Stop stressing the ‘I know’!!!




Stop stressing the ‘I know’!!!

The adage “action speaks better than words” is very popular and known by several people. Unfortunately, this does not apply to the lives of many. They live their lives in such a way that others will be aware of what they claim to know; whilst they know not. Pitiful!!

In the recent past , I overheard a young guy discussing  what he intend to do after he had completed the senior high school as if he knew everything about it, on the basis of how he used to say it. However some very little interrogation I made with him revealed he had no idea  what he was talking about.  Not to suggest you need not to discuss or share your ideas. My intention is to make you explore for more knowledge. You don’t have to make noise for people to know what you are capable of doing. So if you know, do it! And stop stressing the ‘I know’ because if you knew, they would know.

Start work!!!

Start work!!!   In the examination room, there are certain rules you need to follow. One of such rules is to wait patiently until you are told to start work. Sometimes some students don’t start on time because they couldn’t pay careful attention when the siren was rang for starting work or were even paying attention but couldn’t hear the announcement, leading to poor performance. All I am saying is there are rules and you are obliged to follow them. This applies to the journey of life as well; there are rules and you need to follow them:   you really need to get started in order to get things moving. The Law of Cause and Effect states that everything happens for a reason; there is a cause for every effect.   This implies that, as long as you stay idle all things remain stagnant. Unfortunately so many people are comfortably siting, standing or even lying down on their own way to success, thinking someone will pull them with a rope to their destination. Belo...

GHANA BEYOND AID: REFINING THE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM

GHANA BEYOND AID: REFINING THE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM The idea of Ghana beyond aid is a laudable idea by the government which demands total rearrangement in almost all levels of our national institutions. The educational system cannot be left out when talking about a nation ‘beyond aid’. We need educational system that promises to tackle issues that impede national development – an educational system that will assure its citizens of adequate knowledge and requisite skills READILY NEEDED for harnessing national growth (emphasis capitalized). We need a school system, starting from the junior high school as well as the senior high level, which will enable our young ones to gain grounds to compete with global economy. In that case the nation wouldn’t employ the service of foreigners for our nation, from basic service delivery to Construction works. I hope this is not new because it is a common place to hear of such things as the employment of foreign aid for  our developments, I bel...

ARTICLE SHS 1-4; LIFE IS NOT A FUN FAIR!!!

ARTICLE SHS 1-4; LIFE IS NOT A FUN FAIR!!! There is a purpose for everything under the universe. The sun shines to provide light during the day likewise the moon during the night. Though both of them provides light, they don’t wait for each other before producing the needed light. During my senior high school days, there used to be an annual program called ‘fun fair’ where colleagues from several schools all over the country come together to have fun with friends through entertainment(I don’t know if it is still organized). Other colleagues also ‘just’ accompany their friends, hang around and go back at the end of the program without accomplishing any task. Thus they wouldn’t have gone but for following their friends’ sake; achieving nothing, nothing at all... Unfortunately so many people live their lives as if they are accompanying their friends on this planet. They are always ready to go anywhere. Today they are here. Tomorrow, there. One day...
