THE GREATEST NATION IN THE WORLD IS NOT THE U.S. OR CHINA


In my opinion, the greatest nation in the world is neither the ancient civilization of Egypt nor the old Babylonian empire. It is not even the present day China or America. The greatest nation in the
world is your imagiNATION.


Even God recognized the power of man's
imagination during the building of the tower of Babel. He had to say that the people were one and nothing would be restrained from them which they have IMAGINED to do.


The imagination in man's mind is really powerful. It is in your imagination that construction takes place and ideas spring up. The United States on July 20, 1969 could send Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin into the moon but with your imagination you can do more. You can send the moon into your mind. Hahaha! You are that powerful.



Imagination as i see it is about forming images in the mind. Let me break it down. Imagination is gotten from two words; viz image and formation. In other words, Image + formation = imagination.
Dare to dream with creative images in your mind. You may not be like it now. But can i tell you something my dear friend? Fake it. Yes fake the images. Fake it until you make it. Believe it so
strongly and you become it. Believe it then you become it. It works that way. The empires of your future are the empires of your mind.



What images are you creating today? Are they negative or positive. Do you view your job as frustrating or fulfilling? What images are you creating about yourself? Are you bogged down by your challenges or do you view them as opportunities to stretch you, grow and make you
better? View the cup as half-full not half-empty.


You are so powerful and your power can be expressed through your imagination. Use your imagination to your advantage because ultimately, you become what you believe. Tell yourself a lie long enough and it beomes your truth.

TIPS ON CROSS-EXAMINATION

-
Image
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)

Image
 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
