Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase. Job 8:7 It is in the nature of God to start great things in a very small way. This most times is contrary to the quick fix culture of our age. Nothing great today actually started big but in a little form; the account of creation and every day experience attests to this. In God’s dream to fill the whole earth with man who is to subdue and replenish the earth, created only a man – Adam and much later a woman – Eve; He did not create all the nations, tribes, race, and languages in a day. God chose to make only one man in His image and likeness and out of him created all nations, tribes, race, and languages. A seed is a very small part of a tree, but inside that tiny seed is not just a tree but trees. When the seed is sown, it do not turn to a tree overnight but goes through a process of time to transform to a tree and then a forest. Even the human life, it starts little in fertilization, pregnancy and then b...

Life is a great teacher; it teaches through the experiences that it brings our way as we daily live our lives. Those that shy away from life experiences, unknowingly denies themselves the opportunity to learn. The things you went through leave lasting impressions that cannot be easily erased and to a large extinct form your character and skill. It is natural for like to beget like; so successful people should have successful children or protégé but the contrary had almost always been the case -The children of the most successful people end up being the failures of all time. The question had always been why? Why this aberrations? What’s the disconnect? The simply explanation to that is that most successful people shield their children from the things that made them successful and great – their experiences; the things they went through in life. So common we hear parents say I suffered so much and as such would not want my children to suffer. Words like these are only excusing such ...

By Obaro E Aziza Our lives are an aggregation of the things we do daily. It is therefore very important that you deliberately spend your time on the most productive activities. The most productive people are those who have been able to identify those activities that give them great results and spend most of their time on such activities. In this article, I have written on ways you can make the best use of your time daily. These tips will help you become a more effective person and get results faster.

It is impossible to be left out with no option on what to do; life is always fair enough to leave us with alternatives. But the challenge had always been that we often treat the alternatives with contempt and pretend to have no option. Naturally, the flow is in the direction of least resistance and passing the bulk is easier thing to do than taking ownership and responsibility; we blame everyone and everything thereby show how immature we are. For a few, they put themselves in the list of who to blame but blame do not in any way help. It is very likely to blame others and even yourself when ones interest is to get off the hook and not to address the matter; when you only think of escape route rather than a perpetual solution or the intention is to create an impression rather than make an impact. What alternatives do I have other than blaming other? 1. Admit your wrongs. Admitting your wrongs do not in any way make you less human rather it makes you the real human you are. It is a ...

One major reason we live is to have opportunities to have experiences and learn from them; once we learn we move on to the next one. However, if we fail to learn, we keep finding opportunities to learn it again and again; it is an endless cycle of adventure. Many people fail in life because the experiences that came their way end up being an event because no lesson was learnt from them. They blame everyone but themselves for these events and so become much blinded to the lesson the experiences have presented to them. No wonder they never cease to have repeat of similar experiences. Life will continue to throw at us the same lessons until we learn from them for there are no shortcut to life and more so no carryover. Here are some ways to start learning from life experiences, you must push a stop button to blame game to able to make progress in life. 1. Look out for a lesson to learn from whatever experience you pass through especially the negative experiences. 2. Make a personal ...

Before talking or explaining the methods that you can use to cook beans to prevent farting after, you should first understand what causes this flatulence. Beans contain a class of carbohydrates called Oligosaccharides (e.g. raffinose and stachyose), some of which cannot be processed by our digestive system. When we eat beans and they get to our intestine, the Oligosaccharides remain there as we do not have the enzymes or any other thing whatsoever to digest them. After the Oligosaccharides pass into our large intestine, the bacteria present there start to break them down. During this process, the bacteria release several different types of gases, mainly hydrogen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide. About 33% of these bacteria also end up producing methane and this is the one that smells. Methods for Cooking Beans To Prevent Farting 1. Soaking your Beans in Water Scientists and even pro chefs have recommended soaking your beans in water for hours before cooking will remove most of the...
