“The heart of the wise man lies quiet like limpid water.” Cameroonian proverb
Limpid water is that clear undisturbed water body. A mind that is settled and calm is clear, firm, and free of ripples or tides. It is unperturbed, just like crystalline water.
If you want to go far in life, take charge of your mind. Once you do, you will create and control the environment you want. What is even more profound is that you will see things in a more balanced manner and make objective decisions.
The rise of Africa rise rests in our collective ability and willingness to think our own thoughts. This reclines on being able to evaluate everything to our own hearts’ content.
Everything you hear about Africa and Africans carries a motive. Take your time to question the motive that every statement is predicated on. Know what believing what you hear will trigger. Once you do, ask the all-important question: “To what end and to whose benefit?” It is the beginning of accuracy in thought that builds empires.
