The law of magnetism

In my mother language, Shona, we have a saying that "dzinofura nzivani," losely translating that those (cattle) of like habit graze together. People who possess similar habits tend to be naturally attracted to each other. Rotten meat invariably attracts flies. If you want to attract quality, make sure you possess and exude quality. As John C. Maxwell puts it: "Who you are is who you attract."

This is applicable in all kind of situations and relationships. You can choose who and what you want to be. It all begins in the mind: inside-out.

Remember you're a sum total of what you read, watch, do, say etc. You have the power to decide who you want to be. As the Bible says in Philippians 4vs13 (ESV); "I can do all things through him who strengthens me." May the Lord help you to become the kind of person you desire to attract.

The tourist interrupted, "I have an MBA from Harvard and I can help you! You should start by fishing longer every day. You can then sell the extra fish you catch. With the extra revenue, you can buy a bigger boat." "And after that?...

Given the array of diseases that afflicts goats, I think it is critical that like last week, I also devote a bit of time on the most common goat afflictions, specifically pneumonia, bloat, diarrhoea and foot rot, and their remedies. Other common diseases that farmers need to take note off are orf, liver fluke and enzootic abortion. A point to further note is that these diseases also affect sheep and other domestic animals. Orf Orf, also called scabby mouth, is a highly contagious, viral disease that affects goats, sheep and occasionally humans. The disease causes wart-like lesion on the skin of goats and sheep and is caused by a poxvirus called Para...
