Dreams (1)

Ed. Note
Dreams will only remain in the confines of the mind except if made a reality.

I guess the saddest loss for any man would be for his dreams to never take off������.
For just as planes were built to live in the skies, so was man born to live out his dreams. So much that you can't possibly get it wrong with the right dream in the right direction������

On your way to the top, you're probably gonna fall������ a couple of times or more, but the reality remains, no one will be counting except you1⃣2⃣3⃣.

Indeed, i guess i can say that you are the greatest enemy of yourself������, and until you win over yourself, there would be less that you can accomplish.

Therefore, there's a need for you to liberate your mind from what it had been wired around - in which case failure it could be failure������- and embrace the chances of maximising opportunities regardless of the obstacles.
Give yourself to learning a new thing per time, whereby you create a new pathway in your mind and have your belief-system structured around it, until you fully gain the power ������������ to bring the ideas birthed into fruition.

Until I see you again, Conquer your fear, Conquer your world. ��������

Cheers

Happily Ever After

A friend once asked when it could be said that one is either happy or sad, and in response I had this to say.
________________________________________________________

Happiness ������ isn't a thing that happens down the road, or a mood that comes once in a while. It is an active sense of feeling������, borne out of the in-depth knowledge of self. You're either happy or you're not������, there's no in-betweens.

When a large part of your emotions is spent waiting �� for the occurrence of an event to propel you into the realm of pure bliss, then you might have just lost ������the meaning of happiness and true rest.
At this point, it could be said that you aren't living maximally������, and what you have termed happiness could be likened to a boss, who's never satisfied and would always have so many more tasks to 'dish-out' in order for you to grow wit to execute just another one -a tail of an insatiable desire������.

Happiness is discovering who you are, it is finding your heart, loving yourself, expressing the joy garnered inside-out, and offering the same measure of gifts acquired unto others, regardless of who deserves what or not ������

By so doing, you'd have gained mastery over your mind and obtained pure happiness������.

Therefore, regardless of your thought-pattern or belief, make a decision to not wait for anyone or events before you choose to be happy����������.

...then and only then can you live happily ever after...

Mar-ri-ness

Mar-ri-ness

The fact that I write about marriage does not mean I have had a first-hand experience of the union in anyway. Instead, it is as a result of several observations made from the little world that revolves around me -from my parent's, to my sibling's, colleagues', and through the knowledge amassed from various authors of best selling books. Not forgetting seminars and endless discussions with friends and mentors across board.

Though the understanding of marriage varies in proportion to varying cultural practices, believes and philosophies, It is still principally an institution of interpersonal relationship between similar entities. It is believed that before such huge step is considered, some level of understanding must have been  established successfully, without any of the two parties involved expressing discomfort or dissatisfaction.

The reason "why one marries is as important as who to marry and the happiness of such person thereafter".
For true happiness is too-often-than-none, dependent on what choices you make and who you make such choices with.
Happiness, love, insurance, and hope, does not come from the outside or by chance, but by a conscious effort to provoke such experience in one's life. One of my mentors once said "when you are consciously 'grateful' for a cause, it will never go wrong. Instead it will be replicated and spread across board" ~ Poju Oyemade.

I am hit with mixed feelings each time I consider the level of moral decadence in our present day society, and I cannot help but fear what the future holds for us all if this persists.
One of my greatest fear is to live in discomfort and dissatisfied for the rest of my life, and since divorce is not an option, and living in what one would call a-hell-of-a-relationship isn't either, I find it paramount to be responsible for every decision I would ever make. Otherwise, the destruction of mind and character would be inevitable.

Success in marriage -just as in every other aspect of life- is not a function of how hard you try, but how smart you work. It lies in every decision you make, and in the choices that you can hardly ever take back.

God's vision for man is that we have life -and that- more abundantly, to subdue the earth and multiply exceedingly. As interesting as it might sound, it will never be achievable if one of the recognizable source of good life -even for the next generation- is dysfunctional and eventually defeated.

Albeit life could be challenging, with the right approach it is most definitely good.
Make the right choices, stand on it, and see it germinate.

Remember, life is everything and your perception. Man can only be limited in understanding by what he dims fit.
Choose right, live right.
