STAND FOR SOMETHING

There is a popular saying "If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything". Some times we ask someone where do you stand on that issue, and he is like "they have said it all, it is okay like that". Whereas in his mind he thinks so and so, obviously different from what the final conclusion was, leaving him in a situation of inconsistency. What actually stopped him from expressing his mind as well? If you really stand for what you think you stand for you shouldn't be afraid to say it, and you should be able to do the following:

  • SPEAK FOR WHAT YOU STAND FOR: Never should you keep quiet about what you stand for because you lack courage to speak out about it. Many people tend to wait cautiously to see if it is safe before they say their views on issues, why should this be so? If you are standing for what is right and what will be  beneficial to everyone around then you shouldn't think twice before you speak for it, ofcourse, there will be plenty of opponents but if you but if you know what you are saying and you enlighten them on the benefits some of them might come in terms with your idea.
  • STRIVE FOR WHAT YOU STAND FOR: Even after speaking out for what you stand for, you shouldn't stop there, you should also earnestly and energetically strive for its acceptance and accomplishment. Something that is right can never be established without conflict, because everyone can not agree unanimously to an idea. But if you believe in what you stand for you will fight for it.
  • SUFFER FOR WHAT YOU STAND FOR: Fear of causing offence, being misunderstood or spoken against will not deter you when deep down in your heart you stand for something right and worthwhile. If you are not willing to suffer personal ease, time, friendship, reputation, money and even your job at worst for what you stand for then you are only fooling yourself by thinking you stand for it.
Stand for something today and let people know you for what you actually stand for but make it a positive standing oooo. Happy Sunday and have a wonderful week ahead. Don't forget that Olamide loves you.

LET GO OF THE PAST

Have you ever had any experience that made you ask questions like "why me?", "why is this happening to me now?", "why am I going through pains as severe as this?" etc. Well this is life and things don't go according to our plans or desires, and when something negative happens, we are moved, shattered, upset and sometimes even resentful to a point of pain and suffering. It surprises me that some people hold on to a handful of negative experiences and bad memories from the past when there is so much to appreciate and be thankful for, I am also guilty of this ooo . You have to let go in other not to allow it haunt you or limit you from achieving your desired goals. We've all been hurt one way or the other, everyone as long as you are a teen or an adult has experienced some kind of emotional pain in our lives but you shouldn't sit and ruminate endlessly about the past which you can not change.

HARSH REALITIES OF LIFE

Somebody said "Life is Strange". I said "Life is full of ups and downs, nothing is ever straight or easy to come by in this life. That is why everyone is struggling to have a better life for himself at least". somebody said "Many get lost in the struggle of life, Many lose their lives in the process, many sell their souls to make it and only few overcome the harsh realities of life and become victorious at the end". I said "We just need to trend softly in the journey of life, take each day as it comes, prepare for any uncertainties and hope to be one of the few that will overcome life and be victors". That was the conversation between someone and I, when I saw this picture on his Display Picture. It is true that we sit down, make plans, wonderful plans and imagine how we will go about the plans. sincerely no one can tell me that when he is making out plans he also added some rough plans or hard situations he wants to encounter in the process

MY FUTURE

So I sit to ponder on what the future holds for me even after rounding up my Degree Program. I sit to imagine what the next step will be. I sit to think of where am coming from, where I am and where am heading to. I sit to think of what determines my future, and I realized that; My past doesn't determine my future. My background doesn't determine my future. My academic achievements doesn't determine my future. My friends neither the company I keep determines my future. My social life doesn't determine my future. Situations that arises both in the past , and present doesn't determine my future My worldly possessions and achievements doesn't determine my future. My beauty nor brain does not determine my future. Fame and wealth does not and will never determine my future. What people say or what will people say does not determine my future.   So then I thought, what really determines my future? And then I realized that; My future is determined by th
