Be Prepared to run your race till you hit your target

By -

People very close to me will understand this statement better: 'I know where I am going to'.

Some people are alighting along, so 50 naira is enough, others will be alighting at two bus stops ahead, 100 naira will be enough for them too, but for those that are planning to alight on a far continent, carry extra cash. It is called preparation.

Don't be intimidated when people alight at their destination, focus on yours, carry enough transport for your own journey, run your race, you will get there but in your own time, don't be distracted. 2017 may have not been your time, 2018 may not even be your time but you will definitely get to your destination provided your journey is planned and prepared for.

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...

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

By -

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...

IPad, Android Phones Versus Bible

By -
Image
Yesterday (on the day this was written), I watched Pastor Chris Oyakilome live as he preached. He used his iPad to read out scriptures. Later in the day, I saw a post on Instagram, and one guy like that insulted Pastor Chris for using iPad, instead of his Bible. I laughed at the man's ignorance. I remember an Uncle of mine was invited to a Church. He went there with his iPad, and someone asked him: "Sir, where is your Bible?” He showed him his 10.1 inches Pad. “But Sir,” he said, “This is not a Bible, this is iPad, you need to carry your Bible. You're not a good preacher, if you don't preach with your Bible," one of the pastors said. Now this is my point: Before the advent of printing press, the scriptures were originally written on a scroll! The ten commandments were written on a stone! Not on a Book called “Holy Book”. If the Book where the Bible was printed on becomes Holy Book, then my android phone is “Holy Android” because God’s word is inside it. Than...

There is something I want you to know. Aside the God Factor, you need Serious minded people around you to assist you in the journey – Success in Life. You can't do it alone, You need people. Ask Questions. Seek for Advice. That Idea; implement it! Hey, I'm not motivating you. Yes, I don't want to, but I want to challenge you (I'm talking to myself also). If the people around you are not serious, please, Change them. Don't quarrel with them oh, but switch please. Be Serious minded about what you do. Be focused.

Life will bring You the right people, just be You

By -
Image
Life has a way of bringing the right people into our lives without our effort. Put away your checklist or any other type of box that your mind has designed to fit people inside. Allow the intelligence of nature that provides you with air, sunshine and rain to do its job. Our job is to fix ourselves in solitude and to fill ourselves with love and self-respect. Your soul knows what it needs and when it comes along, energy will be the attraction. When the right person comes along, don't bring out your box because they will not fit your imaginary criteria. God will send you what you need to move you to the next level. Work on your inner eye and comfort your inner child while you wait for the one who will come to offer their love and who will desire nothing but your love. By: Uchenna Ilo

Some WORD Quotes

By -

I will share some quotes, credited to a friend of mine – Abraham Owunna. The Quotes: • Rest is a Divine Weapon given to you by God. The Enemy hates it because he wants you stressed and occupied always. • Beloved, The First Great Business of our lives is to be a Missionary at Home (Your neighborhood)... • We (You and I) might not be able to see everyone HE used us to touch their lives on earth... Some of them are on Social Media, Articles we have written, Music ministrations, Sermons, Our Behavior, etcetera.. But let us make every effort under Grace to see HIM (Jesus) who sent us.. • Some of us might have received the right Gospel but if our approach/response towards the Gospel we have received is Passive, we'll never be able to affect our Generation. • Not everyone will Understand your Journey, that's Okay. You're here to progress for a Divine Assignment, not to make everyone understand. By: Abraham Owunna

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...

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...
