INTRODUCTION. SLOW LEARNER STUDY GROUP est.1995

At a very young age, we are categorized by the school system into two groups, the slow learner and the fast learner. But as a slow learner and as you get older, you begin to realise that they were wrong all along, that you don't have a learning disability but instead, you think for yourself and you found it so hard to go along with the flow. You are called a slow learner because you have a powerful "why" for every and any abstract subjects thrown your way, you have a solid reason for every of your actions and you also expect everyone should do the same. Learning is a process and not a goal.

I am a slow learner and that means that I:

Remember the things I've learned and integrate them into my actions
Have patience to devote the time necessary to really learn a subject
Seek out the experts on a subject and absorb everything I can from them
Find value in many different sources
I'm not afraid of being called slow, freeing me to learn subjects that don't fall within my natural talents
Accept advice graciously
Take time to understand another viewpoint whether or not I agree with it
I'm better able to help others learn; I'd be more aware of the steps of the learning process.

KEYSTONE HABIT

Reading, studying shouldn't be forced. It can't be forced. It's voluntary, it's something that you do naturally,out of curiosity.You only need that trigger event that would make you not only cultivate a reading habit but it would spread across other areas of your life. Let me tell you my own story, early in my 20s I was lost, in the sense that I didn't know or have purpose. I wake up everyday angry and frustrated,my mom always nagging me, friends that I thought would be in my life for ever had left me not even answering my calls or replying my messages. That really broke me. Long story short, I fell into depression at age 21, mehn it was scary at first like really scary, I didn't know it was depression because I've never been depressed before so I didn't know what was wrong with me. I just knew that things don't excite me anymore even things I can't do without like listen to music didn't come to my mind, I lost my personality, I had suici

SLOW BUT CONSCIOUS

"Everytime we spend together there is fire in our eyes. All the things we said to each other are just nothing but truthful lies. I go dey think sey I know you well untill you choose to do me so. Now I see, now, i see!" //// "Life is so simple but they make it complicated. To be civilized you do not have to be educated. Let's make it happen so we time will not be wasted. Most of the things are anticipated like to trample on another man to be elevated, inflated egos can surely be deflated. The power of forgiveness is underrated but with love and equality we all were created. I keep on saying these things cus I know, I keep on saying these things until I go... Now, I see, now, I see!". This is a quoted lyrics from the song, Spiritual Healing by 2face Idibia (2baba) All the things we said to each other are just nothing but truthful lies. Conversations most of the time is used to break the ice and to escape from awkward situations. It carries no truth and ho

WHAT & WHY SUBJECTS SHOULD BE TAUGHT IN SCHOOLS

I won't even like to call it "subject" I would prefer "matters or issues of life" that should be attended to in schools. Like I have said earlier in one of my previous blogs and as we all know that the school system is filled with abstract subjects, subjects that are far from reality. School, school teachers is a very strong influence in the life of every individual. Teaching / Lecturing is not a job , it is a ministry , it is divine. But you see society calls it a job just because at the end of the month the pay check comes in not knowing that you are part of a system molding a life here, you are molding a destiny. I for once would never forget my first year primary school teacher, why, because she taught me how to read and everyone reads or everyone should read. There are adult individuals in their thirties and forties and even above that still make references to their lecturers/teachers back in their school years. Therefore school and teachers play a signi
