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.

COMMUNICATION. THE TOPIC

COMMUNICATION is simply the act of transferring information from one place, person or group to another. Every communication involves (at least) one sender, a message and a recipient. This may sound simple, but communication is actually a very complex subject. The transmission of the message from sender to recipient can be affected by a huge range of things. These include our emotions, the cultural situation, the medium used to communicate, and even our location. The complexity is why good communication skills are considered so desirable by employers around the world: accurate, effective and unambiguous communication is actually extremely hard.    There is no doubt that communication plays a vital role in human life. It does not only help to facilitate the process of sharing information and knowledge, but also helps people to develop relationships with others. Therefore, the importance of communication cannot be underestimated. But even as important /vital communication is in t...

I'M LOSING THE CHILD IN ME

 Hold on, I know what you're thinking, I'm speaking figuratively. And I'm a healthy black male in my mid 20s and male don't bare children. What I mean is that I'm losing that carefree spirit, that i-don't-care spirit that is found in children, that strong belief that everything will go your way. Or let's just say yes I'm in my early stage of transitioning from a boy to a man. How do I know this, that's because we are all dealing with reality. Things don't change unless we make the change, nothing happens unless we make it happen. I once saw in a post that women, children are loved for just existing but for a boy transitioned into a man has to always prove himself worthy of anything even love from his parents. For him is either success or no need for existance. But I love being older now, I remember when I was much younger I couldn't wait to grow up so I could have control of my life and people will stop telling me what to do and I'm more ...

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...
