TURNING YOUR TALENT TO TREASURE

It is amazing how so many pass through the earth without the slightest clue on what talents they are imbued with to fulfil their assignment on the Earth.. Some even take a step further , they find out what talents they have and they stopped.lent do the what good will a dormant and neglected talent do the owner? It is good to find one's talent but it is more important to train such talents and become very skillful with it. If you must turn your talent to treasure you will do more than develop those talents , you must deploy them or simply trade  them, but this must be done  at the right market otherwise you would have thrown your pearl before pigs! Some of the people  that i coach  ask me with a tone of resignation ' I can't find my talents '?  My simple advice  are these three self help methods. Find out what you find very interesting , What you find very interesting you will find easy to do.  So what is it that you find very easy to do and enjoying doing?

THE INTERNATIONAL DAY OF TEACHERS: 5TH OCTOBER

Given the various reports available, we have put together some data to explore how the job of a teacher varies around the world. Research  has now found that the education system in Finland offers the best value for money , with teachers achieving high Pisa scores, despite getting moderate salaries and teaching relatively large classes. Finland was ranked first, followed by Korea, the Czech Republic and Hungary, in terms of efficiency. Brazil and Indonesia’s education systems provided the least value for money, the study found. Where is teacher pay highest? Teachers in Switzerland get the highest annual salary, an average of $68,000 (£41,000). This is higher than the average salary in the country, which is around $50,000 (£30,000). Switzerland is followed by the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium in terms of having highly paid teachers. Comparatively, teachers in the UK earn less than the annual UK average of $44,000 (£27,000), receiving just over $40,000 (£24,000) and ranked 13

A CASE FOR CAUTION.

All indicators of the change agenda of the President Muhammadu Buhari  led administration points to the investigation, arrest and prosecution of corrupt individuals in the GEJ led administration.  However caution must be the watchword in doing this.  Let it not be a which hunt or a vendetta mission.  Plus We must tread carefully especially In treating the former President harshly and by all means we must avoid disgracing not to talk of sending him  to jail if allegations of impropriety in governance against him  is proved.  reason for caution will be the serious implication it may have on National peace and cohesion,  two :the implications for other African Nations where leaders have tendencies for sit 'sit tightism '. Any attempt to disgrace or jail GEJ send both positive and negative jitters across Africa.  Leaders must be given an assurance of soft landing as an incentive to give up power and avoid needless blood bath. The Burundi elections is set for tomorrow yet we h

Liberal Democracy at its apogee has become a scourge on America.

When Fela sang that Democracy is demonstration of craziness we all did not understand him.Today liberal democracy which I define as "the dictatorship of the majority of voters" has forced out the bible and prayer as a teacher led activity from schools in the USA not minding the voices and choice of millions who prefer it. It has forced legalized Nationwide same sex  marriage on the American people through the back door of the decision of five judges of the supreme court. What an affront to the rights of countless millions who do not want same sex and the clergyman who is not willing to join such in matrimony.? Now the kids right from fourth grade must learn all about gay sex, oral and anal sex plus transgender issues and all such nonsense with no right of refusal for parents. The danger here for Africa is our Education  investors  always want to copy anything American in total. The nonsensical thinking that says if iits American then it right . Whoever said that the USA is

How bad is poverty in Africa? The situation is improving, but Africa remains the poorest continent on Earth. But what many people may not know are the effects of poverty in Africa—including hunger, disease and a lack of basic necessities.   Poverty in Africa Facts   Seventy-five percent of the world’s poorest countries are located in Africa, including Zimbabwe, Liberia and Ethiopia. For the past two years, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Africa’s second largest country, has also been ranked the poorest in the world with a Gross Domestic Product (based on purchasing-power-parity) of $394.25 in 2013.According to Gallup World, in 2013, the 10 countries with the highest proportion of residents living in extreme poverty were all in sub-Saharan Africa. Extreme poverty is defined as living on $1.25 or less a day. In 2010, 414 million people were living in extreme poverty across sub-Saharan Africa. According to the World Bank, those living on $1.25-a-day accounted for 48.5 percent of th

The future of the classroom is without the teacher. That's reality!

The traditional classroom as we know it today is not likely to survive the next two decades. The educational system of the world is irreversibly going totally virtual. The book as we read today in hard copies is going to be almost  completely soft or digital. The Classroom of 2036 is completely online and without a physical instructor! The wise teacher who will survive and thrive will only be those who have developed personal content relevant and at the cutting edge of knowledge in his or her  field of competence.This he or she must deploy with proper copyright for profit in cyberspace

Let's rethink how we educate our youths.

Yes education is a number one tool for development. Proper education will even fast track development faster than a  democracy without good governance.                                       However we got it really wrong in Africa when we all left our traditional educational systems which was very practical and hands on. The fathers sang ise agbe ni se ile wa,, Eni ko sise ama jale. Iwe kiko laisi oko ati ada ko ipe o, ko ipe o. That song stressed the importance of acquiring profitable skills along side our paper certificates. We must rethink and rejig our educational system if millions of our graduate youths will not remain jobless and turn to crimes.

The end loading..... As foretold clearly that by the second coming of Jesus the Christ this whole world will be like Sodom and Gomorah. I used to think will that prophecy really come through hey here we are. The United States has become the 21st nation to legalise same sex marriage nationwide. The liberal Democracy of the West which is considered the best firm of human government will ultimately lead the world to its programmed end. Obama care is coming in with everyone in the US being implanted with micro chip in the next three years so tempting if u will be covered for ur health benefits. It's irreversible people one can only chose which side of the divide he or she will stand. Oyinbo, na wa for u ooooooo! U asked us to wear coat under hot sun, we did! U said we should speak ur language, we obediently dump ours! U asked us to tie a rope round our necks (tie) like goats, we obeyed! U said our ladies should wear dead people's hair instead of the natural ones God gave to t

The 9 Billion Booty& NASS in the face of Poverty in Nigeria.

Image
The reality of Nigeria today is that poverty thrives in the midst of greed and plenty. The countries that are at war have not suffered as much  casualties as Naija whose upper class and mainly politicians keep decimating the citizens through different means, hunger, preventable deaths, poor educational facilities and a near zero health infrastructure. Yet the NASS is taking a jumbo bite of 9 Billion Naira as wardrobe allowance out of the almost totally depleted national treasury. Who really needs a wardrobe, these politirickcians or the poor masses who live on less than  two dollars a day.?
