Lockdown Day 2: Setting Your Mind Free....

Good day to you. I trust you are doing great. The world is in a perilous time as Covid-19 pandemic is ravaging the world. Everything will be fine, do not panic.

Yesterday I started discussing what the greatest lockdown is; it is the lockdown of the mind. Mental lockdown is really really not good for anyone.

So, how do we break free from this mental lockdown. Out physical movement might be restricted but that doesn't mean our mental faculty should als be restricted.

We set our minds free from lockdown or prison by feeding it with the right information. Yes, feeding it. Your mind is very important which is why you must not just feed it but feed it with the right information. It is one thing to eat food, it is another thing to eat good food

To be wrongly informed could make our mind deformed. What you see, read, hear goes into your mind which in turn form who you are.

Everything you do or say is first conceived in the mind, even when it looks spontaneous to you , it has always been in the mind. You can't give what you don't have.

The tech guys will say 'garbage in, garbage out'. What you feed your mind with determine what will come out of you. Setting our mind s free from every form of shackles means we have to get the right info.

When you don't feed your mind with informational activity, you are caging it or locking it down gradually.

Also, you have to implement or put to good use those right information. The Africa continent hasn't develope at the rate of the other continents simply because it lack implementation. Africa doesn't lack information, what it lack is implementation.

Implementing what you have learnt require discipline, focus and Zeal.

So you set your mind free from lockdown by feeding it with the right information and utilizing that information by putting it to good use (implementation).

You might be in an isolation, quarantine or locked down but your mind shouldn't be.

Till I come your way again, do have a productive day and stay safe.

Made a Way: The Story Behind The Song

Made a way is a song written and sang by award winning artist Travis Greene in the year 2015. Many people knows the song but few actually know the story behind the song. The song was actually borne out of a personal testimony of Travis Greene. According to the artist, 'Made a Way' was written during an impossible situation. His pregnant wife’s water broke at 21 weeks, when pregnancy normally takes between 37-42 weeks. The doctors said the possibility of the baby’s survival is slim to none, and it was during this period when his wife was on bed rest for two months that he wrote the song. There was nothing else for them to hold on to but faith, and the good news is that as slim as the chance was, it didn’t break because faith held it together and today their baby boy is alive. When Jesus was on His way to heal Jairus’s daughter and news came that things had gone from bad to worse, that the girl was dead. Jesus overheard and said, "Don't be upset. Just trust me...
