YOUR RIGHT DESTINATION

Image
Never mistake a shovel for a spade... Yeah, both look similar but very different. Same thing applies to movement and progress. The fact that you're spending time on whatever you're doing doesn't mean you're making progress in life; don't get me wrong! "The speed of movement and distance covered doesn't count once you begin rowing towards the wrong direction". How would you look at an engineering student who misses his lectures just to attend medical students' lectures? Or a person who's actual destination is Enugu but decides to enter a bus heading to Lagos??? Of course he's making a movement, but that doesn't mean that there's a progress tag on his actual aim. People at home might think there's progress on his journey, but is that actually true?? He will arrive Lagos, which is actually better than Enugu in terms of development, but does that grant him a successful journey, NO! The journey is only successful if y

COMFORT ZONE

I feel good you know; I feel nice... πŸ€ͺπŸ€ͺπŸ€ͺ Was I singing??? No I wasn't, just trying to introduce one of the dream killers I know; "Comfort zone".  That feeling of excess relaxation, feeling that all is okay as long as you have enough to sponsor your three square meals, your fees are covered, maybe you don't lack any basics in life. Let me thinkπŸ€”, is life only about the basic amenities and necessities, of course not. There's more to life than just having basic amenities. If life was only about the normalities then they wouldn't be anything like extraordinary; if you didn't have any need to make a difference in this world then there would have been no need for your existence. Maybe you think you were born just to prevent your mom from being called " childless ". Or maybe just to preserve your family name. If that's all you're here to do on Earth then your existence is not necessary. You were born for a purpose far beyond f

NIGERIA @59: A message from We Inspire

The day we remember the struggles, sacrifices and success of the long-gone generation. That was the generation that was always ready to give all they could for the advancement of their nation. But what do we have 59 years after their dream was manifested and their struggles paid off? All we have is a nation who's pride lies in overpopulation and past glory, a nation with a failed government and pseudo-democracy, a nation where every election/swearing in is an inauguration of yet another set of pocket-concious politicians. We're left with a nation where tribalism, corruption and terrorism is the order of the day, even the government is already a threat to it's citizens.       But then, in the presence of a failed government, are we just going to fold our hands as citizens and watch the country get worse as the day goes by? OF COURSE NOT! It's

Being able to stop procrastinating can completely start to change your life around for the better. Procrastination occurs when you have something to do, you know you should be doing it, but for one reason or another, you’re not doing it. This can be a habit that can literally destroy your life if you don’t take control of it. This article will be about why we procrastinate as well as give you some tips to help you take action more often in order to achieve your goals and get done what needs to get done. What Causes Procrastination? Before you can stop procrastination, you first need to understand what causes it in the first place. It’s actually quite simple.

Have you ever procrastinated on studying or writing a term paper? Of course you have. But why do we do this when we know it’

50 LESSONS OF LIFE

If you can do what you love for a living, life will be a lot less stressful and a hell of a lot more fun. (Lisa B., 41) A smile is one of the few contagious things that you should spread.

LIFE AND YOUR TIME-FRAME

LIFE AND YOUR TIMEFRAME, Everyone has their own life calender specially prepared by God; so don't feel bad when your colleagues succeed before you, just do your best and wait on God.  The article is a big-time eye opener that you can't afford to miss. By: Aghaedah, Tochukwu Oti       The word "life" is one unique element in this world. It is the only period/opportunity that man has to achieve all he desires to achieve and it comes only in one phase. Once it is gone it can never be retrieved except by god's special intervention through miracle. So many might believe in reincarnation but it's just nothing but a piece of superstitious belief, even the Bible stated that after death comes judgement, therefore, any second phase of life can only be experienced at your place of eternity, i.e., either in heaven or hell. Life on earth has only but one phase, it has no part/season 2, therefore, strive to achieve the best you can while you have the opportunity, end
