The matter of purpose for living is a sensitive matter that must be handled with much wisdom, planning and understanding. It is said, When the purpose of a thing is not known, abuse is inevitable; which connotes the indispensability of the knowledge of purpose for living for everyone. Having realized that everyone must be aware of his or her purpose for living; we must also know that there is a huge difference between knowing one’s purpose and doing (pursuing or fulfilling) one’s purpose. While anyone who knows his or her purpose for living and also do it; could be described…

Depression is a compound word that marries devil with pressing. Whenever anyone is pressed by the devil; such a man or woman is depressed. From another angle, we could conclude that depression is a state of being pressured by the devil. Pressure could produce patience, toughness, and focus from anyone who handles it well; however, when a man is being pressured by the devil, over any matter, thought or decision; such a person is being de-pressed! A man is not a failure when he fails – for failure is a personality or character or attitude; while fail is an event…

The population of the world today is over 7 billion people – over 7 billion thoughts per second; over 7 billion ideas; over 7 billion plans and pursuits per second and over 7 billion devotions. Ordinarily, that statistics connotes a competitive world – a world where we almost compete for access to peace, water, oxygen and comfort. It is more than a fact that the inherent desire of everyone is to attain to comfort, abundance, peace, security and space. Incidentally, the whole world does not guarantee all that, leading to pressure on the available space, security and satisfaction. Sometime ago…

A blog host is the company that provides the space on their servers and equipment to store your blog. Typically, a fee is required to store your blog on a blog host’s server. Blogging hosts can provide a variety of ancillary services, and some blog hosts provide blogging software as well. A blog (a truncation of the expression weblog) is a discussion or informational site published on the World Wide Web consisting of discrete entries (“posts”) typically displayed in reverse chronological order (the most recent post appears first). Until 2009, blogs were usually the work of a single individual, occasionally of…

This constitution is the Grand norm of any group, association, organization, society or nation. Every other law stands or falls by it. And if I may take it further, I would state very strongly that the constitution is the binding force of the various constituents of a corporate entity. An entity in reality is as strong as its constituents and the legal document that binds every entity is what I call the Constitution. From the colonial era to the post-colonial era, Nigeria has never lacked constitution of some sort. However, the “legitimacy of most of the constitutions could become a…

The world is a fast-pace entity and the events in the world unfold so fast that there is a huge possibility for us to loose touch with our resolutions and decisions. It is not difficult in our world to start some great projects; initiate some fantastic projects and start some ventures of some sort. That is, our societies are not lacking in start-ups; but finishers or developers. While I admire the tenacity, audacity and the passion required to start any great venture, adventure or cause; I also believe that start many things without completing or perfecting them is almost as…

The mystery of human behaviour has been a drive for many sociological and psychological researches across the world. There is a sternly desire in us as a people to know why people do what they do; behave the way they do; and make the choices they make. Adolf Hitler was a unique man on the landscape of time and history. He was ferocious in his impact and audacious in his ambition. He drove his plan so far that he almost destroyed a race and a generation of a people. Mother Theresa is another unique woman on the landscape of history.…

The world is said to be the exerted influence on the earth: For while the earth is a territory (comprising of the sea, land and air); the world is the governing influence over the sea, land and air. In the beginning, God created the earth and formed man to man (exert influence) on the created earth. It then suggests that the world was originally composed of the man (Adam) and the woman (Eve). At that time, man (Adam, with his wife Eve) was in charge of the daily affairs of the earth. Man was the ruler of the earth. However,…

The secret yearning of the heart of many people across the world is to make maximum impart on earth while life remains; yet, the most difficult thing for anyone on earth is making the best use of time, money, talent, intellect, relationships and opportunities. This paradox of life indeed calls for an examination and a cross-examination of our plans, purpose and pursuits as we deploy ourselves and our resources in the pursuits of our goals and objectives in life. The population of the world is over 7 billion; meaning that there is a very strong competition for space, talent, opportunities and…
