SAFETY LAST _AGHARA JOHN PAUL


Through the years, our minds, our society, workplace, school system and almost every organization has made us believe and accept that “Safety First” is the motto of humanity. But safety first has done a great harm than good to the human mind that is longing for transformation. 
Safety first has hindered governmental development, industrial growth and the exploits of God’s creature. Safety first puts a wall of limitation/barrier before the eyes of your mind that you dare not delve into the oceans of deep waters where the big play takes place. It grows fears of failure inside of you that ultimately hinders you from trying out new ideas and concepts that will result to greater achievements. Safety first appears in the form of your family and friends stopping you from pursuing a path because it had never been done before. This virus has killed many dreams that would have made our society a lot better. 

But today, Let me shock you by telling you that Safety First has never been the motto of dreamers or success driven leaders. I give you a new motto and this motto is called “SAFETY LAST”. 

Safety last fights and breaks down the spirit of fear holding you back from pursuing your dreams. Martin Luther King Jnr. was never thinking Safety First when he led his Freedom March to Washington Dc where he delivered the famous “I HAVE A DREAM” speech. Mother Theresa was never afraid to stand up for her beliefs. Talk about the great Nelson Mandela who led South Africa out to freedom. Nelson Mandela was not even afraid to abandon his legal career to go to prison for the cause of freedom. 

May I inform you that pain births success at the end of the tunnel. Oops! Even scripture says “Weeping may endure for a night but joy (success) comes in the morning. The pain or loss of today shouldn’t make you lose the glory of tomorrow. Never be afraid to pursue you dream which will transform society through you.
Think Safety last in pursuit of your life's goals.

WHAT'S YOUR CONTRIBUTION TO LIFE❓

WHAT'S YOUR CONTRIBUTION TO LIFE❓ Everyone and everything on earth has something to contribute to life however big or however small. The trees, the sun, the moon, the sand, insects, cars, ideas and everything existing whether animate or inanimate has a lot to fulfill. If animals and even inanimate object contributes to living and has things to offer the world; thoughts like why humans created with better features and qualities feel they have nothing to offer this world can't help but peruse my mind. Reminiscing on these thoughts, I think it's because people has lost sight of the value of the little things. As the saying goes, "little drops of water makes a might ocean", that little smile can start a life changing relationship. That kind act of love can save a generation. That transport fare paid for that stranger can make a billionaire. That silent prayer said can heal a life. Talk more of the teachings we've been giving out to thousands of pe...

LIFE IS A PREREQUISITE FOR HOPE

Everyday comes with new challenges that we have to face and mountains we have to surmount. Life is filled with ups and downs. As a new day dawns, different things comes to our mind; things we want to achieve, things we have not achieved, sometimes regrets of unfulfilment, disappointment and feat to carry on; but once there is life, there is hope. Life is living and nothing in this life is worth dying. The only thing that is worth dying for has died for us. What do you want? Is it money, A break, fame or is it the rave of the moment like the latest model of Benz, iPhone and the rest? Are those truely worth dying for? If you die, you cease to exist and the power to become has been taken away from you but as far you have life, there is room for a better tomorrow. What we make out of life is as a result of what we have on the inside. Work on yourself. Build capacity. Come out of you comfort zone and be creative. Learn from people's mistake and step up your game. W...

I CHOOSE TO BE A NIGERIAN by John Johnson

I CHOOSE TO BE A NIGERIAN In my quiet moment, I thought within myself the Impact of western civilization on Africa, precisely Nigeria. And this question kept flowing through my mind, and I ask you. Did we truly gain independence in 1960? A question that seems simple, yet complicated when truly analyzed. In 1960 we simply became more dependent by moving from Dependence to being In Dependence (which explains the depth of our mental dependence). When they left our land, they did not leave with their language, their ideologies, their systems, their beliefs, their values, and the worse of all their identity. Little wonder, we always want to talk and act like them. The very reason why we have made them our standard for measuring almost everything. We undermine the uniqueness of a true African and have not taken seriously the fact that our culture is preserved in our local languages. For instance, "Thank you" in most Nigerian languages would mean: "I'm ...
