The Nigerian situation has set many people’s lives in the
motion of unfufilment, unsatisfaction, greed, impatience, selfishness…no time
for delayed gratification. The society is plagued by people who want it now or
never, it has to be about them…no one else, after them, then others can have
the remnant, if any remains.
Bitterness and unforgiveness are huge part of everyday
living. The plague of selfishness does not let people care about others. They
step on just about anyone to get through; they don’t care who gets hurt; this
results in a broken society of hardened human beings that continues this cycle.
This type of mindset is very destructive; the type that does not allow people
to progress, no matter how hard they work, they are still stuck in that cycle
of the rat race. People channel their energy towards all the wrong things and
it affects every area of their daily lives.
A corrupted mindset is
very unhealthy…. Such people have to space in their lives to enjoy the ordinary
things of life. Their lives are surrounded by oppression, unhealthy competition,
a life of zero value, excessive obsession with material things…. They cannot
even make progressive choices because their lives are plagued by the same
emotions.
The issue with Nigeria
is mindset….it is reflected in our leadership, human relationships…… People are
lost, they cannot even figure out what they want. Until you rid yourself of these negative
emotions….you cannot move forward. If you can’t figure out a way to genuinely
move your own life forward, how do you lead others? It is the reason, people
criticise the Government and still do the same thing when they get into power…because
their mindset is not that different from the man there. The way you relate with
others will show exactly the type of person you are. The way a superior relates
with the subordinates will tell if he is different from those in the corridors
of power.
Change your mindset, change your life! You cannot be thinking
the same way as the people you are criticising, you are just the same as they
are if you don’t think differently.
