The Unique You

In the past days, weeks and month, I have been fighting with so many things like managing my time and being productive. Yet there is a lot on mind that I want to do, amazing ideas keeps popping in my mind, big dreams all in my head. I knew I really want to do it, my intention is to do it, my spirit is willing but I did not take any action. WHY? Like why do we have things bottled up in our minds and abandon them at the stage of “Intent”. Just like my friend David told me about a lovely idea he had and I exclaimed! What is stopping you, just start, do it, it is really amazing. Well he gave me reasons why he couldn’t start, reasons like; I need a team, I need to learn more about it and so on. I agreed with him then. But now, I am so sorry to disagree with you David. Those excuses are not valid reasons, which fall back to my question earlier. Our spirit and mind is ready and willing to do something but we do not take actions, WHY? I consider most of us get ourselves on one end ...

Life takes place, and it can happen fast. Sometimes we don’t take the time to stop and look around at what is happening to us at each moment. We don’t get to see the step-by-step progress that we are making in our own lives. So, what happens? Gbam! the future comes, and you have no track or idea of how you have gotten there, successful or not. One quick question: How can penning things down help improve your life? Or does it help clear your thoughts when you are upset?  Will penning things down help you determine whether or not you are on your right career path? Will it help you check if you are reaching towards your goal or not? Provide an answer… Writing is an important part of life, whether in the workplace or school, as an hobby or in personal communication, everyone is a writer.  Here is the truth: your effectiveness in life is not what you could be missing out. Each day passes by and you have nothing to prove that it even happened. Did you achieve som...

So many people say being a student is the sweetest part of life. I can say those people are those that had memorable moments with steady income. Not like i didn't have memorable moments, in fact i had the best time in school involving myself in several activities, but struggling was my middle name. I could be categorized as a poor student, not academically but financially. Luxury was a distant land far from my struggling land. Affording provisions was tougher than getting an A in my professor's course, and trying to form like some other 'big girls' couldn't be an option. I am too real to be fake. Sometimes, my mom would call, with her sweet, calm yet defining voice, assuring me of the love she has for me, telling me how much she cares for me, and how she is working hard towards meeting my needs. Other times I get calls from friends who always make me feel not forgotten and so many times I chat with special friends who makes me feel special. All of these pe...

Change is the only CONSTANT. It is inevitable.  Few days ago I posted this word   CHANGECOSIS on my Instagram page @_expressit and I challenged my followers to find the meaning of the word, but  I almost forgot we are the Google generation (Lol)  so I got answers powered by Google (lol).                       Moreover, my sister, Ifedolapo Ajakaiye(Mrs) inspired this piece, she sent me the word, I thought it was one of those medical terms they use as medical practitioners , but no it is not.  According to her; "After a long period of study on unhealthy conditions and why it threatens life ; I came across a disease that threatens one's ability to enjoy life and develop one's full potential - CHANGECOSIS  ". Yes!   it is a disease. It is wise to avoid this disease, a threat to happy living and growth , better still run from it.  This Changecosis is an unheal...

The future starts today not tomorrow .  Snap! snap! snap!  What is today's date already?  WOW!  In a blink the whole new year excitement is all gone. Welcome to reality. The year is flying, it does not care if you were not ready or unable to catch up. Are you feeling like you have not been working as planned?  Oops too early for that.  I wrote this piece during an interview and i wrote it because it is a common issue. I realized, there is no way forward with this attitude(I was a victim). Here; We all love the word Tomorrow, we be like ; maybe tomorrow, it's okay tomorrow, tomorrow I will, tomorrow I will fix it, tomorrow is better, tomorrow!  tomorrow!  tomorrow! We end up not doing Shit! It can be really tricky ... TOMORROW ~ A mystical land, where 99% of human productivity, motivation, creativity and achievement is stored. Is it not funny how we postpone everything and never return to them? Sometimes piling up daily duti...

Happy new year lovelies, I wish you all an amazing time of celebration and a fruitful year ahead. I can feel the excitement in the air . I  really appreciate you all for following my blog , your support, corrections, encouragement and prayers means a lot to me. God bless you greatly.     Day 1 of 365 days , the year has started, waiting for no one to be ready , let me share this with you; It is about THE PREPARATION PROCESS. Everyone goes through a preparation process, but how we go through it differs. Last year has either been good or bad, just there or really amazing,whatever it is, you are in your preparation process. Each time I see someone grumble or panic and worry (just like me those times.. Lol), I try my best to talk them out of it, and help them see the bigger picture and great things ahead of them. Moreover, this is the period that everyone makes new plans, set new agenda, strategize for the next move and all, but then while making all this plans, ...

In a gathering, the topic of discussion was about how women / Ladies nowadays all over the world, throw away who they really are and just want to keep up with the social trends, lifestyle and be noticed.  An elderly man asked , "can we find Nigerian women /Ladies that still stands out and hold on to our values and culture, women /Ladies that are not shying away from who they really are has Nigerians" ? I had to contribute to the discussion...... Nigeria is an amazing country that is distinctly unique. Talking about women/Ladies , it is quite different when it has do with Nigeria. They are beautiful, now I am referring to both inside traits and outside looks,  Nigerian women /Ladies has it all. Despite the craze, trends, lifestyle and all things going on in the world right now, we still have Nigerian women who are still focused, standing and not intimidated by whatsoever. Women /Ladies around the world cannot be compared to Nigerians. Nigerian women /Ladies alwa...
