DECISION MAKING Skip to main content

A story of my confused state

  2018, I moved to Ogun state and had to seek employment in a school within my vicinity. As a Lagos teacher, I was used to a vibrant class, swift answers and mushy acts by my students. So I resumed at my new work place with that fully charged energy. The first day got me confused. I was to teach the primary classes, I started my class and it was obvious these children were not following. They could neither understand what I was saying nor did they show any bit of interest. It was then I knew I had to start from the scratch. First, I had to create a connection. I wanted them to understand that I am first their friend. I needed to set the foundation that they can have both a friend and teacher in one. After that, I came down to their level. I made them feel and appreciate every little progress they made. I built up their interest in education. We worked together, applying several strategies I discovered and created, and within some month the growth was evident. Eureka is a book that ...

DECISION MAKING


In our stay here on earth we are bound to make choices which will either favour us or destroy  us.
now today we would be looking at two types of decisions and how they can change our lives forever. in the book of Ruth, after the death of Naomi's husband and sons  she decided to go back to her village and then bid her daughter in-laws farewell. but Oprah and Ruth made a decision to follow her. now we would be studying these decisions today.

1)  OPRAH's decision: when Naomi told her that she wants her to return to her hometown, she refused saying she would follow her to wherever she was going. but if we read through the story of Ruth we would discover that after much persuasion Oprah accepted to go home.
now, i kept on wondering why she didn't stand on her decision to follow Naomi home then i came up with this likely reasons.

a) Everything happened so sudden and she made her decision in a haste
b) going home with Naomi seemed like the best thing to do at that particular time.
c) she wanted to find favour in the sight of Naomi
d) she thought it would be wise to go with Ruth's decision

These major factors above made it difficult for her to stand on her decision. the decision wasn't built on a rigid platform.
Many of us today make decisions like this and then any little wind that blows makes us change our decision. you make your decision based on the economy of your country,

 You make your decision based on what friends are saying. you make your decision to suit people so that you would look good in their eyes.
such decisions are bound to change, they are bound to fall, they are bound to bring doom.               maybe you have taken a decision and it seems like its not working, check the foundation of that decision. what was it built on?
Just like when you're building a house, if the foundation of the house isn't strong the house would collapse but when the foundation is strong the house can withstand storm and wind.

what is the fundation of your decision? GO BACK AND MAKE IT STRONGER to be continued...

MY TALENT, MY PRIDE( DISCOVER YOURSELF)

Bola,Tayo, Ayo amd Bimpe where very close friends. they are the type of kids every parents would always pray to have. Bola was a very talented singer, she sings like an angel and everyone adores her. Tayo too was a good dancer, he is so flexible that one would wonder if his body where made of foam. Ayo wasn't left out, he was so good with spellings, he could spell words those older than him would find difficult spelling. Bimpe felt like the odd one out,"why am i the one without a talent"she would always say to herself. whenever she went out with her friends for talents audition she would always feel left out because she has nothing to present. she would always cry her eyes out sometimes wishing she was her friends. she envied her friends talents and most times prayed to God to make her a singer, dancer or a good speller. when she saw her prayers have been ignored by God she started attending dance and music classes, she would always go to her friend Ayo to teach ...
