You Are As A Result Of Your Surrounding.

You Are As A Result Of Your Surrounding.

Do you know you are who you are because of the people you surround yourself with? If people around you are full of negative vibes, the energy gets to you and before you know it you are one of them.

Choose wisely who you hang out with as they can either make or break you. The choice is yours.

Friends, partners, work colleagues, neighbors and family members play important roles in our daily lives. We interact with these set of people every day and their actions and vibes does reflect on how we live our lives.

There is an old proverb among the Yoruba clan that says "If a leaf wrapped a soap long enough it becomes interwoven into the soap".

Don't be part of somebody else's life, be in control of who you are and define your person.

Surround yourself with the same set of people you are on the same mission with. A leopard doesn't roll with a mouse.

Not too late to re-evaluate and re-assess your immediate circle. I did and I'm happier than I was.

The Story Of Two Friends – Ade & Emeka And Their Quest For Success.

The Story Of Two Friends – Ade & Emeka And Their Quest For Success. Both Ade and Emeka were born in the digital age i.e. in the 90’s! Those who were born before this period had to go extra miles in achieving their aims in life, access to data and information were very limited and technology wasn’t advanced enough to aid individual desires – that is not the same for the 90’s kids. They both attended same high school and were neighbours in Rukuba Barracks in Jos where their fathers are stationed as soldiers serving the nation. Emeka’s father was transferred over to Jos from Enugu and Ade’s father was transferred to Jos from Lagos, the boys were very young when they had to move to Jos with their parents. It was so quick and easy for them to form friendship; they are not just neighbours but newbies and non-locals in the barrack where majority of the soldiers are local men from Lanagtang, Wase, Jos, Pankshin, Barkin Ladi, Shendam, Mangu etc. within the state. As they ...

Prayer + Action = Success

Prayer without action is powerless and a road leading nowhere but ruins. I am not a religious person but I am a believer, not many people can tell the difference. I have nothing against religion; however, there must be a defined line between being religious and being stupid. Prayers do get answered, I know as I am a living testimony. When you start leaving everything to God to handle while you sit on your bum then that's pure laziness. Sleeping in the church or mosque doesn't make you a righteous person neither does that guarantee you a front seat in heaven. There are no 99 virgins for anyone that blow him or herself up on earth - common sense; you can't find a virgin in your village how much more in the city and now heaven? You can't even ask girls out! It's no rocket science! Any religion that preaches killing another man is not a religion; if yours do then you need a new religion if necessary. You don't have to be in a Church or Mosque fo...
