THE IRONY OF MONEY

Money answereth almost all earthly things. Money speaks and speaks louder. Money gives One an esteemed identity. But there comes a time in a man's life when the power of Money will certainly fail; when Money will be called upon, but it cannot answer. Do not be deceived by their flashy luxuries and ostentatious lifestyle. They won't tell you the depths of their daily agony, they won't show you their tears and groans of regret. Wealth from get-rich-quick schemes quickly disappears; wealth from hard work grows over time.

THE CONTENT VS THE CONTAINER

No matter how nice a CONTAINER appears, it can only attract customers. The capacity to retain customers lies in the CONTENT.
A nicely appearance without desired cum acceptable virtues, depreciates value.
Hitherto, the worth of a human is measured in regards to his inward capabilities, not his physical standard.
Remember, only insane persons desire "kom-kom" (container) and disregards the content.
Your buildups (inward accumulations) uplifts you to more greater heights than your makeups (bodily beautifications).
Decide to spice-up your content today; explore your abilities and talents, learn new things, become skillful, soar beyond your course of study, rise above your occupational sphere, BECOME SUCCESSFUL.

WASSCE ENGLISH LANGUAGE FIRST QUESTIONS

I remember sitting in that tense-filled examination hall years ago. The first questions on the WASSCE English Language question paper were to write either letters or essays of not less than 450 words. I spent couple of minutes thinking on how to make up to 450 words in writing an informal letter, I thought it as hard task. After the wasted minutes of gazing at the question, I decided to start moving my pen on answer sheet. Few minutes later

THE GREATEST VIRTUE THAT MAKES A MAN HONOURABLE

Majority of the human populace believe it’s money (wealth), other minority opt for academic qualification, talent, beauty, institutional position, et cetera.

All these attract honour, but at intensive bios logos, we discover that the honours brought about by the aforementioned virtues are just crumbs compared to the honour brought about by the virtue of INTEGRITY. A man of integrity will always stand tall amidst every other caliber of human.

Majority of the rich today, sold their integrity to acquire wealth, presuming that integrity has the same value as

THE FIRST RUNNER-UP POWERFUL ENTITIES OF THE UNIVERSE

It is agreeable and obvious that BOOKS are the more powerful entities of the universe. GOD is the most powerful.

The influencing power of books can never be overemphasized.

God Himself wrote His own book(Exo. 34:1) to guide His people before He sent His son. Surprisingly, that same God's book is the backbone behind the Jews' blunt disbelief in the Son of God. 

Books can establish religions, raise empires, coronate kings, chisel mindsets, build professionals, forge and refine the heart of men.
Biblically, books will determine

SAY NO TO OPPRESSION

Never oppress the poor(deficient in a specified
way).
Never take away his possession forcefully because
he's impoverished and you're affluent.
Never starve her because she's an orphan.
Never scorn her because you look more pretty than
her.
Never use your richdoms to trigger dysphorias in
the life of others.
Help them in any way you can. They might be the
ones to help you in times ahead.

JOHN VON NEUMANN

JOHN VON NEUMANN

Born: 28 December 1903 in Budapest, Hungary.
Died: 8 February 1957 in Washington DC., U.S.A.

      Every high school or college student of sciences, probably might have come across the above mentioned name. John Von Neumann was unquestionably a genius. As a child, Von Neumann showed he had an incredible memory. At the age of 6, he could tell jokes in classical Greek and could divide two 8-digit numbers in his head. By the age of 8, he was familiar with differential and integral calculus. He could recite books he had read years earlier word for word. He could read a page of the phone directory and then recite it backwards. On one occasion, it took Von Neumann only 6minutes to solve a problem in his head that another Professor had spent hours on using a mechanical calculator.
He published a definition on ordinal numbers when he was 20, the definition is the one used today. He received his Ph.D. in Mathematics when he was 22years of age and his doctorate in mathematics at age 23.
Von Neumann is perhaps most famous as the man who worked out the complicated method needed to detonate an atomic bomb.

LITE TRUTHS FROM THE INSIGNIFICANT

Couple of days ago, I saw this fascinating snake-like lizard(glass lizard). Its look were a bit scary but attractive as well. Its movement pattern caught my attention for some minutes, I admired this little reptile. This admiration led me to a consequential researchh on Lizards. Through the research, I was able to make deductions of three life truths that can be learnt from the behavioural features of  Lizard. These three lessons made me understand the reason behind the Bible's remark of the Lizard as a 'little but exceedingly wise' creature.(Proverbs 30:28).

Lesson 1: ECDYSIS
     All lizards grow continuously throughout their lives, however their skin does not grow to accommodate their changing size. It is for this reason that they must shed their skin regularly to allow proper growth.
     This depicts their thirst to keep growing at all cost. Like the lizard, we have to outgrow

FIGHT AGAINST 'HUMAN INERTIA'

     "Inertia - a tendency to do nothing or to remain unchanged".

     At some times in our lives, we feel contented and unconcerned about the present state of life, thinking that could be all we are capable of achieving. but deep down our hearts, we know we've not yet attained the life of our dream and the purpose of God for us. We conclude there is nothing else we can do to make positive changes. This depicts "HUMAN INERTIA".
     Life is not designed to reward inertia. Lack of drive is the problem of many people today, not the absence of opportunities. People are loosing their sense of accomplishment, purpose and most of all

WHAT A SMALL WORLD...?

     They both boarded the same commercial bus, going from Onitsha to Asaba in Nigeria. Jane the younger lady was going for a job interview. As a First-class Bsc. graduate in Petroleum Engineering, she has been invited for a job opportunity worth paying 330,000 Naira per month if granted.
She was looking gorgeous on her neatly ironed semi-long white skirt and blue shirt. Mrs. Chinyere, the older lady in the same bus, was reporting to work.
Jane was already seated when Mrs. Chinyere was about to

IF I PERISH, I PERISH

      This is a language spoken and understood only by men with Lion’s heart. These are men who have sealed their hearts with courage and had drunken from the cup of fearlessness. Conquering warriors know how to speak these words and understands its true meaning. This is the language that helps them conquer wars. It fills their hearts with rivers of faith and boldness, giving them de-magnifying eyes which makes them see mountains as plains.

THE GOLDEN RULE; THE GIVING RULE

"Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom." - Luke 6:38

"While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest,… shall not cease." - Genesis 8:22

"Give, even if you only have a little." - Buddha 
Not just only the Bible propounded this rule, the Quran and other religious books forwarded this same rule, which solidifies the authenticity and workability of this rule. With all these back-ups, it can be vividly deduced that it is a natural rule guiding the earth. It’s a golden rule, it’s the secret of

LIVING A BIG LIFE, THE BEST LIFE

    Ninety-nine percent of humans on earth possess an aspiration that settles at the back of their minds. This is the aspiration to live a BIG life. This becomes the prevailing driving force of every human, no matter the class. Even the beggars, the poor and the disabled possess this aspiration, that’s why they strive to survive and keep wishing for a better life on earth.

THE ONLY MAN THAT CAN STOP YOU

  

     We live in a world where excuses are uncountable as sands. Diverse life events take place at some certain points of our lives. These events might gear our lives towards positive expectations or negative mishaps. When the negative-resulting events occur, it draws one back in life’s journey, denying one what he/she should have gained. These negative occurrences may be as a result of

THE FUTRE IS FOR SALE, BUY IT NOW!

     This man at age 52, was soaked with the showers of pains, the days were as dark as nights to him. Realizing he had become a failure and tired of this world, he was about to commit a suicide act before I met him. After successfully taking the gun away from him and saying some initial words to calm him down, I asked to know the situations and happenings that could have led him into a condition like this. He made a lengthy narration of his pitiful life journey and how he ended up in shambles. At his conclusion, he made a statement that caught my utmost attention
