The not creating of jobs by the Govt, is a product of its not functionality at the expense of "privatization" dictum misunderstood in this part of the world. |
Any conventional maintenance program, must take responsibility to carrying out equipment task until it break or reaches its maintenance date. And such responsibility must be centered on preventive maintenance task. Some of the actions expected in the performance of maintenance Task are as follows;- 1. Must be able to detect abnormalities and improve on it in any equipment. 2. Must understand the function and component of the equipment and able to detect the abnormalities. 3. Must recognize possible quality issues and identify their causes. Adequate maintenance task should be able to provide fast and reliable trouble shooting in a certain number of failure cases. The best way to impact this knowledge is through training of an entire methodical program. Such that whenever the failure requires an intervention, everyone will be disposed to work as a team. And this tends to optimize the easy tracing of the encountered fault as it help the team to provide the best trouble shooting solution. Maintenance Education state with the five steps;- 1. Storage with elimination of unnecessary things. 2. Orderliness with procedure of work. 3. Cleanliness with respect for others. 4. Discipline with Moral behavior. The initial cleaning of any equipment before task is essential for high quality maintenance. And all members must be involved in cleaning and the surroundings. The purpose is to ensure that the equipment performance is fully restored by identifying and eliminating all signs of deterioration of the equipment. INSPECTION & MONITORING;-The basic Equipment inspection must not be overlook, because such implementation is not laborious. It requires simple task like;- Checking lubrication levels, Location of any leaks, Tightening loose bolts, Identifying possible cracks & Wears. And performing mechanical adjustments.

A strong work ethic is vital to a company achieving its goals. Every employee, from the CEO to entry-level workers, must have a good work ethic to keep the company functioning at its peak. A work ethic is a set of moral principles an employee must imbibe in his job. Certain factors come together to create a strong work ethic. INTEGRITY: - Integrity stretches to all aspects of an employee’s job. An employee with integrity fosters trusting relationships with clients, coworkers and supervisors. Coworkers value the employee’s ability to give honest feedback. Client trust the employees advice. Supervisors rely on the employee’s high standards and trusting him not to steal from the company to create any problem. SENSE OF RESPONSIBILITY: - A strong sense of responsibility affects how an employee works and the amount of work he/she does. When the employee feels personally responsible for his / her job performance, he / she shows up on time, puts in her best effort and completes the task assigned to the best of he/her ability. EMPHASIS ON QUALITY: - Some employees do only the bare minimum, just enough to keep their job intact. Employees with strong work ethic care about the quality of their work. They do their best to produce great work, not merely churn out what is needed. The employees’ commitment to quality improves the company’s overall quality standard. DISCIPLINE: - It takes a certain level of commitment to finish any tasks assigned every day. An employee with good discipline stays focused on his goals and is determined to complete his assignments. These employees show a high level of dedication to the company, always ensuring they do their part. SENSE OF TEAM WORK: - Most employees have to work together to meet the company’s objectives. An employee with a high sense of team work helps the team meet up with its goals and objective to deliver quality work. The employees respect their peers and help them where they need assistance thereby making collaboration move smoother than expected. [b][/b]Therefore, transformation requires meaningful motivation, personal commitment and self discipline. Hence, let your connection to your heart inspires others to delve deeper to match your honesty and integrity. Read more on;--https://philoedu2017..com/ |
The definition of Maintenance is a combination of action carried out to restore in any equipment, to its normal working condition. There are two set of maintenance which is –Proactive and Reactive Maintenance. (1.) On the one hand is –the Predictive Maintenance and Preventive Maintenance which is the proactive maintenance (2.) Then the Corrective Maintenance which is a reactive Maintenance. Therefore, the four Maintenance philosophy and strategies are;- (1) Preventive Maintenance – The type of Maintenance carried out regularly before any major break down to restore any equipment back to its normal working condition. (2.) Predictive Maintenance-carried out before it is actually necessary after a careful examination or inspection of any equipment.-(through diagnostic method). (3) Corrective Maintenance- the type of maintenance carried out after the break down of any equipment called -rectro-active strategy system of maintenance (4) Reliability-Centro-Maintenance –the type of maintenance that involved the improvement programme in the cost –effective and technically feasible approach. It also comes to utilize a systematic structured approach based on the consequences of any failure. THE FOUR (4)-LIKELY CONSEQUENCES OF POOR MAINTENANCE. (1) –Reduced production Capacity.- This is when the Assets tends to perform under-expected target of which the consequence is down-time. (2.)- Increase Production cost- This is when the real cost and opportunity cost increases due to asset not performing in its optimal level. (3)- Low quality Product & services- This is when we have customer dissatisfaction that could result to lost of sales and costumers in the process. (4)- Safety Hazard- that implies failure leading to injuries and finance and even lost of life in the process. SOME WAYS TO OVERCOME THESE PROBLEMS These problems can be partially overcome through Schedule inspections and monitoring programmed to assist in optimizing the planned maintenance intervals. Through a structure like method called –Checklist- through which consistent information about the actual condition of the equipment is known. A designed out maintenance method to eliminate high cost due to poor engineering design and maintenance practices or operation of a system outside its design-specification.

It must be emphasized, that we must make no mistake, not to be aware that the mind often choose to wonder on its own accustomed affair, uncontrolled and unoccupied objectively with unceasing restlessness with every passing matter of interest of no enduring value. And this is the moment of taking our responsibility to make a choice of difference through the intrinsic feeling to overcome any wasteful activity as we strive to confine our thought to a well-defined channel of expression of a higher purpose. And the mind must always ready to heed to this point of adjustment [b][/b] to take a determined stance to maintain and registered a new idea, as the inner personality is compelled under discipline to impose its nature of virtue. This judgment within is one of the singular reasons we must to take seriously the opposing factors in the constituent and complexity of man in terms of self-discipline. However, self-cognition no doubt, brings reflection of not the happiest kind, and of cause, the problem of the skillful adjustment toward the expansion of consciousness for the sake of humility will never be fully understood in the life of man. It must be added that humility has to do with idiosyncrasy; an unusual feature in man, that take time to develop through which man realize his true strength and beauty of mental actions created after the law of a spiritual man. Until such realization, we remains at the mercy of the mind that reign over us with such authority of a tyrant and arrogance of which man has being so obedient to involved himself that has resulted to a painful living with uncertainty and confusion. The sense of humility, no doubt, would reverse the condition of affair, as we consciously and deliberately reverse the very imposition of the will of self upon the activity of the spiritual faculty not without a marked result. Therefore, I submit that we must not lose our belief in the firmness of discipline, and also to tends to live blindly among men, when there is need to do so, as if you did not recognize them, to save yourself of the feeling of humiliation, because often, life is pleasant to watch, and its play must be well acted; for in the world of today good actors are still being needed. It must be emphasized that Christian humility in particular demands that we are aware of the distance between what we can accomplish at the moment and the splendor of the future that God has prepared. The awareness of such distance rightly or wrongly understood does not in any way cripple the will of man to act at any given moment. It is indeed, the awareness of this distance between the promised future of the kingdom of God with peace and the current situation of things that can really provide the stimulus required to transform our current situations. It is the hope for the peaceful future of the kingdom promised that must supply us the wings of imagination and the will to act at any given moment in practical term, in spite of the insidiousness and inadequacy. However, we seems not to be aware that we are animal of rational type with certain specific identity, of weakness and of strength, of which, although, with the mind of blank-sheet, of which anything can be written. It is also true that as an individual, we have the right to alter whatever is written in our mind at any given moment, to come to terms with some of the basic set of instructions as given by God, of which we must not ignore at our own peril.

In the Gospel of Luke 14; 11, it said that-“everyone who exalt himself will be humbled and the one who humbled himself will be exalted”. Humility in Christian perspective is the true measure of knowledge of God, and therefore, any true Christian, no matter how desirable and great in his intellect, humility remains one of the elements that must stand out in our practical life. In fact, there is a saying that it takes but a moment to be baptized, but a decade to become a Christian. This is could be true, because conversions come to depend very much on the grace we receive in our prayer life through love and services, and in other word, faith without work is nothing. For those of us believers, it is not, overstatement to say that it is out of humility, that Jesus wash the feet of his disciples, of which the disciples may not have understood at the time. Therefore, humility has its root from a plane outside of our everyday thought and observations. It is probably the singular reason, the ordinary consciousness of man, almost refuse to sanction due to the intrinsic feeling of humiliation that we often witness as a conflict, to embrace the gesture of humility. The same is true, it has become the very testing ground, and a moment that bring us face to face to the awareness of divinity that overshadow human consciousness at any given time. Of cause, it is the moment of our heart surrender to the beneficent prompting that tends to upset any preconceived ideas, thought and actions. In fact, it is one of the reasons of the outright rejection of what looks like a refused limitation and pride of the intellectual self in the falsification of reason that only very few are willing and able to spare any comprehensive spirit upon its culture. The same is true, because it has the nature of a forbidden fruit, and opposed to what is unpopular, firmly established and highly prized commodity in the journey from a plane outside man himself. It must be emphasized that humility is one of the supreme value of virtue, being misunderstood, but remain a value of virtue in the consciousness and imperatively demanded in the life of man. Because it unlock the very spirit of God in everyone as it unfold the sense of higher value of oneness and love, “in the love your neighbor as yourself” dictum. The same is true, that through humility, multitude of anxieties, worries and perturbations that held undisputed hitherto, sway in the soul of man, can no doubt, be let loose in the soul of the tyranny as they give way in the life of man at any given time . Of cause, it is often but a mistake to assume that humility stand the chance to forsake the arena of personality, to the extent, of denying the interplay of the forces therein, but on the contrary, it stand the very chance of a renew spirit and power of self-direction with wisdom and insight with the ability to harmonize any opposing vibration of love and pride at any given moment in the life of man. Humility is the catalyst of a tangible element of a true conversion and feasible to truly lived Christian life of love. The true conversion through which we can begin to pay attention to the ordinary people and to listen to the cry of the less privilege individual among us. But make no mistake, it is an insidious adjustment to make at any given time, but man have all what it take to do it, because our creator could not recommend what is beyond our confine human acceptance. Any adjustment in the human acceptance, must start from the mind with a renew focused not without admirable effort in the adaptation to control the mind out of distraction but of the possible attitude of disobedience and of resentment prevalent around us.

Really a nation that cannot feed itself is a nation punching below her weight, of cause, will definitely be short of idea and probably not be able to think and reflect over her gains and loses, like the current situation that the average African states find themselves. May God bless Nigeria. |

I just wish Eynia the very best of support, and my prediction is that the job is hers. Congratulation. |
A hefty congratulations to Oba of Benin and the people of Edo State for this singular stride to tell our history in our own perspective that has so much been subjected to much distortion. |
This is what might be called '-African enigma, it just like in medicine, we have all type from every conner of the globe to our Country, yes they are just- Medicine but when we get African cocotion mix up of whatever means or ways , we call "-Alternative Medicine, now the question is why is - alternative? , medicine is medicine inrespective of who made it. I think African need to school their mind and recognized who they really are in the first place before anyone can take them seriously..l remain Afro- Optimist, no matter what any one says about Africans. |

The power of Attitude can be found in (Proverb 23; 6-7) of which it can make us or break us, and can heal us or hurt us. The same is true, that it can make us friends or can make us enemies. It can make us happy or miserable or make us a success or a failure in the journey of life. It is also true, that often times, the whole world stinks, but however, there is a narratives that says, about the cranking grandpa, who lay down to take a nap. But to have a little fun, the grandson has to put some Limburger cheese on his mustache, just right under his nose. But when grandpa finally wake up, he shouted as loud as he could, -“the whole house stink !. He could not stop there; he shouted more loudly, the whole world stinks. But you know what the truth is, that it was grandpa who stunk or who is stinking. Simply because the problem was right under his nose. The same is true, that when we think or feel that things in life stunk, the problem is not with the world or others but right within us, due to our attitude that has become so negative. Because the moment we change our attitude to negative the whole world stinks but when we have a positive attitude, the whole world changes and no longer stinks. Now, how important is our attitude? Really, our attitude is more important than facts, circumstances, and what other may say about us at given time. The same is true, it is more important than our past, than our education and money. But we must understand that our attitude is much deeper than just a few of our thought or what we might think. Because our attitude comes from the very core of our being and it represent our disposition, our outlook and indeed, our character. This is because, our attitude often reveals who we really are according to (Proverb 23; 7) “For as man thinks in his heart, so he is… (NKJV). It is self-evidence that it is not always easy when the stuff of life take a knock on us and to even kick one in the stomach. But at any such time, we must remember that there is nothing that any type of situation can take away from you, and that is the power to choose your own attitude any given moment . The very idea to blame our bad attitude on others or on a difficult circumstance is but a false claim and lame excuse. The truth is that we must be on guide not to allow any event and people to cause us to put up with a negative attitude, otherwise, we only hurt ourselves the more with the effect and misery our bad attitude may bring with it. And make no mistake, that the awesome power to manipulate or choose our attitude of which our values play a role , is always the first thing in our disposition at any given moment .

It is clear there are varieties of definition for attitude, which seems to center around the notion that evolves measuring of people, issues and objects etc. This measurement often center on two components which are cognitive and affective - (values and beliefs). Our values and beliefs is a combination of cognitive component. And these components often give us a long range, or persistent measurement for dealing with the environment we find ourselves. (Bootzin, 1983). By values, we mean the ideas about the worth and importance of concept, things and people that emanate from personal beliefs system. As it were, value is one of the components of attitude, because it assists to determine how individual will act to weigh the importance of various alternatives. And indeed, individual of whatever categories have different level of attitude that can be accessed through involvement in the performance of any assigned responsibility at any given time. Therefore, an attitude tends to pave the way for behavioral action which ultimately can influence productivity to enhance a viable development. It is also true that attitude and productivity tends to be studied to have being found to have various factors responsible for some level of relationship. It is argued that attitude tends to be favorable when some level of affection, recognition, friendliness and freedom are allowed to enhance productivity. [b][/b] But where this is ignored, there emanate a low moral with low productivity that may becomes the common theme, although, may not be outwardly put on display but may remain a hindrance. The same is true that any unfavorable attitude can also result to a poor relationship with lack of recognition, inequality, undeveloped and insecurity. It must be emphasized that any individual with lack of satisfaction in an environment could be as a result of lack of ethical value and standard that may inhibit some level of attitude detrimental to productivity and development. It is also true, that when productivity and development are adversely affected, any form of advancement with aim and objective could also come to suffer. It is pertinent to note that favorable or unfavorable ethical values, as the case maybe, must have some lay down procedures and standard, to establish the guideline of conduct, attitude and behavior in the system. Therefore, the successes of any system or society come to depend to a large extent of the attitudinal factor towards increasing productivity and development. Of cause, self -discipline is called into question here, because it assists in developing certain principle in guiding the individual feelings, conduct and behavior, and indeed, thought habit along the process. The result that emanate from such process is often self control, self reliance and self determination that ultimately stimulate individuals in the sustenance of the necessary drive in taking a positive decision towards achieving the set objective at any given time. Because lack of any self discipline and self confidence often have the consequence of negative disposition and distressing thought with lack of enthusiasm and ultimately, an adverse effect of low self esteem, productivity and advancement. Therefore, we need to submit and admit, that self-discipline cannot be transferred and instilled overnight, but of a gradual process. But it must be a process of a learning culture explicated and epitomized by those who may care in the very promotion of a strong and viable relationship and commitment in the advancement and development of a society they also belong. We gain the knowledge of these things through the context (experiences) and understanding; the context we are able to weave together the various relationships of our experiences. And of cause, the greater the understanding of the subject matter, the more we are able to weave our past experiences (context) into a new knowledge in absorbing , doing, reflecting and interacting with others.

Nigerian problem stern from the very fact that we as nation fail to pay attention to the basics, be it economic, politics and what have you. Simply because, we flops every rules and regulations of ethics and moral of which other nations hold so dearly to regulate the most basic system that tells so much in the life of ordinary people. We must never fail to pray for Nigeria, such that those who are holding the key for Nigerian's development and up- liftement , would not be the one to assist to look for the same key, in Jesus Name - Amen. |

[b][/b]The problem of modern man is the inability to rethink for a change of heart that must take place from inside-out for self - reorientation. It consists in a shift from the limited practical reason to what might be called the wholeness of reasons that include the intelligible with the experimentally verifiable and a balanced with his spiritual nature. This is not without the material aspect of life that must be balanced with the well being of man’s existence. This is true, that with the advantage of technology man should no doubt, have being in greater advantage of the inherent freedom and dignity to enhance the future. Therefore, the first step in healing of the wounds and divisions in the society of our time is through the very healing of the wound and division within man himself because charity begins at home. And this is the very drama of existence of man that is affecting the whole lot of society as a result of man’s total disregard of the very sense and awareness of the transcendence and to say the least in what lies outside himself because God is wholly transcendent. Because there is a complete lack of the sense of wholeness through which man is connected which is the very core of life. And in the replacement of the concept of material aspect as the only embracing basis for a better life which is but a distortion of the concept of life. But make no mistake, that such material aspect has to do with progress is absolutely undeniable. The same is true that, it is as a result of the misuse of this misunderstanding that is the root of the problem of modern man. But he must solve or perish as a victim of his uncontrolled and dehumanized mental agility with the inability to balance the shift of this reality. Because, man must be able to distinguish between the vast possibilities and virtue of this inherent material and the fantasies attributed to it with the neglect of the basics of the spiritual aspect of life. Of course, the modern man has being endow the capacity to consistently strive to rediscover through his conscience that which is the light that connect him with the transcendence or Being. It is often through such connection he can harmonize his life to contribute meaning fully to balance the spiritual and material well-being of mankind. This is true because, the knowledge of this reality is the very basis of freedom and morality. In the light of this modern discrepancies, unless there is a redefinition of community life and accept the code of ethic based not on science but on the very belief system of the sacredness of human life. It must be emphasized that the knowledge that basic to ethic is the knowledge of true love with substance of the very force that hold all mankind together irrespective of the ethnic background, class or creed. The class or creed rooted in the I -and thou-relationship that extends to embrace the divinity. But we must not lose sight of this redefinition of the misunderstood concepts of the collective well-being of the community life. An effort must be gear towards the pursuance of the objective of the belief in the very principle and in defense of ethical standard and tradition with principle, otherwise, it might be difficult if not impossible to avoid being at the verge of unbearable point. [b][/b]Because, all through the evolutionary journey of man, it self-evidence, of the apprehension of the true nature of man that concede that man’s basic desire is to be with God. The same is true that the spirit of man may flicker like amber in the wind, but it cannot be put off. And this should give us enough confidence in man’s evolutionary journey of existence for whatever his up and down. Read more on;- -https://philoedu2017..com/ |
There has always been area of conflict across the globe which has always been about one religion against the other claiming to be the true word of God. The reality is that everyone is serving God through their own way and method they know best on this planet Earth. This has persisted from Christianity to Islam, from Buddhism to Hindu to even to the tribal belief system of the most remote forest and mountain. As matter of fact, there are those who come close to the truth in their simple acceptance of God in themselves and in their leaving. It must be said that all consciousness is connected and all human beings are connected to one another and to God. This is true not only for Earth, but also in the far away planet and stars of the Cosmos, all is one; all is God who is Love. The guidelines we need is the simple lesson to leave in –kindness, Harmony, Solidarity, Compassion, Forgiveness, Joy and Love with one another. Among these, is loves that expand the heart and mind to bring Joy to all who experience it. Because when there is no effect, it is not loves because God is love, the Prime Creator, and unending Love and leave no space for Judgment, Vindictiveness or blame. Therefore, any myriad of difficulties we might be experiencing in life on Earth is always but a project seen throughout the Cosmos because of the connections. It is highly respected endeavor, like the Olympic of soul growth and much desired opportunity at any given time. The opportunity of a life time and privilege seen as a highly prized test of a mettle of Resilience, Stamina and Faith and we are asked only to respect life as an opportunity to experience it as a gift and use it accordingly. There is no reason for any inflicted guilt and regret due to any choice we may have made at any given moment. What is important is that we can always turn to the light to Love to achieve Salvation, but all in our accord. In this perspective, it simply mean we have to reconnect to our heart, we may have tends to disconnected, to come face to face with the Dark Hart, by our own choice and preference. Whenever we choose to reconnect, we are always welcome back to the fold with the desire to be in the light. It must be understood that human life is valued as the great plan of Soul Ascension, which is not an end in itself because there is no end. The soul Ascension is seen as housed temporarily in the body we accepted to carry through a life time. Therefore, we are part and parcel of the challenge of gender, environmental conditions we experience on Earth by our higher-self driving our sojourn in the higher dimension. It must be understood also that due to the first law of the Universe laid down by the prime Creator, we have the capacity to work out the solution of pains, suffering and challenges we may face on Earth. Because it is understood that once this life time is over, the pains and suffering is gone and serves only as a memory. Because Salvation means relief from Delusion, Darkness, Anguish and Pain and Ascension to a higher level of consciousness which is the goal of the Soul in the Cosmos.

Humon as we are all aware is present in every culture or groups and its context also varies across culture as well. The same is often true, that Jokes do not often translate into what we expect, due to differences in social structure and cultural norms. Often, there is no universally accepted manner of Joke, and the same is true that what is funny in one culture may not be amusing in another culture, - according Michelle Brenner, (2016). It may not be necessary to move to another country to have a taste of a cross cultural experience, because in today world, our home, work and school and shopping mole are all –contexts of diverse cultures. Cross cultural management is taught in business as well as management schools but not in international market arena, but in relation to managing teams within any organization. Often, culture evolves from like-minded groups or individuals as a shared values and experiences. It is true we have common share history with meaning, but often we do taken for granted, that which evolve into a complex culture. It is also true that to mediate between two conflicting groups, it is not always necessary to know the in-and-out of all the cultures as to be able to act as mediator. Because it is a part of our business to know of the very dynamic of culture, context, and communication, as well as how this impact on conflicts. Therefore, the key to cross cultural communication is through the dynamic of directional awareness, of whether the communication is moving toward constructive or destructive direction. For instance, when a communication is moving towards a destructive direction, take a breath and see if the cultural differences in meaning is been overlooked and at what level from one party as seen as critical factor by the other party. It must be observed that often, there is culture shock in crises of knowing that one is shocked into unexpected different awareness. This is always the moment one may feel out –of depth and aware that something is terribly wrong. Then comes the culture stress which is a term used to describe the overload of information which occurs as we relate to a new culture. But culture stress is more of a long term adaptation. In order to communicate in comfort, we must communicate and relate to be taken for granted with a sense of knowing and been known, which does not required a lot of attention. It is often true that when there is ongoing attention and awareness, it required to grasp what is really taken place or happening to avoid being unable to just take for granted the meaning, because of being met with dissonance or finding ourselves in the cold. The period of adaptation required information processing that may be stressful like -“an air traffic controller” (ref. -M. Brenner). According to Anthropologist Edward T.Hall-(1951-1955), - “what one pays attention to and what one does not attend to is largely a matter of context”…And contextual awareness is developed through culture. According to him- “Almost everyone has difficulty believing that the behavior they have, is always associated with human nature, but is not with human nature at all but a learned behavior”- Opcit. And according to Darley and Bateson, 1973, “context determines human behavior more than personality”. This same is true because being in hurry is often the very reason to walk past a person lying on the pavement without caring, which means the context of being in a hurry is the reason rather than a personality who is not caring.

Language and linear thinking do not often reflect what is in the mind and heart of the speaker. But language is linear by nature, according to the biology of our brains in networking. By nature we take in information in context, in order to fully understand what is happening around us. But it is our culture that determine to what level this information is critical and meaningful to be ignored or taken seriously. The only way to understanding things in general term is through the framework of context, which is the meaning and situational pattern that encompass any circumstances. What we must always pay attention to is the context and information overload that are so related. Because in some culture, the context may not be important as far as driving the meaning is concerned, of which what is important, is the information, written or spoken word only and what it refers to in meaning. According to Iian McGilchrist, in the divided brain, our physiology is designed for both high and low contextual perceptions, which is based on our culture, but developed one more than the other. In modern culture, there is a growing habit all over the world that tends to engage in low context social media technology. And how this is affecting the brain and society with much reliance on the development of low context communication without being balanced in the brain or society of high context will ever remain a problem. The contextual information must always be valued and processed as the requirement for understanding what might be said or not said in the future. It is the context that is feeding the meaning of the word, because context is a hidden language, through the neuroscience being understood through spreading or (contagion) emotions. For instance when you yawn, it makes me yawn. According to Donald Hebb, a Neuropsychologist, “neurons that fire together, wire together”. This simply means, the more we use our brain, the more it becomes a habit and a comfort zone. The same is true, when we get use to the habit of mixing and communication in a high context cultures, our brain will also get use to drawing meaning from context. But if we are used to communication in a low context culture, we cannot be turning into the context to understand what is being communicated, because those neurons that do not fire together cannot wire together. In other word, it is a process and continuum between high context and low context cultures, of which High context cultures draw its meaning and interpretation from context that surround an interactions or events. But Low context culture, on the other hand draws its meaning from information only that is just present. However, it must be observed that no culture ignores high or low context except that they often tends to give higher or lesser values to them. [b][/b]High context communication requires a greater degree of knowing the others, with greater degree of relationship development which is critical to understanding one another, of which any reliance only on verbal linear communication is limited. Cross culture is an opportunity to discover and grow, with the down side, of which is conflict. The cross culture with support around growth and discovery could lead to beauty and with what the Chinese come to called-“The Art of Being Muddle” of which the differences could create a whole. It is true that by nature, human beings are created with the capacity to read and draw meaning from context. This is because certain level of context is necessary for effective communication, although, culture varies and to a certain degree of developed attention to value of context.

For the sake of knowledge, I wish to explicate the difference between Character and Attitude, simply because, often we tends to make use of this two concept as if they mean the same thing. However, whatever the similarity in their uses through their definitions, we should be able to understand them in clear term. That said, there are values and principles we tends to overlook and take for granted and yet , they tends to affect how we handle situation and approach other people around us. These values are rooted from how and where we are brought up that often have a telling effect on these two concept called -character and attitude, that tends to vary from one individual to others. As human being, we have something called-“innate”-an inbuilt trait that comprises our entire being called –“essence. The same is true; we have our individual “identity” peculiar and unique to our individuality, in the sense that it is our being –inside-out. It must be observed, however, that character is innate of which an identity of any individual is obtainable through education and right value system. Character is innate in every individual because it cannot be changed but it tends to shape our upbringing. It also tends to influence certain behavior as we do things we did not intend to do, but we still do anyway, simply because that is our character. The same is true, that often it makes us to do things right or wrong but based on our value system and adopted principles. Such value system and principles that often cannot be subjected to easy change because that is our character and who we are beyond our appearance. The character of anyone can easily be identified but cannot easily be changed. But unlike attitude we can chose to change it at any given time unlike character that will take a long time to change because it is rooted on value system good or bad. Character therefore is our identity that makes us a peculiar individual that cannot be compared to others in its uniqueness. Attitude on the other hand is always a choice we often make to address issue or approach any situation to show what we want and how we want certain things based on our individual experience. Attitude changes based on situation and environment as we strive to adjust to fit into what is obtainable at any given moment. It also tends to determine of how we chose to handle and approach situation and people around us. In a nutshell, attitude may show what a person want, but character do not care what a person want, but the quality of which a person lived by. The same is true attitude cannot easily be figure out in any individual, because it is subject to constant adjustment. This is so due to the prevailing environmental indioysicracy, and may take time to figure out an attitude in any individual. Some of the good character that enhances any value system are-Courage, Patience, Honesty, Integrity, Respect, Humility and Obedience etc. The same is true that some bad character called vices are- Falsehood, Dishonesty, Disloyalty and impersonation and Procrastination etc. Because character is what make up our entire identity, Roy T Bennett, opined that “when you take control of your attitude, you invariably take control of your life” simply because the right value and education makes up a great character. It is worth emphasizing that- Character is more on identity in its uniqueness while Attitude is on how we approach situation and people. Character is built through education while Attitude through our experience. Character cannot easily be changed but Attitude can be changed at any given time. Character can easily be observed because it surface through individual while Attitude can hardly be figure out in any individual because it is subject to constant manipulation any given time.
