Deliberations online
Although there has been much speculation regarding the strengths and
weaknesses of face-to-face versus online deliberative settings, no
studies have systematically compared the two. Drawing on a national
sample of Americans who reported deliberating face-to-face and/or
online, we examine these two deliberative settings with regard to the
participants, the motivations, the process, and the effects. Our
findings, although tentative, suggest that the two settings are distinct
in several important ways. Relative to face-to-face deliberation,
online deliberation over-represents young, male, and white users,
attracts more ideological moderates, generates more negative emotions,
and is less likely to result in consensus and political action. At the
same time, online deliberators perceived online settings as more
politically and racially diverse. Implications for understanding the
democratic potential of different forms of deliberation are discussed.-->
Dear friend.
It only took me little time to realize how devastated you
have been. Sometimes, I worry about it two, there are so many things I wish you
understood about life which can’t be put to words, myself have too many
lessons to learn.
I ran into an old friend of mine today, it had been long we
saw each other last, we had about 4 hours of hearty discussions and wishes, as
if that was not enough, but that was today, we had the moments as it lasted,
today we had, yesterdays are gone and tomorrow is another day. Peoples can
change within the shortest given time, situations can turn things around,
someone may be smiling now, the next minute sadness reckons. Time varies,
weather and climate changes too, day
gives way for the night but in all this things one thing remains constant, it
took me time to figure this out, but is there really a constant in life?
Permanent? Yes or no?....it all boils down to what we want from/in life, that
is exactly what determines what is permanent in our lives. Anger, temper are
devilish tools of destruction, one moment you are happy, the next you are sad!, young and old!,
carefree and careful!, alive and death!. There is really nothing constant in
life even the life we live one day comes to an end. No condition is ever
permanent. Please do not let the condition of today weigh you down, there are
still more of goodies ahead of today and belief this, “it is only when the
going gets tough that the tough gets going”
Have you ever wondered about how lucky and privileged you
are today?. There are so many children out
there in the streets in the big cities, it is not an African or Nigerian
phenomenon, it is a global affair. Consider yourself to be more priviledged
than others out there in the streets without parental care, some of the kids
out there sleeps in the gutters, under the bridges in the highways, no parents,
no houses, no clothes, no one to talk to in the time of trouble, no hope for a
brighter tomorrow, what about you?. You have parents taking care of your need
and sends you to school......
think about it....

It does not really matter how we start in life, neither does
how we make it to the top matters, what really matters is now that you are
here,” what have you become, were you able to turn your hardships to fortunes,
failures to success”.
People do not know who you are when you are suffering, when
you are stuck up in failures, nobody really gives a damn about you, they don’t
really care for you in such times, now what do they care about ‘hey that guy is
rich, how did he manage to make it?, who helped him out?, when?, why? Where?.’
Every man has a story to tell, but it is not all about
telling stories, the truth is that most times when we do not get the expected
outcome or result from our toils or investment and we tend to push our minds to
the fact that God has forgotten us, but the good things in life does not come
easy, had it been they do, we may not appreciate God and may not probably value
what we had.
There are lessons we learn unconsciously, without our
contempt or mindset. There are also things that we come across in our everyday
life, then we feel that such things may not be needed in our life, and yet
those things keep reoccurring and before we know what is happening, it becomes
part of us that we can hardly say no to it, most times when we have failed to
learn from them, they comes back in another form thus taking different shapes.
A man without vision is life a tree without branches or
fruits. How do you see your tomorrow?, take for instance the next ten years,
where are you going to be?, are you going to be happy with the way you have
been living your life? Or are you going to be full of regrets. The time to
start is today, now. Change can only come when we seek for it.
Who will you blame for your failures?

In the end, we will not only remember the words of our
enemies, but the silence of our friends….

4 top Reasons why things don’t work
out the way you plan.
Do you have
a plan awaiting execution? What happened to that precious dream of yours? Why
are you still where you are? Aren’t you tired of doing nothing and probably
doing the same thing over and over again? In this article I have tried to
analyze the 4 top reasons why that plan
of yours failed these includes;
1. Wrong Decision: decision making forms
an integral part of every human being, and all human activities which is
distributed through all areas of human endeavor such as business, education,
politics, friendships, family ties, careers and lots of them. Decision can go a
long way to determine the outcome of an investment and or business opportunity,
time or monetary engagement, therefore when such decision are wrongly taken, it
affects the outcome and the successful completion of ones task or job at hand.
A college dropout took the decision to dropout of college with some certain
reasons, despite pressures mounted and advices from both the parents/guardians
and or counselors on college then other student follows suit and take it upon
themselves to complete a university degree against all odds. There are
factors/reasons that can influence ones decision making ability and these
factors can vary from one individual to another. These factors can range from
finance, time, competition, peer and family pressure
2. Procrastination: this kills your
precious time and leaves your ideas in illusion, dream world. like a mirage You only see it yet it is not
real. Therefore take the first step. Make a move toward the right direction on
achieving your goal. Remember the popular saying, “a journey of a thousand
miles begins with a step”. It is easier said than done. Stop saying, start
doing.
3. You are dealing with the wrong
people; move out of your zone, meet with the right people, make the right
connection. No one that is ill goes to a lawyer for medical counseling. Of what
use is a lawyer in medical cases? If you are a businessman, seek for the right
partnership to grow your business. Remember “birds of the same feather flocks
together”
4. You are asking the wrong questions;
ask yourself this simple question, aren’t you tired of doing nothing, or doing the same
thing over and over again without getting good results?, get engaged with new
things.. Ask the right questions. Going for a beauty contest, you should ask
yourself this question, Am I beautiful enough to win this contest? Or a dancing
competition, ask yourself can I dance very well? Seeking for a job, ask
yourself do I have the right qualifications to be hired? As a student, you
should be able to ask yourself this question, how can I excel above my mates? The
right answers will come when you ask the right questions. Remember even when it
is not working well as planned, try the final shot, one last time couldn’t get
any better except you change your approach from the initial plan that didn’t
work out fine.
