Where not to be during a Pandemic (my personal take out) and false beliefs

2020-07-20T12:18:00.001+01:00

Another false belief is based on the weather in Africa, the people in Africa believe that because of the high temperature in Africa that it will be difficult for coronavirus to survive hence, the believe that Africans are immune to the virus. Some even believe that consumption of alcohol will prevent the virus from surviving in the body.

We were forced to face reality when people started dying in Africa. Lockdown was introduce which was difficult for Africans to obey, this is because we live on a daily earnings economy, hunger and lack became the problem. Many even came out with falsehood, they believe that coronavirus is a conspiracy started by the NWO (new world order).

Despite the facts that Africans cannot carry out enough test for the virus some people came out with the notion that the result of test are being inflated. Why will the result be inflated? Because any country with the highest number of infections will be rewarded financially by the new world order. Reward? What type of reward will equate what has been lost by countries around the world?

As shallow as this thinking is many well educated Africans believe in this conspiracy to the extent that they took all the precaution for granted and threw caution to the wind. No more, social distancing and the rest.

Who will blame the Africans? After several years of misrule and embezzlement it became very difficult to trust the leaders. Is it the fact that even the palliative released by government to the populist are being stolen by the officials in charge? Is it a fact that many people will become rich through this pandemic? Is it the fact that may people thrive when others are experiencing misfortune?

Then why won’t Africans live under doubt and distrust? The pandemic is still evolving, many people are dying and still it seems there is no solution to the problem.

Leaving under this type of situation is really not one hope for but situations will always lead to it.

My prayer is that the pandemic should seize. That the cure should be found and that God should protect all our health workers spread all over the world.

I suggest you do same, praying to the God you believe in,to heal our land.

More about where not to be during a Pandemic (my personal take out)

2020-07-20T12:12:00.001+01:00

Government around the world began to take steps. The economy of the world was affected. This is because many countries who have the virus lockdown the citizens in their homes for prolong period of time, besides dying of the covid-19, many people around the world were and are dying from another form of disease, that is hunger. Those who are fortunate to live in countries that are known as developed countries of the world were still having things easy because they have responsible and responsive government. Their government provided palliatives for the citizens. Palliatives that actually got to the citizens.

But the people that lives in the countries that are either known as the developing countries or the underdeveloped countries are not having things that easy. First they are burdened with the type of government that are termed as unresponsive and also irresponsible. It took a lot of time for them to believe in the existence of such virus-covid-19, so they were slow to take steps in preventing the virus. This was not peculiar to such countries not when we have the president of the most powerful nation of the world refusing to do anything until the country started recording deaths.

Same things applied to one of the presidents in one of the under developed countries in Latin America. He believed that the coronavirus was just a lie, that the virus does not exist. Many people died in the country and are still dying. Simply because the person that should lead by example refused to lead.

Now let us go to Africa, a place of superstition and doubt. A place of total distrust from the citizens towards the leader. The distrust is so much that it is always difficult to even believe the leaders when they are telling the truth.

This same doubt has been transferred to the coronavirus situation. At first it was the superstition, the belief that the black skin is stronger than the white skin therefore the people in Africa cannot catch or be affected with coronavirus. A belief based on ignorance because many people of colour have died even more than the white because it has been proven that they have a high number of people having underlying health conditions. This is due to the coloured people diets that mostly consist of fried foods with resultant negative effects on the health of the people.

Where not to be during a Pandemic (my personal take out)

2020-07-20T12:10:00.001+01:00

Many months back the world witness the arrival of a new strain of a Virus known as Corona. The strain was later called the Covid -19. The news of the virus broke in the month of December 2019 but it was discovered that the virus has been raging since November of the same year.

The city of Wuhan in China became the epicentre of the disease. Many countries prayed and wished that the Virus will stay within china and not move to other parts of the world. It was about wishing and praying steps were not taken to stop the transmission of the disease from person to person, and the number of infected person within china increased from Wuhan to other parts of China.

The process of curtailing the virus was not immediately known so people were allowed to live their normal lives while the infection continue to grow. The person to person transmission of the virus continues to increase and many deaths were recorded. People were still travelling from one location to another. Flight were still going from one country to another. The virus stayed within the Asian region for the month of December 2019.

By January 2020, the virus has become an intercontinental virus with infections being recorded in the United States of America. The W.H.O after weeks of studying the virus came out with steps of preventing the continuous transmission of the virus:

1. Watch your hands frequently at least for 30 seconds

2. Avoiding putting your fingers into your eyes, nose, mouth and ears without washing it first

3. Social distancing , keep a distance between you and the next person to you at least 6 inches distance

4. No hugging, no handshaking, sneeze to your elbow

5. The use of the facemask became a necessity for all.

The infected people that are young should avoid coming in contact with the older generation because the Virus thrive on underlying diseases such as Hypertension, Diabetes, heart conditions, cancer and many other diseases that people manage.

OKRA AND BENEFITS (MORE AND MORE)

2020-06-19T15:44:00.003+01:00

SLIMY OKRA SOUP

Some years ago I travelled to a beautiful place in my country called Onitsha in a state called Anambra state. A state that is very reach in cultural attitude which includes their dress sense, religion and even the sumptuous meals. I was opportune to visit one of their markets can’t actually remember the name of the market.

At a stage during my visit I became hungry and ask if I could get some foods to eat, before I forget, I was in the city for an experiential work on one of the good brand of an FMCG company in Nigeria. It was a marketing communication gig in the BTL space that is the below the line advertisement process that involved direct communication and rewards of the brand wholesalers, retailers and consumers.

I was directed to a canteen by one of the locals and the experience was amazing. There were so many delicacies available but I opted for the fufu and okra soup. The Okra soup was prepared in a way I have not seen before in my years of eating okra as a meal accompaniment. I saw the locals eating the meal with lot of relish that it became impossible for me to even do justice to my own meal.

This was a lovely sight to behold, one amazing thing I also noted is the fact that most of the locals ordered meals that have the Okra soup as accompaniment. It was strange to me because I thought it was just because they love the meal not until recently when I discovered that Okra have a lot of benefit to offer to the body system through consumption.

I saw a lot of male consuming the okra soup, most of them are the artisans, daily earners who engages in rigorous activities such activities that could affect their health including their hearts. Most times these men consume foods that are very high in carbohydrates and low in other Vitamins that are good for the body.

Consumption of such foods can actually lead to increase in the cholesterol consumptions. This may lead to high cholesterol in the body system which may also lead to the risk of heart disease. But when I saw men consuming their meals with a lot of okra soup I know that the many benefits from lowering the risk of heart disease.

Lowering the risk of heart disease is another benefit of Okra, there is a substance in okra that is known as mucilage which helps in binding to cholesterol when the digestion process occurs in the body. During the process of excretion of body waste in the body the mucilage causes the cholesterol in the body to come out with the stool. This helps the body not to absorb the high risk cholesterol in the body

Many experts in the nutritional sector and human health have carried out a lot random experiment that has proven the above benefits of okra in the human body. In the previous article I mentioned the substance polyphenol which can also be found in Okra. This substance also provide benefit to the human heart. This claim has also been confirmed by trusted expert that polyphenol can lower inflammatory marker in people who consume more okra in their diets.

OKRA AND ITS BENEFITS (MORE)

2020-06-19T15:30:00.007+01:00

In the last I article I wrote on Okra and it benefits. I wrote about the different perceptions of people in different parts of the world on Okra, some are simple superstitions and fables but despite these there are lots of benefits attached to the consumption or edibility of the veggie Okra.

The article dealt with the calories, carbohydrates, protein and fibre that are good for humans as a results of the consumptions of the Veggie Okra. I am shifting my attention to other benefits of Okra that are supported by nutrition experts and these are very good for human health benefits.

Okra looks slimy and unappealing for human consumption to some people after preparation but the nutritional benefits of this food accompaniment cannot be overemphasized. One of the things we can benefits from eating or consuming okra is the antioxidant benefits it contains.

What is antioxidants?

Antioxidants as defined by experts are compounds that are found in various foods that are either harmful or dangerous for human consumption. The compounds in foods fend off from harmful molecules and are known as free radicals.

What are free radicals?

Scientist defined free radicals as unstable molecules that can damage the human cells in the body. These radicals damage occur as a result of the normal human metabolic processes. Metabolism are process that are very essential for human activities and necessary for human or organism to maintain normal life.

Some examples of metabolic activities are some of the necessary process of the body such examples include process of respiration which may involve the breaking down of glucose o pyruvate by cellular respiration. Metabolic process are broken down into two or are of two types

1. Catabolism

2. Anabolism

Catabolism helps in the breaking down of larger molecules into simpler ones which is also referred to as destructive metabolism while anabolism on the other hand involves a process of building complex molecules from simpler ones. These two metabolic processes works together in any living organism that is why metabolism is process whereby a cell gets energy to remove waste from the organism.

Now back to okra as a good antioxidant: According to trusted sources and nutrition experts’ okra contains polyphenols, flavonoids and isoquercetin, these are main antioxidants in Okra which works together with Vitamins A and vitamin C.

What are the positives in Polyphenols?

1. Improvement of the heart,

2. Lowering the risk of blood clot

3. Repairs damage in the body as a result of oxidation.

4. Improves brains health, protects the brain from inflammation through a process of assimilation of Polyphenols into the brain

Polyphenols have a lot of benefits to the brain that may help the body from symptoms of aging, it can also in helping learning ability and improve memory and also cognition process.

All these according to nutritionist and trusted experts on foods and various benefits attached to foods.

OKRA AND ITS BENEFITS

2020-06-19T15:21:00.010+01:00

Will you eat Okra? No I answered.

Why won’t you eat Okra?

My father said it is not good for male child to eat it,

Why?

It causes you to lose some of your manly strength.

Hmm, I wonder if that is actually true. This is just an example of some of the various fables surrounding the edibility of okra. I actually grew up believing that the consumption of Okra is not good for people, especially if you are a male child.

Where I’m I from? I am an African man from the most populous black African nation of the world. I mean I am a Nigerian. A Yoruba man. I grew up believing such stories and avoided Okra like a plague. Until recently, I kept up this believe. Now I have a change of heart because I have been able to gather as much information about Okra that I will like to share them with you.

At a stage while growing up some people ascribe increase pain of STD (sexually transmitted diseases) to consumption of Okra. This actually is not true. This is because of the following reasons.

Okra is a very healthy vegetable that is good for human consumptions. I am an African and we have a lot of okra because the vegetable requires warm tropical climate to grow and this kind of whether can be found in African. Another part of the world that enjoys continuous cultivation and growth of this vegetable is South Asia because of similarities in the climate composition.

What then is Okra?

Okra is a flowery type of plant that is good for human consumption because of the edible seed pods that it contains, this vegies can be seen in two different colours basically in red and green colours despite these colours the taste are simply the same.

Lady finger. What is lady finger? Lady finger is simply the same thing as your okra. This is a name that some people sometimes choose to call the vegetable that is also classified as fruit biologically. You should not be surprised if the colour of your Okra changes while cooking it actually will not affect the wonderful taste so if you noticed that your red okra changes to green while cooking. It is all well and good.

In my native place we use okra as a form of soup to accompany the consumption of our native foods popularly referred to as ‘swallow’. When you consume your Eba (garri flakes prepared with hot water) or your Fufu (cassava flour prepared also with hot or boiled water), you will need a plate of Okra soup to make for a wonderful delicacies that you relish and can’t stop asking for more.

Okra is also consumed in other parts of the world. Though some people find this veggie unattractive because of the appearance (if you hate slime then you will hate Okra); okra when cooked is slimy this is why we love it because this makes it very easy for us to swallow our Eba and Fufu. You can also use it for Amala and semovita (these are local dishes in Africa) most especially in Nigeria.

Some places in South America uses it as part of their cuisines. Places such as Louisiana prepare a soup known as the official state cuisine and it is popularly known as gumbo.

While superstitions and personal believes are some of the reasons people don’t consume okra in Africa in other clime it is not common maybe because of the slimy nature of the veggie after preparations but all these cannot take away the fact that okra is well endowed with a lot of nutrition for human use and health.

Why should I eat or consume Okra?

Okra is slimy in appearance after preparation but it contains a lot of nutrients such as: Carbohydrate, protein, fibre, Magnesium, Folate, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin K, and Vitamin B6. Some of these vitamins are good for human use because they provides immunity for the human body, helps in blood clotting due to the provision of fat soluble vitamins it supplies to the body all these claims are gotten from nutritional experts and trusted sources on the internet).

All the vitamins and calories contained in Okra are in different quantities. Okra contains low calories and carbohydrates and you can get enough protein and fibre. Okra is a very special vegetable /fruits because it contains a lot of nutrients that may not be found in other vegetables and some fruits.

You want to manage your weight?

If you are one of those who watches your weight and will need a lot of protein to make this work then you need to take advantage of the protein contained in okra for managing your weight.

Are you having issues with your blood sugar? Then okra is recommended for your consumption to regulate your blood sugar. There are other benefits of Okra that we will consider as I continue with my series on okra.

WHAT'S IN A NAME? CORONA AND COVID

2020-05-20T15:33:00.005+01:00

What’s in a name? In Africa, where i am from, we attach a lot of importance to the name we give to our children or any endeavour that are of importance to us. This is because we believe that whatever you become in future may depend on the name you choose to bear or the name given to from birth. This believe plays a lot in our decisions concerning things we do and the way we behave. That is why we attach respects to the way we treat ourselves and those who are older in age than we are. The importation of foreign ideas into Africa has change our reasoning and we no longer attach any importance to this things again. When I was growing up, every name we give to our children is attached to mostly our believe in the type of God we serve. In other words, religion influenced our naming ceremony. The Christians will name their children after the Christian God or Jesus Christ such names as Paul, Ezekiel, Miracle, Testimony and many more names. If you are from my tribe the Yoruba speaking people of Nigeria you will hear names such as Toluwanimi (I am the Lord’s own),

Iyanuoluwa (the wonders of the Lord), and Oluwaseun (the Lord as done it). The other religions in African can be the Islamic religion and people who practiced this religion will name their children after the God they serve and there are various names to prove this believe such as Abdulsodiq, Abdulkareem and Mustapha and many more. In Africa, we also have people who still practice the traditional religion and they name their Children after the gods they serve. Whatever you may think about this, it works for those of us who believe in it Looking at my background then you should not be amazed if I said that I am really not amused when I heard about a couple naming their twin children after the pandemic virus “A couple in India’s central state of Chhattisgarh have named their newborn twins Corona and Covid amid the country’s nationwide lockdown brought on by the coronavirus pandemic.” Well the couple claim the name their kids Corona and Covid because of the difficulties they encountered during the period leading to the birth of the children. Hmmm, come to think of it such situations also happen in my culture. When people travel abroad and give birth to children during their journey, they sometimes name their children after such, even when people give birth when they build a house or are dedication such a house they name their children after such events. But naming your twin boy and girl, after a pandemic simply because you want to remember your difficulties you encountered during their birth is what I cannot understand. The news agency Press Trust of India reported that “The couple said the names would remind them about the hardships they faced during the lockdown and before the

successful delivery, the couple had no help at the time of delivery as their family members could not reach Raipur due to the lockdown” The name Corona means crown in Latin. But how many people around the world will realise this? Will these children love these names as they begin to grow up? For those who have lost loved ones during this period, will they want a reminder of such events? Well the couple said they want the fear associated with these names to end and the public to focus on sanitation and hygiene. But just as I thought some family members also tried to put pressure on the couple not to name the children after the pandemic. The corona virus in India continue to rise but in a country of over 1.3 billion population having a 3000 infection cases and 68 deaths is still better than the number of corona virus infections in the united states, Italy and China.

YAHOOMAIL AND ACCOUNT SUSPENSION

2012-07-18T09:08:00.001+01:00

I have been using the yahoomail for over 10years and was amazed when without notice or any information the account was suspended. I could not understand why and have chosen not to do anything about it until i heard and discovered that many account have been suspended in such fashion most especially from people living within my country of abode. For those who have contacted yahoo for a response you will be amazed at what was given as reasons for suspending account from my country Nigeria. From my research i was told that If you are from my country Nigeria, yahoo does not expect you to use their email account for over 10years, so any account that is over 10years old will be suspended simply because people from my region usually engage in fraudulent activities, so therefore anyone with such account will stand the risk of the account being suspended. Hence if you are using your Yahoomail account as back up for any of your important document then you need to start looking for alternate means or else you will experience all i have experienced: you may end up loosing all your important documents and files that you may not be able to retrieve. I will suggest you start looking in the direction of other email services such as gmail, aol, hotmail and the rest of the email service providers just to keep your self safe from any form of embarrassment. As the wise men said "to be fore warned is to before harmed" Just my personal experience.

Places you can visit in the northern part of Africa.

2010-10-05T12:14:00.002+01:00

Africa is a wonderful place with regions where the various colors, creed and languages are scattered. The northern part of the region basically is occupied by the people of light skin color and most of them are descendant of the Arab tribe. Some of the countries in the northern part of Africa includes; Egypt, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Chad, and Libya. All these countries speak the French and Arabic languages. Most of them have border lines close to either Europe or the Middle East. Many people around the world have no information about the beautiful places in Africa. most news agencies in the world most especially in the developed countries of the such as the CNN, Sky News, and even aljazeera can still do more about projecting places in Africa. the only breaking news carried by these agencies are often not the positive ones, things can get better.

Landmarks and tourist attractions

These countries have important places that can be referred to as landmarks and tourist attractions that are worth paying a visit to at least once in a lifetime. I want to believe that Africa is the cradle of civilization that is why developments in Egypt cannot be ignored. That is why there are very unique places of interest and archeological interest in the land of Egypt.

Interesting places in Egypt

A mention of Egypt will not be complete without mentioning the Pharaoh that ruled the ancient countries in the past. We will also not be doing justice to the land without mentioning those things achieved by these Pharaohs during their reign. One of the Pharaoh that achieved greatness in Egypt was Ramesses II. He was the one that created the amazing edifice that made Abu Simbel a place of importance in Egypt; this is because of the two temples carved out from sandstone cliffs near River Nile. These temples have been in existence over 3 millenniums ago.

Some other important places to visit in Egypt are the famous pyramids located at Giza some few kilometers south of Cairo. These pyramids are so famous that even Hollywood cannot ignore films shots on these locations. These important pyramids made Egypt a very important place in tourist attractions all over the world. These over 100 pyramids were the tombs of dead Pharaohs in the ancient past. They also served as altars through which food sacrifices were offered to the dead pharaohs many years after they have died.

An example of the pyramids is the tomb of Pharaoh Khufu a.k.a Pharaoh Cheops which happens to be the greatest of all the pyramids.

Your visit to Egypt will be incomplete if you fail to pay a visit to the Sphinx. This is the site of the great statue of half human and half lion. This statue is regarded as one of the largest and oldest statue in the world.

If you are in Egypt then please take time out to visit the valleys of the kings. This place is so called because it is the place where kings and nobles were buried in tombs. These burial rites took place in the 16th and the 11th centuries BC. This valley is located on the west bank of the river Nile near Luxor. Archaeological antiquities can be discovered from this site that became very famous in 1922 when the tomb of Tutankhamum was discovered without any alterations in the way it was laid. A visit to Karnak a place located very close to Luxor will bring you to one of the largest temples sites in the whole of Egypt. This is because three main temples where merged together. You will also get to see the temple of Amun the largest and the most impressive temple in the whole of Egypt.

Egypt is just one of the beautiful countries in the north of Africa; imagine what is left to be discovered in the other countries in this region. Your guess is as good as mine.

Places you can visit in Africa

2010-10-05T12:06:00.000+01:00

Africa: the best continent on the face of the Universe. I know many people will argue this fact with me but whatever you choose to say, I believe I have the right to my on opinion and maybe by the time I line out my reasons to support my believe then I might be able to convince you to feel the same way I feel about the continent called Africa. I am proudly African.

What makes Africa the best continent on the face of the Universe?

Countries in Africa: there are over fifty beautiful and easy to live in countries in Africa and they are; Algeria, Angola, Benin, Botswana, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameron, Cape Verde, Central African Republic, Chad, Comoros, Democratic Republic Of Congo, Congo, Cote d’Ivoire, Djibouti, Egypt, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Gabon, Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea Bissau, Kenya, Lesotho, Liberia, Libya, Madagascar, Malawi, Mali, Mauritania, Mauritius, Morocco, Mozambique, Namibia, Niger, Nigeria, Reunion, Rwanda, Sao Tome and Principe, Senegal, Seychelles, Sierra Leone, Somalia, South Africa, Sudan, Swaziland, Tanzania, Togo, Tunisia, Uganda, Zambia, Zimbabwe. These countries have gone through the pre-colonization, colonization and post-colonization periods, all these have contributed in forming and shaping what can be referred to as the culture and traditions of these various countries. Despite all that was taken away by the colonial masters, Africa still remains a very wealthy continent save for bad leadership in the various regions in Africa.

The things that makes Africa a unique place to visit

The clement weather; the weather in the various part of Africa from the north to the south and the east to the west is the best around the world; the rainy season, the sunny and every other season in Africa agree with the people living in the continent. This is a continent that has recorded the least natural disaster compared to the other part of the world.

The natural resources: One thing that is wonderful about the continent of Africa is the level and quantity of natural resources that has been deposited in the various part of the continent. There is no continent in the entire world that can lay claim to these level or quantity of resources. Apart from oil that has become a common commodity of the whole world, there are also many other resources that the whole world will kill to get. Talk about the Gold, Diamond (the blood diamond all over the world especially in Europe and the Americas), the Bauxite, the Ore, Cocoa deposit and many other deposits on the continent.

The People: I have seen people from all around the world but the friendliest and accommodating of all resides in Africa. Africa is where we have the sense of community, a place where you will always have people to care for you even when they are not even members of your family. A place where you can wake up in the middle of the night and ask your neighbor for help, a place where you can miss a friend and decide to pay a visit without prior notice and you will be welcomed with open arms. Give me the name of another continent where this obtains and you will be able to prove me wrong.

The Languages and Colors: There are thousands of languages in the continent of Africa and also people of various colors and identity depending on the location of the country and the country that is responsible for the colonization of the territory, but despite this there is Unity in our Diversity. The more the languages we speak in Africa, the more the unity on the continent. The more the colors of the people, the more the love expressed from the heart of the people, one to another. Some of these languages includes but not limited to French, Arabic, English, Spanish, Tigrinya, Amharic, Portuguese, Sesotho, Swahili, Afrikaans, Yoruba, Hausa, Ibo, and many more. These are just the major languages in Africa and there are many more languages apart from these that are spoken locally in Africa.

Regions in Africa; Africa is a continent divided into 5 major regions. These regions are the north, south, east, west and the central Africa. These regions are made of countries and these countries make the continent tick. They have a lot of places than can be referred to as tourist attractions and these places have a lot to do with the evolution and development of the continent. Some of these places includes but not limited to the following;

1. Mountain Kilimanjaro in Tanzania
2. Abu Simbel a wonderful place in Egypt
3. The Victoria Falls located between the Zambia and Zimbabwe border
4. The great pyramids in Egypt
5. Obudu cattle ranch in Nigeria.
6. Fish RiverCanyon in Namibia
7. Okavango Delta in Botswana
8. Yankari Game Reserve
9. ParcNationalNyungweForest
10. MozambiqueIsland

These are some of the Places you can visit in Africa. I have heard of the expression “visit Paris and die” this is because of the beautiful places in Paris. Well, I am also telling you that you are not complete until you have been able to Visit some of these places in Africa. No matter what people have been saying about Africa; either positive or negative, you can only confirm or reject your belief only and only if you take your time to visit this wonderful continent; Africa, a land flowing with milk and honey.

How to manage change IV

2010-09-15T00:37:00.000+01:00

Take action before implementation of the change

You will need to be adequately prepared before you implement any form of change in your organization. You will need to make sure that adequate resources are available in your organization. Create a healthy environment because healthy people will easily adapt to changes and also deal with such. When you are in a leadership position you must be able to convince people and this can easily be done when you have track records of great achievement in dealing with people through the decisions you have taken, this will be handy when you are dealing with difficult situations in any organization. The preparation therefore involves good leadership that aims at preparing the foundation for any form of change.

Leadership must be focused and practical.

When change is announced the success of it depends on the part played by the leader. This is because the organization will go through a period of complete transformation which may lead to a lot of instability. Many of the subordinates will go through a period of fear which may result into low productivity, confusion and often times a partial emotional breakdown. This is because it is always very difficult to accept a feeling of loss and an uncertain future. That is why the leader must be ready to understand the feeling going on around within the organization and must be ready to acknowledge that such feelings needs to be addressed.

Working adequately with the subordinate on how to create a feeling of understanding amongst the workers, about the new change that has taken place and how to move forward with the change is required in a good leader whether you are heading a business or you are in government. You must know the period when your people are going through pains so that you can easily address this and also know when to let them know that it is time to move forward.

The period after the change has taken place.

Though you have successfully implemented the change required in your organization, you still need to make sure that you are still close to the people the change might have affected. You will be able to know if the emotional tension has reduced and that the situation around you has become more stable than it was before and during the implementation of the change. You need to know if your people are now adjusting to the new way of life in the new dispensation. Effective leadership will make your subordinates agree to follow your steps as you move them forward in this new dispensation. A failure to do this might lead to doom for your organization.

Portraying the picture of a better future and working earnestly to meet the requirement of this future will bring you closer to your subordinates

Changes in society, businesses and even in policy have brought mighty men, leaders and even government to her kneels. Carefully taken steps by leaders during period of change may increase productivity of your workers but if your steps are taken roughly then you should wait for the poor results that will be inevitable. Do all you can to understand what is needed during times of change and you will be amazed at how well you can handle situations.

How to manage change III

2010-09-15T00:32:00.000+01:00

Leadership and change

Any form of change that is taking place in any organization will fail if there are no effective leaders in such organization. The management of such an organization will do well if it can apply the necessary tools it is being paid for in the successful implementation of the change. You should expect that that this process will be painful, traumatic and even negative. That is why you need to expect a lot resistance because the change will definitely affect the lives of everyone working in that organization.

Leadership is as important as the air that you breathe in the successful implementation of change. The ability, competence and the respect and credibility that the management commands from their subordinates will go a long way in the success of the change. There are ways or paths through which you and your subordinates can follow to get through any difficulty that might be encountered through this process of change.

Importance of leadership

The effects of change can be easily overcome when the leadership is up to task. This will be noticed through the faith the subordinates have in the leaders during the times of change. The faith will be renewed through effective communication, sensible planning and timely effective decision making. You need to show to your subordinates that you understand their plight and that they could count on your support during this period. When the level of trust between the two is on the increase then there will be hope that the future is going to be very bright and the negative effects of the change can be easily overcome.

Poor leadership

When the leadership of any organization is poor then response to change by employees will be negative. This is because employees will not be able to trust the leadership and will expect nothing positive from them. The impact of change on any organization cannot be ignored that is why the leadership must be ready to create and environment that is conducive to all that are involved in the process of change.

Your process of change should be handled from before the implementation, during the implementation and even after the implementation. That is why you need to have the basic knowledge of handling change, so that when it occurs you will be able to effectively handle it.

Stages of resistance to change

Anger and resistance is the next stage that people exhibit towards change. This usually occurs when people can no longer deny that change is inevitable. If you are a manager you will need to make sure that you know how to manage this particular stage, this is because this stage is the most critical stage in the process of change and if poorly handle it may affect the proper implementation of the change. You will need to come to a state of understanding, act as a true leader so as to move your followers from this stage to the next one. Ones you fail in your leadership capabilities then you can kiss the change good bye.

Your success in this stage of anger and resistance will lead to the next stage which is Exploration and acceptance. This stage will take place after the change has been seen to be an inevitable occurrence. Your followers will now tends towards exploring the change and steps will be taken towards accepting the change. You should now expect your followers to express their opinions about the change and your can also expect them to join you in planning on the change and how to make the best use of the change that has taken place. Their open-mindedness should be seen as a positive development and they will therefore participate in the process of change.

The final stage in the process of change is Commitment. This is when you expect the willing attitude from your followers and efforts will be made towards the success of the change. You will now notice that your followers or subordinates are now adapting to the change and are ready to make it work. Though not all change will be acceptable to your subordinates but ones your particular kind of change has been accepted then the success of your organization will be upper most in their mind

The steps above are necessary for change and ones this stages are missing in your process of change then you need to worry because you will not be able to deal with these reactions that are necessary in situations of change. Any reactions that are not dealt with might lead to the failure of your organization. Do not assume that all will be well without facing the reality of the possible resistance to the change process.

How you can manage change

2010-09-15T00:22:00.000+01:00

It is a common saying that change is a constant thing in life. Despite the truthfulness in this saying people still find it difficult to adapt to change. Change can take place in the home front, country or even in the place of work. You will prove to be a success if you are able to manage the way people around respond to change. It will be a wrong assumption to believe that people around you will easily adapt to changes without any opposition, it is always very easy for people to hate what they do not know or understand. It is therefore in your place to make them understand these changes.

Why do people reject change?

People will often reject to change when they feel that their comfort place is being threatened. It is always very difficult when you feel that your familiar situation is going to change. That is why you need to make sure that whoever the change will affect must be made to understand the reasons for the change and make them to embrace this change in the most reasonable and effective way. There are stages in the way people understand change, as a leader or a manager you will need to understand these stages and also understand the way it affects the people and you also need to caution yourself so that you will not over react when you notice resistance in your followers.

Noticeable processes in changes

When the HIV/AIDS disease was first isolated, there were many reactions toward this revelation from the people. Some people refuse to believe that this disease is real, in my own country it was believed that the disease was just and invention by the Americans to discourage sex hence, the meaning given to AIDS as American invention to discourage sex. This is simply because people refuse to change the way they live their sexual life. Some even said that the disease does not exist, that they will only believe if they see someone dying of the disease. This is called a state of denial. This is usually the first way through which people react to change.
Why do people deny change?

One major fact that has been established for denial is the issue of fear. This is because people tend to exhibit fear towards any form of prospective change and this makes it difficulty for any form of planning towards the future.

ON GAYS MARRIAGES AND RELATIONSHIPS. (Same sex marriages and relationships)

2010-08-22T21:43:00.002+01:00

I know that a lot of people will criticize me for writing on this controversial topic. One thing I will like to do is to hinge my opinion on the freedom of speech, which is something that is embedded in all constitution all over the world. Even Saddam during his reign knows the importance of this, that is why he did all he could to suppress the citizens in his country.
It really does not matter what you think about me all I know is that I have the right to my opinion. Just as you have a right to sleep with whomever you feel like sleeping with whether man, woman, animal or alien, the choice is your.

Why Gay: Marriages or Relationships
Well I have chosen to talk about this topic because of the effect it is having on all human race and even on the body of Christ known as the church. I may be seen as being biased by those who do not believe in Jesus Christ whom I believe and confess as my personal Lord and savior. I am beginning to feel that this issue has degenerated so much to the extent that even the church is now engrossed in it.
There are now many churches around the world that are encouraging this act. Not only encouraging the act, there are now men of God or clergy men who practice such acts. This is something that I personally feel should be discouraged. This is my personal view about gay relationships and marriages and I owe no man any apologies. Until we meet at the presence of the almighty creator, who knows everything

What is gay or being a gay person?
Gay to me is simple referring to any person that is a homosexual. Homosexual on the other hand is when someone is attracted to the people of the same sex. This act can take place between male to male and it can also take place between female to another female.
This act is not new to our generation it is an act that has existed from history and it is viewed as an abomination. I was watching the film Spartacus and I saw the way the act was practiced and then begin to wonder if that is the exact situation that existed then; then sexual recklessness has been in the human race from time in memoriam.
The change in life
They say the only constant thing in life is change and I accept this fact. But one thing I have noticed is that the changes that are taking place in this life are from good to bad, positive to negative and no one is ready to make any difference by standing against such changes. In fact legislatures are now promulgating laws to support the act of homosexuals. One thing I know is that this is made possible because even our legislatures are engaged in the act. The acts of making life easy for the teaming populist are being neglected. People are waiting for improvement in housing policy, tax reduction, provision of good health services and cheap, good and clean schools for their children but all this is being neglected and we are facing crisis in the way that we choose to live our lives and turn around from the actual way God wanted us to live our lives. We are celebrating acts unbecoming of children of God.
You're smiling right now, or maybe you're angry? well the truth is always hurtful.Just hold till i conclude my writing then you can comment or call for my head.

ON GAYS MARRIAGES AND RELATIONSHIPS. (Same sex marriages and relationships)II

2010-08-22T21:40:00.000+01:00

What can we do about this?
Nothing, this is because every man has his own life to live, for those who believe in God and you are living your life to please the devil then you need to know that we will all give account of our acts and deeds on the day of reckoning

The Place of God and your wealth
You have all the wealth you want in life, you are very famous and the whole world loves you. You are not a star in the real sense of the world but you have a high paying job that makes you the toast of you friends. Then you made up your mind to thank God for all he has given you by turning around to do those things that will make him unhappy. You take drugs on a daily basis, you became addicted, the people of the opposite sex are no longer attractive to you and you now sleep with the people of the same sex with you. Do you know what God says about you?

“And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God has gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient” Romans 1:28

“If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.” Leviticus 20:13
I have the fear of God in my life and I will not allow him to give me up for a reprobate mind. That is why I will not use my cock meant to have sex with my wife to fuck the asshole of another man like me. The asshole that is meant to pass out excretion. No I will not do that. All that you have now that has given you what you refer to as social security can be taken away from you within a second, you do not own your life. Someone created you and when he is fed up with you misbehavior he can easily take you away from all that you think you have.
God has given us the commandment for us to live our lives and all we have the free will to do whatever we feel is right. You have the right to be gay if you want but think about it, will you make heaven? What am I even saying; maybe you do not even believe that there is God or even a heaven? All is left for you to decide. One thing I know is that live your life has if there is no tomorrow so that you can live a legacy for you future generation.

Same sex marriage:
No matter what you do to justify you action what is bad cannot be changed by giving it a good name. Man and woman cannot engage in same sex marriages and feel they are justifying themselves. I do not care what have been written to support this act. It is not my business. Same sex marriage is evil and should not be encouraged.
It is your right
I know many of you will be furious at this writing if that is the case why don’t you leave your comment so that I know where you stand. Maybe you can change my conception which I doubt. But there is no harm in trying. Have you ever sat down to think about it? What is your conscience telling you about it? Why are you in it? Oh, you will tell me that it is safe, well maybe you have not watched the film Philadelphia by Tom Hanks? Or maybe you will tell me that you can encourage your children to engage in this act. Where then is the place of recreation if all of us should decide to engage in same sex marriages. The human race should then be ready for extinction. Or you are so foolish you never though about it that the man or the woman you are practicing your lesbianism and homosexual act with were given birth to through natural process of marriage. You really need to think deep about all these

What is e-whatever?

Click edit above to add content to this empty capsule.

Well the world has changed a lot and people refer to it as a global village since the introduction of the computer into almost everything we do in the world. We now use computer to do every thing doable; we have the e-commerce, e-economics, e-trading, e-banking and many order eees.

It is a good thing that convenience is now coming into all that we do. you can stay in your room to do a lot of thing that would have required your going in and out of your home. You can stay in your room and carry out some trading with someone in the opposite region of the world from you without going out of your room that is referred to as e-trading. You can stay in your room and just by clicks on your computer booked a flight from one location to another, you can even order for foods, electronics, cars, and even women just by clicking on your computer. These are amazing things to do.

The reality

Click edit above to add content to this empty capsule.

With all i have mentioned above you can realize that people are beginning to enjoy this development. I have heard of couples that have gotten married just by meeting on the Internet and their marriage still exists. I have heard of millionaires who are genuinely making money on the Internet without cheating or scamming other people. These are great developments, but what percentage of the Internet users fall within this range. The reality on ground is that many people are still being had, cheated or scammed on the Internet because they do not know the simple basic 1,2,3 of using the Internet. This is why we need to make sure that these people are educated from time to time. The computer/ Internet is a great development but with every advantages there are also disadvantages, this is the real fact.

You may be wondering why i am taking time out to talk about this topic, well maybe it is because i live in that part of the world where the computer and its use is just gaining ground. This is why many people are loosing, money, identity and even belongings to unknown people on the Internet. The simple basic thing you need to know when you trade or bank on the Internet is that you need to take a lot of care.

1. You need to check out the site or sites that you are dealing with.

2. You need to watch out before you reveal any information to any third party on the Internet.

3. You must not click any link on notifications sent to your email by any third without confirming from whomever you are dealing with, this is because most of these links are often sent by scammers who are in need of your personal information.

I am actually saying this because many people are still unable to use their ATM cards with care, so if you have your master card, your visa card or you are using the electronic method of payment different from the ones i have mentioned such as the paypal, e-gold, liberty serve or whatever other means then you need to be very careful on how you disclose your information. Concerning your ATM, Visa card, Master card and others you are not to reveal your PIN( personal identification numbers) to anybody.

When you use you information on the Internet make sure you restart your system after use or delete all cookies especially when you are browsing on a public computer( cyber cafe).

You cannot continue to let people steal your hard earned money because of your ignorance, make sure you get as much information about e-whatever before you start using it. Better safe than regret.

how to explore the invention called google

What is google?

Click edit above to add content to this empty capsule.

I really I'm not sure that i really know what i want to write about, maybe because i really want to know about it. I have been using the internet for so long that i cannot even remember the years. one thing i really can remember is the fact that google has always been there and has always deliver on almost everything that you may want to know about on the internet.

The question i will want to ask is what is explore? to explore a thing simply means that you have enough time to examine a thing to get the right information or discover facts about such a thing or travel through a place that is not familiar to you and you gather as much information about that place that will be useful to you at present or in the future. If this is actually the definition of explore that i am really not sure of, then that means you will need to do all these if you have the intention of enjoying all the benefits that is available on Google.

What then is Google? to many Google is just an ordinary search engine. if this is also your view about Google then you are missing a lot. Google goes beyond being an ordinary search engine; it is the largest and the most scalable platform that you can visit on the internet. The web- based application of Google is huge and readily accessible.

Talk about the database, the data sets, peta byte and a very good file system. These are just some of the things that distinguish Google from all other search engine platform on the internet.

how to make money and more money on the internet

2010-07-21T14:35:00.000+01:00
confusion reigns

I have been on hub-pages and so many other article sites for so many years without making money, i mean real money from all my efforts. one thing i came to realize is that most faults about my not making money is not about any body,s fault or due to the fact that i have been duped, scam or misinformed. The first thing i realize is that the internet article work is not meant for lazy bones like myself (please disregard what anybody might have told you about making money on the net as being the easiest thing to do) all i am saying is that making money on the net takes a lot of effort and hard work. You need to write a lot of articles, you need to choose you topics carefully and clearly, and you need to make sure that you are writing topics that can easily be accessed by search engines.

I my efforts to get down to making money on the internet, i have read a lot of articles about making money on the internet from various writers. most of these writers have tried to explain the simple basic ways of making money on the internet but the more i read the more i get confused. The more i know the more i realize that i know nothing. I have gone through a lot of articles and i have discovered some basic facts, some of them are as follow:

things to do;

The first thing you need to do is to write a lot of article, i mean a lot-you can see why i said the process is not for lazy bones.

Secondly, you need to make sure that the topic you pick is the one that will attract a lot of advertisers to your articles, make sure that people are actually interested in the things you are writing about. This is where you need to make a lot of research before you pick a topic.

Thirdly, you need to be specific in the things you write

Search the net before you, write make sure that people are searching regularly for the topic you are writing about.

Learn terms that are applicable to what you are writing about and make good use of these terms.

Become an experts in what you write about so that you can answer questions on topics and also keep on writing on those things that you are good about. This can be done if you follow how you articles are doing and then concentrate your efforts on those article that are doing very well.

IS AMERICA A CHEAT?

2008-09-23T04:35:00.003+01:00

THE LAND OF OPPORTUNITY
Click edit above to add content to this empty capsule.

THE LAND OF OPPORTUNITYI really do love America because i believe that America is the country of opportunity. A country of justice and equal rights. A place where no one will be cheated. the cradle of modern day democracy.

i refuse to consider the injustice done to my forefathers in that strange land called America. i want to ignore the fact that many of my brothers where taken by force as slaves; to work on the sugar cane plantation. i want to refuse to say anything about the Justification of Africa asking for reparation based on the fact most of the resources of Africa was used to developed the modern world today. And Africa was left alone to suffer after many years of injustice.

But so many other things are now happening that makes me to say huh, just like Arsenio Hall.

AMERICA AND THE WORLD
Click edit above to add content to this empty capsule.
Most people around the world today have their reservation about the united state of America. this is not based on the fact that America is fighting for justice or fighting against terrorist and terrorism. Most people are just not happy with the fact that America is using double standard in her approach to this fight. you may want to find it hard to believe if i should tell you that the fight against terror is not a fight against terror but another round of fight for the resources of countries around the world. America will go all over the world to fight terrorist not minding how many young America soldiers die in battle, as long as she can control the whole world. As long as the leaders of the world are at her beck and call. you can call this a CONSPIRACY THEORY i don't mind . But take a look at this.

THE WAR FOR THE RESOURCES
Click edit above to add content to this empty capsule.

The war against terror started in 1991 when the late Saddam Hussain invaded Kuwait. this was just a ploy by Saddam to take possession of the resources that is in abundance in that country. The United States of America Responded to this invasion by forming a coalition to fight against Saddam many countries where involved in these fight. Many soldiers where lost and at the end of everything money was shared. many leaders stole this money, they call the money the gulf war wind fall. Many innocent civilians also died during this period but no one cares. They are just collateral damage that occurred during the war.

Saddam survived the first war. But he will not be quite he will still continue to challenge the superiority of America. He was accused of having Chemical or nuclear weapon. Another war began in 2003, he was captured and executed. but there was no chemical weapon in Iraq. the war was just to gain control of the oil wells in Iraq. Many soldiers and innocent civilian died. Many more are still dying just over the oil wells of Iraq. This has always been the real situation but despite all these i still love America and Americans. I love the sports, the music, the movies, the stars. Until the Olympic disgrace of their athletes.

Day Trading

Day traders buy and sell stocks throughout the day knowing that the price of the stocks will fluctuate in value during the day, allowing them to earn quick profits. A day trader will hold a stock anywhere from a few seconds to a few hours, but will always sell all of those stocks before the close of each day. The day trader will therefore not own any positions at the close of any day. The objective of day trading is to quickly get in and out of any particular stock for a profit.

Swing Traders

The principal difference between day trading and swing trading is that swing traders will normally have a slightly longer time horizon than day traders for holding a position in a stock. Swing trading has the capability of providing higher returns than day trading. However, unlike day traders who liquidate their positions at the end of each day, swing traders assume them overnight.

HOW TO AVOID STRESS

2008-07-25T17:53:00.001+01:00

Taking care of a pregnant woman for the required period before the birth of the baby takes a lot from both the woman and the husband, both financially and otherwise.taking all these into consideration, it will then be a sad thing to now give birth to this baby and now discover that there are(is) a deformity with this child.We all no what parents with heart deformities in their baby go through, it is not a pleasant thing at all not for the baby or the parent who will do any thing to prevent the death of the baby.

Babies are special gift from God and nobody will pray to have a deformed baby that is why all care must be taken to prevent infections that can affect our babies after birth.The major way to prevent this sort of deformity lies with the woman,Because research has shown that pregnant women with UTI(urinary tract infections)that has not been properly treated stand the risk of having babies with abnormal heart. I read this and i believe it will be wonderful for others to know

''Pregnant women with a UTI infection from one month before conception through the first trimester of pregnancy(three months of pregnancy).Are 70% likely to have such defect than women without UTI.Urinary tract infections are a serious problem that affect a lot of people worldwide.they are the most common type of infection in the body and according to the experts women are more prone to this infection, but reason for this is still being studied.One woman out of five develops a UTI during her lifetime.

Men are not that prone to having this infection but whenever they do it is always very serious because of the symptoms.But not every one that has this infection exhibits the symptoms.the most common symptoms include frequent urge to urinate and a painful,burning feeling when urinating.

According to research the use of vitamins,folic acid and other factors such as age ,race,ethnicity,exposure to sulfonamidedrugs or even the exposure of such babies to various environmental factors such as alcohol had no effect on determining which baby may end up having this defects.

Birth defects can affect any part of the organ such as the brain, heart,lungs,liver,bones and the intestines and there are many reasons for such defect which include inherited conditions,toxic exposures of the unborn baby, birth injury and in many cases for unknown reasons.

But from researches carried out on women in the university of Arkansas for Medical Sciences headed by doctor Mario Cl eves and his team it was established that mothers of children with this deformities are more likely to report having UTI at some point in their pregnancy.

PREVENTION:

Doctor therefore suggest that to prevent this urinary tract infection, a woman should do the following:

DRINK PLENTY OF WATER EVERY DAY

URINATE WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE ; DO NOT RESIST THE URGE TO URINATE.

WIPE FROM FRONT TO BACK TO PREVENT BACTERIA FROM AROUND THE ANUS FROM ENTERING THE VAGINA.

TAKE SHOWERS INSTEAD OF TUB BATH

CLEANSE THE GENITAL AREA BEFORE SEXUAL INTERCOURSE

AVOID USING FEMININE HYGIENE SPRAYS AND SCENTED DOUCHES,WHICH MAY IRRITATE THE URETHRA.

KEEP THE VAGINAL AREA CLEAN, WIPING FROM FRONT TO BACK AFTER A BOWEL MOVEMENT TO PREVENT CONTAMINATION OF THE URINARY TRACT.

USE TAMPONS AND CHANGE EVERY THREE TO FOUR HOURS,INSTEAD OF SANITARY PADS(THE PADS CAN ACT AS A CULTURE MEDIUM FOR FAE CAL BACTERIA,WHICH MAY THEN BE RUBBED AGAINST THE URINARY OUTLET AND INVADE THE BLADDER)
