Changing Our Mindset
It is a topic that will continue to rage on for time immemorial until it is approached and dealt with by the culprit,the situation is not
likely to improve.
To begin with, The African continent continues to loose most of it's innovative and brains to the western
world because their place of origin do not suit them in one way or the other, be it education,lack of infrastructure,etc.
These drives most bright ones to flee their homes and until we learn to face and solve this problem,the situation is not likely to
improve
Further More,Sometimes ,too much superstition and dictating of one's lifestyle by the elderly at times kills the brightness in
young ones because one can only think to the full length of his capabilities when he / she is allowed the freedom they so deserve
but that is not to say they shouldn't be under scrutiny from their guardians
Finally,Until the black race begins to believe in itself and work towards becoming a global economic powerhouse,we are likely to always play second fiddle to our European counterparts. Africa has that potential to becoming a global economic leader after all we
are endowed enough. China is among countries with least natural resources but with hard work and determination on their side,we've
seen them rise to a global economic powerhouse.
It is my prayer and wish that this article leaves an optimistic mark on the mentality of Africans
GOD bless Africa
GOD bless the World

It is true that the mentality of the African man is really bad. That kind of mentality can't help improve if we are to survive in the world. The white man should stop branding the African continent the dark continent. Racism isn't good for interpersonal relationships and building of business empires. After all the good book said we are all created in the likeness of the creator. What the mind can conceive it can achieve.
ReplyDeleteIt's time we stand tall and make that delicate change. Change is permanent. Let's promote what we have in Africa by patronizing made-in-Africa goods.
Rightly said my brother,but until we learn to start working ,all this would just be a waste of time
