"A New Generation, New Insight, New Vision"

This is an exclusive blog post by writer and motivational speaker, Babatunde Paul. "...Our Father's have tasted wealth, power, position, strength, authority and they no longer want to leave them for us to continue..."

Young African man

Beautiful Universe with one simple rule and order to follow to get to greater height. A new Generation with a new insight and vision, Generations come and dwell on what their past "Heroes" have built and before they leave, they create a platform for the forthcoming Generation to continue with. Life was designed to get easier by years but it seems to get easier by years but it seems to get harder and more difficult as the year goes by,this is just because of the miscalculation of order that was laid down.

Our forefather's struggled to make life a bit better for our father's but Our father's are bent on ruining them all for us to start again by not wanting to leave the position, power,fame and authority. I can remember the stories my father told me, back then their father's and elders never wanted to leave "Honour,position, wealth,fame" and so on, they wanted to remain there till they die but little did they know  that their ideas,insight and vision has expired immediately their son's "the next generation" got matured to take the mantle and to receive the baton.

They never knew that they were only using experience of the past and not their vision again because their time was up, they never wanted to understand just because of the little taste of power,and that their experience is for the past not for the future, their experience was only suppose to guide our father's through and once the vision,insight and ideas are expired or old they start from the beginning by taking us back. When our own Father's discovered they were also getting old and their forefathers were still on throne and in place of power and position they fought to get their rightful place, many died during the process, many survived to witness the change But the change couldn't last long because the next generation which is their "Son's" "We" have started growing up,they couldn't make a better platform for us because they had little or no time to do so and now our time as come  for us to use our New vision's, Insight and ideas of a new generation for the next step of this great country,Universe or wherever place we find ourselves but there is this problem we are facing,this same problem our Father's faced, this same problem that makes the world where it is now.

Our Father's have tasted wealth,power,position, strength,authority and they no longer want to leave them for us to continue and little do they know that they're only spoiling things not making it,little do they know that they are only making things difficult for the next generation, little do they know that we only get to the next stage when the baton is passed. This problem isn't that easy to wipe out because our Father's have failed to pass the right things to us, we only learn from what they've done.

If they don't realize fast and leave the position for the next carrier of memory,ideas,Vision and insight then the next generation is going to face the same problem. The only time we achieve most of what we have in life is our youthful age but when the power,platform and opportunity isn't there, we can only help it by using our old self,ideas and experience to make things better which is too late.

For example : The music Industry both Godly and worldly are making it seriously beyond bars because the people in place are the present Generation e.g Bola Are knows this and as a good woman passed her grace and gift to are daughter Yetunde Are and little more like that, in the worldly path "Pasuma Wonder" knows he his outdated and knows the present generation as what it take to get to the next step, he as started singing with their style,class and swag and even feature most of them so as to keep himself and his music career relevant.

Most Companies require young people fellows not because they are fresh graduates from the best univerties it's only because they know they've got all it takes to push their businesses and company forward. This is how it's meant to be even in government and in every sector. Have always wished to stand in front of people in place of power,authority and fame to speak these words so they can realize before it's too late, If we look at most developed countries, they only get better because they make good and adequate use of their youths.

Power isn't for life, but for a period of time. I can only share this little for now till God gives me the opportunity I require to speak of all he as sent me to.

Word of Advice : Give the next generation a chance and keep the next Generation INTACT.
