Thank God its Monday

Humility is one of the most important human traits which is not only taught in the education sector but it is also a religious principle which always ensures that you are in good books with the Lord and with men. Humility is often defined as    the quality of not being proud because you are aware of your bad qualities and this is a definition that has been widely accepted though today I will touch on the knowledge and learning aspect of humility. As a child, humility is one of the greatest things you can teach them because it is at this early stage were a child's level of humility will determine how much they learn in class...but why is that so ? I think it is because humility is that inner voice that is telling you that what you don't know is more important than what you know.  People are very defensive when it comes to what they know even though what they know is not enough and their lives not being exactly were they want it to be is just a clear indication of that. So ...

  Telling the truth is often hard because you have to know the truth in order to tell it and that is hard as well. By definition the truth is  that which is true or in accordance with fact or reality . There are many people who would do whatever it takes to get what they want and this includes lying about themselves, the things they have done and what other people have done. Most times one can actually get away with it but only for a very very short time and then the consequences come knocking. The opposite is true as well, if you tell the truth, the consequences may not be immediate but they are going to come in the same way the consequences for lying come. The most common law of physics is for every action there is a reaction so before you say anything remember that your words have the mathematical potential to have an impact in at least a billion people's lives. The thing that most people often overlook is that lying to yourself is actually more damaging than lying to other...

Have you ever asked yourself what is really important and meaningful in your life or rather do you have a mental list of priorities in relation to what is meaningful ? Meaning represents something's intent or purpose. As people we are all here for a specific purpose which we need to discover and dedicate our lives to pursuing. That is however another topic for another day, today it is about knowing what to pursue in your life.  Meaning is not categorized as one of the senses or emotions and that is because one can not embody meaning rather it is more of an instinct and it tells you when you are in the right path. It is like when you watch a "motivational video" or read a book, you walk away from it feeling as if more value has been added into your life and no one can tell you how or when to feel this, it is just natural.  The human brain has 2 sides, the right side deals with things that you do not understand and the left is there to deal with the things that you do unde...

  There are over 6 billion people on planet earth today which literally makes each one of us a spec in the dust when it comes to world statistics. The issue that arises with this is that people often then under estimate the power of their actions. Look at it this way, in your network of friends, associates, colleagues and family members you could know over a hundred people and those hundred people know their hundred people each. This means you are 1 person from 10 000 people and 2 people away from a million . This just shows how huge an influence on act has on the world so next time you are about to do something bad remember that your actions have the potential to impact a million people . So seeing how our actions have either a negative or positive impact on millions, the same can also apply in our lives where a single change of habit can have a domino effect on everything else in your life . My favorite part would be how Jordan Peterson advices young people to clean up their room...

Well, this is one of those titles that can be a bit confusing because well first of all how can I be my own boss and my own employee as well. The original 5th rule for life according to Jordan Peterson is " Do not let your children do anything that will make you dislike them ". Well as many of you may know I do not have any children so I decided to take the rule and fit it into my life. The rule is... look at yourself from an outsider's point of view and weed out those qualities that make you cringe when you look at yourself doing them. It seems to me like we had been focusing more on the power of habit but when I read this chapter I realized that a person's character plays as much an important role as anything else in your journey to success. The rule talks about how each one of us has a moral obligation to be useful to the community and aim for the highest possible good.  To avoid poor behavior in children, Peterson argues to limit the rules imposed on them and use...

  Comparison is a tool that is used to figure out or determine what or who is better. It is an indicator of what is the best over what is good. We compare people, prices, quality, quantity, locations and many other things in our lives. Comparison of people based on their current positions only has 1 issue in my view... it does not consider all the factors that led to the situation being how it is . As humans it is natural for us to always want to be better than the other person in terms of success or wealth hence you find yourself comparing with other. Back in the day, primary school to be more precise, I would always admire the rich kids who would be dropped off in all the fanciest cars and bring all the nicest food for break time and lunch. I would always compare myself with this kids and automatically declare that their life was much better than mine  and how I wish I could be them. I am sure a majority of us have all been through the same and I am sure you felt the exact s...

"Do not be misled : Bad Company corrupts good morals "~ 1 Corinthians 5 vs 33. Perhaps one can say I was fortunate enough to have a Sunday school teacher who constantly hammered this verse and its meaning into my head at a very young age. My teacher seemed to have understood the importance of association for human beings. Naturally one would go crazy if they were to be in isolation for a very long time without seeing or talking to anyone but the tricky part is you can also go crazy if you are surrounded by people and have been talking to them for a long time too. The important part now is to realize what kind of person you are dealing with and what kind of impact they have in your life . When choosing our friends at a young age it is all about who you like and who makes you feel good or who is the most popular or the prettiest. Character is not yet an issue because everyone is still growing and still trying to find themselves. As we grow older we now realize that the criteria...
