Better Or Worse? Nigeria @54
"Arise, O compatriots, Nigeria's call obey
To serve our fathers' land
With love and strength and faith
The labor of our heroes past
Shall never be in vain
To serve with heart and might
One nation bound in freedom, peace and
unity.
Oh God of creation, direct our noble cause
Guide our leaders right
Help our youth the truth to know
In love and honesty to grow
And living just and true
Great lofty heights attain
To build a nation where peace and justice
shall reign."
Today Nigeria celebrates her 54th year of being an independent nation. Virtually everyday we either sing or hear the piercing tune of the national anthem. 54 years ain't 54 days, we've come a long way, yes, but the big question is "How Far?" Are we at our 'Promise land? The wilderness? Have we really left Egypt? Today let us take a review of where we are, were, and the marginal distance to where we want to be.
Our heroes past fought a war we need not fight again. The greatest gift they gave us. The gift of freedom we literally have at our disposal. Are we fighting a war for or against ourselves? Let us evaluate our selves thus far to know if we are indeed progressing or the opposite.
Let us use this subheadings as a diopter to decipher where the pointer is directing us to. Please share your views.
1.Politics
2.Education
3.Health sector
4.Power sector
5.Job creation
6.Sustainable developments
7.Religion
8.Tribal unity
9.Sports
10.Technology
With all these let us evaluate where we used to be and where we are currently and decide what we need to do for the betterment of our great nation Nigeria.
I'm of the strong view that we have left Egypt but we are like some hours away. We have a long way to go in the above sectors but it all boils down to leaderships. If we are fighting a war amongst ourselves then we are on a mission of no destination and no return. United will stand divided always falls. Let us be united in mind and purpose irrespective of ethnicity. Let us fight one course of living free with the freedom given to us, let us make Nigeria a better place for us and our future generation. Let the labours of our heroes past not be in vain.
Nigeria "Great People Great Nation"!!!.

The 'YOU' In You
In my previous article I dealt with self discovery part 1'.
Today in lieu to my recent teachings I'm gonna be sharing another article that I have after many research come up with. It explains the reason for the under performance of many. It points out my "YOU" method of tackling such problems.
The YOU' in you. Nobody is born incapable of success nor with a mark of underachievement nor with boundaries of limitations. but one thing is for sure 'Nobody is born devoid nor of replete knowledge, but of untapped Potentials." They say talent is endowed but perfection is worked for. "The difference between two individuals is the amount of knowledge and responsibility they shoulder." That is why it seems like some people have more of all it takes than others, that's why some people seem more successful and others categorized as spectators.
My perspective of the world has been enlightened after having almost gorge knowledge of how the 'bio' system operates. this i have recapitulated in three letters, " The Genexcel's 'YOU' of achieving".
Y- Yearn for Knowledge :"He who knows not and knows he knows not and does not want to know is? you know what. Buts he afters the knowledge of his "Not knowing" yearns to know to such is accorded wisdom. like i stated earlier 'Nobody is borne with an ample knowledge of 'all'. It is either you know it or you don't. You must yearn to know to the point of wanting to know even when it is apparent that you have known
Appostle Paul in the Bible made a statement that keeps me awed. He said after all the miracles and wonders he had wrought with the omnipotent and omniscient knowledge of Christ. "That I may know you" the question you will begin to ask yourself is "what else is there to know?". but I tell you there is no such thing as full knowledge. when you think you've got it all friend, please watch your steps because the phobia of heights 'Pride' has stepped in. by the way what do you think you've known? if people like the Wright brothers, Millikan, Babbage, Bill Gates, Ford. and the rest had stopped at the junction of "I've Known It All" You think the world would have been where it is today? There is always a vacuum in everybody's life that yearns to be filled. there is always an urge to go beyond, don't shut it up.
This takes us to the next step.
U - Outstretch Your Mind to accommodate Changes. The mind is the CPU' of the body's activities. Failure and Success starts from the mind. "The State of the Mind Determines the State and Performance of the Body. The Big question is what has your mind been outstretched to accommodate, failure or success, good or bad, sickness or health, greatness or underachievement? that is a question for you to answer.
Most people are underachievers today just because they pity the mind. why should you? Do you know how much the mind can house? Do you know how much potentials you possess? Do you actually know what you carry?.
"There is more on the inside than it appears on the outside" that you were born naked does not mean you were born empty. Stretch that mind, think far beyond your age in the positive line. think motivational, big, dream big dreams. Impossible is nothing if only you can Hurd past the IM's, the I, me and myself. people who want to do the impossible are selfless, they think beyond themselves. It is only when you hurdle past the 'IM' that you get to Possibility. Don't you think below think Big.
I hope you've been enjoying your reading. If you've gotten to this point you are wise and I know you can make it. by reading this alone you have passed the "Y" Test in the "YOU" in you. now the rest I'm sure you will. Just persevere a little longer you will get there, Life's battle is not for those with a vegetable heart or with a losers mentality. Don't withdraw your hands from the plough, You too Can.
Now this takes us to the last but not the least in my discussion today.
U - Uncover Purpose : This is for me the less difficult stage. I call it the 'Rest Stage' because in this stage you live your dreams. you are living with the knowledge you garner. Your life here is more like a programmed database. You are not living an ambitious but purposeful life. Lines fall unto you in pleasant places when you Uncover and walk in purpose, It is like walking an already treaded path. you know what you want and where you are going to. Even though life may at some points seem to waver but the storm will not carry you off course. Life may not turn out to be all so rosy but I guarantee you a glorious end only if you stay focused and on purpose because that is all that matters.
Hold on, don't you let go. Ambitions are self given but Purpose is divine. Ambitions can destroy, it can fade. ambitious people are never remembered. but Purpose is inspired, it can Not be taken from you. there is always a way where there is purpose. Purposeful People leave their footprints in the sands of time. I know you can, Believe in yourself. See that which others do no see. Uncover Purpose. "Life Is A Choice".

Self Discovery Part 1
As i sat pondering over some issues of great concern faced with a lot of people in our society today I felt the urge to share this facts that you may no have known.Read More...
IDENTITY: everybody is at one point or the other fronted by the perturbing question of self identity "Who Am I?" as difficult it may seem there lies answers we search for within the coves of the mind.
Sometimes we all try to fix a square shape in a round hole, which results to the tarnishing of the original. this is what our lives look like when we live out of purpose for lack of knowledge of who we are which helps us in gearing our minds to what we are supposed to be doing. The reason why our society today is in a mess is solely because some people are not where they are meant to be because people people who are meant to be there have not discovered themselves
thus creating an imbalance in the pre ordered sequence of the ecosystem
EXPRESSION: expression is the only language that can be understood by different tongues. we've dealt with IDENTITY now let's look at a more challenging situation. I was privileged to be at an occasion. I saw all the contestants, yes it was a talent hunt, they all did well, but I was asking myself "is this the best out there? " if the person who won hadn't been a part someone also would have won, if someone better had shown up the person who took the first position would not have been the best.
vacuums are created to be filled, and it can only be filled via self identity and expression. Will you be the one who stands behind the scenero and watch things happen. or the one who goes all out to make things happen? The answer is yours to give. "Life Is A Choice"
