This intelligent hardworking icon to reckon spoke on LIVING A LIFE OF campus. She tutored us on finding a life purpose.
She defined purpose as the reason while something is done or used. She talked about vision and referenced the Bible for some manifestations of purposes and visions.
According to her, to realise your mission, you need a purpose, a mission, your vision and your smart goals.
if you want to keep something secret do not tell it. If you do not want to do shameful no-one should know about, do not do it
She Furtherly lectured us on how to know you're not living a life of purpose which includes;
- you wake up in the morning, you are not where you ought to be and have no plan setup for that
- you are against the society and the truth
- you are surrounded by people whose quality you do not admire
- reading just to pass exams😂 this one in particular amazed the students.
She also spoke on how to find your purpose
- First define yourself. Who are you?
- analyse your strength, values and weaknesses.
- define your context, environment .
Finally she rounded up on ways to maximize your potentials.
- know your source! God is your source.
- know your resources, finances, capabilities.

She educated us on dressing. The differences between dressing and clothing.
She displayed pictures on slides and the students identified the occupation of the individuals on the picture by their dress codes.
She stated that the purpose for dressing was to cover nakedness and if one walks half naked while not walk naked at once?
She talked about signatures and need to dress according your your financial strengths.
She implored that a signature should be fit for purpose.
Negative dressing tells the opposite sex you're available and that results in some cases of rape.
She referenced this popular saying from a movie—
the king will not perform well in that role while he is dressed like a riff-raff.

Health is ranked from 0-100%
You can be 50% healthy but no one can be 100% healthy going by the definition of health.
She advised students to apply the concept of 101 feeding system instead of 110 or 011.
She informed student that the mini-stadium should serve as a ground for exercise. That students should go jogging every morning at the mini-stadium.
