18 German Values, Culture & Ethics Nigeria Should Emulate From Germany&China by Ade3000yrs(m): 7:12pm On Aug 31, 2016
Here are 18 Great German Quotes and Ethics that Nigeria must imbibe to Get Result in Africa like The German Influence and Dominance in Europe: Without racial sentiments or cultural bias parameters, we must examine and horn the historical significance of the rich Dutch cultural insights and what makes them exceptional from the rest of the world.
Unlike the French, Portuguese, Spanish, Americans, Russians, Japanese, China and the British, The Dutch has a long standing resolutions for mobility and results. The 1940 Blitzkrieg Strategy employed to ransack & humble the rest of Europe demonstrated the momentum and deadly pound of the Juggernaut. The modeled subject examined here is her efficiency and not the chaos caused.
Today every one on earth who is a student of history understand what the word Germans stand for, not rebellion, not masochistic nor megalomaniac streaks but efficiency.
The German culture is used in this analogy due to their consistency, attitude to work and result oriented ethics as it is seen in all Dutch speaking land of the world today in relative to economic strength in countries such as Netherlands, Norway, Austria, Poland, Luxembourg, to a great extent as far as South Africa, Switzerland, Monaco, Sweden, Finland, France, England, Russia, Japan and the entire Europe as the German spirit is almost every where and has permeated every sector of visible growth around the world. Especially the developed world.
Just as the recently concluded 10th Rio Olympic that ended 5 - 4 on penalty shoot out between Brazil and Germany and the 9th Olympic and that of July 2014 FIFA world cup Brazil versus Germany that ended 1-7 in the favour of Germany was no coincidence, so is the German dexterity in other gainful human ventures. The Germans trashed Brazil 1984, 1988 & 2012 for an all record Olympic title.
The Dutch has the power of the Sphinx that rises from the ash and makes something out of Nothing. This inherent culture and enviable feature, I expect Nigerians to emulate. If the Germans could come out of rubble and pile of dust in 1945 to become the center and the European frontier and sit of economic power today, I believe We Nigerians can do the same.
I compiled this write up to depict the Dutch cultural and moral values for Nigerians and the rest of the African countries to wake up and light a fire in our behind.
Here are a few German and Dutch Cultural Orientations that makes the Germans & Dutch top of every venture & reasons for their efficiency boast from which you can draw strength and reflections: 1. All beginnings are hard, 2. He who rest grows rusty. 3. The devils favourite piece of furniture is the long bench {Procrastination}, 4. "Practice is what makes a master," Mastery is hard to attain. It takes continuous honing of your skills to get realy good at something. To attain high level of proficiency, u must practice, innovate or you loose been number one in your field. 5. Only the strongest survive. 6. Starting is easy, persistent is an art. 7. failure makes smart, Ever tried, Ever failed. No matter, try again, fail again, fail better By Samuel Beckett. 8. the cheapest is always the most expensive, invest in quality and never take little things for granted, 9. You don't see the forest for all the trees. Success & failures mks us vulnerable to fate's whims & sets in frustration easily, 10. First think, then act. 11. Don't worry about eggs that haven't been laid yet, 12. Crooked logs also make straight fires; The perfect is d enemy of good. A lot of people wait for d elusive perfect moment that may never come, when d stars align & everything falls into place. Life don't work like that, "Do what you can, with what you have, where you are. By Theodore Roosevelt, 13. You have to take things the way they come, 14. Employ an adaptive mindset and take life as it is, not as it should be, 15. The morning hour has gold in its mouth, 16. Actions speaks louder than words, 17. Yourself is the man, Yourself is the woman, If you want something done, do it yourself, 18. He who chases two rabbits at once will catch none.
As individual, let's save each other the adjulation of a future nobody can predict. Nigeria and Africa is going through a developmental phase. It is true that we want Miracle overnight for which almost every advantage puts us at the spot light of disappointments. The rest of the developed countries with which we compare Nigeria also had their darkest nights of thick socio economic tumult hundreds of years ago. Till today, these acclaimed and admired countries still have their peculiar problems and challenges that if meted on Nigerians and Africans will sink our economy completely, and our fall, pain and agony will be astronomically sharp and sour.

For me, I still consider Nigeria and the rest of the Africa countries as virgin and green horn in the eye and in the light of truth, knowledge and innocence.
So that we don't rescind into becoming an inexperienced powerful child with a nuclear war head that can consume the world in its darkest hour. Let's not separate the heart from our bosom chest in a jolly experiment amorously, so that our 40 days journey does not become a 40 years extensional Exodus. Only the lazy and the weak amongst us expect the hocus pocus in one night. Only talkers but unfortunately, 365 days of lip service don't build bridges and sky scrapers. Let's demonstrate shrewdness and caution the way we futherly tear down our father and motherland for others to join in the crow feast. Instead be an agent of Change just like the German spirit from the moment of the Zero hour.

This is not to suggest Nigeria playing 2nd fiddle to any Country but a question of imbibing good culture and socio cultural and work ethics for societal development. China did it and got result and relevance in Asia just like the Germans Saliently Control the entire Europe. I believe Nigeria can do the same in Africa.

like I always say, Nigeria with Africa is a very beautiful land enriched with multi cultural diversity which is an enviable blessing. Alot of doom sayers and mischief makers out of envy and greed are ready to pay A trillion dollar to pedal viral rumor into peoples ears and to sow seed of discord just to see Nigeria Divide all just for the oil and Nothing more. If any of this people tell you they care or they love you or fighting for your interest or to avenge your parents death, its a very big fat lie. Its the same vain and hopeless mechanism of promising ladies juicy package and benefits of traveling out to Europe and before you know it they end up ruining their life surviving and into prostitution. APC and PDP and a host of other Progressive parties may have failed Nigerians but believe me we shall get there someday and I believe these parties are equally trying their best to get the desired result. With certain reservations, I am 65% against seccession of any kind as these will only make matters worse for everybody and far worse for the secessionist agitators and mischief makers. let's not allow people who live in some foreign land to bad mouth us out of envy and without knowing what it takes to be an African.
Promise Land is not America, its not Europe, its not Asia, Australasia nor Mecca nor Jerusalem, Rome nor Israel but a state of mind.

Those who don't know your struggle
can never know your pain. Stop complaining, start doing something. Imbibe the German spirit of efficiency. We need to make decisions of our own and not just talk. Sure alot of people hv looted Nigeria and truncated State and National resources to their family inheritance; Surely the fair and Iron hand of the law will catch up with them and they shall be brought to book to serve as a deterrent to others eyeing the same vain course, we cannot continue to live like pigs growing fat and enjoying the luxury of the mud with mud pig smiles. Our value orientation must change and we must be devoid of corruption to the barest minimum. Reasonable investment can withstand 50 to 100 years in a corruption ridden country as the economy will always be jerky, inconsistent, unpredictably fluctuates to the advantage of lions and wolves who believes in winners takes all and lords their individual interest over the interest of the state. In our pains and Without Party affiliation and party or ethnoreligious bias, lets support President Muhammed Buharri. Nigeria needs speedy Industrialization and intensified Agricultural efforts to resourcitate the economy.

Your write-up needs amendment. For instance, replace "Dutch" with Deutsche, "Sphinx" with phoenix.

It is clear that you are trying your hand on writing. Keep it up. You will get better with time, practice and more extensive reading.
