The Quotes today is credited to a Facebook friend of mine, Dumbor Joseph Nafo.

The Quotes:

• For you to achieve anything in this life, you have to put up a fight. You have to fight for it. If you don't put up a fight, you can't achieve anything.

• Don't be in the habit of discouraging people in every occasion. Encourage them. Your encouragement will spur them.

• In life, there is always a CHOICE. It is either you say YES or NO, or you YIELD or RESIST. Don't ever say You don't have a choice.

• Even if everyone is doing it, WRONG is never RIGHT.

• In everything you do in this life, don't be a HATER!

• I refuse to go back to the old me. I am becoming a better person using my past experience as lessons.

Success Story: How I went from a CGPA of 2.29 to 4.00 within a Semester

By -
Image
This is a Success Story shared by Olusola O'sola Fapohunda, a graduate of the Federal University of Technology, Akure. ----- In early 2010, I went with about four other guys in my department - to visit our level registration officer. We wanted to check our result. Each one of us, was with a paper and a pen. The lecturer in charge asked for our matriculation numbers and one after the other, he was reeling off grades, GPA and CGPA. He eventually got to me and I heard a digit that sounded like I've been shot. God! Me! 2.29. I've earned myself Grade E in some three unit courses and my best course was APH301, which I had a B with a score of 69. About six months later, I went to check my 300 level second semester result and I now had a CGPA of 4.00. That was the happiest day of my University education. I was rolling on the floor of the room. The previous semester has been hell, yet the one that followed it yielded this awesome result! What did I do? What did I change? What s...

Reasons Why it never worked out with Your Partner (by MG)

By -
Image
This is a combination of two posts written by Musa Gift (MG). The first is: Reasons S he left You / turned You down . The second is: Reasons H e broke up with You / never proposed . ----- Reasons She left You / turned You down So she just woke up and told you that it is over, or she said she can't go out with you, or be your "friend". But you have prayed and feel led to her, and she is stalling, or she just changed everything months or years into the relationship. You asked her for a reason and she said it is not you, it is her, and well, or that it is no longer working, or that you people are just not compatible. My brother, I know, sometimes these things happen like that idiopathically, but there are reasons, real reasons ladies break up with guys or reject proposals that they may not tell you – different reasons ranging from fear to the fact that they don't want to hurt your ego. So I have compiled a list, from what I have heard, read and per...

Why do People think that Introverts are Rude or Arrogant?

By -
Image
Myth #1 – Introverts don’t like to talk. This is not true. Introverts just don’t talk unless they have something to say. They hate small talk. Get an introvert talking about something they are interested in, and they won’t shut up for days. Myth #2 – Introverts are shy. Shyness has nothing to do with being an Introvert. Introverts are not necessarily afraid of people. What they need is a reason to interact. They don’t interact for the sake of interacting. If you want to talk to an Introvert, just start talking. Don’t worry about being polite. Myth #3 – Introverts are rude. Introverts often don’t see a reason for beating around the bush with social pleasantries. They want everyone to just be real and honest. Unfortunately, this is not acceptable in most settings, so Introverts can feel a lot of pressure to fit in, which they find exhausting. Myth #4 – Introverts don’t like people. On the contrary, Introverts intensely value the few friends they have. They can count their close fr...

Your Mind must keep being in control

By -
Image
You probably may have tried different exploits to get something to work or done but it seem to be infeasible. It gets worse when it drains you away and there is no strength left to give it just one more push. This is the break point – that moment when all you need is just a slight push but your strength is failing you. If your body is weak, your mind cannot afford to be weak. Your mind controls your body. If your will to Succeed in anything is low, there is a chance that you cannot win, for the desire to win and see the end of that, has to be and must be greater than the fear which comes when you doubt yourself or what you can do. Persevere and let the end game drive your desire to stand up and give it that final push that makes all the difference... ©Mindset ~Trippleff By: Tripple Friddle Frizzle Tff

Dream (from a motivational video)

Image
This is from a motivational video: Dream , by Mateusz M. ----- I don't know what that dream is that you have. I don't care how disappointing it might have been as you've been working towards that dream. But that dream that you're holding in your mind, that it's possible. That some of you already know that it's hard, it's not easy. It's hard changing your life. But in the process of working on your dreams, you are going to incur a lot of disappointments, a lot of failures, a lot of pains. There are moments when you're going to doubt yourself and say: God, why? Why is this happening to me? I'm just trying to take care of my children and my mother. I'm not trying to steal or rob from anybody, why this has to happen to me? For those of you that have experienced some hardships, don't give up on your dream. There are rough times that are gonna come, but they have not come to stay, they have come to pass. ----- Greatness is not this wond...

Your personal health and fitness is essential!

By -

"I am as passionate about personal health and fitness as I am about financial health. I believe your health is your most prized possession. It amazes me how many people pay no attention to their health. ... You know what you’re supposed to eat. We all do. Fresh fruits and vegetables, complex carbs, salads, whole foods, lean meats, more fish and poultry than beef... You know it, I know it, we all know it. So why do so many of us still go out and chow down cheeseburgers and fries every day? I’ll tell you why: because it won’t kill us. Not today. If you ate a cheeseburger and immediately suffered a near-fatal heart attack, would you ever go near a cheeseburger again? I doubt it. It may take twenty or thirty years, but when you add up the compounded interest on all that high-fat, artery-clogging dietary mayhem, eventually your poor overworked heart just quits, stops dead. And so do you. It has been said that we dig our graves with our teeth. It’s easy to ea...

Life is all about priorities

Few minutes ago (on the day this was written), a lady accosted me at a shopping mall (Market square at Trans-Amadi). We had an interesting conversation even though we just met. She asked for my contact address.... She was like.. "Since you stay around this axis...may I know your place? So I could visit tomorrow? She asked for my number, I requested to take hers instead and promised to give her a call tonight (I knew where it was all heading) Was she pretty? Of course she was my spec. Will I call her? Absolutely not! Why? She wasn't in the plan this year. There's no space for distractions. Life is all about priorities. If everything is important, then nothing is important. Some will say, 'Eh..what if she doesn't have any intentions... She just want to be friends' I hear! Eliminate every possibility of 'What ifs'. Young guys and ladies in our 20s. This is the only time we are permitted to be selfish with our time so that when we are in our 40s, ...

I am a seed. I cannot be buried. I can only be planted!

When life rejects you as a waste of lemon, shake off the tag and GROW up into a lemonade! I grew up to my early teenage in Ilorin, Kwara state, Nigeria and countless times, I saw my mum poured cooking waste water containing tomato and vegetable seeds into a corner of our backyard through the kitchen window. Also, I grew up always seeing some tomato and vegetable plants growing at the corners of our unused backyard turned dumping site for kitchen waste and I always wondered who planted them and in fact, I also always thought they were unhealthy vegetables since they grow on a mere dirty, sometimes stinking waste-dumping site. One beautiful Sunday evening, returning back from our church's evening service, we were all famished and mum was wondering what to cook. Lo and behold, she went to the backyard (God bless mothers) and came back with some very green and massively leafy vegetables. Before you say Jack's not hot (sorry, Jack Robinson), the aroma of a sweet efo riro (a popul...

Why Salt kills earthworms?

By -
Image
A lot of us have become used to using salt to kill earthworms when we encounter any in our houses. I've thought about this for a while now, but I recently decided to check it up and I'll share what I learnt about the science. Before that, I'll share some points about earthworms: - They are in the lumbricus genus, there are various species of earthworms, but the common earthworm's scientific name is lumbricus terrestris - Their digestive system runs through the length of their skin - Earthworms respire through their skin - They are hermaphrodites (each one carries both male and female sex organs) - They lack either an internal skeleton or exoskeleton , but maintain their structure with fluid-filled coelom chambers that function as a hydrostatic skeleton. Okay, let's talk about salt and earthworms: Earthworms respire and secrete mucus through their skins. Salt (sodium chloride) has the ability of absorbing moisture (desiccant). When a large quantity of salt i...

Forgive Yourself, and Slide back in

By -
Image
Most of us are familiar with the parable of the prodigal son in the Bible. You know how he foolishly asked for all that was his and how he wasteful spent it all. The question I want to ask is this: Which person in the story best describes you? Perhaps your inner life has been so transformed by God’s forgiveness that you can empathise with others and easily forgive like the father in the story, or perhaps, like the younger son, you’ve demanded God’s gifts and then run your way toward destruction. Maybe, you yearn to return to God, but you are fearful of rejection. Or perhaps, like the elder son, you look at others and say; “After all the horrible things they’ve done, how can God use them instead of me? No matter which person you identify with, no matter what your circumstance is, God wants to meet you in your need. If you have backslide, please slide back in. I know sometimes the hardest person you can forgive is the one you see in the mirror everyday (yourself). You simply can’t fo...
