Time to say GOODBYE MARCH 2015

 



Monday morning 09:58am I went to see someone in her office.
Getting there, I was told she just stepped out. I can’t afford the stress of going and coming back later so I decided to wait for her since I needed her for some sort of assistance.
The secretary directed me to waiting room; in the room are two settees, a TV, display of awards and testimonials on the shelf. Piles of books and newspapers neatly arranged.
As I sat alone not knowing how long I have to wait, I decided to keep myself   company with a newspaper.
I grabbed one and found out it was January 2015,I made to drop it but again I need company in the quiet room.
So I decided to flip through, maybe I would see something of interest.
That was when my eyes caught the inspiring story of Mrs. Anthonia Hafunjoh Okoye.
A 43 years old woman with a husband, 5 young kids and a fashion business to cater for that made a first class and also graduated as the best graduating student.
Two things got me in her story, her first attempt ended in frustration.
Did she give up???
NO!!!
She still longed to fulfill her dream. That is determination!!
Lesson: Never give up on your dream no matter the challenges.
Second lesson, the support of her husband.
Dreams come true when you have your supportive supportsystem!!!
I was enjoying the read when the person I was waiting for came in so I had to drop the newspaper and focus on why I came for the meeting.
The story so got me that I left the office I googled her name.
Heheee…. everything is now google
You can read for yourself here
Hope you’re inspired to make the most out of life as you say goodbye to March 2015.
Stay connected and best of wishes.

    True talk @ Chizoba. I will always love the=is saying "Dreams is not what you see in your sleep, Dream is that which does not let you sleep" Keep at it and one day even the people which never supported you will want to be your ally.

Hard work vs. 'Smart' work

Image
Counting down to the end of January. It’s been an awesome one month ride!! Fresh start , getting it right, character development , identifying talents and learning skills. This is the last week of January but not the last of me. One important character of winners is persistence, they keep pressing, no quitting till they hit the mark. Hard work is persistence; it’s hard to beat a person who never gives up. I will keep, keeping on, no dulling, I can do all things. I will work smart too, meaning: I will put my mind to it; I will make sure my presentation is appealing. I will pay attention to details, no room for 'cut and join' or shabbiness. A man of excellence stands out and will always keep ahead of peers. Hard work is the first step for smart work because hard work gives the experience which enables us to think smartly on the easiest way to solve the problem. With hard work and smart work, I will achieve my New Year resolution. Let’s share views, please drop

I assumed Chizzy is celebrating a milestone and would want a more inspiring post or something about herself but after i got her email to guest write on her blog, i asked if she has a topic she would want me to write about, she simply said "You can talk about your blog and your work as a creative director" (hmmm such a big heart) Let me tell you how i met this amazing lady.

Depression- What about it?

Image
Depression is an emotion that comes up every now and then.Life really is a mixture of emotions though you pray the good supercede the bad and the ugly. So what happens when you are depressed? Do you sink in and hit rock bottom? Or do you fight it ? It's not a good feeling and no one deserves to be depressed so you have to fight it. Some of the things I do during my downtimes that are really helpful to me and I hope someone that comes across it might find helpful. 1: Identify my triggers and run away from them as much as possible or at least till am in a better head space. 2: Depression triggers the need to find comfort in food,watch what you eat at this point to avoid eating all the unhealthy food choices that will increase your health risks. 3:Talk to people you can really trust about whatever is bothering you and hear their perspective. 4: Keep a journal.I call my journal "healing journal" where I write all my crazy thoughts,concerns, challenges everything.
