"WHO PUSHED ME!" PART TWO

Research reveals that humans do not even use up to ten percent of their potentials throughout their lifetime. Respected Russian scholar, Ivan Yefemren has said that each and every one of us has the ability to learn forty languages and memorize an entire set of encyclopedia from A to Z, among other things! Wow! All this goes to show the limitlessness of the human potential when there is a "push." This push may come from people whose actions you do not find palatable or helpful in the present. This push may come from a person who truly believes in you like Sonya Carson did to the renowned neurosurgeon, who separated the Miranda twins, Ben Carson. This push could be a book or an article – like the one you are reading now or it could be circumstances. This push could be anything!




Any virtue that is to be developed in you can only grow in the soil of opposite circumstances. For instance, if the virtue of long suffering is to be developed in you; you will find yourself in situations that will warrant your giving up so easily. Similarly, if you are to develop the virtue of peace, do not be surprised if you find yourself in conflict-ridden situations! That is how the growth process takes place- outside your comfort zone. And just like the young man in the earlier story realized, the fake alligators and crocodiles are like fears of what does not exist. In actual fact, FEAR is simply an acronym for False Evidence Appearing Real.



I will conclude this article by saying that in order not to be outdated, you must be updated
In order not to expire, you must be inspired
In order not to stay downgraded you must be upgraded
In order to be in the flow, you must be in the know
In order not to be deformed, you must be informed


A push will help you!

TIPS ON CROSS-EXAMINATION

-

Cross examination is a delicate act and art that requires mastery of the intricacies therein and understanding of the subtle nuances of human nature. The following tips are relevant.  The first rule of cross examination is not to examine crossly. Abuse is not an argument, no matter who gives it. It is dog's eloquence to  abuse and stoop low to injure another's personality. Get the defendant to commit to absolute statements; then confront him with the damaging letter or evidence. Proceed with as much easiness as if the value of a loss in cross examination were less than a kobo. Establish other possibilities that are open even when the evidence is or appears to be  substantially true. Cross examination can be directed to show that witness was occupied with circumstances surrounding the fact rather than the fact itself. This can be skewed to show that the witness was completely inattentive when the incident happened.

GOAL SETTING AND GO GETTING; THE EAGLE EXAMPLE (PART FOUR)

 THE EAGLE'S NEST The eagles nest is a sight to behold; It weighs more than two tonnes and in fact, it can support two grown men. You do not find this kind of nest anywhere else. It is usually found in the most remote and unattainable spot the bird can find and then it will be perched very high in the mountains or on some sheer cliff or a very high tree. Due to the massive size of this nest and the fact that each and every stick and materials like timber from construction sites, discarded clothing, paper, fresh stick, grass and leaves  to prevent the nest from getting dirty  has to be carried to this remote building by the eagle, you will easily agree that the nest building will be a huge task for the eagle. The eagle, however, is not intimidated or overwhelmed by the sheer intensity of this task. It understands the power of goals and taking little steps  which add up in the long run  towards the achievement of these goals. As Robert Schuller said, “By the yard, it is hard but in

WHERE YOU ARE IS NOT WHO YOU ARE By ISHOLA EMMANUEL There is a very interesting experiment which I would like to share with you. The experiment is this: Try taking a container and put in it, carefully selected big stones. Make sure that the stones are big and put them at the bottom of the container. Now place on top of the container stones of smaller sizes. By now you would have a container with small stones on top and big stones underneath. The next thing is that you shake the container. What would you find? You would find that the smaller stones wuld find their way to the bottom while bigger stones will find their way to the top. The big stones signifies people who have built capacity in areas such as physically, mentally, spiritually, socially etc. but due to the vicissitudes of life find themselves down. Whenever you find yourself in this category, I am here to tell you that it is only a temporary phase. You will rise again. Whenever you find your self down
