Quotes for this Week

By -

Today, I share some quotes from a friend. Let's be inspired by these quotes.

• I learnt how to play the keyboard the wrong way. I loved short cuts so I boycott all the fingering trainings and exercises because I wanted to play fast. Of course, I did play fast but I have not progressed much because I didn't allow process to take its course. Any process you deliberately ignore will laugh at you in your face. Process, though may be slow, gives lasting advantage.

• It is more useful to speak the truth before a legal conviction than after. Of what impact is the truth when it comes ill-timed.

• When the voice of the hopeless is neglected long enough, the voice of the hopeless may become the voice of the people.

• We may have mastered the taming of our eyes and mouths from evil, but there is one powerful doorway to our spirit we neglect - our ears. Block listening to negativity with all you have. Faith comes by hearing, so does fear and defeat.

Relationship Series (Introduction)

Some years ago, I began to have some thoughts about life. Everyday, we come across people who put up false happiness. Everyone's trying to be truly happy, and everyone surely deserves that, because there's no life without happiness. But a lot of persons are much unhappy inside than they seem to be. Sometimes the pain they feel deep inside gets to a threshold, where they can't keep on putting up false happiness, and their true feelings are more often expressed. For a good number of persons, they redefine happiness, and their definition of happiness does not bring them true happiness, though it feels so at the beginning, but at the end, it only adds to the pain they already feel. At the same time, their search for happiness causes pains to others who are averagely happy or whose happiness is below average. Relationships are part of life. Everything about life thrives on relationship. For every society to be progressive, there must be a greater part of the society with posi...

Why Salt kills earthworms?

By -

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...

To be Successful is to be Intentional

By -
Image
To be successful is to be intentional. When I say intentional, I mean to be deliberate. Success are not for mere wishers. You plan for it and you work for it. If wishes were the magnetic properties that drag Success to a man, then the fairy tale story wouldn't have been fairy tale, cause every lady would want to have her happy ever after, every servant would want to be the king with the most beautiful girl as wife and every warrior wouldn't need to step outside the boundary of their village for warfare. You see, we could sit all day and whine about how things ought to be but if we don't stand up to "Our" responsibilities nothing will ever change. I'm specific on the term "our" because a lot of persons and mostly young folks have got it all wrong. You have a role to play! Create your niche and build value. In general, Success could be the actualization of a set goal or task but in the eagles view true success lies in building and adding value to th...

Don't let the experiences define You, no matter how much it tries to

By -

Some people are afraid to hope because they have been hurt so much in life. They have had so many disappointments, they don't think they can face the pain of another one. Therefore, they refuse to hope so they won't be disappointed. This avoidance of hope is a type of protection against being hurt. Disappointment hurts! So rather than be hurt again, many people simply refuse to hope or to believe that anything good will ever happen to them. This type of behavior sets up a negative lifestyle. Everything becomes negative because the thoughts are negative. Remember Proverbs 23:7 – For as he (a person) thinks in his heart, so is he. By: Abeyi Kingsley Onoriode

From Jude's Wall (Part 2)

• Eyes are the second most complex organ after the brain. •  Your eyes start to develop two weeks after you are conceived. • A fingerprint has 40 unique characteristics, but an iris has 256; a reason retina scans are increasingly being used for security purposes. • To protect our eyes, they are positioned in a hollowed eye socket, while eyebrows prevent sweat dripping into your eyes and eyelashes keep dirt out of your eyes. • Your eyeballs stay the same size from birth to death, while your nose and ears continue to grow. • An eye is composed of more than 2 million working parts. • Only 1/6 of the human eyeball is exposed. • Corneas are the only tissues that don’t have blood. • People who are blind can see their dreams if they weren’t born blind. • An eye cannot be transplanted. More than 1 million nerve fibers connect each eye to the brain and currently we’re not able to reconstruct those connections. Qoute: "An interesting thing about science is that it is true whether...

Place Your Light on a lamp stand and let it Shine

I was on one of my favorite spots reading with my phone, when two young ladies, one in bum shorts (I hate when ladies wear this outside) just showcasing themselves in front of me. I lifted my head and looked, then smiled and shook my head as if I didn't see anything. I continued my reading. After plenty effort to gain my attention, by one of them, they advised themselves. One said to the other, why you just dey show yourself, which boy weh go call you for here? I smiled again, then two ladies beside me joined in the discussion. No be boy dey here, one of them mentioned. The other lady replied her saying, "this one na pastor o, em no get time". And as if that was not enough, the other lady went on to ask, "abi em no get prick, no be man em be?". This time I was shocked. I smiled again and pretended as if I didn't hear what she said. In my heart I replied, I have prick but my prick is under control, my prick does not control me nor dictate for me. Why my sto...

Success Story: Sir James Dyson

By -
Image
Sir James Dyson is a British inventor, industrial designer and the founder of Dyson company. He's presently 70 years old (born in 1947). He was involved in some inventions including the sea truck in 1970, the Ballbarrow (his first original invention) and the Wheelboat, which can travel on both land and water. James Dyson is best know for inventing the Dual Cyclone bagless vacuum cleaner, the world's first bagless vacuum cleaner. Before it's invention, the hoover vacuum was in use but this vacuum had a dust bag which get clogged with dust and this affects its performance, as it losses suction. It took over 5,000 trials and failures and about 5 years (with support from his wife's salary as an art teacher) before Dyson succeeded. When he finally did at the age of 36, no distributor in the United Kingdom wanted to market his product. He had to market his product in Japan (1983) where it was awarded an industrial award. Three years later (1986), Dyson obtained his first US...

I Lost Myself, I Found Myself, Again!

I was nothing special. I get that. I come from humble beginnings. Zero silver spoon in my mouth. In school, I didn’t fit in. Wasn’t given much of a chance. A teacher told me I’d never make a head-on in writing. I didn’t believe him (Trust your instincts versus your critics). I kept on moving ahead. I understood the power of ferocious learning – reading books constantly, studying the best consistently and putting in the effort relentlessly. I made seemingly insignificant small acts that to me revealed a beautiful progress. Quietly proving my naysayers knew nothing. Anyone can put someone down. Heroes lift others up. Thanks to another teacher of mine. In Jss2 – my Yoruba teacher. She saw something in me that nearly no one had. She encouraged me – and helped me believe in myself. Via her, my self-perception changed. My interior story transformed. I’ll always revere her for this. I've had disposed papers where I penned my writings. I couldn't get any published. I started with...
