Stop Running the Excuse Tap From the poem  the delima of new year  by easy words, one would be drawn to the very common challenge people are faced with at the turn of the year. I will not shy away from the truth. I will own up and say I am also a sufferer of this yearly epidemic of some sorts. It is something that we must be ready to deal with if we want to actually reach our peak. It is very common for people to set new goals and new year resolutions for what they hope to achieve or change or acquire or expunge or implement in the new year... Some people go "new year, new me!" Some others say " new year, new look, new job, no procrastination, no laziness, no this no that" .. The list of what people will do or not do in a new year is endless. This is 2019 though, have you started on anything yet? Check the date again, it day four already mate! The main reason why people will not change much at the coming of December 31, 2019 is EXCUSES . A lot of us have a gushing t...

The Delima of New Year  By easy words. ccpixabay It's a new year!  The vibe is new The ideas are fresh  The hope renewed and faith refined  Yet,  the old habits die hard  And whilst I pander to the gallery in the splendor of my foolish strength  Boasting what I will achieve,  My old foes watch me in bewildered humour  Watching my uncultured energy peter out  Then they knock me out and I slump back to type! I sleep another year long sleep  Only to awake when my time has gone away  I use the little time I have left  To plan again what I might not achieve  Not because I don't want to or don't know how,  But because I don't want to and don't know how! 

Another season is here again to celebrate the bravery and contorted defiance of a certain St Valentinus. Looking deep and reviewing the acts of the man, one thing sticks; he was an embodiment of what love is; that is reaching out, giving hope and providing support. His eventual execution is in essence a replica of what the world does with genuine love or how genuine love is regarded. It is in truth, treated high handedly and those that offer it are mostly at the end of the brunt. Case in point, even Jesus Christ himself was never genuinely loved. Okay, we are celebrating Valentine's Day and for those of us that are all fired up for a fun filled day of activities with whoever, we may wager at my seeming muttering of genuine love. Yes! We all await this peculiar day earnestly, fantasizing about the gifts, the texts, the places to be visited, the snacks, views and all the fun to be had. This of course, would be the genuine thinking of the somewhat innocent, who just see this day as a...

cc pixabay Value is a very ambiguous word. As a matter of fact, its ambiguity is closely associated with its relativity. From this concept, we begin to look at a form of dichotomy between the IDEAL and the REALITY. Looking deeper though, in the complexity of their differences, one could still string up a relationship between them. Cutting to the chase now, it is your definition of your values that paints up your ideal world which you try to emphasize in the real world through your decisions. Values definition or identification marauds around your belief system. Your assessment of what is good or evil; right or wrong. It is quite a cumbersome cognitive relativity that could paint the world in different colours. At this level as youngies, it is aptly relevant to your Self Discovery. Decision making is an everyday task which requires a higher level of evaluation rather than just knowledge. Life throws questions perpetually and you need to provide answers asap because the time fac...

cc.pixabay   Being a teenager is one of the greatest feelings in the world! You as an individual, arrive at this period of your life with a lot of energy to burn; ideas to implement; curiosity to satisfy; opinions to express; adventures to undertake and; an overload of expectations for the not too distant future. It is a period in time when you tend to feel in control of your own world, mapping out strategies, developing your character,building your self esteem and getting ready for your future. However, it is also a vital period to think, pay great attention and to try to make the right decisions. Do not forget that the most important time in your life is TODAY . It fizzles into yesterday and transcends to tomorrow or future! The most important decision is the one made today; it would either lead to regrets or fulfillment. One of my favourite quotes from EasyWords says " You cannot focus on yesterday or think too much about the future because you cannot influence the...
