Crime / Re: Nigerian Man Arrested At Seme Border For Failure To Declare $52,201, £320. Photo by mindsetshift: 9:21pm On May 10, 2018 |
34webers:you can not declare anything that is more than 10000 dollars. And he probably sort his dollars in another country where he got it cheaper. It is a normal practice for business men who do business within African countries. Remember that there is amount of money to be taken as tax once you declare the money and it hurts these business men's business. This guy was just unlucky or he had once had issues with the guys at the border. |

Politics / Leadership by mindsetshift: 12:49pm On Apr 05, 2018 |
Leadership INTRODUCTION: Leadership is one of the most misunderstood words in this universe. Because virtually every one of us under the sun believes he knows what leadership means and also what it is all about. I always place LEADERSHIP and LOVE at the same bag because love like leadership means different thing to different people. These two words are like that proverbial elephant felt by six blind men. These six men have different thing this elephant mean to them all based on which part of the elephant they were able to lay hold on. Many time people say what they fill or think about leadership or love all based on their own “private” experience or experience of someone they assume they know very well. What I have done over the years anytime I am invited to speak on LOVE is to first tell my audience that love is not a noun but a verb, I also dare tell them that love is not a place but a journey without destination. You know this always sound ridiculous to my audience especially the young ones who think they have arrived because they have found the “love” of their life. Most shockingly to me, recently I also discovered that Leadership is not also a noun but a verb and leadership is not a place but also a journey without destination. Because I have found out that leadership is not about “just” what you do but a combination of who you are and what you do. Leadership like love is a journey every living human is consciously or unconsciously engaged in. It is not important if you know it or not.

Buhari invited over to work with him, he should give them those comfort they need for optimum perfomance. If his 16years old daughter could enjoy the comfort of 1st class in BA, then these men with the job of “fixing“ nigeria should also be given some level of comfort too. |
Religion / Re: I Want To Change My Church. Pls Suggest A Good One. by mindsetshift: 1:50pm On Nov 14, 2015 |
VickyHills:thanks so much for making this known here. My advise to you might be strange but I will still say it anyway. Please don't leave that church. If the word of God there is good and sound. But i think God wants to use you to bring a change in the way they love. What I am saying is stay there and teach them what love means. Because if you ho to another one, you will also discover their flaws. Any church that is been attended by human beings has its peculiar challenge. Stay where you are and let your light of love overwhelm their lack of love |
Religion / Between Your Prayer Request And God's Response by mindsetshift: 1:41pm On Nov 14, 2015 |
any times we tend to miss the answer to our prayers because of the little distractions that always occur between the time of our request and the answer to our prayers. I won't actually blame anyone that misses it at that point because it is not always easy to wait. But experience has taught me that anytime we present our needs to God and God assures us of His positive response to our needs, it is worth it for us to wait. God through His Spirit made me to understand that we always fall out because of distractions that we see when He is on His way to give us what we have requested for. Let us take a look at Mark 5:21-42. This is a story we all know very well. It about Jairus a leader of a synagogue. HIS REQUEST: Jairus came to Jesus Christ and requested that Jesus Christ follow him to his house to lay his hand upon his 12years old sick daughter. Of which Jesus obliged him. I know that you who is reading this post or writeup has made many requests to God in the time past. I am sure that some of you just finished making a request to God few minutes ago before you started reading this. The way Jesus agreed to go with Jairus to his house is how He has agreed to meet you at the point of your need. In Jesus name. Amen. Many of us always shout amen and jump up when a declaration is made upon our head from the pulpit in response to our prayer and heart desire. But soon we tend to become melancholic when we have not seen what we shouted hallelujah and amen for. Our attitude at times makes it look as if God has lied or if the person whom He used to make that pronouncement is lying. But the truth is that God does not lie and the person whom God used to make that pronouncement didn't also lie. The simple thing that happen is that the space between the time of our request and our actual receiving of our request is always filled with distractions. At that point we always lose focus. BACK TO JAIRUS: As Jesus was on His way to Jairus' house, two things happened in quick succession. The first...mindsetshift..com.ng/2015/11/between-your-prayer-request-gods-answer.html |
Nairaland / General / Wait No Longer by mindsetshift: 12:17am On Jul 14, 2015 |
Success belongs to that person that understands how to do. I mean that person that knows how to take the bull by the horn without wasting anytime at all. That person that understands how to do what should be done and is ready to do it NOW. That person who does not put things off in the name of NEXT TIME. Because from my own findings I have discovered that there is nothing that keeps a person down at a spot than “I will do it tomorrow or the next day.” It is called procrastination. Procrastination drains our ability to succeed. Because it keeps us from doing what needs to be done, when it is supposed to be done. A wise man said “procrastination is a thief of time.” And this is very true. Procrastination stole the time of many parents. It stole the time of many people who are roaming our streets and path ways, begging for alms. And it is still stealing the time of so many young people today. When I look around and see old men who are engaged in things like truck pushing, Motor cycle riding (Okada) or who act as gate men and other hard and tedious jobs, I always ask myself; why are they doing this now? Is it because they were once well-to-do but situation turned around and things became bad or is it because they fail to do what they are supposed to do at a particular point when they were in their young age? Are they into this because their parents were not able to train them in something better? Or is it because they lost TIME to PROCRASTINATION? These questions most times push me into action because one thing I dread so much as a person is living a sympathetic life when I will be in my 60s or 70s. One day I was invited by a church in Lagos for their thanksgiving service. I got to the church late because I had another engagement somewhere else. So when I got to the venue, I stood outside not wanting to draw attention because I have been to the church about two times or more (I can’t remember now) as a guest speaker. As I was outside waiting for one of the Usher to get me somewhere to sit at the back. Something that brought tears to eyes happen. One old man who would be either in his late 60s or early 70s walked up to me and greeted me. I responded with a broad smile. He said, “my son I know that you don’t know me.” I was quiet and still smiling because someone who is in what I call “speaking business” can never know all those that know him or her. He continued, “my son do you know that at my age I practice those things you taught us when you came here the last time. They are what I am putting into practice now and they are helping me. I wish I had known them when I was younger, I would have been greater than what I am now.” All the while I was smiling but after the last line of his words, smile was drain off my lips. Because something pierced my heart and fear gripped me. Fear gripped me because one thing that is hunting many old people today is what they could have done when they were young that they didn’t do. Not because there were no opportunity but because something that is less importance took away their time. Even today there are many people who crying about unemployment that knows within themselves that the reason why they are unemployed and even unemployable is bec http://mindsetshift..com/2015/07/wait-no-longer.html |
Nairaland / General / The Man Behind The Veil by mindsetshift: 3:48pm On Jul 09, 2015 |
Looking at how life kept turning many people around and how other people make some other persons feel inferior. I had this strong urge to write this piece because someone out there whom I may never know needs to read it and pick up the broken pieces of his or her life. Let me start by telling you that what determines whom you become is not what that person around you told you. I will also say that your family and friends do not have the right to define your person to you. Even you who is reading this piece do not have the right to define yourself. The only person that has the full right to define you is the person that made you; the person that created you. A car does not decide what it is built for. It is the manufacturer that determines what the car is built for and what the car should be called. The driver of the car might use the car for any other thing but that will mean “abusing the car.” So many of us have abused our lives by the things we do with it. Some of us abuse our lives by the things we say about ourselves. Some of us have also abused ourselves by what we call ourselves. Many a time, we blame others for abusing us in one way or another while we are the greatest “abusers” of our lives. You must dare to be yourself. May Sarton wrote, “We have to dare to be ourselves, however frightening or strange that self may prove to be.” Become whom God has built you to be. What I want to tell you that read this piece is that whatever it is the world around you and you yourself have called yourself that is contrary to what your maker calls you will stop having negative effect on you after reading this write up. After reading this piece the pain and emotional pain and psychological defect which have followed you for sometimes will fly away with the wind, never to come back. Follow me… THE SPIRIT THAT LIVES IN ME: The Spirit that lives you is the Spirit of God. It doesn’t matter if you believe in God or not. The Bible says in Genesis 1:26 “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.” God personally made you by himself not by His spoken word. He didn’t create you the same way he created animals and plants. I know some people that read this piece believe in evolution theory. However, years after evolution theory were introduced into this world. They still remains at the level of theory. There have... http://mindsetshift..com/2015/07/the-man-behind-veil.html |

Romance / LOVE AND SEX (love Race 2) by mindsetshift: 9:25am On Jun 26, 2015 |
Love and Sex do you think they go together? This was a question posed to my readers in one of my publications. To some of the readers of my bulletin, they believe that they walk hand in hand and yet to others they say that they are two different ball games. Well in this post I will try to face the facts and the truths that surround this matter squarely, based on my finding and personal discoveries and experience. You are very much welcome to this roller coaster ride called THE LOVE RACE 2. I will try to be very brief in what I am about to write, but I will be glad if you will keep what you will get from it very well in your memory. Love & sex do not go together when people are not yet married. Love & Sex are two separate issues when people are still singles. Love & sex can’t be separated when people are married. Love & Sex become one word when couple has said the words “I do,” “till death do us part.” Sexual intercourse is sacred and it is reserved only for married couples. Sex between married couple is fulfilling God’s divine plan and purpose for marital companionship. Sex in marriage is a way of living within the marriage circle. It is an everlasting obligation and not a sign of love. It is not a proof that you love your spouse. God designed sexual intercourse just for the two people who are duly married. Sexual satisfaction has nothing to do with two people who have not taken the oath or marital vow. If by omission or commission someone marries who he/she does not love he/she have to stick to him/her, until death comes in between to separate them. And if you are married to someone who because of sickness, age or accident lost his/her sexual potency...the bitter truth is that you must stick to him/her, and never to seek sexual satisfaction outside your matrimonial home. If you do seek it outside your home then you have committed the sin of adultery. The sin of adultery is a punishable offence. Some people may be shocked to learn that sexual intercourse was God’s idea. He wove the sexual dimension of our personality into the very fibre of our beings. We are sexual beings in every way. Sexual attraction is... Source:http://mindsetshift..com/2012/11/love-and-sex-love-race-2_21.html |

Romance / Follow Me On A Love Race (love And Sex Part 1) by mindsetshift: 12:25am On Jun 25, 2015 |
What do you think about “Love”? Or should I say what about the common experience people call “Love”? Is love combination of what looks good to the eye and makes the heart race? Doesn’t everyone experience the same euphoric feelings when they (fall) are in love? The first time you (you think) are in love how great was (is) your feelings? Oh!, I know that I may probably be reminding you about the first time you (fall) are in love. Your heart skipped whenever he/she was around or whenever you heard (hear) his/her voice. Anytime you perceive the aroma of his/her perfume that butterfly feelings makes your head to swell. Oh! What-sha-ma-I-say? Sometimes Sirnoel can be a little controversial. Please just follow me as I flow… Friend if physical reactions accurately define love; why are there so many divorces today? Sky-high divorce rate and brake up in relationships strongly indicates there must be more to love than natural short-lived emotional reactions. People have kept on failings in and out of love. Why? Because they have never really told “themselves” the truth. From my teen age I have always hated the word “Fall-in-love.” I discovered that people who always fall in love never take time before they fall-out-of love again. I am very frustrated with the abuse heaped on the word “Love”. It is manipulated by the media (movies, soft sale magazines, Books on fictions) and use sloppily by nearly everyone else. Well I am not a follower of Cupid (Roman god of love) but I want to try in my own best way to set the record straight. (Someone would ask which record?) Funny Sirnoel…lol Most “Lovers” have the chemistry thing working for them but they seldom remain together long enough to explore more into each others life. It would interest you to note here that I didn’t try to define love. I think I should live that for another day. Though I didn’t define love here as you already know, however, let me tell you the things love does and what love won’t do. Please remember that there’s nothing like TRUE LOVE or FALSE LOVE. Love is Love. (Anyway this is my own opinion, you can argue it; so don’t swallow it hook, line and sinker). Before I round up this piece, you have to know that: (1) Love does not and can’t hurt. It is lack of love that hurts. (2) Love cannot be used to manipulate, if one person is manipulating another, then that’s lack of love. (3) People do not stay in abusive relationship because of love. They stay because they are scared, they believe they don’t have options or they have low self-esteem. (4) The power of love is always giving, expansive, joyful and creative. It is impossible to twist love into a negative purpose. Romans 13:10 says “Love does no harm to a neighbor.” Therefore, don’t blame love for the problems you are having in your relationships (Marriage & Courtship). The root of our (human) problems, all of our problem is lack of love. You may hardily believe this, but it is true. War is not about territory or resources or power or control, but war is of fear, and fear is a product of lack of love. My good friend, build your love, stray out of the line of fear and manipulation. Well... Source: http://mindsetshift..com/2012/11/follow-me-on-love-race.html |

Nairaland / General / Who Do I Hold Responsible? by mindsetshift: 12:28pm On Jun 24, 2015 |
Who do I hold responsible? This question has always come to my mind any time I look at myself with critical eyes. And I am sure that even you also have asked yourself this same question many times too. Who do you hold responsible for the way your life has turned out to be right now? Will you say it is because of how your parents brought you up or will you push the blame to your friends? Humans are naturally infused with the spirit of blaming others when things go wrong along the line. In the Christian Holy Book, The Bible, it is recorded that when Adam the first person created by God made a weighty mistake and God came to meet with him as usual. God didn’t see him at their normal meeting point. God tried to find out why Adam was not where he should be. Adam told him that he(Adam) ran away when he saw Him(God) coming. God asked him why? He told God that the woman He (God) gave to him deceived him (Adam) into disobeying God. This is the same being that when Adam saw her for the first time he shouted at the top of his voice and was so excited that he gave her a name without thinking about it twice. So it is a natural thing to blame someone when you didn’t get the expected result or make the expected impact. But life experience has thought me that it is only those that do things that are not very natural that become outstanding in this life. This means that before you could be able to get to where you have dreamt all along to get to; you must stop the blame game and take hold of your life and your dream. You must go the way of the unnatural men to achieve greater success in life. Steve Goodier wrote, “The day I realized that I am in charge of how I will approach problems in my life, that things will turn out better or worse because of me and nobody else, that was the day I knew I would be a happier and healthier person. And that was the day I knew I could truly build a life that matters.” Therefore to experience a better life and to experience a dream(s) come true. To be where you ought to be you must put blaming others aside and know that whatever happened, happened because you permitted it to happen. Opera Winfrey said “you are responsible for your life, you can’t keep blaming somebody else for your dysfunction.” Because you are responsible for your life you have to do what Bradley Whitford said, “ Infuse your life with action. Don't wait for it to happen. Make it happen. Make your own future. Make your own hope. Make your own love. And whatever your beliefs, honor your creator, not by passively waiting for grace to come down from upon high, but by doing what you can to make grace happen... yourself, right now, right down here on Earth.” Two points you have to mark very well in what Whiteford said; number one is “Honor your CREATOR and the second one is “by doing what you can to make grace happen.” Do not play God always remember that there is God somewhere above the sky and everywhere. Honor Him in everything you do. As much as you are asked go into action, never ever get involved with anything that is anti God. Do not look for success in a sinful way. Do not do drug. Don’t get involved in financial crime or cyber crime. There is nothing God cannot do if a man is ready to act upon God’s word. Do not stay idol waiting for grace to manifest. Go ahead and manifest the grace by doing what you have not done before. I will like to tell you this in conclusion; “the end does not justify the means.” The means justifies the end.
