INSPIRATION 101: MENTORS AND THE CHALLENGE OF MENTORING
Values and norms are continuously becoming endangered, facing imminent extinction. This is partly due to the near absence of pure colonies of reservoirs, compromised channels of transfers as well as lack of compatible and intact receptacles. Celebrated values in one generation become compromised at the time of transfer to the next generation. The challenge of value propagation and adaptation therefore is one that must be taken serious
RELATIONSHIP METRE
The temptation to relate only vertically and horizontally upwards is one we must overcome. Vertical relationship is with our peers or those on same social status with us. Relating with those at our level and above while neglecting those below, is a horizontally upwards relationship. The only connect sometimes we have with those below us is when we are passing down instructions or descending on them with the sledge hammer when they err.
INSPIRATIONAL LEADERS
Leaders must be inspired and inspirational! They must have the innate ability to make people see mountains as mere dung hills and see possibilities in 'humanly impossible' situations.
When Nehemiah arrived Jerusalem to rebuild the broken down walls, he met a remnant of oppressed, depressed and devastated people who were not considered good enough by their captors due to weaknesses and geriatric infirmities
NINE LIVES
When stars go to bed
And the sun closes its eyes
When the moon fails to shine
Yet we see light all around
It speaks just one word
Hope!
THE BLUE BAND
A band of boys
Wearing blue
Looking weary
Singing blues
Watching blues
Looking horribly blue
