LiteratureRe: Which Book Are You Currently Reading? Share Some Thoughts! by basti1212(m): 3:39am On Dec 20, 2016
dearpreye:
We've been repeatedly told that readers are leaders. Also, that he who doesn't read has a very little advantage over the one that cannot read. To read is to learn and grow. We won't stay long enough to experience all life has to offer. We need to read to learn from the lessons and experiences of others.

It's very saddening that in this age, despite the overwhelming abundance of information, a lot of us don't really study.

All the information we need to succeed in life has been written. Be it on money, marriage, health, business, family, success itself, religion. Name it. It's been written.

I'm currently reading THE ROAD LESS TRAVELLED, By Scott Peck. It's being an awesome read. The author talked on pleasure, suffering, discipline, delayed gratification, child training and religion.

I'll talk briefly on self gratification. It's the ability to forego today's even legitimate pleasure for tomorrow's gain. Without it, wealth, health and joy will elude the individual. No one can truly succeed without this vital ingredient of life. To delay gratification is to prioritise. To delay gratification is to always look at the bigger picture.

The future is hardly far away. It comes pretty quiver than we can imagine. Time hasn't waited for anyone. If we must live a happier tomorrow, we must be mature and brave enough to delay gratification. I'll encourage as many as possible to get a copy of this great book and travel in the mind of the author.

So, let's see which book you're currently reading. Any book. And don't forget to drop a line or two from it. Thanks.

Lalasticlala and Ishilove, please let's do justice to this thread. Readers are leaders.

"in eight months' time" by Bassey Ette. It is a love story shrouded in manipulation and deception. Though a novel but it can be a self help book. It's quite informative. For example, it tried to outline the best spa location in the world which south Africa is the only country in Africa to be among. "about three hundred and some how years ago, land was wealth. So the person who owned the land owned the wealth. Then, it was factories and production and, America rose to dominance and still dominating! The industrialist owned the wealth. Today, it information. And the person with the timeliest information owns the wealth". This is a quote from one of the characters. You can follow my signature to get your copy.

Nothing like satanic occult. There's always a trick to every supposed magic. If you take your time and examine well, you'll find the trick.

This is why Africa will never develop. They put too much belief in black magic, voodoo and rituals while they neglect hardwork and Knowledge and intelligence. Where will you ever hear this from in the western world ?

It baffles me some mumus still fall for a magic as petty as sword piercing grin. Even some of the worlds greatest magicians have been busted in time past. Just check out this link as shared by someone. http://sabotagetimes.com/life/5-of-historys-greatest-magic-tricks-explained
And some people have been calling me names...
Africans can be so gullible and foolish grin
The whites will say it is hardwork and intelligence. We will say it is black magic.

It is ponzi scheme! The reason it hasn't crash yet is because they did not promise 100% or 200% of your investment. But 30% for one month. So, it will hang around for a while. But it will surely crash and when it does, it will hit like a plane that has fallen all the way down the sky, BOOM!! Like a bang. #be warned. #be timing. #be careful. #be smart. #be wise

But where have they been all this years? Is it because no record label found them good enough? Or they ran out of songs?

I was shocked when I discovered this myself. As a corporate communicator, I made lots of personal research to come up with what will be interesting, educating and, inspiring. I emphasize again, we really need to educate our young ones on things like this and on self mastery. Our future will be bright if we can master ourselves today.

Parents and schools haven' t done enough to help our young ones... A girl of 14yrs old can easily become a spoilt brat than to become what would impact the society positively. We have to educate these children so that they will know the real reason why they should do this or that. A 14yr. old girl in this modern world should and must have enough knowledge to keep herself from dangers like this! What you really want is what you will really have.

They've arrested the judges. If this report is true, then what is keeping Dss or Efcc from doing their work? Or, are they waiting so that they can negotiate the bribe money?
