All men are like pepper, you never know how hot one is until you chew him. People wear different mask for different occasions and if you are unable to view beyond the mask, you may fall victim of their schemes. Just like bible say, many wolves in sheep clothing.
The truth is all men are self-centered by nature but some through knowledge, wisdom and understanding moved to higher dimension of selflessness.
Research and observation has shown that men are mainly of three categories. Lovers of lovers of honor, lovers of gain and lovers of wisdom. Please Note that all men desire all these but one must strongly dominate others in each individual and that’s what strongly influence his drive in life.
Lovers of gain; these individual goes to any extent to acquire what they crave for, their slogan is “at all cost “without minding the consequences and long effect of their action. Prostitutes, criminals, ritualist etc. belongs here. Most often they give all sort of reasons why they became like this but the truth is, it’s a choice and personal decision. Obstacle on our way can either serve as a stumbling block or stepping stone, many has gone through whatever they come up with but didn’t make same choice. No wonder bible say, “the love of money is the root of all evil”1st Timothy 6:10..
Lovers of honor; these categories do all to get the honor they crave for. Standing on their way is like standing on train track, they will crush any one to get there. Bad politicians, fake religious leaders etc all belongs here.
Lovers of wisdom; these category deny today’s gratification for tomorrow’s comfort. They painstakingly walk through life, knowing fully well that man must leap what he sow. they continuously seek knowledge so they won’t perish because of ignorance. They consider long run rather than short term benefit in whatever they do. It doesn’t matter the amount of difficulties or the pressure from the society and peers, they kept striving towards their ambition. Solomon picked wisdom and other things was added.
If there is anything worse than failure is fake success. People never realize that happiness does not come from money itself but from the joy of achievement and the thrill of creative effort. What we become as a result of aspiring for success is more important than the success itself. Money is not what we pursue but what we attract by becoming a person of value. Depression and suicide among top personnel are people who got there at all cost only to realize that they are empty and unhappy. Of what use is for us to be in a haste and miss the road. Money is not the end but a means to an end. Be ye wise and fulfill the purpose of your existence Don Mbaeme Peter.
