If there's one thing I have learned in life, it's to stay away from highly religious people and institutions. They're the very personification of evil.

@Op is trying hard to absolve the religious group, but homosexualism seems to be a normal thing amongst them, and rape doesn't mean anything to them.

The son of the Ajuwon regional overseer's driver is repeatedly raping a boy in his street and his father is covering it up. The younger brother of the rapist is traumatized by what he witnesses and reports to their father but the man would rather scold the little boy for bringing it to his attention.

Working too much and neglecting everything else around me.

Me too.

What I want in 2021 is to reduce my working hours (including studies and personal development to 8 hours per day and 5 days per week)

Though beyond my control, I pray this bloody chronic insomnia that's held me down for many years goes!

EM123:
thank u my sister , but not in a situation where the man want to share responsibility with the wife , it doesn't make sense to share responsibility with your wife . If you are earning monthly salary and you budgeted money for monthly feeding , if the money finishes before the end on the month, your wife can take it up from there , if your children need some expensis in school and you are not around , your wife don't need to wait for you before footing the bills . For example you lost your job , your wife can sustain the family with her money till you find a new job . That is what she mean by supporting you , not spliting bills at home . What if she split home chores with you?

There's no way she can run the business and house chores. A house help may still be employed, and it's the man that would still pay the house help.

@Anoymus

You are thinking right, your wife is also thinking right..

It's all about perception.

See your new family as an enterprise and your wife as a senior manager and you the executive.

That her fashion business should be a family business, she will be the technical director while you will still be the CEO.

Let her keep her salary or renumeration, while you lead the business.

She may never agree to this. She may want to be in full control of the business.

For me, business is business, and family is family.

I will fully take care of my responsibility as the man. On the aspect of investing in her business, I will treat it as an investment. We'll both agree on the returns on my investment. If she can't agree to the investment model, she should go and source for funds for her elsewhere. There's no familiarity in business!

Nobody is talking about card anymore. Just endeavour to get your NIN. It's not hard to get.

For someone who was issued a NIN slip with the 11-digit NIN number in February 2013, what else does he do?

is the NIN issued in 2013 still active? How do I link it to my current sim cards?

studentofTruth, your view about tithes?

It's good to give, but who do you give?

Those flying jets or those in need of food?

Even Christ Himself said, "When I was HUNGRY, you feed me, and when I was WITHOUT CLOTHES, you clothed me." Now, enter the home of my father. "For whatever you do to any of these, you do unto me." (Cf Mtt 25: 35-46)



He never said when I was riding the donkey, you spread your clothes on the floor for me; therefore, enter my father's house.

The truth is that it's highly likely that Baba has dementia, which is very dangerous for someone in a decision-making position to have.

Hiding it is not in the best interest of the nation. The most honorable thing is for him to resign and let another person take over. But that's not possible in Nigeria politics.

The people around him are making the decisions, and he is taking the blame for their actions and inactions. It's a pity!

Whom God has blessed, He has blessed. Thank God for him.

But Baba, use your blessings well. Your policies are against the people, and your people are dying from insecurity and hunger.

Use "Extreme" mayonnaise, but it's extremely scarce.
If you can't find Extreme, you can go for Bama.

Sometimes i dey shame to say i come from Delta state... State with d highest allocation, no meaningful development.. yet d goat of a governor open wide mouth dey go make demands onto zamfara gold things... Shame nor catch am sef

While you hold him responsible for poor performance, he was right to ask questions about national resources in other states being controlled locally. Equity and Justice is the only way to ensure unity.

Nice one.

Baba was amazed; it must have been an engineering masterpiece.

I will love to visit Kano and Kaduna but don't know when I will have time for another tour.

Covered the most of Southern States' capitals, except Abeokuta and Yenegoa. Covered the most of North Central except Minna and Jos.

North West on my mind next.

nairavsdollars:
Just because Davido cried that he changed 1 dollar at N500, they quickly did abracadabra to being it to N470. Its going back to N600

Lol, you dey vex gaan.

It's expected that dollar will fall in December. One of the most well-recognized seasonality in USD is that it usually falls in December. One of the reasons is that people are converting to local currencies for their Christmas vacation.

I expect naira to fall to #520 or more per dollar by the end of January, unless Oil prices get significantly above $50 per barrel.

Congrats aunty. An epitome of hard work and excellence — the pacesetter. I'm really happy for you.

Hopefully, we will get there. Internet is better than gold!

Don't know about gambling, but I think both the betting managers and the friends should be investigated.

lekki1444:
truth of the matter is that no one owes you HAPPINESS because yoou succeeded.. why should any human who will not benefit in your hammering be happy for you ? that goes against human nature. like why should anyone who will not benefit be happy for you ? There can be only 2 reactions for people who will not benefit from your hammering. The first reaction is that of humane people who are spiritually awaken and that reaction is INDIFFERENCE.. thats the reaction I have when someone hammers. INDIFFERENCE. i can never be happy for you if you are not my family member. The second reaction is ANGER. thats the reaction everybody else will have who is not indifferent. what you want to pray for is that one of these angry people is not diabolical and wicked. whats my point ? NOBODY IS HAPPY ABOUT YUR SUCCESS SO KEEP THAT SHIT TO YOURSELF. YOU ARE ONLY ANGERING PEOPLE WHEN YOU BROADCAST IT AND SOON ENOUGH YOU WILL ANGER THE WRONG PERSON WHO DOESNT MIND KILLING

I had a real-life experience that confirms what you wrote here.

To my surprise, those who are physically religious manifested more anger and wickedness. Not surprised because all the times I was duped in the past were by pastors or people working closely with them.

One of the reasons I avoid those people like plague.

roteblomen:
I like this, you are a wise man who is truly spiritually awaked.

To add to your point, and even though I will never harm, hate or wish someone bad for being successful in a way that I am not, I recognize the seething discontent in me and also understand that because I do not want someone to harbor the same towards me, I will not harbor such towards other. A developed mind is the one that recognizes his/vices, train themselves not to express it, and use that anger to push themselves further. As you rightly said, the normal response when things get better for others in a way we arent is indifference.

Envy-base destruction is as old as mankind, it is part of the core that makes up human nature. From the biblical story of Cain and Abel, Esau and Jacob, Saul and David, Leah and Rachel, to name a few, envy will flourish destructively if an individual hasn't admitted to himself that he is capable of inflicting harm to the subject of their envy and that they will enjoy doing it. And for that, I have stopped completely to announce my success to anyone except those that I know will benefit from it. The worse part of being successful is finding someone who is truly happy for your success. Also, it is insecure people that derive esteem boost by announcing their success to the less succesful, and the price to pay for that is high.

Being civilized is the mask humans wear to hide their true primal nature, and for one to be properly grounded in life, they will have to integrate their shadow (recognize their vices and not be a slave to it) to their being, which will bring less chaos to the world. My regards.

You just echoed what I said in one thread: keep your success and failures to yourself. Pray to marry the right woman who can share in your success and failures — she's the only one you can tell about what's going on in your life because your life is hers too.

CruzJoe:
Lesson for all

No one should even know what is going on in your life. Trust no one.

Achieve Financial success through creativity:

Enterprising people always see the future in the present. Enterprising people always find a way to take advantage of a situation, not be burdened by it. And enterprising people aren't lazy. They don't wait for opportunities to come to them, they go after the opportunities.

Enterprise means always finding a way to keep yourself actively working toward your ambition. Enterprise is two things. The first is creativity. You need creativity to see what's out there and to shape it to your advantage. You need creativity to look at the world a little differently. You need creativity to take a different approach, to be different. What goes hand-in-hand with the creativity of enterprise is the second requirement: the courage to be creative. You need courage to see things differently, courage to go against the crowd, courage to take a different approach, courage to stand alone if you have to, courage to choose activity over inactivity.

Lastly, being enterprising doesn't just relate to the ability to make money. Being enterprising also means feeling good enough about yourself, having enough self worth to want to seek advantages and opportunities that will make a difference in your future. And by doing so you will increase your confidence, your courage, your creativity and your self-worth, your enterprising nature.
As the year gradually comes to an end, be determined more than ever, to unleash your creativity and achieve financial success!

Thank you bro. I find this encouraging.

To add to it:

The courage to withstand the verbal and sometimes physical attacks that will come your way for daring to do things differently.
The courage to ignore all self-doubts that'll arise from slow progress.

Slurity:
You are among the people that really noticed the cause of our really problem. I have this opportunity to analysis this problem on radio sometimes in 2012 during my NYSC 1 year service with Efcc. I want you to know that Nigeria real problems are not corruption or unemployment and bad government as many people think, no it is not the primary problem, all the problem I listed above are secondary, they are caused by the real primary problem. The number one and primary problem of Nigeria is poverty CAUSED BY IGNORANCE. Your topic of lack of birth control is the ultimate number 1 of our ignorance. I will leave you to do this little research by yourselve. Compare Nigeria population in 1960 when we got independent with Britain's population that freed us that year. Compare the two countries population now and compare the rate of jump. Now try to understand that we are poor in Nigeria because we are too many to share few resources of wealth, then because we are too much to compete for few we become more greedy and desperate, this greed and desperation gave birth to corruption. Simple math

Sure

Thank you for this

CoachOore:
Why not introduce the business to him? We are selfish in this part of the world! Some are wicked than the govt. Any profitable business guys will never disclose unless they want to steal the little u have with pdf and fake training!

Some people are dangerous. Be careful how you introduce people to your business before they ruin it for you.

Moreover, when you teach freely, they say you are arrogant. Humans don't value what they get for free. I used to be vehemently against those pay to learn arrangements/courses, but these days, I don't judge those who do it.

Deathissweet:
I understand that brokenness doesn’t have respect for anybody, meanwhile that is why you need to plan well before getting married or giving birth.

I shouldn’t be posting this but since I am not including anybody’s name, I don’t think I am doing something wrong.

I relocated to a new state few months ago so I have decided to make friends with matured foks because most guys of my age (30yrs ) here are yahoo boys. I am not judging anyone but at least I shouldn’t be painted bad in a new town.

There’s this guy I gave a ride in my estate last 2 month. He’s married with 3 kids. Ever since I gave him a ride. He has been disturbing me with calls to ask for money to the extend that any time I give him a ride and he sees money in my car. He will take it then ask for permission, every time we see. He always complain bitterly as if I don’t have my own problems too.

A lot of cases like that. The one he did last really pained me cox I gave him all my last card. He called me early in the morning that he wanted to see me. I was in the bathroom when he knocked. He brought in 2 of his kids early Monday momo, he started with his complains as usual and said there’s nothing for them to eat this morning that I should give him anything. I gave him all the cash I had and foods stuffs then he left.

A lot of cases like that from different people but that is not the point ...the point is inside this same hardship and all. This guy gave birth to his 3rd born. Even me that has a business, cars and my own house. I haven’t even reason giving birth yet.

Please I want to know what exactly motivate this people to start bringing up innocent children to come and suffer. I think this is what the government should regulate (giving birth ) not social media.

The one and only answer to your question is POVERTY. Sex is the only "enjoyment" a poor man can get.

I had a similar experience as yours. You will soon become his worst enemy should he come the day you are not boxed and you tell him "you don't have."

I had another experience where someone I gave 5k for his child's naming ceremony (which I wasn't even invited), and the wife was of the impression that it's too small (because they thought they knew my income status based on one of my profiles they saw online) and started organizing a gang against me.

Becareful how you relate with some people, they can be extremely dangerous.

I hope so.

I heard from an elderly person that the prayers intending couples should pray is this:
For the man: Ask God for His appointed woman for u and watch out for a lady who has similar aspirations, beliefs and purpose in life as you.
For the woman: Ask God also for His appointed man for you, a man who will love you as Christ loves the church. Also watch out for a man with similar beliefs, aspirations and purpose in life as you.

You pray all the prayers and know the qualities you are looking for, but the problem is that all the women that tick those boxes you meet are either married or in serious relationships. What do you do?

baby124:
If it’s so hard then, you are the problem. Whether physically, emotionally or mentally. They are running from you for a reason. Check yourself and change.

It's nearly impossible to find an intelligent and beautiful woman who is without a man in her life. Some of us don't believe in woman snatching! That's where they difficulty lies

Extremely hard o. Seriously searching. Wahala for an introvert who needs a loyal better half.
