START WITH WHY

HEAL A FRACTURED WORLD COLUMN

                                                    START WITH WHY

Peace be to you all.

I intend for the rest of the year 2017 and beyond  to always share some thoughts with you every Monday morning as my contribution towards healing a fractured world.

The title of this piece was adopted from the book by Simon Sinek "START WITH WHY".

As we begin 2017, it is pertinent you ask yourself so many "why questions". I can help profer a little direction on how to navigate the undulating planes life presents.

The responsible life is the life that responds.

What are you responding to?

What do you intend to respond to in the new year?

Do you intend to follow any current as it flows?

Are you owing up to the actions that has held you back?

Are you ready to make peace with yourself?

Why do you take four steps forward and two steps backward?

Blame no one and no system. For as Brutus said ' the fault is not in our stars but in ourselves'.

Who is mighty? Not one who can conquer his enemies but one who can conquer himself

and to conquer yourself, please ask WHY.

Simon Sinek in his book explains that" people dont buy what you do but why you do it"

Why do you think you must live at this time and this age?

I have asked myself this question and came to the convictions and conclusion that I exist to Heal a Fractured world.   The healing can be physical or figurative  and that to me is what I intend to do with this post.  To help heal ignorance that has not made the world a better place

If you are interested in reading an e copy of the book by Simon Sinek forward your email to me and get a  copy.

Peace be with you all.

Rising Africa: A Narrative of Hope. By Chibu Ndubuisi

                                                                                      Rising Africa: A Narrative of Hope                                           07/08/2017 By Chibu Ndubuisi Peace be with you. In the year 2000, The Economist magazine called Africa "the hopeless continent" hence I am presenting a  narrative of hope about  "Our Rising Africa". The story of Africa is not about hunger,poverty, famine,war,  corruption,  tyranny, dictatorship,  terrorism,  child marriage,  genitial mutiliation, unfavourable inheritance laws for women, advance fee fraud, kidnapping,  ineffectual bureaucracy,  failure of leadership, workers not paid their salaries, sexual offences against children, genocide,  poor infrastructures,  diseases etc.i want to present a narrative of work in progress in African countries and how hope is been given back to people who once had "paradise lost". In their book, Execution: the Discipline of Getting Things Done(2002), aut

RESIST ARREST

                                                        RESIST ARREST                                                   CHIBU NDUBUISI 08/2017 Peace be to you. To resist anything requires knowledge and courage not to give in or yield to antics of entanglement. Captivity stifles and limits.  Captivity is not only when you are holed up in a physical place, it is more than that.  Some have developed  life patterns that resist unhealthy, unproductive and needless distractions which stares at us on a daily basis, by the choices they made, they resisted arrest. while some just flow with the current passively and are arrested by ldeas that have fractured the world.  Eighty two(82) Chibok girls were released from captivity by Boko Haram terrorist organisation in a prisoner swap deal yesterday(7/5/2017). The negotiating teams had a noble obligation of  making sure that no matter the provocations, human life matters.   That human life must be protected and provided for at all cost. They

CURSED OR THE CAUSE.A LESSON IN MISCALCULATION AND MISADVENTURE.   (1) C (2018)                     CHIBU NDUBUISI                           02/04/2018     WEEK 14 “Be careful what you pray for because you may get it and regret”              Peace be upon you. As part of the electioneering jingle repertoire of former Governor of Anambra State Peter Obi, who kicked off his campaign by waxing philosophical in 2003, by posing two questions to the electorate, he asked; are we Cursed or are we the Curse in Anambra state? Taking into account the plunder and pillage the state has been subjected to by political gladiators with the connections to abduct a sitting Governor (Chris Ngige) and the support of the central government.   For many months, teachers were not paid their salaries during the era of Mbadiniju, who turned from an elected Governor to elected evangelist; he absconded and displayed negligence of the duty of statecraft of fashioning good policies, to declarin
