From the voice within

When trying to influence your fellow guy or gurl, or the society at large, put aside what you want, your personal interest and consider what they want, and also show him how to get it. For example, you go fishing, right, you cant bait with strawberries, that's what you want, not what those fishes want. When you bait with worm or grasshopper, you see them fishes, flocking around, in so doing, you have achieved your aim and satisfied them. If you desire change, you need to stop thinking of what you want first, and ask what the other party involved wants and then show him how to get it. If I am to relate it with our present government, they have been using force, yet no positive result. Now the question is what do they want, the boko haram, and the ogas at the top behind it? So we can end these tragedies for good and have a better Nigeria, not sayin we should give them, but let's understand, what is it they want then we can have a head way. We are all seeking for peace and security. Let the different heads meet, then they discuss on the advantages and disadvantages with the men incharge of these cruel acts and see ways in which they can help one another, it might not sound like the best plan but it is something worth trying. God is forever there for His people and He would bring peace and protected us. Let's do our part, our girls need us to be strong and start thinking of a better way of doing things in this situation. Henry Ford said 'if there is any one secret of success, it lies in the ability to get the other person's point of view and see things from his angle as well as from you own' . This applies in every area of our lives. Unfortunately, 90 percent of people on this earth would ignore. I was telling maliq sometime pass, we sincerely need to pray against this selfish syndrome in us. It has eaten deep but there is always another chance to do better and to seek better results. Remember, we all have a common interest which is peace, unity and security. Owen D. Young said 'the man who can put himself in the place of other men, who can understand the workings of their minds, need never worry about what the future has in store for him'.

  1. It depends on what d person u are in dialogue with wants and then what is at stake. Regarding our present situation in Naija, abeg we are past dialogue and understanding what they want. Our way of dialogue with terrorists is amnesty. That was offered and they threw it back at GEJs face... I say flush them out and make an example of them. Sadly our military seems incompetent of that. That's d reason why everyone including the military are stressing on praying that God touches their hearts. Don't get me wrong I am all for prayer but I see no "works" thus making it seem useless.
