Patriotism is what is lacking among many Nigerians, it is so disdainful when you see many Nigerians making statements like;
" Nigeria is not my business, the government is eating our money so I don't care, some even go to the extent of having a firm belief that the issue of terrorism is being politicised or is a religious war so they usually make statement like; "let them kill themselves thank God am not in the north".
This is so painful in a country that claims to be the giant of Africa and that have potentials of becoming a global power according to some  estimates and predictions. The truth is that the most important asset for the development of a Nation is Her human resources which Nigeria is very blessed with, Nigeria is the most populous country in Africa and the ninth most populous Nation in the world, but one thing is lacking among Nigerians, it's that I don't care attitude, they display unpatriotic acts everywhere, some even go to the extent of denying being citizens of Nigeria Abroad, this is so disheartening. No matter where you are in the world or how far away you are from home, You are still a Nigerian and Nigeria is in your blood.
Even our National anthem says it all,
" to serve our father's land, with love and strength and faith.......to serve with heart and might"
So we are required to serve our Nation with the whole of our heart, with love, with strength and faith and belief in a better Nigeria.
For those that are football fans, we  will notice that during the 2014 world cup in Brazil, the semi final match between Brazil and Germany in which Brazil trailed behind Germany by 7 goals to 1, despite this great loss and disgrace in their home soil and during a world cup match, this never stopped the Brazilian fans from cheering their team, some even went to the extent of crying and lamenting for their team, I was so touched by this great act of patriotism and love for country displayed by the Brazilians, we all know that if this had happened to Nigeria, reverse will be the case, as the fans will castigate and curse the players, coach and even the Government, pointing accusing fingers. But the love for our country is meant to be most felt when we are in disturbing or bad situations like the issue of Boko Haram which is a pressing issue right now, this is when the Government needs the help and support of the citizens to tackle the menace.
Another County in which I so much admire their patriotism is the Americans, the United States citizens are so Patriotic and they display love for their country through their popular chant, " God bless America" Any  American you come by  is used to this saying because they believe the United States is God's own country. When last have you seen a Nigeria chanting God bless Nigeria?
Patriotism involves showing love for your country and the people within it, it involves supporting the leadership of the country in both good and trying times, it involves promoting a positive image of the country anywhere you are in the world, it involves being a good Ambassador of the country anywhere you are, it involves praying for your country in your religion.
Nigerians are to learn the fact that their support, patriotism and love is what will move the country forward, we should shun all our religious and ethnic differences and display acts of love, oneness, unity and harmony among ourselves. So goes the saying,
"Together we rise, divided we fall".
It also takes to two to tango.
The fact is that Nigeria is better as one, separating or breaking away will not pay, we should live together in peace and build a great Nation together.
Nigeria!!!!!!!
Good people!!!!!!!!
Great Nation!!!!!!!!
A united Nigeria is all we want.
God bless Nigeria.

SET YOUR PRIORITIES RIGHT

Every new day and week  comes with new different opportunities, challenges, breakthrough, victories, setbacks, obstacles, failures and success. This is when you see everyone going  about their businesses, some trying to catch appointments, some trying to sign contracts, some trying to beat the traffic, some trying to go to school and most of all everyone  trying to figure out how to make it. But in the midst of all  this hustling and bustling, keep one thing in mind, that is to "set your priorities right" do everything at the right time. Have a precise plan for each day, because failing to plan is planning to fail. Just as I keep reiterating that if the purpose of waking up is not known, then go back to sleep.
Just like Jack Canfield once said;
"Success isn't magic or hocus-pocus, it's simply learning how to focus". 
  If you have no plan or focus of how your day will be, then there is no need gallivanting up and down aimlessly without any sense of direction or definite plan. 
    Therefore, this new week, set your goals for each day and each week and  as well as  give yourself an ultimatum to achieve each goal, because it is your goals that determines your success and use your time wisely and most of all do not over stress yourself, in all your endeavours, try to be healthy because health is Wealth, because if you are unhealthy, then you can't  embark on all  your businesses. By the end of this week, have a sense of fulfilment that yes I have achieved something.
Happy new day!!!!!!! 
Happy new week!!!!!!
God bless Nigeria!!!!!

PURPOSE part B - Life is worth living

Listening to the lyrics of the song "life is worth living" by Justin Bieber, it's says;
"Trying to figure out where to go...........
People makes mistake but doesn't mean you have to give in......life is worth living again "
This song inspires me a lot because there is a point in our life when we will all ask these questions;

Who am i?
What am I here for?
What will become of me in the nearest future? 
Life is truly worth living because we are all here for a particular purpose, we have a long journey ahead of us in fulfilling that purpose, that's why life is a journey that must be completed. Before the journey of life can be completed, we must all an inner sense of fulfillment. 
But in the journey of life, we all need a sense of direction, we can't live life like the chaff which the wind blows away, a life without direction is not worth living. Once you have a sense of direction in life, move in the course of that direction, just like a ship without a direction will surely sink, so it is the coach or captain that steers the course of the ship to give it a sense of direction, so is life you are the captain or coach of your life, you are the only one that can steer the course of your life and no one else. 
Another point that is note worthy is the fact that in life, people make mistakes but that does not mean we should give in, never give in to mistakes or failure, failure or mistakes is not the end of life. Your failure is not your fall. 
Make your life worth living so that at the end you will have a sense of fulfillment, live your life not for your own selfish interest but for the good of those around you, impact the lives of those you come across and live a lasting impression anywhere you find yourself. Just as the  first impression you create matters a lot so is the lasting impression you live, it means a lot.
Live your life and be the best version of you.
Once you are able to answer the above questions, then your life will truly be worth living and dying for.
