Ten Tips on Essential Living

1. Live a life true to yourself: 
Many people regret not living the life they truly wanted, often due to societal expectations or pressure from others. 
Make choices that align with your values and desires, even if they challenge the norm.

2. Don't work too hard: 
Striking a healthy work-life balance is crucial. 
Many people on their deathbed wish they hadn't spent so much time working, as it often comes at the expense of personal relationships and experiences.

3. Express your feelings:
Regret can arise from not sharing one's true emotions. 
Speak your mind and express your feelings to those who matter most, as it can help strengthen relationships and minimize misunderstandings.
4. Stay connected with friends: 
As life gets busier, friendships can easily be neglected. 
Make an effort to maintain close connections with friends, as they can provide support, joy, and a sense of belonging throughout life.
5. Allow yourself to be happy: 
Many people regret not prioritizing their own happiness. 
Give yourself permission to let go of past grievances, enjoy the present moment, and actively pursue a fulfilling life.
6. Pursue your passions: 
Regrets often stem from not following one's dreams or passions. 
Take risks, explore your interests, and invest in the pursuits that bring you joy and a sense of purpose
7. Show gratitude and appreciation: 
Expressing gratitude for the people and experiences in your life can lead to a greater sense of contentment. 
Don't wait until it's too late to show your appreciation
8. Be present in the lives of loved ones: 
Make time for family and friends, and be present during important events and milestones. 
Cherish the moments and memories you create with them.
9. Don't sweat the small stuff: 
Worrying about trivial matters can detract from the important aspects of life. 
Focus on what truly matters, and let go of unnecessary stress and concerns.
10. Be kind and forgiving: 
Regrets often arise from not being kind or forgiving enough. 
Practice compassion and forgiveness towards both yourself and others, as it can lead to a more fulfilling life

A Challenge to The African Leaders (Nigeria's Example)

"Be a gift to everyone who enters your life, and to everyone who’s your life you enter. Be careful not to enter another's if you cannot always be gift (you can always be a gift, because you always are the gift-yet sometimes you do not let yourself know that)" . This quote was culled from the Conversation with God: Uncommon Dialogue. Volume 2 by Weale Donald Walsch ! The life we found ourselves in is a gift, we are a gift, I am a gift and your belief is what can make you a gift if you allow your faith to manifest! Since I discovered myself to be a gift to the world, I have been threading the path of positivism always! From the spirit of given wholeheartedly to the process of helping the helpless in whatever capacity I can! This process leads to why I will always be wondering why African leaders accumulating the wealth meant the entire populace for their personal use. There are times I think the gauntlet of truth must be unveil, alas there is no resources that star...

"WHEN A LOSS IS A VICTORY" - By Dr. Wladimir Klitchsko

At the end of April I competed against Anthony Joshua , and thereby took on the greatest of all challenges: In front of 90,000 spectators in a sold-out Wembley Stadium in London – as well as a TV audience of millions in more than 150 countries – I fought the fight of my life against the 28-year-old Englishman. I competed to conquer the best of the best. Sadly, I failed to achieve my goal. The outcome was that my opponent won the fight. But despite this, and however absurd it may sound, I also left the ring victorious. In the run-up, I was 100 percent certain that I would win the duel. I had prepared as well as I could and felt I was in the best form of my life; winning back the title of World Champion was my obsession. I gave it everything during the fight. I managed to get up several times after being knocked down. I was even able to send my opponent to the canvas. But, in the end, it was Anthony Joshua who struck the decisive blow and left the ring victorious. I failed to ...

Shujaa Ernest Graham- A Rare Gem!

By profiling a man like Shujaa Graham; I am just wondering where can we find a matching example here in Nigeria? What we are witnessing today, are just self-serving leaders, who are hellbent on trampling the common man's rights without blinking! We wakes up to lots of empty promises and all they preach is patience! Chief Obafemi Awolowo, of blessed memory spoke about the decay of public affairs, a year after independence! What was the reaction? It is rhetorical when many unanswerable questions are what we could tenders to the incoming generations! Say No To Injustice! Say No To Racial Segregation!! Together we can make the world a better place to live in!!! Happy reading! A man who has shown by example that you can stand up for what you believe, and be victorious if you stand up for what you believe. Shujaa Graham was born in Lake Providence, LA, where he grew up on a plantation. His family worked as share-croppers, in the segregated South of the 50s. In 1961, he ...
