Chain Of Exchange


CHAIN OF EXCHANGE

We all can remember trade by barter. Even though some may not have been born when this act was in existence but have definitely heard about it. Even from the name we can clearly understand what it means.

Permit me to ask a question: do people always expect a receiving in every of their giving? Your guess is as good as mine. Most people do! Too many people give out to await some form of receiving in return from the person on the receiving end…more like a “chain of exchange”, especially when it involves different genders i.e. a male assisting a female or perhaps vice versa. There’s usually this tendency to ask for a relationship (or even something more) at the end of such giving. This exchange has become the basis of so many relationships today which has led to many heart breaks because they believe they must always have something in exchange for whatever they give.

True giving is in learning how to give without having to expect anything in return. It’s a good thing to learn how to give cheerfully and wholeheartedly when you find yourself in a position to do so.

The popular saying ‘givers never lack’ is actually a very good quote and wise saying. Reason being that the quote didn’t say anything about your receiving but at the same time says ‘they never lack’. Giving to others is a beautiful thing, because he who gives will surely receive back in folds in some way or the other. But, giving without expecting anything in return is the height of true giving. If I give out, you give out, he gives out and she gives out, it all comes down to the giver receiving. It is a chain, just like the world in spherical shape, the chain goes round and round again, and then we discover we lack in no area of life.

Make a decision today to touch a soul, help the weak and give a helping hand when you can without necessarily expecting any form of exchange. That is when you have truly given.

You have never really lived until you help someone who cannot repay you!

We have been witnessing cleaning exercises but this one got a different grading. Heroes Nation Social Change Ambassadors did a very wonderful sanitation exercises at Ipata Market, Ilorin, Kwara State.

YES! YOU CAN.

Why are you doubting the capacity of your ability? Why are you scared of launching the goodies in you? Making the precious stones to glitter is one of the paramount thing why we are created. Do you know that  MTN came to Nigeria at a time when nobody wanted to invest in Nigeria, at a time when Nigerians did not have phones. Even Zenith Bank refused to loan MTN cash to operate,UBA rejected MTN's offer but today see the difference. What about Cowbell? When they came to Nigeria,they made milk in a sachet, Peak was laughing at them - they said Cowbell was milk for the poor - but they were right! 3-million poor people could afford N10 a day for a sachet of milk.Oya, do the math - 3 million people buying milkat N10.00- that was N30million every single day.In a month they grossed N900million (almost N1billion).Even Peak had to make sachet milk in order to survive in the market. So what have people told you?What have they said you cannot do, or you do not qualify for, or...

I CAN

There's always a way to do everything. There's nothing named "CAN'T". Too often we fail in our efforts because we have been brought up believing that we cannot do some things. The people who change the world are people who have taken impossible out of their dictionaries. The men and women who make changes in history are those who came against the odds and believing that it's impossible for the odds to stop them. No one can determine how much you can produce except you and God. So there is nothing in this world that should stop you from accomplishing, realising, fulfilling and maximising your full potential.  If you think it, you can do it. If you can conceive it, the fact that you can conceive it means you can do it.  It doesn't matter if it's never been done. Likewise, if you never THOUGHT of it, then you can't do it. Thinking doesn't get it done alone, it also implies that you can do it. Picture yourself doing the things in your tho...
