You can also make it!!!

You can also make it!!!

Whenever I wish to undertake an activity, I look at it on the basis of how it could be achieved in this generation and compare it to how the same activity was performed some years back. In fact I have realized that in the current generation everything has been made very simple especially through the use of the internet. Every opportunity that emerges in any part of the world can be made known to you at any time provided you make yourself available and put in little effort.

Nature has provided you with all the things and resources needed to be successful in life, it is now incumbent on you to fish out those resources and put them to use for the betterment of your life. Your inabilities to fish out those resources make you think it’s very difficult to succeed, not to suggest being successful is on a silver platter. Like Henry Wadsworth Longfellow said, “The heights great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight, but, they, while their companions slept, were toiling upward in the night.” My intention is to make you understand that you can also make it in life so strive harder towards achieving your set goals.

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...

The shoulders of giants!!!

The shoulders of giants!!! According to the bible, zacchaeus ‘the short’ was a notorious tax collector. He cheated the people of his time by collecting taxes which exceeded the required amount. His life changed tremendously and became a good Christian after his encounter with Christ the messiah. This divine transformation took place after he had climbed the sycamore-fig tree to see Christ; he saw afar. Unfortunately so many individuals are comfortably sitting in their situations thinking all hope is lost. Meanwhile, the life of some successful personalities like Dr. Opoku Onyina, Dr. Mensa Otabil, Prophet Kakra Baiden and many others is wealthy of emulation. Beloved, like zacchaeus, there is nothing too late in life, you just have to stand on the shoulders of giants and you will see afar. ….. Daniel Odoi©...…

The loose-loose-game; unwinnable scenario!!!

The loose-loose-game; unwinnable scenario!!! Couple of years ago, I witnessed a game between a young girl and her elder sister. In this game, a stone is hidden in one palm of the sister, the hand is sent back and the stone left on a chair without the kid’s knowledge. The two hands are brought forward again simultaneously and the kid is asked to guess which hand contains the stone. She never got any of the chances right because the stone is in neither of the two palms. I call this game ‘the loose-loose-game’ . It is an unwinnable scenario! Some youths instead of striving harder towards achieving their set goals, have entrusted their future in the hands of some families and friends who they thought will assist them in the course of their lives. Unfortunately some of these relatives do not carry them to their desired destination. In the long run, they only give ‘tangible’ excuses whenever they are approached. Like the kid who couldn’t win in ‘the loose-loose- game’, you...
