ARE YOU MANAGING OR JUST MICING?

 We live in a world where people are mostly moved by sentiments so we tend to miss the logical aspect of situations. I’m not the custodian of knowledge, actually no one is except the creator, but i believe sharing my views can help people reason better on this topic.

Firstly, we have to define what we mean by micing and managing. I’ll use examples to describe them. For example, you live in a country where life is tough. Inflation is rife, fuel prices are hiked, exchange rate is steadily on increase and so on and so forth. Then there’s you, an individual struggling to survive. You are being paid little to the point that even to pay for necessities such as bills, food, transport, data is a problem. Many people face this today in Nigeria except those who are lucky to get assistance from family members. Everyday you pray that one day, things will be better for you so that you won’t only afford your needs but also your wants….insatiable wants.

Ever since I was born, I have never seen anyone who doesn’t like the good things of life and at least, dream of having them but at that point, he/she can only afford what they need, even if it’s little. That way you manage what you have until you make it. That is the way people manage themselves so even if you see them, I’m not so good or worn out clothes, don’t think they don’t want to better their lives. Things are very hard for them. Think about it friend.

Then there’s the opposite of what has been described. Let me even continue from that example. So, you finally make it, you eventually marry and start a family but………The house is in bad condition, same as the car. The food stuffs are not enough. Neither do your children nor you and your wife dress good at least. The children’s school fees are yet to be paid but you’re a millionaire businessman with huge money sitting in your account. Your wife finds out and asks you why you deliberately deny your family at least a comfortable life and you say it’s because you suffered so much for the money, so you don’t want it to waste…..hmm very laughable. Since you acknowledged you suffered and you know how difficult it was, why punish yourself and your family, now that you are comfortable?

You are a MICER!!!
