KEY TO SUCCESS PART 2

Hey there, how are we all doing? I am sure things have been going on well and as usual, we are all trying to hustle. We no lazy nah. We all keep moving from one place to another trying to make ends meet. Mehn…the hustle is real. Ok…. Let’s get down to business, I opened my blog and I was reading old posts and something dropped to my heart…...”It’s time to do a part 2 of this”. So yeah, here you go. We all know that in life one needs to keep PUSHING until you get to your peak. Many people have this misconception about money, wealth and success taking them all to be the same thing.  I am here to debunk that statement, though some people think that success is when you buy a car or a house or even get married, how incredible! While for others it could mean wealth, a position or even acquiring a mansion etc, the list is endless. I do not know what success means to you, but to the best of my understanding success is the status of having achieved and accomplished an aim or objective, being successful means the achievement of desired visions and planned goals, true success is measured by how happy one is, which is why this two words should not be misinterpreted.

According to late coach John Wooden, he defined success as a peace of mind, which is a direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing that one has made an effort to do ones’ best to become the best that one is capable of becoming which requires maximum effort.

To be successful you have to be PASSIONATE about what you do, if you don’t love your work, just know that things would crash land before it even starts. Also, make it a habit of setting goals and when you want them achieved, yea I know I’ve stated this before but I’m repeating it again, BE PASSIONATE!

 Another thing to consider is having a mentor that can guide you and help you actualize your dreams with true sincerity. If you love to write just like me look for a reputable author that can guide you, if  it is cooking, seek around for a pro chef, just be determined and focused about what you what you want to do.

In addition, make sure that your sources are reliable so that your target audience would not question your integrity, be sure of what you put out and make sure it’s of good quality in order to have a good reputation, remember it is only with determination that one can achieve SUCCESS! Till my next post stay blessed.

EMBRACING POSITIVITY

Hello darlings, while sitting in my space and enjoying my time on the internet reading articles and other bloggers page my ears stumbled upon a conversation between two people in my office. Yea I run a day job from 8.am to 5.pm.  It all had to do with what kind of news travels faster, bad news or good news.  I sat down there thinking and imagining it and I realized one thing and that is the fact, that bad news does travel faster. Within me, I began to imagine why that is and why is it that we always wait for our next-door neighbor to make a mistake or fall so that we can carry it to the next person. Why is it that we find it hard to be happy for the person beside us. I have seen many situations like this and I am like "why"? Is it necessary? Is it worth it?  As colleagues in my office were discussing about the success of a 7- day trip which they embarked on, a certain man who didn't go with them was wishing them success and said, "let's thank God for journey mercies and nothing bad happened because I  know that if something happens the whole office will hear about it"? Within me, I was like "chai".

My  dears lets be happy for people around us, lets appreciate ourselves and not forget where we can meet tomorrow life is too short for cheap gossips and bickering, thereby waiting for another man’s' downfall to occur. Please let us put ourselves in other peoples’ situation before jumping into conclusion. Let love and positivity rule your heart, relate with people open-mindedly and avoid backstabbing them. Let us share peace; bad news brings nothing but hurt, heartbreak, hypertension, distrust and so many other vices. That is why our English people want to give an information they would ask “bad news or the good news” and the recipient would reply would reply “the bad news” first because they know the bad news is just a stepping stone to the good news. This world would be a better place if only we can all live in togetherness, like I said earlier life is too short and let’s make the best of it; forgive those who have offended you, let go of that hurtful past and see how changed your life would be, enjoy!
