Relationship Series (Introduction)

By -
Some years ago, I began to have some thoughts about life. Everyday, we come across people who put up false happiness. Everyone's trying to be truly happy, and everyone surely deserves that, because there's no life without happiness. But a lot of persons are much unhappy inside than they seem to be. Sometimes the pain they feel deep inside gets to a threshold, where they can't keep on putting up false happiness, and their true feelings are more often expressed. For a good number of persons, they redefine happiness, and their definition of happiness does not bring them true happiness, though it feels so at the beginning, but at the end, it only adds to the pain they already feel. At the same time, their search for happiness causes pains to others who are averagely happy or whose happiness is below average. Relationships are part of life. Everything about life thrives on relationship. For every society to be progressive, there must be a greater part of the society with posi...

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...

The Art of Leadership (by Daniel Otabor)

I am a member of "The Let's Talk About Series" community. I'll be sharing notes from Daniel Otabor on The Art of Leadership, a lesson delivered this year, in the month of January. Let's Talk About Series is a personal and career development discussion platform that discuss diverse topics to help boost people's productivity and build personal confidence. They are passionate about self discovery, and believe the strife for personal development helps in adding value to one's life; creating opportunities and setting priorities for the areas that make them most effective. You can check out the community on Facebook. ---------- Daniel Otabor : You know guys, Leadership is like the dilemma of life. It is both easy to understand and complex to grasp. Just like humans. This is because truly, Leadership begins and ends with understanding your purpose first, and then leading it. There was a time I told an audience that as long as you breathe, you are a leader....

Your job is to identify the problems of people and find a Solution to it

By -
Image
As an entrepreneur, your job is not to create problems for people. Your job is to identify the problems of people and find a solution to it. Listen to every conversation, on social media, forums, meetings, blog comments, etcetera. Pay attention to their questions, frustrations, complains, desires, goals, fears and dreams. It is from these emotions that you build products and services from. And when your sales copy contains the exact word these people use to vent their frustrations, you have won 90% of their attention. The other 10% would be determined by the benefits, urgency, pricy and other things that make people buy from you. So, you shouldn't spend time thinking about what niche to focus on. You shouldn't be thinking niche. You should be thinking problems and solutions. Whether you want to start a blog, a business, a podcast, a company or whatever. Let it be based on people's problems and desires. People do not care about your high sounding title. What they care...

Follow your priorities and the things that gives you Fulfillment

Oga, I'm carrying you for free... The cloud was rumbling, the sky was giving away it's brightness, droplet of water were beginning to escape the sky. The lecturer kept explaining the concept behind excelling in a case study. I had lost touch, my mind was on the street thinking how I would get home. I couldn't wait for the class to end. I put up some stunt to make the lecturer call it a day. As efico, he finally set us free. I packed my writing materials at the speed of light, I dashed out to hop on the next available means of transportation. The roads were flooded by then, motorists splashing water here and there. After 15 minutes of waving, I decided to do some exercise. I stood a minute walk from where I was, the day was giving way for darkness to dominate. I still couldn't get any means of transportation. I was beginning to feel the cold. Thankfully, a bike stopped in front of me. "Oga, I'm going to (fill in the gap)..." "Boss, your money na ...

Be Willing to take down the walls You built around Your Heart

By -
Image
If you're really serious about loving someone, you must first be willing to take down those walls you built around your heart. Your beauty is on the inside. Open up all the entrances to your heart so we can inspect the damage that has been done. Inside the damage is where your healing is. Inside the cracks is where your loving kindness has been hiding. Show us your past. Tell us what happened. We need details. We need to know who inflicted those wounds. We need to know the history of each scar. Using compassionate listening and gentle uplifting words, the process of healing can proceed. We need to see you cry. We want to feel your fears. Some memories have been buried inside our subconscious that we think they never happened. We want to dig inside the subconscious to uproot those childhood traumas. We want to know your dreams. Tell us where and when you derailed. If it hurts then it's good for you. There is nothing outside. Everything is inside. We want to know what you still s...

To be Successful, One must love Patience and Enjoy the Process

There has never been more pressure than it is now for young entrepreneurs to become millionaires. So because I post on Facebook daily, friends and family assume that I'm one multimillion dollar ultra successful entrepreneur (which I am anyways). The other day I was with my best friend and he asked me jokingly, "when will you marry?" My response was, "heck! At age 30 I should have travelled to at least 10 countries in the world and you're here talking of marriage", "who marriage epp?" We both laughed. What does this mean? Pressure! There's pressure to marry. Pressure to "hammer". Pressure to become a millionaire. Pressure to start "supporting" the family. Damn it! Pressure everywhere! So you see young people running here and there with the desire to "make it in life". Suddenly, a graphic designer somewhere in Rumuola feels he's a failure because he doesn't have up to 1M in his account. Everyone seems to...

What Exactly Do We Do In Relationships?

"HELP! I am 25years old. Before I married my husband, he used to bring all sought of cars to visit me in my house and when I asked the job he does, he told me that he is a car dealer. Just three months after our marriage, I got to know that he works at a car washing bay". So for 25 years on earth even after wasting four years on campus to be confirmed a graduate, someone can still be operating at this level of foolishness, in this modern time? What exactly do we do in relationships? Aside sex, money, gifts and outings. What do we really define relationship to be? Why won't marriages continue to fail when major priorities are been neglected? Ladies and Gentlemen hear me, so long as are we only interested for that momentary gifts that's never enough even after gathering from different sources, our joy in relationships can never be actualized! Forget it, no prayers. "Any Friendship Without An Exchange Of Impact is Equal to Fendship" – Evans Chima W. So fa...

Approaching Faith with a heart of Fear blinds Us

By -

I normally take a walk in the evenings. The practice of solitude on the street... the idea of being quiet on a road full of noisy commuters seems heavenly to me. It makes me feel different and that's exactly the kind of environment I can unwind. This evening, it was church-time for some folks. Because I wasn't walking alone, I had to be chatty with my colleague. We spoke from petty politics to travelling abroad and just as we got in front of this church, I asked him why people went to church. He retorted: "Fear!" Immediately, I checked the faces of those who were praying at the end of a screaming minister's voice and it was shocking to find their faces full of the very thing my friend said--fear. I couldn't chastize my friend for being so blunt or so easily dismissive of people's piety. He was simply right! There's a lot of fear going around, masking as the front for people's devotion. The fear of missing heaven. The fear of losing one's sa...
