Selflessness is deceptive


When I preach against selflessness I'm not being a heck am just being honest and sincere because I have been there acting and believing  that everything I do is ultimately to benefit others without knowing that everything one does is eventually coming back to him good or bad so ultimately whatever you do is for your own good (forgiveness kindness help tolerance etc are selfish virtues)

To be selfish entails a character that reflects a recognition of his uniqueness by nature requires that it is nurtured and developed by the values he seeks in order to grow from seed to tree and bear fruit and must continue to seek out these values to keep bearing fruit. This must be a man's primary concern and placed above serving the purpose of others

I have denied the me in me the values it needs to grow and reach highest potential just to prove to my friends that I am a good person

I have sacrificed what the me in me really needed to grow in way of my career job and many other ways to be a good son and brother to my family

I have starved the me in me while searching finding and feeding my lovers the values they needed just to prove the genuineness of my love but never gotten true love reciprocated

Observe the progressive consequential disaster of this character. I have hitherto for purpose of attaining moral ideal allowed my moral philosophy be corrupted by altruism and have seen myself continually loose within and outside. After a revolutionary mind reprogramming did I realize that loosing yourself in pursuit of gaining another will eventually lead to loosing both you and the other there and then did I understand appreciate and upheld the virtue of selfishness

Several years later, I have been able to establish and grow meaningful relationships, recorded more successes and happiness since I became virtuously selfish because I realized that the other would love, appreciate and never want to leave as long as I remained me who will and can never get exhausted in giving out the value which they seek in the character which I exhibit

Being virtuously selfish is the character needed to redeem man's self-esteem from the hands of society and set him up for attaining significance from maximizing his uniqueness and potentials

The Reflections of the Philosopher

In my dream last night, was as though I was taken back in times over centuries ago to see and have a feel of what life looked like. This was some 16.... Years ago era before the first industrial revolution and I saw a man and a woman in a cart having two farm animals tied to it to pull it along with the tools which they use to work on the plant station or work area(was like the two people where the plant/factory owner) and how two boys were tilling and scrapping the ground using shovels with fullness of joy - was as if they were hoping and working with the intention that someday "I would rise beyond common labourer rising through foreman, supervisor, manager and someday own my own graving plant where I will employ and have others work for me and probably establish more stations and employ more people. That was their greatest ambition! their highest achievement. And many during that time will look at it too and thought it to also be a great dream/ambition. I could imagine polit...

THE PROFESSIONAL HOUSE-WIFE (EXPLORING THE CAREER PROSPECTS)

The job of parenting is an enormous task but a noble course of which the woman's role in it - Home making, is critical even the Bible says that "a wise woman builder her home but a foolish woman destroy it with her own hands and that's why I have a major issue with the ruling philosophy in our society characterized by civilization when it comes to issue of career for women. You see many people unknowingly publicly displaying their naivety, dishonesty and compromise of the integrity of upholding the value of their individuality as a woman by rejecting the role and office of a housewife as if it’s a curse because of what contemporary society has made us to believe and we have come to accept. This singular acceptance and publicizing of this philosophy has eaten deep into our society killing the esteem of the few who chooses to live in integrity to the value of woman in house wife office and reducing our men; making them irresponsible to man-up to their responsibility in the...

understanding the structure of the mind (Part 1)

I have established and have since been educating on the foundation that reality functions as a system - everything in the universe, having a specific feature and unique identity functions interdependently releasing and trading the unique value of their individuality as individuals and institutions towards sustaining the functionality of the system in an optimal and healthy state. However irrespective of the fact that reality's system is objective of any of the entities(observation or opinions)  existing inside of it, their individual experiences and the reality which they know are different. this is because of the mindset which I want to dwell extensively in discussing Many authors psychologist, motivational, speakers have done a lot of work on issue of mindset and mind transformation knowing that it is the basic resource or element that determine and has the power to decide the outcome of the life of an individual and even the whole universe that's why its important w...
