@_abelonuh@AskMichaelTaiwo Yes, you are right. I must find some schools that do not require the GRE, but I am always afraid they might not give me full funding if I don't have something special like a high GRE score
@JohnRad15@FaraiMazhindu@OgbeniDemola You are right; only government bureaucracy can legislate roads, hospitals, schools, and energy infrastructure into existence with a decree. And development depends on our mood swings

You have probably heard of the marshmallow test.
Give a child one marshmallow. Promise a second if they can wait fifteen minutes without eating the first. The kids who waited, the story goes, grew up more successful. Proof, we were told, that willpower is destiny.
For decades we repeated it as gospel.
Then in 2018, a team led by Tyler Watts retried it with a far larger and more diverse group of children.
Most of the magic dissolved.
Once they accounted for a family's income and background, the link between waiting and later success all but disappeared.
And underneath was something profound. Children from poorer homes ate the marshmallow sooner. Not from weak character, but from hard-earned wisdom. Their lives had taught them that a promised later reward often never comes. So take the sure thing now.
The test was not measuring willpower. It was measuring whether a child had grown up in a world that kept its promises.
We love to credit discipline and blame its absence. But so much of what looks like self-control is the luxury of a stable, trustworthy home.
Before you judge anyone's willpower, look closely at the world that taught it to them.
@mudenje@FaraiMazhindu@greybtc Democracy does not mean holy or kind with others , the U.S constitution declared that every man is free and equal yet they did not consider our ancestors to be human. The thing is individual freedom and rights , the rule of law and separation of powers will make any nation great
