TRAVELING IN NIGERIA BY ROAD

As road travel is common means of transportation especially for the youth and able bodied here are some tips for a safer trips

Sleep well enough the previous night.

sleep they say is the reset button of the body and is important to obey when our body gives us the signal. research has even shown it that most solution of a problem come from sleep. I for one can testify to that. there was a particular stage in a video game l couldn't just pass. what did I do? that night,in my sleep, l discovered possible ways to defeat the boss. when l woke up, it was like a miracle. so,sleep is important. before embarking on that long journey give your body enough sleep,if you don't,you might wake up weak,stiff muscled and unmotivated. it is good to wake up on a high note mentally and physically.


Trusted transport company

Nigeria right now is littered with diverse transport companies. some going extinct while many are undergoing Reformation because of the ever changing society and demands of people. make sure you trust the transport company you want to travel with. where there is no trust relationships frost. you might be asking how do I find transport company that is trustworthy? it is simple. check out their departure times. do they keep to time? are their services considerable? are you paying higher than what they can deliver?avoid transport companies dominated by agberos; where you do not know who or who that is actually running affairs. there are notable transport companies but I will not mention their names. why? they did not pay for advertisement.

COMFORT

Traveling by road in Nigeria can be pretty frustrating especially if the spot you are sitting is not comfortable at all. most people until now do know how to choose sitting positions in a bus(not big luxurious buses). well lucky you. this article is for you. normally the two front seats are more like luxurious spots for any traveller. apart from the fact that you will be away from other travellers,your comfort is assured 100% except maybe you and the driver are not in good terms. That one is entirely your own Problem. They are numbered 1and 2 in your ticket. No 2 sit close to the window so you have to be ready to wear seatbelt.
Now, Nigeria like carrying load,it is in our blood,in fact if there is no load they will postponed the journey, that is a enough reason you should board a bus with good policy.

Safeguard your belongings.

Nigerians love to show off,it is part of us, so always be observant and conscious of the various gadget you are carrying with you. People have lost valuables because of carelessness. Do not keep your phone on your laps for those of you that can sleep like dry wood will not know when it falls off and before you know a cracked screen or something else will happen treat your valuables with love.


Watch what you eat.

This one is one of the critical part on every journey on Nigerian road. Food is always number one and Nigerian can vouch for that. Some of us can eat. My God! When I say eat, I mean every senses of it. Some people the journey has not even started their mouth has started moving. Anything that pass they must buy well I do not blame those set of people because evidently the money is there. But control is essential. Most people do not know their body system, what to eat ,what not to eat, some eat chemical reaction calling it food and before you know the family product call running stomach will come knocking and cries of driver stop will began thereby.

1. Functional foot wares.


As you already know shoes are the most important aspect of your wardrobe. They are the first things people notice they speak louder than your words.

Wearing the wrong shoe for a great outfit totally kills the look you are trying to go for. So, picking the right shoe is very important.
Your loafer can be paired with jeans,chino and slack. And if you don't want to go for the classic oxford and derby ,wearing casual dress shoe, Loafer,monk strap or classic boots such as chukka boots , Chelsea boots will elevate your look.

Brown Chelsea boots are a good style option,although they are not serious as black Chelsea boots,its look really great with jeans.

You can never go wrong with the right accessories,why not invest with them as well?
They are a great way to distinguish you from others.


2. A powerful wrist watch.

You don't need a very expensive wrist watch especially if you are a budding entrepreneur whose net worth isn't in the range of 8 to 9 figures yet.
A simply and affordable smart watch will go with your look any day, Any time! You can comfortable pair a smart watch with your business or business casual outfit and still look like a true stylish boss that you are.

3. A classy pair of glasses.


Glasses are everything you may want to reject this piece of an item because of the general belief that glasses make you appear geeky.
This is a misconception because glasses make you really smart .As a modern day entrepreneur,you will always fine yourself in front of a computer screen therefore you will need a protective eyewear to protect your eyes from the light emitted from your screen which can damage your eye in a long run.

nice one, we could use your skills

Things like this dont reach fp

We are of the opinion that there should be a separate category for entrepreneurship topics on Nairaland. This is an appeal to the moderators and admin, Seun of nairaland.

A category that is strictly on entrepreneurship topics will favour lots of Nigerians since a large percent of young Nigerians are headed that part.

Topics like

- Starting your own business

- Entrepreneurs hacks

- Financing you business

- Available platforms for business growth, etc

Entrepreneurs in the house... lets support this move.

WHAT DO YOU THINK

"The highest way is to be held in love and care which amount to respect "

Love is much more irrational and its make people do (sometimes) stupid things. like, going sacrificing all they have for a project just because they love the leader and or the feeling of accomplishment, so they do it anyway. They are maybe inspired by the future glory, which is much more motivating than the limiting fear.

So it can be deduced than using fear indeed gets the job done but its a short term solution. Once the job is done you have no loyalty. Having both fear and love is better options, but you can you really be both?

So much mystique and aura around one quote.

This quote has gone from the perspective of political science , government and military science to leadership in business. The mystique and aura around it are primarily from people who haven't read Machiavelli's The Prince. While some people don't even know the full quote. "It is Better to be feared than loved if you cannot be both."

What does this mean?

In his book, Machiavelli states that love is internally based. Its a feeling you choose to have, one that can turn you on and off easily. Fear is much more predictable and largely externally based. Lovers can fall out easily but fear does not wear off if the cause character remains.

But note that "if you cannot be both" part of the quote.
The highest way is to be held in love and fear which amount to respect.

Fear and love seem to be key in leadership. If you can get people to fear you, you can get tons of "productive" work done. But if people fear you (or the project/mission),you are only leveraging on a source of motivation .people's fear.

Perhaps choosing to start with fear, then love,is better.

This is the method good coaches apply,they're tough initially and once they get your head in the game they respect you and you return that respect, it's a relationship. Using fear alone will win some games but then people look elsewhere for respect .
