<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; text-align: justify;">So it was another morning last Monday and I was out
early that morning. And as I drove around the beautiful city of Lagos, I paid
attention to very many people on their way to work. Many were by the roadside
waiting to board a vehicle, many were in commercial buses and taxi cabs, some
were in their company buses and very many were in private cars all on their way
to work or place of business.</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">I paid attention to all these people, I peered at
their faces and observed their body language and believe me, it wasn't an
encouraging observation. Nearly everyone looked very tired and unhappy. Though
it was the start of a brand new working week, everyone looked very tired and
overworked. No one appeared excited, motivated, inspired or happy to be on
their way to work. Nearly everyone looked very tired. Some were even asleep in
the cars and the ones awake were lost in thought and had this worried and
distressed expression on their faces.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Lagos, a beautiful contemporary city of style, class
and taste with great aquatic splendour, strong enough to inspire anyone; but
the residents didn't look inspired, motivated or happy to live in such a
wonderful city last Monday morning. Most people looked very tired, stressed and
uninspired.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Tired on a Monday morning? Why? Why are we tired
after a weekend? Hmmn.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">This got me thinking and I figured many may perhaps
be tired because they are working very hard, most people are working non-stop,
most people are working round the clock, but the big question is where is the
result of this hard work, where is the evidence?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">I think the reason many of us are working so hard
and have nothing impressive to show for it is because we are working hard but
working wrong.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">We're using the right energy for the wrong purpose
hence, we lack impressive returns.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">You see, beyond our individual lives that may not
reflect results reflecting the enormity of our hard work, our corporate
existence also in terms of structures, processes, institutions, public service,
business management and public administration are also not fantastic
nation-wide. Most companies, institutions, business and infrastructure
management is way behind compared to even some other African countries.
Banking, transportation, immigration, aviation, hospitality, environment,
security and even commerce - there's frustration everywhere. So how come people
are so hardworking yet nothing is working well? Hmm<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Truth is, ladies and gentlemen, our hard work
appears to be a futile one and we are mostly working wrong.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Many days ago, I wanted to be sure which was more
tiring, physical work or mental work, so I researched and discovered that
mental work is more tiring than physical work. Mental exertion is more tiring
than physical exertion. And the reason is simple. It is possible to pause, and
rest or completely stop physical exertion and refrain from work when you choose
to. You can decide to stop the physical activity and rest, you can sit for a
while, lie down for a while and take positions that will offer your body the
needed rest. However, when your mind is working; when serious thinking is
on-going, the likelihood that your emotions would connect with your thought is
high because your mind, will and emotions are all located within your soul. So
your emotions mix with your thoughts, when this happens, even when you're
mentally tired, you lack the power or capacity to stop thinking because of the
emotions. No matter how hard you try to stop thinking about an issue, your mind
will still find its way back to it if that matter is very important. This is
the reason why mental work is more tiring than physical work, it's hard to stop
working mentally no matter how tired you are but it's easy to stop physical
work once you've had enough.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Now the reality is, mental work leads to virtual
productivity but it is physical work that brings about physical productivity.
Whatever your mind develops is invisible, unless and until it's physically
applied, created or implemented, it cannot benefit anyone.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">In my opinion, many of us are mentally industrious
but lack physical productivity, that's why we're so tired yet there's no
physical evidence of our hard work.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">The second important problem is what our mind is
busy working at. Many of us think so hard for a very long time everyday not on
productive matters or creativity tasks or problem solving but on fearful and
depressing situations.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Our minds are working so hard, processing matters of
fear, insecurity, anger, suspicion, regret, self-pity, offence, envy, strife
and uncertainty of the future.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Our minds are so busy with over thinking, over
analysis and over processing of troubles, problems and crisis we fear may occur
in the near future.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Many of us are tired, not because of physical work
but because our minds are loaded with unending worries, our minds are working
non-stop it's so hard to get our physical bodies to do anything useful, hence
we're tired and drained of energy even on a Monday morning yet, have nothing to
show for out fatigue, no productivity. Am I talking to someone this morning?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Analysis paralysis, over thinking, many of us dwell
for hours on these issues and the following thoughts, what will my boss do to
me today, he is so wicked and insensitive, what's my employer planning to do
with me, will he pay salaries this month, what is my client thinking, hope they
won't end the contract based on how the economy is, what's the plan of this my
desperate colleague, what can be his next mischievous move, I need to be a step
ahead of him or her, will I be promoted this year, this my oga may not
recommend me o, ha, I've not sent money to my parents for some time now, I
don't even have enough for myself, they must really be mad at me now, what sort
of child am I, it's not even mid-month yet and my salary is almost finished,
how will I survive till month end, no one will lend me money, I hear they're
planning retrenchment in our office, I pray my name don't make the list o, what
will I do, I'll just die, this my husband that has suddenly pass worded his
phone, what is he up to now, who is that person he's always chatting with and
smiling, is he cheating on me, I must find out, my wife is suddenly fond of her
boss and they're now spending more time together in the name of work, is
anything fishy going on, I must know, Oh, a new session is about to begin, how
will I pay school fees, the rent is about to expire, how will I pay rent, my
car has become very problematic it keeps disgracing me, when will I have the
money to replace it.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Over thinking, worry, worry, worry, we become so
tired and we really can't tell why.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Ask yourself this question and be sincere, how many
things do you really do physically in a day? How really physically productive
are you, are you working physically every hour back to back? So why are you
always very tired? Is it a case of mental exertion on matters that don't
produce nothing? Worry is extreme hard work, you just don't realise, that's why
most of the day you're sitting in one spot yet you're so tired.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Ladies and gentlemen, to convert your mental labour
to productivity, take your mind off what could be, take your mind off
situations and events that are negative and scary, and focus on daily to dos,
not daily to worry.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">List the things you want to do every day and go
ahead and do them. Ask yourself, what am I doing today, List them and do them.
When you become physically involved in work, worry is mitigated. Throw yourself
into physical productivity by being deliberate with physical work and your
mental fatigue will cease to be an issue. In fact you will become happier.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Ladies and gentlemen, beyond hard work, become
productive.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

AVOIDING BAD MARRIAGE

<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">AVOIDING
A BAD MARRIAGE<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">After salvation. The most
important choice you will need to make is who to marry. This choice is so
important that if you miss it, you will suffer for long, if you get it right
then you will enjoy forever. A bad marriage can affect every other area of your
life. This subject is so important. So many married people are hoping to be
single again so as to make the right choice. If you are single please don’t just
be in hurry to get married. You have the best opportunity to prepare for it.
For two people to come together to live in peace and harmony, they must agree
spiritually, mentally and physically. Just like an elephant cannot marry an ant
so also a believer cannot marry an unbeliever. If an elephant marries an ant
how would they live? If goat married fish where would they meet? You must look
for a godly man or a godly woman to marry, nothing can beat this. The devil’s
primary target is the family. He knows that everyone belongs to a family and if
he can make two wrong people meet then he has succeeded affecting the community
and nations negatively. Ignore your age and the pressure for a moment, the
pressure in a wrong marriage is far worse. God has somebody for you but you
must set your priorities right. What do you need in a woman? What do you need
in a man? Marriage is not about what you want, it is about who you need, and
that will make you better while you make him better. It is about destiny. That
is why you must know your purpose before you get married. (Genesis 2:18.) You
must pray before you choose. God know the best person for you. It is only wise
to seek His will. It is very easy to know God’s will when sex is not involved.
The moment sex is involved and you want to know His will then He will blank you
out. Why? Because you have broken His first law of NO SEX before marriage. If
you have had sex in the past then you need to repent totally and stay away from
each other for some time then you can seek the face of God. Your marriage will
not be hell on earth. Your marriage will be honorable in the name of God.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
