MESSAGE TO ALL YOUTHS by Orolugbagbe Joel Olabanji

Message_To_All_Youths by OROLUGBAGBE OLABANJI JOEL. Using Obinwanne Okeke's story as a means to inform the youths about the overzealous act and desires to get money and riches. Note: An Illegally successful person might be rich and celebrated today but tomorrow await the person; the day the person's grace stop working for the person, then things tend to turnaround. Banji Joel Many would have looked up to Mr Obinwanne and felt like they have missed something for not being rich and many would have envied his wealth and many just heard about his source of wealth but not totally confirmed. EVEN FORBES MISSED IT. It's so sad how many youths today want to have money by all means, some don't want to work, some don't want to climb ladders, some don't want to endure, some don't want to sacrifice, some don't want to even do anything meaningful but want to have money by all means. I have young Entrepreneurs as friends and "also working towards being great one", and most of these entrepreneurs will always say they are not there yet because it's not easy making it big in a world with many competitors and also with the powerful and connected ones to compete with I have a cousin who has about three different things he is doing so that he can be successful, not relenting or satisfied with where and what he is now but striving so hard to be successful in his careers; life, condition and environment might want to push him to doing illegal things to make money but the believe that he can make it big in his own way through legal means is sure one of the things pushing him through. My father (Engr. Orolugbagbe Julius Olayiwola) has made me to understand the need for hardwork, discipline, sacrifice, dedication, education, opportunities, influence, support etc in making money but my dad have also made it known to all his children that "if you go through illegal means to have money then it has been predestined that you will have the money because many have passed through that illegal route without making it to and some even passed away while trying illegally" The love of money accompanied by impatience. bad mentoring and orientation has made many youths go astray. Banji Joel I understand life isn't fair but illegal means isn't the way. In illegal means "You fall the way you rise", so why not rise though a legal means and if you will fall then you fall honourably and it will be known by all that you tried and fall while trying to be rise legally. Yeah, Money is good, Success is good, we all need money, we all love good things and we all want to be successful in life, but God's plan and time for each and everyone of us is different, so understand that and stay with God and believe in him. It's good to celebrate success but the means to the success should be known; legal success should be celebrated and encouraged. #No_excuse_for_failure #No_excuse_for_not_rising_after_falling #No_excuse_for_illegal_means_to_success #No_excuse_to_bringing_shame_upon_the_nation #Make_it_big_legally_and_be_celebrated #God_bless_Nigeria #God_bless_me. TO ALL YOUNG ENTREPRENEURS OUT THERE MAKING IT BIG OR STILL TRYING TO MAKE IT, I CELEBRATE YOU, I APPRECIATE YOU, PLEASE DO NOT BE DISCOURAGED WITH THE WAY THINGS ARE RIGHT NOW BECAUSE IT WILL SOON BE BETTER, I TELL YOU ALL THAT GOOD THINGS HAPPEN TO GOOD PEOPLE BECAUSE THEY DESERVE IT, SO KEEP IT UP AND YOU SHALL EXCEEDINGLY SUCCEED By Orolugbagbe Olabanji Joel A Nurse A Writer A Socialist A Voice A lover of Christ

2025 International Nurses Day Write-up by Olabanji Joel Orolugbagbe

Image
"Caring for Nurses: The Key to a Stronger Economy" The 2025 International Nurses Day theme, "Our Nurses, Our Future; Caring for Nurses Strengthens Economies," resonates deeply with nurses worldwide. As the International Council of Nurses (ICN) aptly puts it, "Building on the success of the 2024 International Nurses Day theme, The Economic Power of Care, the 2025 theme shifts focus to the health and wellbeing of nurses." The Unseen Struggles of Nurses Nursing has evolved significantly over the years, with numerous specialities and forms of care aimed at promoting patient health, preventing illness, and facilitating coping with disabilities and nursing patients to a peaceful death. However, the emotional, physical, social, and financial toll on nurses remains largely unaddressed. Who cares for the heart that cares? The increasing workload, economic pressures, and fear of litigation have made nursing jobs more challenging than ever. Several nurses have left t...

The Reality of Marriage: Beyond Love by Olabanji Joel Orolugbagbe

Image
In my three years of marriage and what I have seen of marriages around me, I have come to realize that every day is an opportunity to celebrate love, foster understanding, practice forgiveness, and make sacrifices. Contrary to the notion that all you need for a successful marriage is love, I have learned that it takes intentional effort and investment from both partners. Sacrifices and forgiveness are just as crucial as love in making a marriage last, peaceful, and happy. Marriage is often romanticized, but the reality is that it requires hard work and dedication, which many marriage speakers tend not to speak about. Love alone isn't enough; financial stability also plays a significant role in strengthening the bond in marriage. Forgiveness and sacrifice are essential, not just during challenging times but as a continuous process. Both partners must be willing to sacrifice their individual interests and preferences to maintain peace and harmony and family growth. As the saying goes...

PRIORITIZING WHAT MATTERS by Olabanji Joel Orolugbagbe

Image
Yesterday, I discharged a very demanding patient home. As she was about to leave the ward with her daughter, she called me over for a hug and expressed her gratitude. She told her daughter that I was a good nurse and was happy that I was part of her care team throughout her hospital stay. This gesture hit me differently, and it motivated me to do even more for my patients. As an adult with family responsibilities, I have come to realize that my profession is not just a job but a source of sustenance. I have learned to prioritize my role as a nurse above every thing I was actively doing before having a family, and the appreciation from patients like this one means a lot to me. Recently, I had a conversation with my cousin, and I shared with him that the only thing that can get under my skin is being told I am not good at my job because I see it as a threat to my source of livelihood and if genuinely done, I see it as a push to improve myself. I have accepted that I have shifted my focus...
