“If We Don’t Discipline Ourselves, the World Will Do It For Us.” ~ William Feather
Take a look at the following picture and you will see what indiscipline has done to Nigeria.
In this picture, a Lagos commercial bus driver (popularly called Dando driver) stops at the middle of the road in broad day light to urinate. And one can almost read his mind: “Nothing dey happen”, a popular slag meaning “Nothing will happen”. For how long my people shall such attitude continue to be tolerated? The words of William Feather comes in handy here and he says “If we don’t discipline ourselves, the world will do it for us.” This perhaps partially explain why the world gets tougher on us who carry the green passport; think about it.
No doubt, some of these offenders grew up to see attitudes like this as normal. But of course, this is worrisome; we cannot build a good and decent society if we continue like this.
To tackle problems like this, we need calculated and sustained campaigns aimed at re-orientation of the mind of the people. The National Orientation Agency needs to rise to this responsibility. Every state of the federation will also need to consciously put in place systems and processes to tackle this problem seriously. And while the orientation, or if you like, re-orientation campaigns run, there should be firm laws that punish deviant offenders to serve as deterrents. It’s either we kill indiscipline or indiscipline kills us.
In conclusion, I will re-echo the words of William Feather and he says “If we don’t discipline ourselves, the world will do it for us.”
Productivity: When Was The Last Time You Sharpened Your Axe?
At times, we forget to take care of the little things that help us achieve the big results.
A story is told of a strong woodcutter who sort a job from a timber merchant, and he got it. His salary was really good and so the woodcutter was determined to do his best.
His boss gave him an Axe and showed him the area where to fell trees.
The first day, the woodcutter brought fifteen (15) trees. And what followed?

Adolf Hitler’s Little Known Survival Strategy
For whatever you choose to do, be a master of your game!
Did you know that Hitler had food tasters? A living witness said they were about fifteen ladies forced to do that job. Hitler would only taste the food if the tasters survived after about one hour. He, Hitler knew what he was in for and he was into the game.

Two Powerful Ways Women Wield Power
A prayerful woman, with soft words, conquers hard men;
A physiologically endowed woman , with her body, humbles undisciplined men.
Why God is Patient
To mortal men, 100 years is like a long time;
To the immortal and everlasting God, a century is like a fleeting second.
Lessons from Peloponnese
Men who oppress the ‘seemingly’ less-privileged lack understanding; In fact, there is no sense of history in them.
Remember ’twas such aggression that provoked the Spartans into war with Athens. In the end, Athens could not finish what it had stirred up.

Your Hero Was Once Like a Failure
Life isn’t really about what you couldn’t do so far, it’s rather more about WHAT YOU CAN STILL ACHIEVE!
The men you revere today as heroes (like Bill Gates, Abraham Lincoln, Lionel Messi, Tony Blair, Ben Carson etc) once had challenges that made them look like failures. You don’t have to quit, that’s not how your hero made it. Heroes don’t quit. Listen to what some of them have to say:
the LUCKIEST DEER
At times in life,we are confronted on all sides . At such moments, remember the story of this pregnant deer. It is a real life inspirational story.
In a forest, a pregnant deer was about to give birth.
She went to a remote grass field near a strong-flowing river.
This seemed a safe place.
Now she was in labour.
