Plant Lesson


I have been so thrilled, about how the things around us, especially nature gives us tips on how to live.


As to the rules that was given in my home,


I am to sweep the front side of the house, and as a patriotic citizen of my home, each time I sweep,


I would always look up to the mango and the soursop tree, and kind of like ask them, "why are you given problem with your leaves poop.🙄


Like overtime I sweep, it is certain that I would sweep litters of leaves.


Then it occurred to me this morning that plants shed leaves, and as time goes on they come up with amazing green ones, and like I try connecting it to our individual life,


most time it looks like we're losing everything, it looks like everything thing is drying up, but like trees, losing their leaves every single years, yet they stand tall waiting for better days to come, we can also carry out that.


Disclaimer, I am not saying you should fold up your hands and be wishing for "the better days to come", No!.


Note that the trees while waiting, was doing some underground work, taping nutrients, doing all it could to build resistance against the soil acidity.


I urge you to keep working, keep working more , keep feeding yourself with the positive nutrients, develop yourself and be Patient "enough".


I believe when the rain fall and the sun shines fall your path you'll catch your break.

Linch Pin To Being Lucky

Some months back, I was privileged to be at a book club hangout. As I remembered that day, I made effort to jar my memory about everything that happened on that day. Amongst the things I remember was, been called upon to make an introduction about myself. After saying my name and all of that, the anchor, whose energy level I dearly admire asked me a question. The question she asked was, "do you believe in luck?" With a long pause, I thought hmmm! Why did I get that kind of question? I mean–every other person's were been asked about their hobby and this is what I got! Well, this is a tough one, who doesn't pray to be lucky?! I can't really recall everything I said, but I recalled saying something like, "luck is not as important as preparation"; I went ahead making instances to justify my claim. When I looked back at what I said that day, I realized that, I tend to still agree with it, because when you are lucky–apart from winning a lottery–it could only m...

  Rather than seeing fast growth as a goal, see it as an adjustable variable; that's even if you're in for the infinite game. This entails that you strategically slow the rate of your growth, by extending your tentacles as a means to acquire enough skill and training that would help you move head long in the midst of added pressure, because there's going to have a lot of them as you journey along in your endeavors. What make an endeavor "successful" is not in that endeavor itself, it is the individuals who are behind that endeavor that determine how successful it would be. ~PCI

How decisions shape who we become

Image
Have you ever been in a situation where you are having a back and forth talk with someone–as to what should be done– and all they keep saying is, " I have made up my mind; this is my decision!" Have you? Oftentimes, decisions are as a result of a convictions or evidences we have, based on the matter at hand; sometimes, it could just be because of the outcome or objective that we have at the back of our mind. Making or taking decisions can most times be dicey...because there's no  difference between that and responding to something. It's quite the same! Your decision determines your response. To put this in a better perspective,  your decisions are pre-determinant of your reactions; every response you once gave is due to decision you've once made, be it private or publicly.  However, in most cases, your decisions will not be consistent with life happenings, therefore, be careful of what decisions you are making, because  decisions are powerful, once you made them t...
