Family / What Does The Family Need To Know About Cultism by Emmiasky(m): 3:16pm On Dec 06, 2019
CULTISM
The devotion to the doctrine or a cult or to the practices of a cult usually being practiced and executed in secret and away from public eyes, cultism.

Despite the numerous placards, billboards, visual ads on newspapers and journals distributed on school walls and in neighboring surroundings, it’s such a demeaning fact to understand that many students and individuals are still enticed to the sullen act of cultism as a way of life which once in – getting out (alive) might not really be an option or is a very demanding one and an act which inevitably ends up damaging, thwarting the lives of participants as well as endangering the lives of others, those related to them included even to the capital extent of seizing the life breath away from a human being.
The issue of cultism has been a perturbing issue since the days its focus was shifted from academic excellence and difference to bullying, control and power.
The first case was originated during the times of Nobel Laureate. Wole Soyinka, back in the days at the prestigious University of Ibadan with colleagues in school preparing themselves to excel in their studies in secret though then noted for the academic and extra-curricular values it provided its members with and not a dark group of individuals on red, black, yellow, green or whatever color seeking dominance and to oppress anyone they feel like, we can say Cultism of then should be tagged White-Cults who signify knowledge and good while the ones of now well, red, black and yellow cults as these are some of the colors associated with many evil fraternities in the nation are just there to do more damage than is already being suffered by people of the community.
But the question society should ask is Why? – Is the experience of cultism so grandeur that it propels a score of individuals towards itself and they get drawn to it as Pooh to honey or is it for the power and what are the unseen figures enticing and guiding many into act and luring innocent people to it.

Business / This Is Why Many People Are Still Where They Are In Life And Business by Emmiasky(m): 3:05pm On Dec 06, 2019
If wishes were horses, beggars would ride

Have you ever randomly included the term MOTIVATION on YouTube and how were the results? Astonishing right?
While they might not be reaching the Gangnam Style numbers, getting up to 4–5 million views is actually quite a milestone and what do these vlogs or videos usually on?
Change, Impact, Personal development, Self-Improvement, Motivation, education and the likes but what is the problem and why does it seem like so many or most individuals around the world are only listening but are unable to carry out what they want to in themselves or they are just able to wish for the so-called change in their lives but unable to make it real and tangible?

You just need to take a stroll on the top podcasting platforms – and you’ll realize that truly, and daily millions upon millions are desperately trying to get that change or improvement in their lives, desperately wishing and many; actually working towards that change in themselves, their doings, work, education, relationship, family, life and in all other facets that one columns as an individual and a brilliant one as that but the question is and will always be ‘Why do people still fail after spending hours staying motivated to change their lives?’

While changing one’s life (or should I say improving life) is not a day’s job but might be more demanding than most other things people do, doing it is actually one of the hardest decisions one will ever take as a human, really it is not easy to find discomfort in comfort and seek change in normalcy, so even after listening to all that talk from Billy Alsbrook, Eric Thomas, Tony Robbins and so many other motivators and impact makers, it’s become a norm for most to think about what they’ve just been taught or educated on, make the decision to take up the challenge, (a few of the lot) follow it up for a few days or weeks, get worn out and finally go like ‘arrgh, this is not my thing’ quit and end up going back to their previous lives, the life they’ve been living in mediocrity and gotten tired of previously, but why do they do this?
It’s not like Tony Robbins forced them to listen to his podcast or visit his YouTube channel anyways? (Permit me, he does irate our eyes with ads on YouTube sometimes) but people hear of such platforms somehow and go visit to learn, to seek knowledge and when they do, they end up backing out and going back to their ugly lives so to this, I’ve decided to couple up the reason I think and have associated with many individuals why lots do not usually get the change they seek in themselves or their doings.


Inertia/Inability to take the first step

A state of unwillingness to move, or change position, that is basically the definition of inertia, a term in physics, defined as ‘the tendency of a body to maintain its state of rest or uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force’, it is the unwillingness of a human being to achieve change or difference without a push from others, it is that heavy burden that stops people from taking the first steps towards their goals, aspirations and desires and keep their backs sitted in their benches at home or at their so-detested place of work that takes the chunk of their lives by the 9-5 of drudgery but to take that one step, just the first one towards a new life of lifestyle usually is what have held lots and lots of individuals from actually achieving the change their desire in their lives and while the eventual result of inertness is stagnancy in life, detestable career, relationship and various other facets of life, just the one step to change seems like the most arduous of all but as said ‘the journey of a thousand miles begins with just a step’, not willing to take that one step eventually leads a lot the way they never intended and they have to live with that.


Comfort

This should make a lot of individuals wonder ‘How does comfort relate to change, impact and development?’ but rather unfortunately, so many people are actually comfortable with their so-dreaded life and lifestyle, they’d rather suffer and smile than break the chain and truly be free.
Being so into the norm actually has a lot of people not seeking change or discomfort, not even for a second, many would rather stay unfit and unhealthy than work out a while and improve both their physical appearance and general well-being (health).
Comfort puts people in a state of stagnation and imposed dogmatization but seeking discomfort and development which many dread on the other hand places move an individual into a state of constant development and improvement.
Ask yourself truly, ‘Am I being comfortable in this position I am in life or am I pushing for more and better things?’ or better still ask ‘Am I influencing things or am I only being influenced?’
The impact makers of the world were once normal individuals who broke the norm only because they felt uncomfortable with the happenings around and within them, most fail to realize they live a too simple, ruled life and they tend to follow the rules, not say much (not to be confused with introversion),not shake the walls but be the square peg in the square hole as said by a speaker and do not realize that everything they are actually desiring in on the other side of where they are right now.


Dogma

So many individuals have been indoctrinated by their main influences while being nurtured usually parents, schools and other environmental factors into a belief system that places a demarcation on their lives and the achievements therein, and this enables such people into casting a restrain on themselves and forces them to live in a state of mediocrity, less than what they actually can because they’ve been forced into believing that the 9-5s, the save-till-you-die mantra are what they can achieve and the things they get to watch on T.V or listen to on radio, the record-breaking achievements, thesis breakthrough, the 5.0 GPA scores are the things they cannot, why? Because it is not for them (the victims of dogma) but for those ahead of them and with such belief at heart, millions are forced to lay standards that should be under-achievements for themselves and tag these their life-goals and ambitions

Usually, it is one major factor affecting the middle-class (if there really is something like that) and those who basically lack things they want in life.


Lack of Commitment

In this world of today where everything seems to be all about the instant things, the YouTube views, the Facebook likes, the IG likes, Retweets and all of that, disciplining oneself and committing to focus on needed things and finding a way to neglect the disturbances seem like a really big trouble for so many......

TV/Movies / Why Are Youths Losing Interest In Nollywood by Emmiasky(m): 4:47pm On Dec 02, 2019
The phrase “I don’t do Nollywood” is a very popular statement amidst the younger generation in Nigeria today or is it not?
What’s more?
It seems justified because movies made in the industry leaves you wondering at the qualification of the casts and if they are actually qualified to be involved in production in the first place.

However, nowadays, it seems they are aware of the ‘complaints’ of the masses, (Younger masses) and Nollywood has really stepped up a notch.
New productions has really stepped up and the change in the messages passed also have evolved

Movies like Lionheart, directed by Genevieve Nnaji, King of Boys, co-produced by Kemi Adetiba, Make A Move, Forgetting June, House of Gold, Alter Ego etc. are part of those that would keep a literary critic’s mind positive and willing to contribute to the space.

This change or improvement however this is not to bring fans into the Nollywood sphere although it might be doing so, it is not actually the opposite too, but it might turn out to be.

There is no need for any special advert to publicise corruption in the nation filled with diverse tongues and ideologies. This is a well-known fact even the day old baby should know it, the leaders and even those not leading are really living a corrupt life and this is a phenomenon that needs no introduction to the people in the nation.



We, as a developing country are still trying or pretending to – working with one hand at our backs towards curbing corruption country and do not need further assistance in aborting this process.
An abortion that some Nigerian movies are oblivious to the fact that they are actively involved in it.
