THE ANIMAL CALLED HUMA BEING IN A HABITAT CALLED EARTH!

Yes there is an animal, animal indeed with all the characteristics, attitudes, behaviour and thought of an animal. It is called human being. Though dressed with precious apparel , pearls and adorn with Golden ornament; very beautiful to look upon with all the aforementioned covering their shame, nakedness and the real being of himself YET is an animal indeed.

At first sight you be tempted to believe they could be trusted, believed and relied upon but they are empty jangle, can and timbrels.

OH what a wonderful place, environment or what the mathematician will refer to as a Circle or Cyclic circumference we live in. it is called the Earth. So wonderful sometimes but at times my dear reader, it is hotter than fire, pepper and burn than sulfuric fire.

A place where you could feel so nice at moment and in the next minute or even probably the next second feel so bad as why you are still living in such a crocked, wonderful, fantastic but betrayful place. Where it possible, you feel like melting, dissolving, disappearing and or even on more powerful note jumping out of it like a frog jump out of hot water when it is dropped in one – scientific evolution, experiment and inference applies and implies. “Think of it”

Before I digress a little from the point of consideration, HUMAN – the most complex animal or even worse than that. Why? Animals could be trained, controlled, tamed and redirected. But Human being chaaaaaaasssssssssss……………….. so simple in appearance, facial expression, but complex at heart, deceptive in behaviour and characters, but still claimed to be good, nice, gentle welcoming and so on, name it or them. My dear reader do you blame me for pasting such a picture about my subject in question? You will soon discover by incidence or accident what really prompted; inspire me to write this piece. To give you a clue, it is not far fetched from my discovery about the said subject,. From youth, I learn to trust and believe people of whatever they tell me. Which I held as a principle of living but to my surprise that it suffices my heart to say Human OH Human being is a deceptive animal I have ever come across.

Inference and conclusion is a product of experiment and observation. So permit me to say that some of this animal may not behave exactly as the afore stated. Even in the book “Animal Kingdom” it is said “animal are equal but some are more equal than the other” and in science it is believed that not all element behave alike, some are Isotopic in nature. Thus it implies………………….
Trust no one. Yes believe none, rely on no one (MORTAL). If you do not belong to the rugged group. If you are not for them. No peace I tell out there!

BUT I TELL YOU TO BELIEV, TRUST, RELY & DEPEND UPON:-

Dear readers follow me as I fly into the realm where trust, belief is the order of the day. This place is not within this cyclic circumference. A place beyond the reach of betrayals, unbeliever and distrust; whose citizens are loyal, complete gentle and total loving without deception. People of old told it to me, I have also by virtue of observation & inference concluded that he does not fail ever since. The King is God Himself Jesus our advocate in the Kingdom of Heaven.

OH HOW I LONG TO BE THERE!!!

WHAT IS YOUR THINKING METHODS

Although the creative problem-solving process is as old as humanity, the formal and definitive presentation of its structure emerged in the 1950s with the research of Alex Osborn and Sidney Parnes. They divided the process of solving problems into six stages:
.Objective Finding
.Fact Finding
.Problem Finding
.Idea Finding
.Solution Finding
.Acceptance Finding

They further divided the six stages into three phases, as follows: 1. Exploring the Challenge (Objective Finding, Fact Finding, and Problem Finding), Generating Ideas (Idea Finding), and Preparing for Action (Solution Finding and Acceptance Finding).Description:Since the arrival of the now classical Osborn-Parnes structure, any number of academic and business entities have re-sorted and renamed the stages and phases of what we now call the Creative Problem Solving Process (CPS). However, the originators' fundamental approach remains in tact.The Creative Problem Solving Institute of Buffalo, New York, has finessed the Osborn-Parnes process to include a divergent and a convergent stage within each of the six stages.In his 1988 book, Techniques of Structured Problems, Arthur B. VanGundy offered a more elaborate structre and a more approachable nomenclature, providing specific thinking techniques or exercises for the convergent and divergent steps of each stage.
.Mess Finding
.Data Finding
.Problem Finding
.Idea Finding
.Solution Finding

THE PASSING AWAY OF THE GRAET THINKER

It is with great sadness that I share with you the passing of Marion Osborn on Monday, November 17th in Buffalo, NY. As you may know, Marion was the third child born to CEF Founder Alex Osborn and his wife Helen Coatsworth. Marion was a CEF Trustee, serving as Secretary for many years, a Lifetime Trustee, Life Member, a long-time participant at CPSI and CPSI Hall of Fame Inductee.I met Marion in early 2006 at a lovely dinner held by Suzanne Chamberlain in Buffalo. Marn, as she preferred to be called, was welcoming and informative. She wanted to be sure that CEF knew not only of Alex but of her mother and the descendants of her parents. Together we created a family tree.It was clear that she was proud to live in Buffalo and to have been able to support CEF over many years and in many ways. Her connection to the Foundation started with the work of Alex but continued due to her enjoyment of the people with whom she worked about which she shared stories.I was left with the impression that she was a great force behind the scenes whose contributions were not those that made headlines but kept things in order and moving forward.If you would like to share your reflections, memories and/or condolences for the family, please send them to: memories@CPSIconference.comOn behalf of the CEF Board of Trustees, staff and members, I send our deepest sympathies to all of the descendants the Osborn-Coatsworth family including the Chambers, Bergantz, Fogerty, Gartner, Kerr, Lamison, Moslow and Ostendorf families.We are grateful for Marion's many contributions and her years of service to CEF and the community.

You got to start today and be remembered for the number of problem(s) you are able to solve thinking positively and provide creative support to people. see you in next edition. stay glued.

LIFE

Life is the greatest asset God gave to mankind but man seems not to know its importance. He is the one who bring unwanted things to life and makes life miserable for himself.

We all have different perspective about life, and also have different aims and aspiration to achieve in life. A rich man thinks life is all about the riches of this world and ignorant that there is more to life than riches and or wealth. Whereas a poor man in his wisdom and circle also thinks life is all about being poor without the knowledge that the poorest man on earth is the man that thinks he is poor.

A man that thinks negative about life becomes a man that has sight but lacks vision. And a man that sees the positive aspect of life sees himself achieving something great out of life even though it might not be evident at the moment.

Life requires the help of one person and the other in order to achieve something great. Working together (group or team work) make life easier and more comfortable for one to life in.

A man that thinks he can achieve anything without anybody’s help or contribution will end up achieving nothings. There are 3 kinds of people you meet in life:-
1. Those that makes things or help things happen
2. Those that watch things happen; and
3. Those that stop things from happening.

The acceleration of your journey to success or destiny is greatly influenced by the kind of people you meet in life. If you are lucky to meet the No. 1 set of people, your journey is enhanced. And the No. 2 are there to just watch you struggling on your own. Whether your struggle is yielding fruit or not may not border them. You got to put extra effort to succeed in such environment. Dear reader, if you find yourself under the third group, do I need to advice you to run! These are non else but evil who will stop at nothing but your damnation. So you got to identify your environment.

Do not waste your precious time in life or you will lose your life without time. One can make the most out of life if you can pursue your dreams(s) and aspiration. Changing one’s perception about life makes one benefit most from it.

Do you know why you are still living?
What do you want from and in life?
What is your perception about life?
And what is life to you?

DEVELOP NEW IDEAS

How can someone develop new plan(s) in life?
What are your aims and desires in life?
What is your vision and purpose in life?

Before you can develop a new plan, you must read wide and think relatively deep, do things that others never do and take a challenge because people were there before you and you would definitely pass them; if you develop new plan(s) and focus on what you are doing.

Most people fail because they lack persistence in creating new ideas to improve their life to become successful. The reason behind it is because when you fail to plan, you plan to fail. What is success by the way? Success is all about becoming the person you were meant to be; not trying to be someone else success is a process, it occurs gradually one step at a time after the other. It is never ending and it consists of series of daily effort and it has to be preceded by hard work. There is no success without sacrifice; rather, success demands strong desires and unwavering determination

Your new idea(s) which is your vision leads you to your purpose in life; I mean what you want to achieve or your goal, target in future. Remember! that success is a journey, it’s not a matter of luck!, neither is it by chance! But by making a choice. It is not by destiny alone but by making and or putting concerted effort, and it requires aspiration, right attitude and focus.

Most miserable people in this world today are those that can not make a decision. If you want to develop new ideas and become a successful person in life, you have to make a firm decision now! And forget the past and focus in the future. Think positively and do things that would benefit you. Beware of what you watch! Do not be deceived by people around. Watch and listen to programmes that would educate, inspire and improve your life and knowledge

When you develop your new plan(s), idea(s) and purpose, and work on on it without deviating from it, you will become a successful man or woman in life, because, most successful people in the world you see today have vision, purpose and plan for it. Because when others were asleep, they were awake and planning for their lives. Bill Gate, Thomas Edison, Isaac Newton e.t.c for instance chose to be great thinkers and inventors.

Finally, your success in life is the product of good thinking. What you see is what you know, what you think of is what you can get; what you need to make it in life, is not money, but IDEAS. Success only comes to those who think of success and strive for it. A success without prayers like a house without a foundation; a football field without a goal post; a letter without a fixed address. Prayer is needed to give direction. God Almighty first before any other thing(s)!....... and with his infinite mercy, your plan will come true….. see you there at the top.

WORDS OF WISDOM

Great works are products of great minds. Knowledge is useful when shared. There is more to life than what you have experienced. Your limitation is not a function of your condition but a function of your decision and maturity is not known by appearance but by attitude.

Experience and reading broadens the mind. A good conscience makes the mind healthy. Do you know that the initial requirement for achievement is just an idea? For our quality of life can only be known by the quality of ideas that flows from it.

My good friend, I would like you to know that Anxiety does not empties tomorrow of its sorrows, but it empties today of its strength.

When you can manage things, you control situation and you can lead. A leader is made and they born leaders but leading is from the heart. A leader has the inborn flare to give instruction(s) and show example(s) by performance. Power is not of a purpose to make name but of a purpose to serve. True leaders serve their subjects and not inflict pains(s) on them by usurping power against their subjects.

We do not see things the way they are, we see things the way we are. When a man is praised because of his good deeds, if he is not careful, his good deeds will turn to evil deeds.

Finally I wish you to know that No Mistake(s), No Success. You got to know that before success is attained you must make mistake. Simply put, success is a glorified corrected mistake(s). So the difference between success and failure is the mistakes; thus when it’s improved upon comes success. Once again, leadership is not all about positions, titles or flowcharts, its all about ones life influencing another.

A SMILE

This topic may seem so light but pull more weight in relieving someone from the sense of timidity. At times people become confused with what to say, do, how to say, do it. And this lead to stress. But a little dose of SMILE will relieve and refreshes you. A smile cost you nothing but creats much. It enriches those who recieve it without impoverishing those who gave it. This fulfill the Natural law of giving and the Biblical injunction that say "give and it shall be given to you......"
The occurence of a smile may happen in a flash but the memory of it last for a very long time. None are so rich they can get along without it, and none so poor but are richer for its benefits. It creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in a business and is the counter sight of friends.
It is rest to the weary, daylight to the discouraged, sunshine to the Sad and Nature's best antidotes for trouble. A Smile cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, stolen for it is something that is no earthly good to anybody untill it is given away.
Finally, if in the last-minute rush buying, some of the sale People should be too tired to give you a smile; May i ask you to leave one of yours? For nobody needs a smile so much as those who have none to give.
Apart from your words and actions, let your looks also brighten somebody's day.

A LITTLE OF JOKE

The World though a global village is such an entity with conglomeration of activities ranging from art to Science, Humanities to Engineering, Sport, Parties to mention just a few. this shows that people from all works of life engage in activities both productive and unproductive everyday round the clock. This also enunciate the reason(s) why there is stress because people work without rest or at least without something (not food) to relief them of the tension they involved themselves during these hours.

Agreed medically, there are some pills and or tablets both local and western that help in relieving a stressed man. But there is a more natural, efficient way to handle stress that has powerful potential to heal, relieve you of the stress that you may never imagine - A LITTLE JOKE.

Consider this and lough loud.

1. A man was given a bottle of Coke & Fanta, he drank the Fanta but he kept the Coke under his pillow. When he was asked why, he said, " I want the coke to ripe like the Fanta".

2. A boy was newely registered in an High School, he decided to take a long ladder with him, when he was asked why, he replied "Since I am going to an High School, I have to go with a ladder".

3. A man named his first Child, Godwin, the second Child, God'spower. The third son was now a cripple and blind so he nemed him God forbid.

Lough it loud. This will reduce your stress till i see you in the next edition
