My 21st Century: A Century Producing babes instead of Leaders by Ogunnubi Oluwasoga Daniel

Image
Who would lend me ears? Who will listen to my Lamentation? The 18th century produced researchers The 19th century produced Gurus The 20th century produced Writers I smell our century producing BABIES My 21st century where many have Handset but few have mindset My 21st Century where many prefer side talk to “mind talk” My 21st century where many stream but few Dream My 21st century culture ruptures but pictures are nurtured My 21st century where many pings but few think When will we realize? Our Fathers had a remarkable century Our fathers were Ingenious What will the next century say about us? “No more Einstein?”   “No more Aristotle? Who will wake us up?Can’t we see; we will stumble! Let’s all wake up and work up to set about a new record setting apart distractions and setting up a PROMINENT CENTURY. Why not drop the flop and shop for the top! Let's stop being the babies we are and start metamorphosing the Leader we are meant to be.

FEMALES ARE NOT WEAKER ASSET By Faola Omolara

Gender equality is like a log being tried to balance on a pin - the best description of how our society treats ladies compare to men. Gender equality appears as battle with no 'very soon' possibility of winning. It makes me sad when I hear the female being referred to as 'the endangered specie'. Our society taught us that men are stronger, wiser and helpful, not because of any obvious reason(s) but because of beliefs like women are too emotional and less rational. And the same society has forgotten that the reason why a man is less emotional is because he  was made to believe such. As a man, he shouldn’t cry and show emotions, he is expected to carry all the weight and forge ahead like nothing is happening, and this does nothing but build up frustration in a man, because, piling up issues doesn’t help. At the end of the day, the women are more emotional because they let their feelings out the moment they get them. Should we go down to gender difference? A woman go...

Things that can not be taught

Image
It is funny that I can not stop laughing at myself for the ning-nong idiosycrasy I participate in. There are things we try to learn and others we strive to unlearn. Moreover, in spite of our failure, we continue fighting this losing battle. Let me ask you the following questions, be sincere with your answers: 1) Who taught you how to be happy? 2) What is his name, who told you when to be sad? 3) Can you remember her face, who told you there is nothing pleasurable as being in love; killing like being betrayed and ditched? 4) Do you remember their address, those who taught you how to cry? 5) Who his teacher was, he who taught you good and bad? Doubt anyone can have an answer except 'NO' to any of the above questions. None of these were learned: Happiness, Sorrow, Sadness, Love, Passion, Hatred and Desire - why try to unlearn what you did not learn - trying to fix what was not spoilt. They are innate! Everything is in you, like the application on your phone; you do ...

MY PERIL

It is with great concern for myself and others in same peril that I write this. I have always wonder WHY and WHEN all these so-called education pursuance will be belayed. We learn everyday. It however occurred to me, it is something nobody can stop except the life in us. Meaning if you want to stop learning, you have to die! After tertiary education, 'What Next?' Is the most echoed question from most of my classmates we graduated together. A thought popped up in my mind, 'when shall this end'. Everytime you see people rejoicing for the completion of a stage task, they are always worried about the future afterward. Right from when we were young, although we were less concerned about our promotion then in our Nursery classes, our parents were worried. We caught the flu when we finished our Primary education. Now the worry of passing Secondary (high) school entrance examination. It does not stopped there, we finished secondary (high) school education and the ghost retu...

TIPS FOR SUCCESSFUL JOB INTERVIEW

I attended this seminar last year. And I will like to share my jotting in one of the sections. It was a jotting from the section on ''How to ACE your interview''. Surprisingly, it was delivered by a baker-a baker in a well tailored suit-knew bakers only in their apron (just joking anyway) and he titled it ''Tips for a successful job interview'' . FROM MY JOTTING: Job interview is not necessarily about sitting on the 'hot seat' seeking for a job. It can happen anywhere, anytime. Job changes but interview never change. All jobs interviews are the same. TIPS FOR A SUCCESSFUL JOB INTERVIEW ==> First Impression Count: - Greet your interviewer with a smile.  - Give eye contact. - Sell yourself before anything else. Appear bold  and confident but not arrogant. ==> Go in prepared: - Take time to prepare.   - Re-read your CV and the job advert before the interview.   - Do your research thoroughly: check what the company deals in; you can ...
