THE TICKING OF A CLOCK, THE WHINE OF AN ALARM, THE CALENDER ON THE WALL

-

I wrote this few years back and I stumbled upon it recently.  I thought I should share it with YOU. 

Time is the change in minutes, hours, days etc. Time waits for no one regardless of your political status, financial status, economic status, name it. No one is rich enough to purchase time. Once it is wasted, it takes determination and grace to recover. Usually, this happens in very rare cases and situations. It is therefore better to prevent wastage of time.

  Time should be spent wisely; you should optimize how you spend your time in order to extract the best possible result in a short period of time. In accomplishing this, you have a price to pay. This price requires you learning how to manage and utilize your time effectively.


 Nobody has extra hours to himself, we all have 24hours daily. What make your hour meaningful are the extra strength, pursuit and determination you have given. It is the extra works you have done, extra miles you have gone and extra steps you have taken. You are expected to value your time and adopt a system of time management. 

Schedule your activities and remember always that no system of time management will make a difference until you make a difference and address properly, the issue of self-discipline. You should have a meaningful purpose for your life, this should enable you have an efficient time management skill. You should engage yourself in something productive. 

 Time management lures you into greater productivity, more free time and higher self-esteem. Managing your time involves you deciding on what you want to do and doing it at the appropriate time and eliminating procrastination.

Time is precious, it waits for no one, it cannot be bought and it requires maximum management. It is the ticking of a clock, the whine of an alarm and the calendar on the wall. Time is a respecter of nobody.

The Menace of Corporate begging in Lagos

-

 By Praise Olowe Just when I thought the issue of corporate begging had seized in Lagos, some of my recent encounters within the Lagos metropolis has got me re thinking. Corporate beggars seem to be back in town and this time around, they are back in re branded styles. Street begging is not new in Nigeria, and it majorly involves visibly disadvantaged people, who line major roads to beg for money. You would agree with me that, seeing a good looking man who is all dressed up in tuxedo, carrying a fancy brief case and wearing a pair of shoe so well polished that you can almost see your reflection in them on the street of Lagos is not at all a concern. However, it becomes one when this corporately dressed man, walks up to a lady not to make advances, but to seek assistance backing it up with a really pathetic story. This was my experience a few days ago, at the Oshodi area of Lagos. This handsome looking guy, walked up to me and said: (not the exact words used) "
