THE MORAL OF SUPPORTING EVIL












 Tí abání kòkànwá aò lèso, ólèkan eni tó kàn wá, lafi ní, kámá fi oun tí kòdára kan ènìyàn kan, Òle kan Omo làkejì tó kàn ni se.... SAHEED OSUPA".


MORAL LESSON!


Long-time ago in the Animal Kingdom, a Sheep was passing and saw a Lion crying inside a cage trapped  and the Lion begged the Sheep to save him with a promise not to kill and eat it but the Sheep refused. 


After much persuasion and for the Sheep's gullibility it opened the cage for the Lion.


Now the Lion was very hungry having stayed in the cage for days without food. It quickly grabbed the Sheep to kill and eat but the Sheep reminded him of his promise. 


They were still there arguing when other animals came passing and they sought to know what happened. 


Both the Lion and the Sheep narrated their own side of the story but because of fear and in trying to gain favour in the sight of the Lion, all the animals took side with the Lion except the Tortoise who claim not to understand the whole scenario. 


Now the Tortoise asked the Lion to show them where he was before the Sheep rescued him, he pointed at the cage. 


He asked again, "were you inside or outside when the Sheep arrived"? 


The Lion said he was inside. 


The Tortoise again said, "ok, enter let’s see how difficult it could be inside". 


The Lion entered and the Tortoise locked him back inside.


In amazement, the other animals asked Tortoise "why" and he replied 

"if we allow him to eat the Sheep today, he will still go hungry tomorrow and we don't know the next amongst us to be eaten tomorrow. 


The Moral of this tale

*Don't support evil today because it doesn't affect you directly. Tomorrow it could be your turn. Have a rethink again over your dealings and your attitude.

WHAT WILL BE YOUR EXCUSE?

 











It is very important to ask yourself what your excuse would be by the time this year ends? It won't be a surprise at all if you give any excuse because the lazy man's alibi is an excuse. There are many excuses out there including the exchange rate of the naira to a dollar? The most common thing we have today is finding an excuse for our below par performance.

I won't open any book of lamentation for those who continue to seek every conceivable reasons for them to stay in the doldrum of poverty or the state that they are today. You can't be doing the same thing day-in and day-out with an expectation that you will get a different result. If you are working in the same place of work doing the same thing your results today will not be different from the one you had last year.

Except for personal deception, we have far too many intellectually lazy people today. It is easier for them to chat for endless hours, spending the currency of time like they would live on earth forever oblivious of the passage of time. Many are wasting their youths online on Whatsapp and Facebook, ask them what are they doing, taking Panadol for the headache of another.

Are you one of those who are saying you have no jobs and expecting someone to create a job and pay you? It is nothing but living in a dream world of attendant poverty. In Philippines today, there are youths who work online by researching for people and they get paid by the hour and you are saying there is no job, I guess we are surrounded by lazy youths who wants a life they can't afford.

There is no honor amongst thieves. If you are wasting your own time you are merely committing suicide only you are not buried yet. If you allow someone else waste your time, you are been murdered. Either way you are been foolish, wasting the greatest gift that you ever have which is your life. There is nothing that God will create on this earth. He has created all he needs to create but your laziness will not allow you add anything of value to this earth.

Don't join the league of those who are mere existing and not living. A lazy man is fond of a little slumber, a little folding of the arms, a lot of endless, mindless chatter and gossip of other people's affairs and never minding his own business. If you are not doing anything with your life, you are merely existing not living or better put, a walking corpse and that is what every lazy individual is. Pride and ego is a big problem of the lazy. They are always looking for easy way out. Remember whatever you sow is what you will reap.

How To Train A Puppy



If you want to train a puppy, you have to get the timing right.

Their brains can only connect their behavior and its consequence over a very short period of time.

And if you want your training to be REALLY effective, you have to catch them in the act.

That's why clicker training is so effective. 

You associate a reward to the click.

After you do that for a while, the click itself triggers a reward  in the brain.

And then you use the click itself to mark the exact moment the puppy took the desired action.

Although people are much more complicated...
And have a more sophisticated ability to bridge the gap between action and consequence...
Our brains still work in fundamentally the same way.

Why do you think that so many people knowingly trade long-term costs for short-term benefits?

Think junk food, video games, tv, drugs, and alcohol.

They all trigger short-term rewards.

The brain heavily biases towards those things which reward or punish us immediately.

So if you are responsible for training people...
(And you're always responsible for training yourself)

Or if you want to start encouraging certain behaviors over others...

Start catching them in the act.
