your age. The best thing to do in situations when your opinion is sought and you are not very informed or convinced about an issue is to be silent or to pend your contribution. This will save you a lot o...
