The Perfect Start To An Average Day

Good morning guys!!! okay so this is my first ever post on this blog, I'm really eager to post something this morning so I have decided to share with you, a random thought that popped into my head while I was still lazying in bed. Ever wondered how you could be the director of your own day? I mean being able to maintain  a perfect handle on everything you do in a day, from the moment you wake up till you go to bed. I'm sure if we all had our way, we'd have a whole lot of things happen differently during the course of the day. Well here's my take! I think it all boils down to the precedence you set for yourself as soon as you wake up. Your reaction to the first 15 minutes of your day dictates to a large extent, how you're going to handle the rest of it. It's amazing how much control you could have simply by thinking, acting and speaking POSITIVELY. Wake up in the morning and tell yourself that your day is perfect and from that moment, all you have to worry about is coming up with more positive thoughts to guide you through the day. I know it all sounds like bullsh*t at first but it's definitely worth a try. As you go out today, try to convince yourself that your day isn't as stressful or as hectic as you think. see the positive angle to all of it and you'll accomplish you tasks with further more ease. Look at me for instance; All night I was thinking of the perfect write up for my first post but with a lot less stress and a great deal of positive thinking, I've achieved my goal. so do what you have to... play that song that you can't get enough of and sing to it, say a prayer of gratitude, roll up a blunt, whatever it takes... Get yourself in the best possible mood and bulldoze right through the next 24 hours... I know I am. :)
Thank you for reading!

Freedom of Choice

I was just on Twitter minding my own business and airing my views on a recently trending topic. Yes, you guessed right - the 'Transfiguration' of Bruce Jenner. I said that it is a disgrace to men and women alike. I also said that his action after more than 5 decades of being alive, is a perfect example of what emasculation can result to. I stand by my words because I believe that what he did is unnatural.  Some people disagree. They are of the opinion that there is nothing unnatural about a sex change. Someone even went as far as to compare the situation to barrenness. All I can say is that barrenness like many natural defects is something that should be solved because it is natural to procreate. Barrenness is a a challenge that causes families sadness and disappointment. A sex change is a whole other thing. It is a person being u satisfied with the way they are born and taking the matter into their surgeon's hand so that they can wear a bra instead of boxers or boxers inst...

Thoughts on a downward spiral

A very strange thought has just popped into my mind. Imagine the deplorable state of the education system in our country. The primary schools are a shadow of what they were as recently as the year 2000 when I was a pupil, the standard of teaching and the performance of students in secondary schools continues to plummet and is at an all time low, Universities in the country are no where near what qualifies as tertiary institutions, yet and this is the strange part; it is not the worst part of the situation. For every 3000 half-baked graduates out of a Nigerian university every year, there are about 7000 more who are struggling to get in. As a matter of fact, only a mere 30% of Nigerian youths are even fortunate enough to stand a chance of being a part of this decaying system. The rest are unable to get basic education let alone, go to the university. That is a whopping 70% of young men and women who cannot read, write or even afford three square meals. That is seven in every ten people ...

Sabali!!

The most rampant phenomenon in this fast paced world we live in today, is the absolute lack of patience in most people. It is in everything, some of us are too impatient for traffic so we drive way too fast, we are too impatient to eat healthy so we prefer instant noodles, we are heading to the future so damn fast, we don't care what composites our present. I am a typical example of this madness but lately, I have been learning about patience. It is a wonderful feeling to not be in a hurry, the problem is that we have somehow managed to convince ourselves that the only way to be successful or happy is by doing it first! It is a scam. Life teaches us, along with time that a true sense of fulfilment does not depend on the when but the what and the how well. As a victim of the Nigerian tertiary education system, I know firsthand what it feels like to not be in control of one's own progress at a certain time in life. I spent the greater part of the last two years at home because of...
