The Big 27

Image
It's been a journey full of discoveries. Sojourned in search of what I never seem to find. Hopes so high and values constantly threatened with unexpected events, but repeatedly I rise above the odds.  My path clearly defined by mental pictures of success carefully put together quite early in life. The vivid pictures seared deep in my mind and too bold to let mediocrity get in the way. Crossing over to the new year which has been so longed for, I stand tall taking pride in the not so big accomplishments under my belt. I eagerly look forward to seeing the amazing achievements the new year brings. Happy birthday to me... #TheBig27

JUST DO IT ! ! !

Waiting for that billion dollar idea to hit you? It may never hit you cause you may already have had that idea but you devalued it and considered it not worthy enough to give you that big break. Let me go further to explain with a scenario. I conceived TAK (The Assistants by Kender) two years ago and late last year I decided to take action and start off an online service. (Creating written contents and Copy editing/proofreading)  The original idea was (and is still) a publishing house, however as the funds and other means were not in place yet I decided to start off online first. Fast forward into six days ago when I got an inspiration to expand my reach and send out proposals to media houses, newspapers and Blogs about my service. The idea was really great and I couldn't wait for the weekend to come so I could work on a really great proposal.  Now I'm seated here and really thinking if I should go ahead and work on the proposal or not. Mixed feelings came and I st

STRIPPED...........FEAR

It came up to me in quite a deceptive manner. When the apartments of my frail heart was occupied with none other than hope for the future. It walked in as a companion to push me to greater heights. How that push actually pushed me into a cocoon.  Then came betrayals in one's self, denials, failed efforts and most importantly anxiety.  Early night tuck ins turned to late nights filled with trying to figure out life and after that gruesome exercise, that old cold pressing fear takes over and cancels out the efforts and the work put in.  I lived with fear and over time it degenerated to constant anxiety. Scared to the bones about what the future holds and even how to start out. I doubted my competence for such a long time. My waste bin constantly filled with piles of scraped wriggled papers from articles written that never made its purpose was a good reminder of how I failed myself. I searched for what could set me free and put me on a pedestal to soar higher. Love brought

FEAR...... If we would be honest, a lot of us are trapped in the facade created by this horrible mental illusions. #Anticipate....

Woke up at 2:45am this thursday morning and finished a bowl of cornflakes with my sleepy eyes. Now i'm considering if I should go back to bed or just wait till 4am which is when my alarm usually wakes me up. Typing with your eyes half closed is fun too. I feel like a pro using a typewritter and pushing down those buttons and enjoying it make that sound. You may be wondering whats the aim of this post. I'm wondering so too. I'm kinda racking my brain to find some exotic words to throw in just so this post doesn't end with my being a midnight foodie. Well maybe I figured out a moral to the story. Wake up any time you are hungry and eat. You know why? Just because you have to live a little and sometimes break that rule that says you have to wake up at 6am before you can have your breakfast. I'm definitely going back to bed cause sleep still conveniently wants to make me late for work.

MUCH ADO ABOUT YOUR 20s

Dear ''twenty something'' year old buddy, How has life been since you clocked 20? Just the other day I was ecstatic about 23 and I was just about to finish serving (Nation Youth Service Corps). I had a lot of things I hoped to do, but then, I had one problem: I didn't have a CV (curriculum vitae). I didn't know how to go about the job searching thing and I was pretty worried about that.  The next year after service, I was working and surviving miraculously. The months I stayed up late at night trying to figure out my path and feeling so pressured about not having a job were just behind me. I was so pressured you know. None of my friends ever came home after Service. They all found jobs but I was home and feeling miserable.  However, it was in that time I decided to Horne my writing skills and start a blog. It was still that time I started off my editing career on a low key which landed me my second job. This little recap
