This Is Why You Should Give Out Knowledge

  THIS IS WHY YOU SHOULD GIVE OUT KNOWLEDGE Written By Ikedi Jedice  Some posts ago, I mentioned how one should have superior knowledge, but what gain is that knowledge of you don't apply, monetize it or share it to the world. Sometimes I see people hoard knowledge, BUT WHY? My mentor, Sir Heaven Umunna said something and I paraphrase "there are books that your mentors won't give you access to easily but my concern is not about the book but the fact that it was someone who wrote that book" So while you feel like that special book  in your library is for you alone and won't be shared, you must also remind yourself that if the author of that book thought like that, that book won't be in your library. There is a place for not "throwing pearls before swine, lest they trample on it" (I speak in proverbs) But I want us to imagine a scenario. Scripture tells us that one time in Jesus life, He asked questions in the temple. Now imagine if those teachers hoar...

Are You Entitled To Those Things People Give To You For Free?

Image
  "ARE YOU REALLY ENTITLED TO THOSE THINGS PEOPLE GIVE TO YOU FOR FREE?" Written By Joseph Adeleke,  Your Personal Development Coach There is this feeling of entitlement we all have. We feel some people in our lives should do this or that for us because it is important for them to do it for us. We feel we deserve better from them and if we don't get those things, we feel so bad about it and feel those people are terrible. I had that feeling of entitlement towards my father for a long time that I felt it was his duty to take care of my every need. I needed him to attend to every need I presented at his table. It was many years later I listened to a message by Apostle Joshua Selman Nimmak that changed my thinking. According to Apostle Joshua Selman, if you get things from your parents when you are 18 and above, you are lucky. At that age you should start thinking of what you can do for yourself and reduce the expectations you have from them. So many years ago I was in a rel...

Ideas And Concept!

  IDEAS AND CONCEPT! Written By Wisdom Alexander, Writer/Trainer. One thing that sells much faster than anything else in this technology-driven society is ideas and concept! You cannot underestimate the importance of building a concept for that particular business idea you have at the moment. Let me give you a simple biblical illustration to drive home this point: God gave Adam the privilege of naming the various animals that was ever created on the earth. Undoubtedly, the original idea for creating those animals was actually from God.  But God appointed Adam to build a concept for that creative idea by calling those animals by a specific name that everyone can relate with. And whatever Adam calls those animals was what they automatically represented in the eyes of society! Every successful company or individual have a name coined in specific words or languages by which they're called and known for. In otherwords, these companies or individuals have successfully designed a con...

Learning Is Very Important

  LEARNING IS VERY IMPORTANT  Written By Mercy Andrew No, it does not as far as what you gain will improve you. When I began my content writing classes, I kept following my coach's updates. They were all excellent, challenging and encouraging. But the one that captured my mind most was, she posted about a 15-year-old boy who has and is still doing well in the writing field. I then wondered why my coach is looking up to this small boy and wanting to get to his position and even more. Is this not surprising? Imagine your teacher/ lecturer wanting to be like a 15-year-old boy in his field or career. Now, it is a clash of your field and age. You are neither gonna drop your age and go after the younger person that has more than you have  Or, you will keep your age glue to pride and ego and remain the way you are. If the 15, 16, 20...year old boy/girl from your field knows and understand it better than you do, it is never a crime to go learn under them. Gone are the days where ...

 THE UNWRITTEN RULE OF SALES  Written By Faith Ezennaya The Sales Queen There is a shop near where I live, I usually go there to buy stuffs. They sell different things in the shop and the shop is managed by a man and his wife. One day, I got to the shop and noticed they have started selling table fan...one of the fans was really beautiful that it caught my eyes and I picked interest in buying the fan cos I already had plans of buying a table fan I can place on my reading table. I went closer to where the fan was placed, held it and asked of the price.  It was the wife that was selling that day, so she told me the price of the Fan.  The price seemed high to me, but I still wanted that particular fan...but within me I was hesitating to make payment for the fan cos I was skeptical about the durability of the fan i.e whether it will last, whether it will serve me well. I asked the woman If the Fan is durable, she gave me assurance that its durability and of quality...but...
