10 Great wisdom of Ants that will change your life forever.







Although Ants appear to be the minutest creature, yet the wisest man on earth -King Solomon submitted himself to their tutelage.

King Solomon enrolled in the School of Ants and learnt great wisdom about life through the wisdom he observed in the way Ants live.

According to his record in

Proverbs 6:6-8

"Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:

Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler, Provides her meat in the summer, and gathers her food in the harvest."

Having understood that, I have compiled this 10 Great wisdom of Ants that will change your life forever.



1. Ants are good time managers



The Ants are very wise and understand timing perfectly well. They know when they should be doing a particular activity and they stick to their schedule.

They know when it is summer or winter. They are not distracted by anything outside their daily schedule. They are good planners of time.

They know when to work and when to rest.



2. Ants dream big



Imagine that ants can build an ant hill as big as or even bigger than a human house. They are great architects. They know what they want. They dream big and are ready to give it all it takes to achieve it.



3. Hardwork



In the ant kingdom, laziness is forbidden. Every ant is busy working extremely hard to handle it's own responsibility. There is no room for laziness.

That's why King Solomon said, " Go to the ant, you lazy man and learn..."



4. Ants are self motivated



Ants don't need your encouragement to know what is good for them. They don't need any leader, Preacher or motivational speaker to ginger them or boost their morale.

They are purpose driven, vision oriented, have a sense of defined responsibility and direction. They are totally self motivated!



5. Ants are selfless



Ants are not selfish in their motives. If one ant finds food somewhere, it goes to tell others. If one ant finds another dead, it goes to tell others and together they carry the corpse.



6. Ants greet each other



Ants love, respect and greet each other. Even in their busyness, you will observe them from time to time k*ss one another as they pass.

In other words, they show care for one another.



7. Ants are excellent managers



Ants understand the need to save what they get in the summer, store it up and use it in the winter when they are hibernating, need to conserve energy and cannot go out to get food.

They don't consume all they get at once. Savings is their culture. They are good financial managers.



8. Ants Build their own home



It is hard to find ants who don't have a place to stay. No matter how little, ants plan for their own home and together they build their own shelter.



9. Ants maximize their potential



Did you know that an ant can carry a weight 10 to 50 times his own body weight? That is superhuman strength.

Ants may look feeble but they are great weightlifters. They employ great strength and endurance to enable them accomplish their goals.



10. They have unity and cooperation.



This is one highly admirable quality of ants. It is not rare to see them working together with one mind and purpose.

Sometimes you wonder how they communicate their intention or share their vision.

Talk about team work? The ants deserve a huge thumbs up for that!





What are other interesting things you have observed about ants? Do you think ants are wiser than human beings? Share your thoughts and let us know.

Ant castes are queens, workers and males. The queen ant lays eggs. Males die not long after they mate. The worker ants are female ants and most of them stay in the ant nest and complete tasks like tending to the young.

A colony of ants can contain more than one queen, but this depends on what species it is. Queen ants are usually the biggest ants in the colony. A queen ant has wings but removes them after mating. Male ants have wings too. Worker ants do not have wings.

Mind blown cool

The man that brings ant-infested faggóts into his hut should not grumble when lizards begin to pay him a visit- chinua Achebe

The man- The Nigerian people

Growing up, there used to be an ant hill close to where I stay that ants usually form a straight line, while carrying out there usual routine.

I always, crushed biscuit for them and sit and watch how they pick the crumbs one after the other..

*sigh*

How time flies. Can't imagine that we could ones derive joy from watching ants pick food!!

Very nice writeup, also consider the attached pic of John Lubbock's observations of ant. You can see why the Bible asked for us to consider them, they would not purposely degrade themselves by being drunk with alcohol as most human beings have done. They are truly amazing creatures

Kindly note that point number 2 does not refer to ants but termites. Even though it's called an anthill, it's actually termites that builds those hills and they are taxonomicaly different from ants. Notwithstanding, the same writeup could be said of termites.

Furthermore, do you know that ants practice Agriculture? Inside their chambers, they have their own farms for mushrooms that's why you observe them cutting leaves to their homes, where they condition it to give them mushrooms for their nutrient requirements and also, if you have ever noticed let's say a mango tree with folded leaves with ants on them, those are ants farmers rearing insects to produce sugary honeydews for them, in return, they offer such insect protection, food and a condusive environment.
