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!

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. Elumelu holds the Nigerian national honours, the Commander of the Order of Nigeria (CON) and Member of the Order of the Federal Republic (MFR). He was recognised as one of "Africa's 20 Most Powerful People in 2012" by Forbes Magazine.

Keep Walking!

Johnny Walker must have been greatly inspired when he made this inspirational declaration. Sometimes, you want to stop everything and just hide... Keep walking. There are times the wind would make you consider sliding backwards... Keep walking. There are times you question yourself... Keep Walking. There are times you just want to swim in the ocean of lamentations and self pity... Keep Walking. Even when you pause to reassess your journey, let your mind Keep Walking. For what we should not afford is Stagnation, Time wasting, Procrastination, Idleness... Even if we could afford these, Walking has shown to be a Great Exercise! Keep Walking! Credit: Nengi Lawson Snr

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...

Law of Life

By -

When a Newspaper Reporter interviewed a farmer who grew Award-Winning Maize each year he entered his maize in the Agricultural Show, it was revealed that the farmer shared his seed with his neighbours. Perplexed, the reporter asked, “How can you afford to share your best seed with your neighbours when they are entering their maize in competition with yours each year?” The farmer smiled knowingly and explained, “The wind picks up pollen from the ripening maize and swirls it from field to field. If my neighbours grow inferior maize, Cross-Pollination will steadily degrade the quality of my maize. If I am to grow good maize, I must help my neighbours grow a good crop.” So it is with our lives. Those who want to live meaningfully and well, must help enrich the lives of others. For the value of a life, is measured by the lives it touches. And those who choose to be happy, must help others find happiness. For the welfare of each is bound up with the welfare of all. Call it power of colle...

Sports this Week: Neymar Jr becomes world's most expensive football player and second highest paid player in the world

Image
Its been an interesting week in the world of football. For the past few days, and many days to come, the world will be talking about Neymar Jr. Photo Credit: metro.co.uk 25 years old Neymar da Silva Santos Júnior became the world most expensive football player after Paris Saint-Germain made a payment of €222 million (about £200 million) to Barcelona, which is the value of the release clause in Neymar's contract. The deal was completed on Thursday, August 3, and would keep him at PSG till 2022. Many thought it was all rumours till it became official. The deal makes Neymar Jr the second highest paid player in the world (£515,000-per-week) after Carlos Tevez (Shanghai Shenua, £615,000-per-week). Neymar takes the number 10 Jersey, which was handed over to him by Javier Pastore. Neymar would definitely do great in PSG. Let's hope he wins the champions league with them and the balon d'or soon. There were a number of other completed transfers within the week. Let ...

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...

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

Giving a Positive meaning to the WHY

By -
Image
To learn, unlearn and relearn is a great path to personal growth. The room was packed with "hungry folks" as the music played and men reminiscent through their yonder days. Step by step, the mind travelled back to where it all began. The events that shaped us unveiled. We reached out to the files, dusted them and gave a positive meaning to every snap shot captured. You see, nobody is really bad, people just do bad things. Ted Bundy was known to all who knew him as a charming man. He was a volunteer at a suicide hotline and a college graduate. However, he was executed for the murder of 40 women in the '80s. Poland's famous serial killer Karl Denke was an active member of his community and even was an organist in church. Hmmm!!! People do what they do because of what they have been exposed to. People do the best they can with what they know. When you see people behave the way they do, be rest assured that the innocent mind has captured some snap shots and has giv...

You will find money in these three places

By -
Image
Money is hiding in things people don't want. Over the weekend, I listened to the speech of a top network marketing guru in South Africa and these are the points he mentioned about money and where you can get it. He said that one will only find money in these three places: The first place where one will find money is with people. All businesses need people to make money. Doctors need people to make money and they call those people patients. Checkers and Woolworths needs people to make money and they call them customers. Mortuaries need dead people to make money. If one runs away from people, one is running away from wealth. If one says that he/she is shy and can't talk to people, then it means poverty will be one's best friend. The second place one can find money is to find solutions to people's problems. Most people run away from problems because they don't want to find solutions to the problems. That's why we don't last in things that we start because i...
