Farm where?

There is insecurity everywhere and in areas where insecurity is minimal, theft is rampant

People are unsure of their next meal.

Would you steal food from your neighbour's farm if you had a kid and you had no idea where your next meal will come from?
Not every where

Education is the best solution I can think of right now. Probably, other better ideas are unknown.

Thanks.

Bonjovi13, who is the God and how does one find him?

CaveAdullam:


You've made a good point, man. I do appreciate it.

But you know what? It's always easier said than done.

Combining different hustles just to make ends meet is the problem of being a young African adult.

Meanwhile, being a skilled factory worker in a developed world gives you everything Africans pray and fast for yearly, day in and out.

In Africa, you need to know how to code + weld + write + speak good English + strong + know accounting + know how to communicate + use Microsoft tools + know how to bake + know how to cook + know how to design... before you can live like the average factory worker in a developed world.

Work from 9 - 5 + find a side hustle + work during weekends + do this + do that + blah blah blah. Many do break down, faint, and collapse along the way.

The human brain has a capacity for greatness. But not with a mind cluttered with 100 different things at a time.

Have we ever considered that the average Black IQ is below average; 85 out of 100? Even an average IQ of 100 is still a great biological disadvantage.

How then do you expect people of such IQ to maneuver their ways given the fact that intelligence has a positive correlation with conscientiousness, success, grit, positive thinking, industriousness, etc?

Do you actually think that many African youths haven't passed through the process you've espoused, especially Nigerian youths?

Go search how they have been caromed by the rejection of all kinds. Not because of their lack of skills at all. But because they are Africans. Many that have moved away from the Google location - Africa, bear testament that being labeled African in Africa is a serious issue when it comes to dealing with the international community.

Africans are now like a cursed race. Because we are at the bottom of the bottomless pit.

The many activities Africans do today to make ends meet aren't what they have passion for. That's why it's very difficult for many to start and break through. It takes a sound IQ + extreme diligence to scale the process you've enlisted.

Some just want to own a farm, feed from it, and sell the excesses. Not hustling for foreign clients.

Some just want a small business to serve their local community. Not registering on various payment sites and fasting and praying to get your first pay after a tedious job well done.

You need to step out of the house into the field to see that the average African youth isn't lazy. These people scavenge smelly gutters and dustbins and refuse sites to make ends meet. They stand under the hot sun + heavy rainfall on highways to scream for both passengers and buyers.

They are not innocent of their vices. They are not free of their ignorance. However, they work very hard. Whether you call it smart work or hard work.

The average African youth is not lazy. They may be doing the wrong thing or wrong work. But they are not lazy.

Starting somewhere has never been a problem. But wait till you finish. It will seem as if you wasted your time during the process of learning.

Can you checkmate insecurity as an individual?
Can you checkmate bad roads?
Can you checkmate arrogant road users?
Can you checkmate the government sectors established for the welfare of citizens?

We've not talked about cases of emergency. Your diligence + stoicism + discipline wouldn't save you under critical medical conditions. You need a good doctor + good nurse in a good hospital to treat you.

Wait till you get to the hospital before you hear how useless and trashy the nation and continent are. After referring you from one hospital to another. You'll even start praying for death. Because the stress alone is worse than it.

These are things that are beyond your control but have a great impact on your life.

This thread is to rant, rant, and rant. Ranting is allowed.

However, Africans can't sit down expecting a magical or supernatural change.

Only we have the power to change our situations for good. From an individual to a continental level.

And of course, that's where your solution comes into play, despite the difficulty.

Thanks.

Good afternoon my friend;
I am in my mid service year, love your posts and the materials you sent to my email, I usually have religious conditioning about life generally but an incident is making me unplug but I'm very careful about the materials I'm reading, had these supernatural belief that one miraculous event would lead to my success ( yahoo jazz mindset), but now reality after school is kind of different, you make efforts to get to where you want to be and a little bit of luck.
