Family / Self Development by MattChidi(m): 9:20am On May 27, 2016
!!! The Cockroach Theory For Self Development !!!

At a restaurant, a cockroach. suddenly flew from somewhere and sat on a lady.She started screaming out of fear.With a
panic stricken face and trembling voice, she started jumping, with both her hands desperately trying to get rid of
the cockroach.
Her reaction was contagious, as everyone in her group also got panicky.
The lady finally managed to push the cockroach away but...it landed on another lady in the group.

Now, it was the turn of the other lady in the group to continue the drama.
The waiter rushed forward to their rescue.
In the relay of throwing, the cockroach next fell upon the waiter.
The waiter stood firm, composed himself and observed the behavior of the cockroach on his shirt.
When he was confident enough, he grabbed it with his fingers and threw it out of the restaurant.
Sipping my coffee and watching the amusement, the antenna of my mind picked up a few thoughts and started
wondering, was the cockroach
responsible for their histrionic
behavior?
If so, then why was the waiter
not disturbed?
He handled it near to
perfection, without any chaos.
It is not the cockroach, but
the inability of those people
to handle the disturbance
caused by the cockroach, that
disturbed the ladies.
I realized that, it is not the
shouting of my father or my
boss or my wife that disturbs
me, but it's my inability to
handle the disturbances
caused by their shouting that
disturbs me.
It's not the traffic jams on the
road that disturbs me, but my
inability to handle the
disturbance caused by the
traffic jam that disturbs me.
More than the problem, it's
my reaction to the problem
that creates chaos in my life.
Lessons learnt from the story:
I understood, I should not
react in life.
I should always respond.
The women reacted, whereas
the waiter responded.
Reactions are always
instinctive whereas responses
are always well thought of.
A beautiful way to
understand............LIFE.
Person who is HAPPY is not
because Everything is RIGHT
in his Life..
He is HAPPY because his
Attitude towards Everything in
his Life is Right!!

Education / Do Good by MattChidi(m): 12:55pm On May 08, 2016
In 1892 at Stanford University, an 18-year-old student was struggling to pay his fees. He was an orphan, and not knowing where to turn for money, he came up with a bright idea. He and a friend decided to host a musical concert on campus to raise money for their education. They reached out to the great pianist Ignacy J. Paderewski. His manager demanded a guaranteed fee of $2000 for the piano recital. A deal was struck and the boys began to work to make the concert a success.The big day arrived. But unfortunately, they had not managed to sell enough tickets. The total collection was only $1600. Disappointed, they went to Paderewski and explained their plight. They gave him the entire $1600, plus a cheque for the balance $400. They promised to honour the cheque at the soonest possible. “No,” said Paderewski. “This is not acceptable.” He tore up the cheque, returned the $1600 and told the two boys: “Here’s the $1600. Please deduct whatever expenses you have incurred. Keep the money you need for your fees. And just give me whatever is left”. The boys were surprised, and thanked him profusely.It was a small act of kindness. But it clearly marked out Paderewski as a great human being.Why should he help two people he did not even know? We all come across situations like these in our lives. And most of us only think “If I help them, what would happen to me?” The truly great people think, “If I don’t help them, what will happen to them?” They don’t do it expecting something in return. They do it because they feel it’s the right thing to do. Paderewski later went on to become the Prime Minister of Poland. He was a great leader, but unfortunately when the World War began, Poland was ravaged. There were more than 1.5 million people starving in his country, and no money to feed them. Paderewski did not know where to turn for help. He reached out to the US Food and Relief Administration for help.He heard there was a man called Herbert Hoover — who later went on to become the US President. Hoover agreed to help and quickly shipped tons of food grains to feed the starving Polish people.A calamity was averted. Paderewski was relieved. He decided to go across to meet Hoover and personally thank him. When Paderewski began to thank Hoover for his noble gesture, Hoover quickly interjected and said, “You shouldn’t be thanking me Mr. Prime Minister. You may not remember this, but several years ago, you helped two young students go through college. I was one of them.” The world is a wonderful place. What goes around comes around. Please help others to the best of your ability. In the long run you may be helping yourself. God never forgets anyone who sows a good seed in other people, never. Nothing in nature lives for itself. Rivers don't drink their own water. Trees don't eat their own fruit. Sun doesn't give heat for itself. Flowers don't spread fragrance for themselves. Living for others is the rule of nature. And therein lies the secret of living.....

Romance / Re: Dating A Broke Guy (my Experience): Is It Worth It? by MattChidi(m): 7:39pm On Apr 26, 2016
Do you know that most Nigerian ladies are into relationship not because of love but simply monetary gains. If no money then love won't make any sense that's their perspective. From the post, the writer never mentioned where she works or what she does for a living, instead she kept on reeling out how broke her guy is. My dear stop living the life of dependency. No man likes liability...when he sees how zealous and supportive you are, he will definitely place the world at your feet, all you need do, Is be patient and do your own thing while waiting.
Everyone desire the good life but it comes with a price.

Its only a woman with no vision will think like this. I bet you'd like to be seen as a liability to a man who married you since you brought nothing to the table. You need an already made man please also be ready for its consequences, don't. come and lament here that you're not happy in your marriage despite your fat account.

Life is a gradual process, from low to high...if you think a man shouldn't think of a woman when he's working to make ends meet how do you expect him to consider you when he has made it.

Family / Who Is Your Friend? by MattChidi(m): 6:59pm On Feb 26, 2016
The preacher man advised that there are two kinds of friends we need to cut out completely from our lives; 1. Negative people; people who see problems, difficulties, impossibilities and failure in everything. 2. Lazy people who hide under religion and expect God to do everything for them. I would love to add mine: 3. The 'Yes-Yes' kinda friends. Friends who don't challenge you or think of bringing out the best in you. Friends who accepts everything you say and don't critique any. Such friends will only make you live a life of a mediocre, an average, a life below what you ought to be. # ChooseYourFriendsWisely
Add yours..

Religion / What's Love? by MattChidi(m): 11:02am On Feb 14, 2016
Love entails that you should make a decision to seek the ultimate good for another person or all the people around you. Love is a choice. '' Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.''-1 Cor 13:4-8 If the love you profess does not posses these qualities, my dear, you need to make a decision and start loving truly, for love is a beautiful thing. May your heart be filled with love. Happy St. Valentine's Day my dear friends. # SpreadLove

Family / Times Are Hard...a Piece Of Advice by MattChidi(m): 4:28am On Jan 19, 2016
LITTLE PIECE OF ADVICE:
By now, it should be clear to all of
us that this year will be a difficult one
and to survive it, you just have to start
planning from Day 1.
Be prepared to let go of some
things and spend only when absolutely
necessary. If you have saved money, try not to touch it quickly.
Avoid capital projects in the next
few months until you are certain of
replenishing your bank accounts.
Avoid social travels that bring no
added income.
If attending a burial, wedding,
naming ceremony, marriage anniversary
will eat into your savings, avoid them. You would be called names, accept the name
calling but understand that these
same
people will call you worse names if
you
have to borrow from them to feed
your
family.
Reduce your responsibilities. Your
first
duty is to your family. If you don't
provide for them, others will rarely
do so.
Talk to your friends who are
working not
to bother asking you for favours.
Many of
them wear Armani shoes and will
ask you
for extra money to maintain their
lavish
lifestyles.
Avoid those who ask you in
advance
what you are going to get for them
on
their birthdays or Valentine day.
They tell you things are hard but refuse
to agree that things are hard for you
too.
If your friends on social media
send you a private message complaining about hardship and asking you for help,
tell
them if you start helping everyone
on
social media who has asked you
for help,
you will end up begging for help
too.
Cut your pants according to your
size. If
you think that staying in Lekki will
take
more than half of your savings,
move to
Otta.
The downfall of a man is not the
end of
his life.
Help your friends to start cutting
costs
by cutting costs yourself. Don't
spend
thousands to celebrate your
birthday
because you will be putting
pressure on
them to celebrate theirs.
If they call and ask how your
birthday is
going to be, tell them "Ground no
level".
Tell them you hope things will
improve
next year.
Do not be pushed into unnecessary
spending for any
reason.
Even if you have the money to
spend,
spend on things that can uplift
your life
and the life of others.
People have spent millions on
their
wedding, only to live unhappily
thereafter.
People have spent millions on
their
birthdays, only to be forgotten a
few
months after.
Most importantly, understand that
happiness does not come from
vanity.
They hail you as Abuja Big Boy,
Lagos
Big Girl, London Big Girl, Yankee
Big Boy
or Europa! its just a state of mind.
There are hundreds of people out
there,
unknown in your circles who are
living a
quiet life of bliss.
Moreover, there is no Big Boy or
Girl in
the grave.
Economic indices have indicated
trying
times ahead.
CONCENTRATE YOUR ENERGY ON
THINGS THAT CAN IMPROVE YOUR
LIFE
AND THE LIFE OF PERSONS CLOSE
TO
YOU.
# Seriously reflect on the message
and hope it makes a difference in our
attitude to doing things in this
difficult time.
