Be Armed: Information Is It!

My mum, a market-woman who deals in various food items, taught me something. Being with her as achild has made me to come to terms with the strength and rescue one gets from information; no matterhow petty the piece of information may be. Each time, my mum came home with the news of how someitems in the market have taken slight changes in their prices; there were always stories to tell. Thelesson point for me in her market-stories was the part she would desultorily narrate how a customerwho had hitherto learnt of a slight change in price of a particular item had come to her stall, hoping tocash in on her ignorance to get an item at a price it was used to be sold. My mum would later go on totell us that she would have been had by the customer if not for the timely information a fellow market-woman had passed to her a few moments before the encounter. From this, it stuck to my head that in aslong as information creates wealth, the insatiable thirst human has for information will never allow theuninformed to have it equally as the informed. In her kind of business setting, keeping up to date withprice-movement is sacrosanct. This is done to have sufficient capital to be able to match the current priceof a commodity.

What makes the mistakes you make costly is in the immenseness of the information you let slip of you.Just like in Law, a defaulter bears the brunt of his disobedience to a rule even though he claimsignorance. The children of Israel who died in the wilderness after the return of the twelve spies fromCanaan died on their ignorance. Only the two, Caleb and Joshua, who had the basic info about thesupremacy of the God they were serving got spared { Num. 13:26-33, 14:26-38 }. This is what informationdoes to you; you are always spared from general calamity. What makes a man arrive at his destinationearlier is not because he knows the way that everybody also seems to know, it is his ability to beatothers to it faster by taking a detour with relevant information that gives him speed.

Daniel could also have died with the wise men of Babylon under Nebuchadnezzar if he hadnt got thereal info to the kings dream. What separated Daniel from the other interpreters was the exclusiveinformation he had on how to go about reminding the king of his dream and interpreting it { Dan. 2:14-21 }. I do not know how Joseph would have ridden so fast to the ladder of fame if he hadnt givenPharaoh the answers to his dream { Gen. 41:25-44 }. As you must have known, information still remains

the years-long secret that hasnt lost his value with numerous passages of seasons. What makes thecorporate world different from other unorganized institutions is their resourcefulness with info. Eversince the Fall of man in the Garden of Eden, those who neglect information have never stoppedbecoming the battered victims.

Information is not only the embedded streak in the culture of man that births civilization; it is anecessary tool for creation. When it is despised, our guards for survival are weakened and we becomeeasy preys.

Im glad to bring you to the conclusion that the reason why that same situation has always toppled youover all this while is because it advances more on you than you advance in getting solutions to it.
