There's nothing like a well cleared path leading to ones dreams and desires. When you plan, everything seems t fall in place and resources somehow become available to fulfill your plan.

Yes, I grant that there are Nigeria here that only see and speak negative...all i can say about that is, the bottom line they are self seeking and comfortable...not necessarily doing well here but have a feeling of better ... cos' they have constant electricity, good road and can wake up and eat there genetically modified(GM) foods all sorts. Some on the other hand never had a chance to achieve any thing at home, may be cos of Family or social background, lack of proper education (those one I leave them) they are content living in there council estates that look like chicken coops..... with bill coming out of there ears...they are content to be average. They are enjoy the fruits of what they did not labour for....There are still Nigeria's that have hope and are working towards a better Nigeria, they too will need the support of you guys in Nigeria so there can be a working together...please there are still some of us out here that still have Nigeria's back.… Nigeria will be great...the next generation Nigerians do not just see themselves as Nigerians but a global citizen. ( that is the thinking and attitude I believe we need for a greater Nigeria) Ah! ….Please let me speak up for People Like me in the Diaspora … Yes, I grant that there are Nigeria here that only see and speak negative…all i can say about that is, the bottom line they are self seeking and comfortable…not necessarily doing well here but have a feeling of better … cos’ they have constant electricity, good road and can wake up and eat there genetically modified(GM) foods all sorts.

Another one is that money is not the essential tool needed to make money, what is needed is an Idea that will sell.

But do guys on nairaland, especially Nigerians living abroad, get to read your blog/site? I doubt. Those guys are just so full of negativity about everything Nigerian that you'll be glad they are not in Nigeria anyway. The most amusing part is that it seems peeps assume that the fact that they have found a way of leaving Nigeria bestows on them some sort of higher wisdom. And before anybody starts saying I'm saying this because I don't know how it is abroad, let me add that I'm currently in the UK, for studies though. From what I've seen, things are so hard for the average foreigner here and I'm not big on having my life depend on some foreign country's domestic policies (policy is a moving target as we all know). It galls me when those guys present it as if it's heaven on earth, whereas A LOT of guys are making better lives for themselves in Nigeria (me inclusive, as I can't wait for September next year to be back home). Anyway, that's a topic for another day. Sorry that I seemed to stray, I was just so touched by those words you wrote and can't understand why peeps will not decipher that it is what you apply yourself to that matters, and not where you live. Wishing everybody a fulfilling 2007. Deolu,

I have regularly visited this site over the past few months, and it has been greatly refreshing to share your energy and passion for improving other people's life. It is from people like you that we can still draw inspiration that there is hope for this nation; a great and infathomably prosperous tomorrow. Your job blog has been of invaluable help to me, and to friends that I refer to this site. Your commentaries are an outpouring of rain on dry and parched pastures. May god increase you more and more. May his light shine more brightly on you to direct you in the paths of your destiny. May the coming year see you engulfed in his embrace of favour. Thank you. It has been a pleasure and priviledge to be acquinted with you. Hi Adeolu,

First, I agree 100% with those lessons especially no 10- PATIENCE is one virtue I've developed this year. We are to follow the examples of those who through FAITH and PATIENCE obtained the promise. Second, I've learnt this year that there are no limits anywhere, the limitations we face is a function of how much our mind can conceive and our eyes can see. " As far as your eyes can see I've given to you" that's what God says God bless you and your family. Wishing you a brighter 2007! Bros,
