Three elements are essential to the achievement  of success in life and they are: your location, your association and the information you get. If these three factors are not properly in place, you will find the success ladder a difficult task. The focus of this write up is on association. You may need to ask yourself, why you attend that function you attend or why you are with the people you associate with. Redefining your association is a great step to achieving success. Any friendship or association that does not add value to you, will only devalue you. *"We may not be able to determine those around us but we can choose those we wish to be around."* Richie Dayo Johnson We become greater by association. Connecting with others and building mutually beneficial relationships will leverage your efforts to realise your full potential. But be careful who you take advice from. Listen to people who have actually done something, not someone who just talks about doing it. ...

You are not having an affair yet it seem like you are. You have being faithful to her, since you responded “I do” on the altar on that beautiful wedding day, yet she doubts your allegiance to her. So why would you blame your partner for her sarcasm and suspicion. Yes some women would not fight or shout at you but their sarcastic reaction to your expressions will poke you dearly into your marrows. Who says she is right. None. I am only bothered about how that secrecy about your financial achievement or loss affects...

If only parents can use their words to bring reconciliation and re-connection to their children rather than condemnation. Condemnation will only make this child withdraw. However, when a child withdraws into himself too often then it might be difficult to bring them back. Many children who have being emotionally and psychologically abused by friends, family's, teachers, parents and so on, have become depressed and victim of circumstance at one point or the other in life. Some parents in their rage have frustrated the creativity, talents, career, and self esteem of their children. Some are even confused on how words can work on a child instead of incessant beating. Beating or scolding a child at some point for correction might be okay but incessant beating of the child might just cause more emotional damage. There is therefore a need for a balance in the way we scold, rebuke and spanked our wards. Every parent needs to be conscious of the mode of correction used on the ch...

* Your Child and his Hero* Some time ago, I was privileged to be a discussant among a group of children. We were discussing “who is your hero?” Each child was expected to respond as the baton got to him. In response some said, "Jesus Christ", a few said "my Dad", "my Mum". Surprising, from the rare, one said "my hero is my sister" and just then came this shocking response "my hero is Chris Brown". Now at this point, one of the children turned towards him in great bewilderment and asked him; why is Chris Brown your hero? Then he asked him "why is Chris Brown your Hero" and the confident boy innocently responded, "I just like him because he is successful". I marveled but kept calm about his response as I allowed the question to go round the group. This story brings us to the question, who is your child's hero? You really need to know! Children learn through imitation and whoever a child li...

TEACH YOUR CHILD TIME MANAGEMENT   “A man who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life.”  ―  Charles Darwin T he consciousness of time and how to manage it has posed a threat to many individuals, parents, and corporate bodies as well. In Africa for instance, we often make reference to the term "African time" in a bid to attend some public functions later than the stipulated time. However, this notion of African time has taken a negative turn on our nature and attitude.  M any feel no remorse about their inability to be punctual; instead they blame it on several factors such as, economy, traffic, children, weather etc.  In the same vein, some event planners encourage the "African time" syndrome hence the audiences are accustomed to arriving late, due to the mindset that the programme will start late. Unfortunately, the consciousness of availability of time has influenced indiscipline in the society at large. H ...

The Nigerian Politics: Our Youths and the Prisons Thursday, 20th of July was not like any other day for me, even though the cloud was still in place yet some events made the day like many days in one. I was privileged to visit the Lagos Female Prison and the Medium Male Prison, each for 20 minutes. The purpose of my visit was to complete an official task.  However, in the process of carrying out my duty, I saw some young and old ladies of different complexion and heights, different tribes and status, all dressed in their casuals, as though they were in their respective homes, yet they were confined in the Female Prison. My heart was burdened with their welfare as well as whether these young women still had aspirations or not. Soon my time was up and it was time to leave.  Those few minutes meant so much to me as I traveled far in my mind; I looked beyond the reasons for which they were detained to, what would life have been for them, if they were not confi...
