HAVE YOU EVER IMAGINED YOURSELF WITHOUT A PAYCHECK?

PONDER ON THIS! 🤔 

So I hear lots of employees complain about their job, they say things like; I'm tired of this job, this wasn't what I applied for, my boss is frustrating me, they aren't even paying me well, I'll quit my job, etc... Now, the question is how assured are you on getting another job if you quit the current one? Or will you just seat at home and become a burden to your family and friends? If they give you money this month, do you think they will continue giving you money every month?

My dear, 10,000 naira today without another consistent 10,000 naira monthly is not a good deal. Na better frustration e go amount to in due time oooh. Be wise when taking that drastic decision.

My candid advice; ”Patience is a Virtue” that we all must pray to have. I know it really can be annoying earning little because we've all got bills to pay at the same time meet our personal needs but don't forget this; ”Half Loaf is Better than None”. My ex-boss once taught me something I can never forget in a hurry. He said, if this wasn't the role you applied for, then you've got to ”OWN IT” that's the only way you can give in your best and within a twinkling of an eye you will start loving your job. That word totally changed my mindset and attitude towards work and trust me, I confidently can work anywhere and with any kind of boss, all I need is for you to put me through, I'll Own It and Get The Job Done no matter how much you are willing to offer.

YOUR TAKE HOME: No matter what you are going through in that office, be patient, learn, own it, love your job, stay focused, don't even have the thought that your boss is frustrating you, don't quit and one day it will pay off big time!

NB: No forget say na Naija we dey oooh, nobody send you oooh, you gats send yourself so that e go dey well with you.

May God Help Us all... Can I get an Amen?

OUTGROW PEOPLE WHO DON'T GROW!

”20 Friends Can't 
Walk Together For
20 Years”. You dig right?

A time will come in your life when your oscillation starts rising and you are becoming more conscious of your life, your interest and viewpoint ignites to change. In the metamorphosis of comprehending yourself, you'll see how extensively you're growing and improving as a person. At this point, your internal sensibility starts changing position, in order for your external sensibility to mould itself to fit your new tremor.

So at this stage, your attitude, habits and choices of species around you will not make sense to you anymore. Now, this is not the time to try to start changing people around you or wanting to them grow just like you or trying to make them fit into your new energy. You will only end up hurting yourself because some people derive joy in being stagnant, they don't have the will power to handle change, they are so scared of trying new things. You've got to let them be! It will be really pathetic to limit yourself because of someone else's scepticisms.

Don't force any relationship to work or try to keep lethal friendships that are not profound. Trust me, you don't need it because in the end disappointment will be inevitable. In other words, you've gotta move on, don't let anyone make you feel bad for growth and no longer being accessible, don't reduce your tremor to make others happy.

This is the time to invest in your growth, move with grace into your advancement and accept your transition!

YOUR TAKE HOME: ”IT’S ONLY NATURAL THAT AS YOUR LIFE CHANGE SO WILL YOUR CIRCLE x YOUR DRAMA ENDS THE MOMENT YOU BECOME MATURE”.

TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF!

I was watching a man perform on America's Got Talent, and I realized that the song he sang wasn't amazing by many standards, but the crowd wept and loved every minute of it. Don't get me wrong, he could sing, yes, but nothing unlike what we see on the show. So, why was the crowd so moved?

When he got on stage, he was asked his name and was asked, "tell us about yourself", so he did. That was why. He told the judges how he had spent 34 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit and was only recently released after new forensic technology produced evidence which exonerated him. As he spoke and recounted his ordeal, he cried, the crowd cried, the judges cried.

When he was finally asked to sing, that whole background gave the song more meaning, more depth; it explained more and the song gained richness against the backdrop of his experiences. The crowd loved it, and so did the judges. It wasn't the song in itself, it was his background, his backstory that lent beauty and meaning to his song.

In the last two weeks, I have had the opportunity to interview some people for some roles. Here's my thought: whether you are at a formal interview, or it's just a chat, as executives usually have, there is that point at which you are asked the question, "tell me/us about yourself". It is the moment you sell yourself. That is your opportunity to tell your story, to tell how and why you are best suited for the role. It is your chance to tell your "34-years-in-prison" story that sells you, your skill, experience, and value. A lot of candidates miss this opportunity and tell where their from, children, family, primary school, etc. It is the opportunity that sets the backdrop for the rest of your interview or chat.

Many interviewers make their decision from how well you take advantage of this opportunity. When you are preparing for a chat or interview proper, remember that this is perhaps the most important part of the whole process. So, the next time you hear the words, "tell me/us about yourself", know that you have been given an opportunity to seize the day, and justify why you are there. The floor is yours.

BEST MEDICINE EVER - LAUGHTER!

You really can't give what you don't have. When you spend time with people how do you intend connecting with them when you have a phobia for laughter? Impossicant! 🤣🤣🤣(On a lighter note). Laughter is actually contagious and once you find it difficult to exercise your face with a laugh, connecting with people becomes hard and you will be very close to growing old facially. Laughter brings us closer to each other and as well provides us with a moment of grace. It happens abruptly and spontaneously. When it catches you by surprise, you automatically respond with laughter. Wow, how beautiful that is!

I'm sure you have gained from today's cues. It's your turn, tell us something interesting about yourself, jokes or a fun story in the comments section.

WHAT WOMEN REALLY WANT IN MEN!

It sometimes can be difficult to decipher what a woman really wants in a man. Funny enough, a woman really doesn't want much from a man. Sounds somehow right? But no matter what there are some must-have characteristics women look out for in a man they wish to spend the rest of their lives with.

So on this note, I welcome you to today's edition bagged with seven(7) indispensable things women really want in men. Come along as I open your eyes to them...

BROS, CAN YOU BE TRUSTED?
When you tell a lie, you need more lies to back up every of your point. Did You know? 
When a man is honest and trustworthy, he automatically becomes more alluring and attractive to a woman. Being honest and open are the pillars to building trust in any relationships. A man who's reliable, truthful, genuine, and speaks from the heart without hurting the feelings of a woman, trust me, ”we the ladies association don follow am sharply”(on a lighter note) because people can take him at his word and he's not that man who will mess up a woman's shine. - ”Trust is actually the bedrock of every relationship”

ASSURANCE
So our dear #chefchi wanted an assurance from uncle #davido and uncle showed her the stuff he's made off. I hear many guys sing assurance almost all the time but the question is - how many of them have assurance in themselves? Now, the word ”assurance” is synonymous to ”confidence.” A man who believes in himself knows who he is, and knows what he wants, women like men who are confident in themselves and not incertitude men. A woman wants a man who is comfortable with himself, believe in himself and know his worth. No woman respond to the negative and inauspicious weakness an insecure man is putting out in the world. - ”Confidence is the best outfit you can ever wear.” Wear it!

BE COMPASSIONATE
When the Holy book made mention of women being the weaker vessel, hello, it wasn't a joke. Women are soft and seriously needs a man that is compassionate, empathetic, and loyal. They actually want a man they can open up to, whether it's a bad day or their deepest hopes and fears. When you are empathetic it simply shows you're able to comprehend another person's point of view and can as well comfort them when they are in pain. 
Show me a man who has the ability to love and show the love he claims in all his actions and I will show you a man who is compassionate, empathetic and loyal. Women pick interest in men who have the capacity to show care and concern for others. - ”Be that man.”

HEY, DID YOU JUST SAY SOMETHING? SAY IT AGAIN!
Women are moved by what they hear, yes oooh. Wanna get her attention at any given time? Then subscribe to telling her something that will sweep her off her feet. Women like to be told they look good, and they like a man who knows without being told. For instance, when she's wearing a sexy new dress, she'll give you coded signal for you to say how hot she looks, if she's looking extremely glamorous, she made a new hair - let it all out by telling her. - ”She needs to hear it. Tell her!”

BE RESPECTFUL
This is where most men are really having issues. If a woman by chance disrespects you in one way or the other you asked for it. ”Respect is reciprocal.” In order to maintain a healthful, comfortable, and profitable relationship, then both parties have to behave toward each other with respect. FYI, women are very creative, and have the ability to create beautiful things and as well inspire. They can come up with grand ideas and execute them. They also know how to make men happy. They know their importance and expects the same from you. 
So if a woman notices she's been taken for granted or treated sloppily by a man, she'll be left with the option of plunging him so as not to be heartbroken. But when you give her her due respect, appreciate, and show her she means the world to you. You'll see how happy your relationship will be. - ”A woman will only be attracted to a man who gives her the respect she rightfully deserves.

EMOTIONAL EXTANT
Are you that kinda bro that likes to operate your phone while she's with you? Or you are always engrossed with office stuff? Bros, there's time for everything. Focus on her when she's with you and focus on your work when you are in the office. Shikina! Women don't like men who get distracted whenever they are together. Both partners should be emotionally present. Women take delight in a man who is emotionally credible and straightforward rather than a man who is abridged and emotionally inaccessible. Don't be scared to be vulnerable, emotional, and compassionate if you want to build a lasting relationship. - ”Women crave a man who isn't afraid to express their true feelings.”

GREAT SENSE OF HUMOUR
Laughter is one of the strongest innate aphrodisiacs. Are You Aware? You don't necessarily need to be a standup jester before you can capture a woman's attention, but having the ability to chill, joke around, and a good sense of humour is highly alluring. A man who oozes a cheerful, lighthearted, and positive vibes into the world will earn a woman want to be around him. Learn to always crack her ribs, but be smart enough not to joke with sensitive things like her family, dress sense, or hairstyle. - ”Don't be too serious, kindly loosen up.”

Do you now see that your look or the type of car you drive doesn't matter? What matters is how you make her feel around you.
