We Must Build an Ideological Campaign for Integrity, Honesty, Selflessness,and National Patriotism

We Must Build an Ideological Campaign for Integrity, Honesty, Selflessness,and National Patriotism.

We need to be watchful of practices in Government that can jeopardize our sovereignty and speak out against such. Our patriotism requires that accountability of every citizen. Stop looking the other way.

When a superpower like China despises all the financial investment risk evaluation reports and pumps billions into Africa with the kind of people at our helm of affairs, we must be concerned.


There is no free money in China and they don't practice the government as we know it in Africa. When we pay back China and Africa win, and when we don't pay back, China eventually wins.

We should be grateful to a country like China willing to invest in Africa with our culture of not willing to pay back even when our OWN INDIGENOUS BANKS ARE PLAYING POLITICS with our common wealth in their custodies.

A lot of our honest Igbo traders are able to do business on account of the leverages Chinese Investors allow them to exploy. They can buy volume and pay conveniently. Our Nigeria banks will ask for a Leg and a Foot to be cut and kept in their custody to give such opportunities, unfortunately.

However, there are concerns for African Government with the culture of defaulting on payments, especially on previous loans taken from Europe and the West. Lots of backlog of the loans all over the place and now from China. China unlike Democratic nations always win the loan battle one way or the other and the countries will pay. A lot of these loans are low or no interest for crying out loud.

This is a Campaign, African people should demand stewardship from their various government before they are sold out on loans to trade by barter. 

We should do business with the right motive. We should take loans with the mind and willingness to pay back.

As Africans we must as a matter of responsibility build an ideological campaign for Integrity, Honesty, Selflessness,and National Patriotism, from the family fronts and the business fronts. Let us celebrate those values before our children and colleagues and be examples in practice. Let's have a zero-tolerance for the various show of greed and selfishness as we know them.

Let's generate enough ripples in that regard while we are also praying harder for the kind of leadership that only God can bring in Africa.
Only God has the miraculous wand for our complex problems. Hiworks

Studying As The Backbone for Innovative Thinking

Studying As The Backbone for Innovative Thinking 

Studying demands Research, Knowledge Gathering, Consumption and Assimilation  but most of our children and undergrads  ONLY read school notes with no interest in Research, which provides the depth to draw innovation from.

For most of our undergrads, the only time there is an attempt at a research is during their last school project.

It is the research of knowledge that develops the permanent images of the knowledge acquired in the subconscious mind.

It is the abundance of knowledge settled in the subconscious mind, that
births fresh innovations.

I can't remember, how I acquired some prisms in my secondary school days. I was able to carry out lots of experiments with them privately at home. This was one of the favorite subjects areas I answered questions about in my WAEC examination.

The same happened while we were at Longitude and Latitude subject in mathematics, as I used oranges to research the subject.

I made my papers at a sitting and would have done much better with more research based learning culture.

Innovation is impossible without sound root knowledge of any thought.

It is our understanding of gravity, that created the opportunity to defy it.
Today, a lot of gadgets are flying all over the place and EVEN GADGETS AS SMALL AS ANTS ARE NOW EQUIPPED WITH CAMERA FOR ENEMY SURVEILLANCE.

There are things to be done from Preschool curriculum, to facilitate interest in research and assimilation of knowledge. 

When we have a situation in our educational system, where THE TEACHER has never seen a Microwave or a Drone before and the image of the poorly mass produced textbook is unclear, how will the teacher with no smartphone skill inspire knowledge, in a village with no electricity, computer, and internet.

Having an enabling teaching and learning environment is the biggest challenge with education in Africa and it is a serious conspiracy that is seemingly unrestrained. This is even worst off in the North, where some groups are against western education. This same groups depend on western technology to coordinate and create mayhem ironically.

 Our education system in Africa needs a complete overhauling.

Government must declare a state of emergency in our education system management and seek for Foreign Missionaries to help develop the root knowledge bases and teaching capacity.

I read few days ago, JAMB posted Billions of naira into CBN from the last Examination carried out. I could just imagine Jamb creating two more opportunities yearly for more attempt at the exam. This could hit 20billion with more efficient management yearly.

This is one area Government will SINCERELY PUMP FOREIGN AIDS in billions of dollars and have exponential return on investment.

We see in images and for as long as those images are difficult to form in the mind, studying will be a tough call.

The teaching strategy MUST change. 
The need for more teaching aids that feeds graphical images into the mind will humongously upscale interest in studying and consequently birth more innovations. Hiworks

Responsibility For Business Wellbeing & Continuity

1:15pm April 28, 2019.
For business performance to be properly evaluated, especially with regards to business continuity & risk management, all the people responsible for flagging various threats to the business must be at their best and loyalist to the values and principles upon which the business was set up and sustained; from gate manning to sitting in Management, and from policing the borders to sitting at Federal Executive Council.

The reason we have survived all the health challenges of life is because the body promptly report developments in the system that threatens the well being and all. Based on the indicators and test, medical practitioners are able to identify and deal with the life challenging concerns. Almost all of these life challenging health issues can be detected with proper periodic medical audits.

Can one imagine a situation where the body takes side with the malaria parasites and did not indicate any symptom and the test didn't generate corresponding results?

The victim is as good as dead obviously.

That is what happens when the management of an organization do not get the prompt and honest reporting of the various down line operational gaps and business threatening development.

When near miss events are not tracked and reported, events leading to the development may never be tracked to the ends near misses does not become real fatalities or collapse of operations.

If a drug supplier had been identified by an inspection officer for supplying a mix of fake and original drugs and simply rejects and warns the supplier without reporting, it is tantamount to the body not reporting the presence of life wellbeing threatening development.

When a particular officer reports, it can lead to a major audit in a medical center and discovery of wrongs that might have gone on for very long time undetected because previous inspectors were compromised. 

It will also answer a flagging of certain drugs as ineffective for certain prescription previously, that the reason is that those drugs were fake versions.

So every indicators are critical for the well being of any system. A common headache,may reveal more severe growing development than the obviously indicated. Hiworks

Incorruptible Character is a Social Equity

Incorruptible Character is a social equity that can open doors riches will fail to unlock. It is impossible to be desperate for riches and also be gritty for character development; they are two opposite courses; the opportunity cost of journeying in one is the other you have forgone; our subconscious mind can't travel the two together.

Replicate Yourself and Increase Your Visibility

One of the ways one can increase the time share and reduce the Risk of Life Challenging Narratives of different season in business is by Replicating Oneself in many others and through them increasing ones visibility by doing more. 

The risk of business shutdown or redundancy is lower with more people sharing the business values compared to when the visioner is the sole player. 

A lot of entrepreneur in these bracket will claim, they have sufferer too much from poor retainer-ship. The truth is, that retainer-ship challenge is the 'Jericho' of growing a lot of small businesses to big enterprises. 

What most entrepreneur will not mention is that a lot of them would not be willing to sacrifice more in their transition seasons. 

Every vision has everything required for full realisation but a lot of visioners are too in a hurry for gratification. 

Not everyone will own businesses, but everyone needs to feel ownership of whatever business employs them especially when they have put in up to 2years of commitment or such will seek that gratification somewhere else. 

When one has 5 persons employed to do ones job, that is at least 50hours extra, one is doing daily added to ones manhours. That is 600% chances of survival compared to ones 100%.

When we employ, we are by that activity increasing our share of time deployed into a business daily. 10 people under employment in a business will mean, hypothetically, additional 100hours of exposure daily and about 2500 hours every month.

What Success is Not 1

 WHAT SUCCESS IS NOT 1

 Success is not ......when you see or live to see your goal  succeed. Success is not a destination but a Spirited Victorious attitude.

 Success is winning ways finding expression.

 It is a never giving up attitude on a course one has found to be worth living for, irrespective of numerous failures and oppositions within and without. 

Success  makes heroes of them who never lived to see their dream, having failed many times or retired by aging and health realities or silenced by opposition  but such lit unquenchable fire of desire for the course such believed on for others to run with until THE DREAM IS THE REALITY. 

Every American that died for the liberation of the blacks before and after Martin Luther King Jn are as much heroes  as Martin Luther King Jn even though never lived to see Barrack Obama as the first Black African American  President.

 Nelson Mandela is as much a hero as every South Africans that died during the struggle. When corporate bodies are starting out they put up a mission statement and a vision statement....to be a successful....... and everyday engagement is an investment into that call upon everyone in such corporation.

 It is very possible that the founder may never live to see the mission statement realized but as long as every day input is in that course, philosophically,  the founder is a success.

 Eventually, when the goal is realized, sustainability is also on the winning ways. 

What defines a successful person is not how many times he succeeded, but his Endless Disposition to continue to Risk the Possibility of Failure, in his Quest to Succeed. 

Success believes all things are possible. 

Success is a state of the mind that inspires one to go on and try again and again no matter how many times one has failed. 

Success is not a destination but a Spirited Victorious attitude. 
Success  not a chance Opportunity. 
Success is not luck.
 Success is not money. Money is a derivative of success. 
Auccess is not genetic 
Success is not a given 
Success is not evil 
Success is not to be feared 
Success is not fate 
Success is not synonimous with estate or acquisition 
Auccess is not Accidental 
Success is not Abusive 
Success is not a destination
 Success is not proud 
Auccess is not envious 
Success is not over bearing 
Success is not oppressive 
Success is not a position 
Success is not education 
Success is not knowledge
 Success is not wisdom
 Success is not understanding 
Success is not selfish 
Success is not political power
 Success is not in competition 
Success is not afraid of failure 
Success is not favourable to gender or marital status 
Success is not externally influenced by weather, economic prevalence, government policies etc 
Success is not favorable to family history Success is not stagnant
 Success is not disorderly 

Again, this is Success

Success believes all things are possible. 

Success is a state of the mind that inspires one to go on and try again and again no matter how many times one has failed. 

Success is a Spirited Victorious attitude.

What Success is Not 2

 What Success is not 

 Success is not a chance Opportunity or luck 

A chance opportunity or luck can be self destructive, when the success is a given and the personality is not prepared for the complexness that are bandwagon of the status.

Such success is not a sustainable experience.

 Coming from the premise that success is a mindset to stay on course to an end irrespective of events opposing or enabling, a successful mind does not aspire out of peer pressure and competition.

Sustainable success is self driven life actualization of goals and dreams, seeing everyone else unique in their purposes, paths and timezones. 

A successful mindset is disposed to give and give. The truth is that Time and Chance will happen to all and a successful mindset will seize those moments for a great launch and it will just be the normal practice of a disciplined lifestyle; being prayerful, diligence, will to delay gratification,soberity, humility,  helping others get to their dreams, etc

 The pursuit to become such a personality will take time and effort to develop; this is real hard work. 

Luck will only be springboard when a successful mindset is in activation. TO BE CONTINUED..... From Odusina Adewale Hiworks

Brand-Character Alignment - Your Spontaneous Responses From Odusina Adewale Hiworks 2020/04/06 09:20

Brand-Character Alignment - Your Spontaneous Responses 
From Odusina Adewale Hiworks  2020/04/06 09:20 

The reason we invest in our personality is that we may always have the right spontaneous response in any situation. 

Our spontaneous responses to evolving situations in our lives are predictable: they are the character submission of our preoccupation and this eventually is our brand identity. 

What we eventually sell above our professional skills is our brand identity. Brand identity from my Layman point of view is the reputation we have carefully built over a period of time.

 An employee Job retainership or customer retainership is grown on a great reputation or brand identity. 

Most of the time, what is first visible is the professional skill while the character is assumed to be equally top-notch. Big brands always jump on the euphoria of the public appellation of skill hoping that CHARACTER requirement is inherent. Well, many times they are wrong and they quickly withdraw their brand alignment to such individuals.

A lot of known personalities in the film, music and sports industries lose multinational brand endorsement by their inability to match the brand identity perception with corresponding brand reputation due to character flaws. 

Skill always gives a Ginger to the character and so one highly skilled may be perceived to have character being the strength of customer or employment retainership.

 However, the moment character is on trial, brand identity is on fire and the spontaneous responses will reveal whether there is a match or not. Spontaneous responses are your predetermined reactions developed consciously and subconsciously over a long period. 

Take stock of your spontaneous responses and define your personality sincerely.  Do you find a drift towards a liar, a fastidious character, a violent, an abusive, an impatient, an infidel, greedy, selfish and such like; THEN MAKE NECESSARY CONSCIOUS ADJUSTMENT. 

If you are reading this, I am sure you know some Hollywood legends recently sentenced for sexual assaults on women and many more around the world are being brought down for the same and various other unthinkable violations of the seemingly vulnerable in their circle of influence.

It is your brand identity and character alignment that will ultimately demand more from your prospects and not the skill. To be continued..... Hiworks

Nigeria take back what few ostentatious unpatriotic citizens and foreigners have taken from you

Please watch this YouTube video on Nigeria Let's Make Sure No Child is Left Behind. Visit https://youtu.be/uqN7w3wjcIw 

This is an honest campaign (The YouTube video campaign), but sometimes addressing the root of a problem is better than photoshopping it. The Rhetoric should be Nigeria take back what few ostentatious unpatriotic citizens and foreigners have taken from you.

if in one state and within 16years two Governors took 34billion Naira from the State Fund pool, the other politicians and stakeholders in Government took another 34x10billion Naira, and they are still taken, the results are the obvious narratives;worsening infrastructure in schools, worsening road, worsening housing, worsening power supply, worsening healthcare, worsening welfare for the senior citizens.

The Rhetoric should be Nigeria take back what few ostentatious, unpatriotic citizens and foreigners have taken from you.

When you offer a solution like inexpensive solar streetlights, as cheap as N36,000.00 for the supply and replacement of existing dysfunctional streetlights with 100W LED all in one Streetlight.

With about 40KM roads in Ikeja, the budget is 28.8Million Naira, @ one every 50m, 800pieces of solar-powered streetlight, that will not fail at least 2-3years and low maintenance ( just wipe the face of the panels every month and rain will also make for self-maintenance). with that budget, Lagos road can be Lit with 28.8 Million Naira x 130 = 3.8 Billion Naira.

Imagine spending 3.8 Billion Naira to lit Lagos state, Imagine how nightlife will improve tremendously with that token.

What changes all the mathematics is the greed of some politicians; when the same solar light that is originally 36,000.00 Naira, is offered at POLITICAL PRICE of 360,000.00 Naira per piece. The ripple effect of that is only one-tenth of the roads will be done (10% of the original length of road; 492km of the road as against 4921km. or spending 38billion naira for what 3.8billion would have achieved.

Imagine the Government spending extra 34billion Naira that could be deployed to meet other needs to feed some persons' greed. This is how the mathematics fails and sometimes and many times such a lofty agenda is struck out for many years.

The effects of Greedy Politicians and Other stakeholders overpricing are the obvious narratives; worsening infrastructure in schools, worsening road, worsening housing, worsening power supply, worsening healthcare, worsening welfare for the senior citizens and many others.

What would one expect Government to do, when the submitted offers are 10 times the allocation; obviously to do 10 times less.

The Rhetoric should be Nigeria take back what few ostentatious unpatriotic citizens and foreigners have taken from you by exposing such. Every Patriotic Nigerians have a right to publish such a genuine document showing such practices. Every Nigerian is a gatekeeper for the Progressive Philosophy Rhetorics. Every Nigerian Patriotic Consultant in charge of some Due diligence of some sort, must expose or resign to expose overpricing practices.

Why the Evil had prevailed is because some of the gatekeepers looked away; they should now look responsibly.

If the cost of running Government operations is fair, it may drop to 20% of what is it today and the 80% savings can go into the reserve and other CAPEX. In a very shorter period, the impact of Government shall be felt by Mr. Yakubu, a tailor at Ayetoro for just because he is a Nigerian and he will pride himself as one. From Hiworks

You are your 'iwa' , I mean 'retcarahc'

In the final analysis, your  'iwa' will show up. That is what you are atomically; you may pretend for a while, but you are your 'iwa' altimately. Only you can deal with your 'iwa'; making the necessary adjustments where necessary; well, that is if you don't allow self denial to becloud you.

We may claim our boss or client is difficult, when the real issue is our flaws. We may claim there is no time, when the issue is time mismanagement or no money for  mismanagement of funds, or no love in our marriage, when love languages are lacking. The list is endless.

Adjustments and improvement can start when self denials is starved to death.

It is actually 'iwa' , I mean 'retcarahc' that defines real beauty or ugliness and that 'ugliness' can be transformed to beauty with determination.Hiworks
