Nice Morning, Great News!!! Let me start with Kaduna State. The state governor Mallam El-Rufai has proposed for employment of about 25000 teachers as he clearly stated that about 67% of the state’s current teacher couldn’t pass conveniently primary four exams. How did they get the jobs in the first place? What criteria were used for the employment exercise? And there products will want to rule us? Next news my people! FG charges Discos to collect electricity debts from states amounting to N40bn Interesting, I have said it that the law makers are the law breakers. No wonder the party people, No! The electricity company would keep increasing their tariffs and also send crazy estimated bill to normal citizens so they can keep up in business. I hope the FG has paid theirs because even federal ministeries and others agencies don’t pay. My people, the rich keep getting richer and the poor are drained. Ekiti state o! The governor has told EFCC to charge the arrested accountant general an...

How many of us agree with this? Nigerian electorate has lost confidence in you – PDP tells APC The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has declared that it is no more news that the Nigerian electorate has lost confidence in the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC). Chairman, PDP Caretaker Committee in Oyo State, Hon. Tunde Akogun who made this revelation on Wednesday in Ibadan the state capital at the maiden meeting of his committee, declared that the chances of the party to win next general elections in the state are bright. Akogun noted that the function of the committee was to deliver the state to the PDP fold in 2019. He, however, warned members of the party against unapproved meeting. He said “It is no more news that the Nigerian electorate has lost confidence in the APC led Federal Government and if we observe the disenchantment caused by recent avoidable controversies in the state, the chances of a united and virile PDP to win subsequent elections in Oyo State is very bright...

The Value of 'Time' - I hope you have 'Time' to read this before it is too late....... Sometimes little things means SO much to certain people!! A young man learns what's most important in life from the guy next door. Over the phone, his mother told him, “Mr. Belser died last night. The funeral is Wednesday." Memories flashed through his mind like an old newsreel as he sat quietly remembering his childhood days. "Jack, did you hear me?" "Oh, sorry, Mom. Yes, I heard you. It's been so long since I thought of him. I'm sorry, but I honestly thought he died years ago," Jack said... "Well, he didn't forget you. Every time I saw him he'd ask how you were doing. He'd reminisce about the many days you spent over 'his side of the fence' as he put it," Mom told him. "I loved that old house he lived in," Jack said. "You know, Jack, after your father died, Mr. Belser stepped in to make ...

TWENTY-SIXTH SUNDAY OF THE YEAR (Ezek 18:25-28; Phil 2:1-11; Matt 21:28-32) This Sunday coincides with the 57th anniversary of the independence of Nigeria. On this day the church in Nigeria celebrates the feast of Our Lady Queen and Patroness of Nigeria and special readings have been chosen for the day. However, this reflection is on the readings of the 26th Sunday of the year, even though majority of the readers are in Nigeria and may hear different readings at mass. The Gospel reading of this Sunday features the first of the three parables told by Jesus, not in Galilee, but in Jerusalem. The three parables were addressed to the chief priests and the elders of the people (the religious leaders), and not to the crowd or to the disciples. The three parables are all about responding positively to God by our actions and not only by our words. In the first parable, Jesus gives us two examples. The first is that of the son who said to his father that he will not work but in the end went ahe...

A beautiful poem: The World is Mine Today, upon a bus, I saw a very beautiful woman, And wished I were as beautiful. When suddenly she rose to leave, I saw her hobble down the aisle. She had one leg and wore a crutch. But as she passed, she passed a smile. Oh, God, forgive me when I whine. I have two legs; the world is mine. I stopped to buy some candy, The lad who sold it had such charm, I talked with him, he seemed so glad, If I were late, it'd do no harm. And as I left, he said to me, "I thank you, you've been so kind. It's nice to talk with folks like you. You see," he said, "I'm blind." Oh, God, forgive me when I whine. I have two eyes; the world is mine. Later while walking down the street, I saw a child I knew. He stood and watched the others play, but he did not know what to do. I stopped a moment and then I said, "Why don't you join them dear?" He looked ahead without a word, I forgot, he couldn't hear. Oh, God, forgive me ...

Love... Love is not only in the words we say, it's in the things we do. It's not just in the morning smile that beautifies our faces, it's in the heart that's willing to give. Love is not in the fancy things of life we cherish, it's in the little things that don't matter. It's not in the kind gesture for a later reward, it's in the sacrifice we lay down for another. Love is not in the pleasure of a kiss, it's in the tolerance of character even when the lips become bitter. It's not in the beauty of a rose, it's in the perseverance to endure and stay after the rose dies. Love is not in the resurrection of old pain back to life, it's in the forgiveness of little wrongs and dead scars. It's not in the mockful judgement of another, it's in the heart that corrects without condemning. Love is not in a night of wine and sex, it's in the memories shared afterwards. It's not in the desire for immediate gratification, it...

1. Challenge your beliefs about what you can and can’t do. Maybe you are a good leader. 2. Challenge your ideas about how things should work. Sometimes when you decide how things should be you limit your ability to be effective in the world as it actually is. 3. Have a vision session. Write in a journal, create a video, sketch—anything that lets you explore what excites you most. 4. Look for opportunities in a tough situation. Avoid a victim mentality, and opt instead for a “ready for new beginnings” attitude. 5. Remove something from your life that doesn’t serve you to make room for something better and new. You never know what you might let in when you let something go. 6. Commit to something you always say you’ll do but always fail to start—and then take the first step right now. 7. Turn your focus from something don’t want to something you do want. This allows you to shift your energy from complaining to taking action. 8. Replace negative thoughts with positive ones. Positive energ...

3 Reasons Your Comfort Zone is Killing you (and How to Beat It) By Matt Valentine August 22, 2017 It’s killing you slowly. And it’s often untraceable. It’s your comfort zone — and stepping outside of it is key to discovering your passion, accomplishing your goals, and finding happiness. But it’s not so bad, right? I mean, you’re comfortable, so you must be happy? If only it worked out that way. Unfortunately, the longer you stay within your comfort zone, the less happy you tend to be. So, why do we stay within our comfort zone then? Because it takes energy to move something into action. That’s a simple fact of life. Science uses the word energy to describe the process in natural things, but when we talk about ourselves (humans), we usually just use the word motivation. Without the proper motivation, we’re willing to stay in a situation that doesn’t make us completely happy, for fear that the discomfort we’ll feel by stepping outside of our current circumstances will be greater than th...

Let Your Dreams Propel You through Valleys and Over Mountains By Claire Jones Each one of us has a light within that radiantly burns; it never goes out. Life’s challenges and inconsistencies may weigh you down, but let your dreams catapult you beyond all mental, physical, and psychological limitations — be merciless in your pursuit of self-actualization. Use untapped potential within to fire up your internal engines; shift all gears to go, blast through all impediments. Ignore the negative environmental noise, which threatens to consume. Focus.

Economist Tim Harford once said “ego is the enemy of innovation” when he was trying to explain that the world of success requires us to accept our mistakes and make corrections or even adapt so quickly. One reason why a lot of people do not achieve their desired success in life is the fear they have for failure. Sometimes, things take an entirely unexpected course that breaks all expectations and results in failure. Life is unpredictable and many times we keep wondering what we did wrong. In such situations, all our plans come to naught, and we are left depressed and most times, desperate. It is better to come to realize that failure is a feedback, and it is not the end. Though failure comes with the feelings of disappointment, rejection, embarrassment, and many other negative emotions, it is not a sin to fail. We should remember that failure has its advantages; if you fail, then you understand the approach which does not work, and you get the opportunity to try someth...

20 Important Relationship Goals You Actually Want I’m online all day, every day, and so I end up seeing a lot of the  #RelationshipGoals  memes  that float around social media. I’ve seen #RelationshipGoals that range from very cute to sickeningly exaggerated (most are the latter, to be honest). In the beginning, this relationship goals meme was  realistic  – pictures of happy couples holding hands while walking in the snow, cuddling and watching a movie together, or sleeping with an adorable puppy. But at this point, relationship goals have become  completely over-the-top.  From long,  dramatic declarations of love  on an Instagram picture to cuddling in positions that  seem extremely uncomfortable , some relationship goals make me want to  roll my eyes  until forever. At this point, it feels like those #RelationshipGoals pictures or actions that get all the likes and shares  aren’t even authentic ...

THE OTHER SIDE OF PETER TWENTY-SECOND SUNDAY OF THE YEAR In the Gospel of last Sunday we heard the wonderful declaration of Peter to Jesus: “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God”. In response, Jesus declared him blessed, because such declaration was divinely revealed. In addition, Jesus named him the rock upon which his church would be built. He promised to give him the keys of the kingdom of heaven, with the power to bind and loose. In the part read today, the same Peter, in his characteristic impulsiveness and impetuosity, tried to stand against the will of God in the life and mission of Jesus. He tried to dissuade Jesus from taking the path of the cross. This merited him a sharp rebuke from Jesus, in place of the beatitude he received last Sunday. The action of Peter today shows his other side, the human nature. It was to this other side that Jesus rebuked sternly: “Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me; for you are not on the side of God, but of human”. The human...

CHURCHES AND HOTELS just yester-night, i had a real thought about the connection of the two in my country. # they are the order of the day in my country: investment means # they run on daily basis as two parallel ideologies but yet chase one goal: winning peoples interest. # they house each other but yet think the world will be better if either of them is erased. # people existing in both don't like themselves. # they are meant for service but instead rip people off. # their major targets are the affluent in the society. # they preach charity but practice greed. # the both believe they are helping the society with creation of jobs but under pay workers. # the both constitute nuisance in the environment with their noise pollution. # the both condemn people even before knowing them. subscribe on our site @ www.guruarena.com.ng to learn more from us for free.

When I got this, it was simply too good for me alone to read and be blessed! It's a MUST read for self development! 1. Make friends with successful people and occasionally buy them gift and surprise them with lunch because successful people always give and hardly get, so when you give them, they value the gift a lot. 2. Get a mentor and follow his instructions and respect the relationship. Never beg your mentor for money or disrespect his or her privacy. 3. Make new positive friends as often as possible and ensure you keep the communication line open. Create a network of friends and not just connections. 5. Show kindness to everyone. Some small boys today will be big boys tomorrow. The biggest dog in the neighborhood was once a puppy. And keep the information/secret to yourself. 6. Always plan ahead and be proactive. He that plans the future work less in the future. 7. Listen to speeches and messages from great teachers. Both religious and educational. 8. Attend semin...

Some stress is good for us; it keeps us on our toes, allows us to think outside the box and come up with new, innovative ideas on occasion. However, a recent survey on work-related stress, anxiety and depression (the Labour Force Survey 2016) found that the number of days lost in 2016 due to stress-related issues was 11.7 million days, equating to 45% of all working days lost to ill-health. Let's look at four areas where there can be stress in the workplace. -  Stress and your work.  Do you feel that you understand what is expected of you, that you've been trained well enough? Perhaps you feel that your work is mundane, that your boss doesn't pass on the interesting or challenging tasks, preferring to keep them for him or herself. Those employees who have no responsibility or autonomy can become increasingly stressed, bored or frustrated. A lack of recognition and appreciation can also result in people feeling stressed. What can be done about it, are there ways to r...

1. Psychology says, friendship is not about who you spend the most time with, it’s about who you have the best time with. 2. Psychology says, Intelligent people tend to care less about the opinions of others, they also enjoy being alone because of great sense of self. 3. Psychology says, People who regularly help others are significantly happier and less likely to become depressed as they get older. 4. Psychology says, ironically, the more you hide your feelings, the more they show. The more you deny them, the more they grow. 5. Psychology says, A true friend who understands your troubles is far more valuable than a hundred friends who only show up for your smiles. 6. Psychology says, Bad relationships change good people. 7. Psychology says, that sometimes you love someone so much that not even the truth can change your mind.

When young, most of the people are only interested in how a person looks and how he/she makes them look when in public places. When they get older and looking for life partners, many people look for other qualities other looks. If you are at that stage where you feel that you are ready to settle down, here are the qualities that you should look out for in a partner: Shared interests According to relationship experts, having common interests strengthens a relationship. The common interests can be as simple as having a fondness for certain types of food or as advanced as completing a complex puzzle. When you have common interests with your partner you will have something to talk about. This brings you closer thus you live with your partner for a long time without getting bored. When looking for a partner, you shouldn't look for one that shares all of your interests. One common interest is enough to bring you close thus have a beautiful, long term relationship. Respect It...

It will take just 60 seconds to read this and change your thinking.. Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room. One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to help drain the fluid from his lungs. His bed was next to the room's only window. The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back. The men talked for hours on end. They spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, their involvement in the military service, where they had been on vacation.. Every afternoon, when the man in the bed by the window could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window. The man in the other bed began to live for those one hour periods where his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and color of the world outside. The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake.Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats...
