The Year 2018

By

Picture credit:daystarng

Everything is still seemingly new; new dreams, new hopes, new ambitions and high expectations. There’s something we all want to be. There is at least a thing you want to have achieved by the end of the year 2018. 
It’s not about what your friends, folks and even foes want or hope for you but about what you want for yourself because in the end, it’s all about you.

 So, what do you want?
You may be familiar with the phrase “if you stand for nothing, you can fall for anything”, it can also be said that if you don’t have a plan, anything can and is set to happen to you. 

Don’t be a victim of circumstances. They are the worst kind of victims because they are found in unfortunate situations that could have been avoided if they had a plan they were working with.

What exactly am I driving at?  Have a clearly stated vision, goal, and plan for your life this year. Let it be SMART and workable. Don’t stop there, work with it, talk about it, ponder about it and sleep on. Yes, let it wake you up, drive your daily activities, inspire the things you do, determine your disposition to life and of course, lull you to sleep at night.  A plus side to this is that you can be sure of getting definite help, counsel, guidance and resources when you know what you want.

This is not about resolutions; it’s about a plan that works for you.

We celebrate birthdays, anniversaries, events, and even memorials because they symbolize achievements and milestones. You want to something (s) to celebrate at the end of the year? Write it down now.

Write the VISION and make it PLAIN that YOU may RUN as you READ it.

Failure!

By
Failure. A word no one wants to associate with. Failure is a negative  word. No  one wants to be called a failure or acknowledge failure. However, it's almost inescapable. We fail so that  we can succeed oftentimes.  Also, failure teaches us to lookout for the missing ingredient (s) and position ourselves not to leave out that important ingredient again. Failure isn't a random rain drop. It's usually a result of some activities. When we fail, what do we do? What's our approach to failure? How do we channel our failure and ensures it leads to success at the end of the day? First, there is the need to come to terms with the failed end result and realise that failure doesn't mean the end of our dreams and the pursuit of our goals. Self forgiveness is highly important here.  Some of us are prone to being judgemental.  We think no good of ourselves and over critise and condemn ourselves.  We can't move past that failure if we keep putting ourself down.

YOU ARE NOT UNEMPLOYED

By
To be unemployed means to be jobless, to not be in a paid employment, to not be in use. Credit: Getty Images So, are you unemployed? The fact that you are not officially on the list of employees in a firm or organization does not make you unemployed. Even if you are not an entrepreneur in any form, you are still not unemployed.  Yes, the fact that you have something to do (you are not jobless) you are of value (in use) and can get a form of remuneration (be paid for what you do) means you are not unemployed. You are unemployed and in fact unemployable if you are totally jobless, have no value that makes you useful and cannot be paid in return for certain products, services or value added. So, are you unemployed?

This is actually supposed to make you look ...

Ain't sulking

Our lives are very important, it's the basis of every other thing.  Without your life, you can't claim to love certain persons, to love some activities and so on. Death is said to be inevitable, that means we all are going to be gone sometime.  Why then should we live with regrets, why should we have a malicious habit, why should we be greedy, why should be unrepentant and unaccomodating, why should be sad,why should we hate? Death is a life time bomb,it can explode at anytime, and when that happens, its main target is life,our life's.  Let us love our lifes, let us love our selves, let's be willing to leggo when we are supposed to. Let us hold hands,let us smile, let us embrace, let us kiss our loved one's, let us suck in the air hungrily, after all, it's free! The essence of life is love, when hate and anger takes over, then death comes closer and very painful.
