It is a poor idea to lie to yourself.

Lying to yourself can be devastating. Many people who fail to excel in life lie to themselves. People only realise that they have been lying to themselves when they fail to achieve their goals. People lie themselves in various ways. For example some students think that they can start and finish a 100 marks assignment in a day and still get a distinction. However, in most cases students fail or get an average mark which results in putting the blame on the lecturers. Certain people lie to themselves about being career women, nevertheless, reality plays its role when these assumed career women get married and become mothers and housewives. For these reasons it is unwise and a blue lie to say that you know your destiny, instead, the best thing to do is to show commitment in everything you do.

Partiality in the media

Africa is always portrayed as the waste of all the five continents in the world. International media such as BBC and Aljazeera most often report on corrupt government leaders and hardly reports on honest ones. This misleads people on a global scale as they perceive all African government leaders as crooked. The fact of the matter is that not every leader is corrupt and therefore, media should be impartial in their reports. Media also show the dirtiest parts of Africa and turn a blind eye to the smart and beautiful nature of Africa. Media should be optimistic and not always pessimistic as this makes people lose hope for the future of Africa. Besides, media should contribute to social well being and therefore, human development through ethical reporting. In addition, people depend on the media to be informed, which means that media should be at all times trustworthy.

Every person has a dream.

We all grow up in different circumstances for various reasons. For some people, growing up is a nightmare while it is an exciting journey for others. By God’s grace, either with or without hope we grow up into sound human beings. God has given us the power to visualise, plan, control and therefore, manage our own lives. Every person has a dream, though; it is wise to say that developing a dream into reality is what matters. Having dreams is one thing and most people think that it ends there but developing them is another defining step. People’s achievements are measured on how well they plan to lead their lives. However, what may seem decent to a particular person may be perceived otherwise to another. It is essential that people believe in the inner power to manage their lives and not to depend on others.

Not all who wonder are lost.

Indeed not all who wonder are lost. Christopher Columbus wondered but he wasn’t lost. He wondered because he had certain intentions and therefore, if I wonder today, it’s because am contemplating on which is the best route to take to discover the world. Wondering about might mean lost to other people but it’s not about what others think, it’s about what I want to achieve. Wondering gives me the strength, courage, commitment, zeal and persistence to go on with my mission, a mission to a brighter future, a future that is worth living. As I live in that future with life-time achievements surrounding me, I’ll look back and say, yes it was worth wondering.

people wonder for a reason....

How do you step from the top of a 100-foot pole?

What could a person be doing on top of a 100-foot pole? I think it depends on how one got there in the first place. Only knowing what you want and knowing what to do to get that that you want might put you in a position of being at such a deadly height. For me a 100-foot pole is nothing, I can even go up a further 1000-foot pole, if that’s what’s required to attain a doctor’s degree in the field that I am so passionate about. This implies that a person intends to be where he/she is and therefore, knows exactly how to get out of there. However, if this person has no idea of how to get him/herself out of such a situation, then it is clear that this person did not know what he/she wanted in the first place. If it means being on top of a 100-foot pole to get what you want, then just get there and leave the thoughts of how to get down to the force of gravity.

It’s all about what you want in life….

Five critical reasons for retaining & appreciating PR

Companies should keep PR departments to survive current and future persistently changing environments. Organisations cannot rely on advertising, marketing and HR alone but also on PR to build and maintain strategic relationships that leads to reputation management. PR should also be decentralised so that centralised messages can be communicated to internal and external stakeholders. Besides, PR plays a totally different role and therefore, emphasise on symmetrical communication. It is for this reason that PR departments be independent from other organisational functions such as HR, marketing and advertising. In addition, PR practitioners specialises in issue and crisis management and therefore, use their expertise to efficiently and effectively to produce tangible results.
Businesses need PR.
