REJECTION

Rejection is a presupposed view point of one’s unworthiness by others. They make it seem like it’s about you, but its really about them so don’t sweat it. God allows some people to reject you so that you won’t haphazardly violate His exclusive NO COMPROMISE CLAUSE over your life, thank Him now!

The stone that the builders rejected has become the HEAD of the corner. You couldn’t follow them because God wanted you to lead them. Those who reject you are the father’s clear indication of who DOES NOT wants to participate in your destiny and you’ll see them one day.

You don’t have to live DEJECTED because you’ve been REJECTED. You don't have to be DEPRESSED just because they weren’t IMPRESSED. When you discover your value to God and His favor over your life, you’ll begin to view their rejection as his PROTECTION.

You’re so valuable that God has hidden His treasure IN You; His walking, breathing inheritance. Get a clue; you’re worth more than their NO. Some people don’t just walk out on you; they walked out on the FEAR of what they couldn’t be FOR you. You were their greatest challenge.

If you’re down about being rejected by people, I dare you to read Ephesians chapter one, but if you can stay down after that, you’ve rejected YOURSELF. Being accepted by God weighs more than being rejected by them. Sometimes it takes a minute for the CLUELESS to catch up with the ALL-KNOWING.

In conclusion, never change your God-given uniqueness to fit in to the the description of those who try to make your “extraordinary”, their “regular”. Be ORIGINAL. Allowing the hurt of rejection to rule your life says that you AGREE with the “non-value” that was ascribed to you. Break that agreement. Don’t spend your life trying to gain access to the people who have rejected you. You’ve already been accepted by God. That’s what matters.

NO SUCH THING AS NATIONAL TRANSFORMATION

A reasonable man adapts himself to the world, the unreasonable man tries to adapt the world to himself, but the most reasonable man creates his own world. When your external world drives you more than the dreams that are within you, you cease to be in charge. Circumstances become our compelling counselors, and our potential to become a world changer is changed by the world (Nation).

My concern now is not whether Nigeria is 51; my concern is what if a nation like Nigeria cannot change you, would you change the nation? Tell me, what is your contribution to the growth of our nation? It is a true statement that any nation that will grow must first grow within, because what happens within reflects without. This unarguably fact is a proof that Nigeria will never experience NATIONAL TRANSFORMATION without PERSONAL TRANSFORMATION.

It is so pathetic that many of us have lost personal identity in our quest for the retrieval of national identity. My question is, can doing ever take the place of being? We have become driven individuals rather than called individuals. Doing is simply the reflection of our inner core. Who I am should dictate what I do, not the other way round. In other words, we are human beings not human doings.

Like I once said in a conference, ‘that I am not an advocate for the orthodox national transformation.’ not because I don’t believe in anything national, but I strongly believe that personal transformation is the key to national calibration. The problem of our Nation is not about National influence but Personal influence. I hope we can focus more on the seed and not the fruit; when we pray for the seeds, the fruits can get better.

A great nation possesses more of human beings than human doings. It is “I am, therefore I do.” not “I do, therefore I am.” I have said all of that to say that personal development is the way, emphatically the only way to national development. The wealth of every nation is a function of the quality and not the quantity of people living therein.

This is my message to Nigerians on Nigeria’s 51stbirthday!!!
I actually wrote this for Nigeria on her 51st birthday!!!
Happy Birthday Nigeria!!!

EMPLOYABILITY

Nigeria’s capacity to employ its own population seems to diminish progressively, despite the country’s quantifiable fiscal ability resulting from the production and sale of Crude oil. However, the challenge remains that we did get into this; by lots of years of economic and social mismanagement and misguided policy; the best product of the educational system flew from the system; and excessive focus on certificate rather than skills. But it dissuades me that many of our graduates still heed this word “Employability” than “Ability”.

Employability is the capability of getting and keeping satisfactory work. It’s about capable of getting and keeping fulfilling work, having the capability to move self sufficiently within the labour market to realize potential through sustainability employment. Employability also depends on the knowledge, skills and attitudes that people possess; importantly the way they use those assets and present them to employers, and the context within which they seek work.

Certainly, your degree will unlock doors but you can’t rely on it alone. It will make you eligible to apply for jobs that specify a graduate applicant, though the subject and your class of degree may also be important to certain employers especially in our kind of environment. But however good your degree class, however relevant your subject to the job that you'll be applying for, it is probable that you will be competing for this job with a set of other graduates who are equally well-qualified academically.

Though a degree is not enough, also passing aptitude test is not enough, but there should be a combination of degree, skills, and attitude to get to the peak of your career. Your degree is not the only key, gets skills, know your skills and also put attitude in place.

Once your degree has unlocked the door, you'll need the right mix of skills, abilities and personal qualities in order to turn the handle and give the door the push that will open it to you. Get the right key and get employed.
