SAVING DROWN

Image
By Michael Igele Sally is a regular girl who has not swim in any river above four feet deep. She visit the beach and enjoyed strolling along its shores  once in a while. Sometimes,  she  sw im  briefly at the shallow part only to run out when the wave start rolling close. Lagos was full of frightening waters. She was twenty two years old when she travelled with her mother to the village during the sectional holiday. She was fair in complexion, long legs and had a brilliant look. Her hair was lovely, dark and curly. A rubber type of hair that made her beauty more charming. She enjoyed the company of her consanguine and family friends who took her serious ;she  loved adventures.  The spirit of being in the wild was so fascinating to her .  She could see and touch anything for free. When the children and some older ones said they were going to the river to swim and thereafter fetch water home, Sally too picked up her swimming suit and followed. The oldest among them was two yea

IN-DEPT LEARNING

Image
         Dunmoye Femi        Students across the globe have different systems or methods which they use to read or study. For example, ‘uploading and downloading’ is one of the ways one can read. This is contrary to an ideal method of reading: In-depth learning. This is very effective and will be discussed here further.             In-depth learning means learning as much as possible about a particular topic. In-depth learning brings a clear picture between reading and studying. The in-depth learning enhances the reading for the sake of knowledge and understanding, and not only for the sake of passing a test with high grades or trying to impress people.             This takes me back to the memory lane. When I was doing my Diploma course at Kwara State Polytechnics,Ilorin. The system of reading by many students was ‘cramming’ when going to the examination hall or a few days to the exams. After the exams, if you ask from such students about what they have read, they would

EYE ( VISION AND SIGHT )

Image
“Good morning, Doctor. How is life treating you?” “Good morning, Ladi. How is madam and the children?” “They are fine. Sorry, Doctor, please, I was told you are an optometrist. I am just hearing that for the first time. Is it the same as optician or ophthalmologist?” “Well, well, the optician, optometrist and the ophthalmologist are all eye care professionals, treating and maintaining the eye (vision and sight), complementing one another for the good of the patients.” “The optician is someone trained to grind and fix lenses into frames. He is a technician, who in the real sense has no business diagnosing diseases of the eye. He is not trained to test the eyes in any way. He simply receives prescription from the optometrist, ophthalmologist and patients to fix correctly into glasses. He also repairs damaged frames and advises patients on which frame shape best fits his/her face. He may be described as a face architect or Engineer. The optometrist is a trained professio

Stage fright

Image
By : Michael Igele ACT 1 SCENE 1 John, a final year student of University of Benin has been preparing for a seminar presentation. He has wondered how to overcome stage fright. The topic is very familiar to him and he believes he can do well but for stage fright. ACT 1 SCENE 1 Enter  John :    Good morning sir! Pharmacist : Good morning young man, how can I help you? John :        Please sir, I am presenting a seminar this afternoon, do you have any drug that can suppress stage fright? Pharmacist :   There are no such drugs except hard drugs which I do not sell, but strictly on prescription by the Doctor. You mean you don’t know what to do to overcome stage frights? So you just go to school without anything in your head. All you do is to read all the way but still leave empty space in your brain. When I was in school, I knew what to do. What everybody does including your professors and doctors before going for lectures. John :                     (covered by curios

The Four Levels of Customer Satisfaction

Image
By Brian Tracy If sales are the engine that drives your business, then customer satisfaction is the fuel. Your ability to satisfy your customers is the critical determinant of your success in driving sales and growing your business. There are four levels of customer satisfaction, all based on the degree to which you meet customer expectations. The higher the level you achieve, the more you will build customer loyalty and the greater will be your success. Meet Customer Expectations The minimum requirement to simply stay in business—to survive—is to meet the expectations of your customers. At this level, your customers have no complaints. They are satisfied for the moment. But they are not loyal. If a competitor demonstrates that it can and will do more than merely meet their expectations, your customer will very quickly become ex-customers. Moreover, if you fail to meet their expectations, perhaps only one time, they will leave and find someone else who will. It can be instructi

POWER OF LOGO

Image
      It is often said that “a picture is worth a thousand words,” and this statement also rings true when it comes to corporate logos. Who among us doesn’t recognise Apple, Nike, Coca-Cola, or McDonald’s from just their logo? In their truest sense, corporate logos are a type of shorthand, allowing consumers to instantly recognise the company and its product. However, logos do not act alone but are part of a company’s visual brand identity program which includes the logo, the design, the colors used and the marketing message. As an example, consider the company that, in my own opinion, is the most widely known company brand in the world: Coca Cola. From its inception more than 120 years ago, the Coca-Cola logo has used the stylistic handwriting of Frank Robinson – no relation to the author – as part of the logo. The wavy red letter writing over a silver background is instantly recognizable whether it is on a can of soda or the cardboard packaging.
