The Scales 🤳⚖️™️

I know when we met you thought you knew exactly the type of man I was. That was your first mistake😅 Your second mistake was treating me like the rest and expecting that would be good enough. You don’t treat a King with any less than the best of everything and expect it to be okay. I’ll never accept being an option nor will I settle for disrespect and dismissal. Your biggest mistake was thinking that I would accept scraps of your time and attention and be happy with it. I’m not that kind of man- not one in a million, but once in a lifetime. So, you have a choice to step up and give me your best, or I’ll step away and close the door. No hard feelings, Just reality. Just Saying😏

Is it our willingness to achieve that helps us to gain success? In the journey to success, there are many barriers. Some barriers are external, and most of the time, we have no control over them. Some barriers are created by our own minds. Once we learn to overcome them, we get closer to success. Everyone desires to achieve something in life, but not everyone makes it happen. Some people might be more privileged, but if there is a goal to achieve, there is often a challenge that needs to be overcome. If you lack the resources, it may be difficult, requiring more time and effort, but you can still make it happen. All you need is a strong willingness to turn it into a possibility. A strong will can not only overcome the challenges, but every time you meet with an obstruction, it will find a way out for you. Just Saying😏

TAKE OFF THE MASK Can I tell you something that will go a long way in lifting your spirit? Can I tell you something that will serve as a confidence booster as you aspire towards achieving success in life? Permit me to tell you with absolute certainty that the easiest thing you can be in this world is you. Don't fight with who you are. It is counterproductive to do so. There is something tragic I have noticed under the sun which I believe ought to be addressed; I have noticed that many people like to be anything but themselves. Some people just hate themselves. They can't live with the reality of who they are. So they try to live in denial. There are people in life who constantly strive to be what they are not. They just want to be somebody else. They want to have someone else's abilities, talents, possessions, and looks. What such people do not know is that no one can truly be happy having something that does not belong to him. That person underneath will be full of frustra...

  Marriage has nothing to do with Love. Love is just a cover-up used by people to hide their true agenda. Here are some of the Reasons people get Married. 1. Alliance If you look back at human history, you will find out marriage was only for wealthy people and Royalty. Marriage was used to unite kingdoms, nations and wealthy families to maintain or grow their power, status and wealth. In the current times we can also see this with Arranged Marriages practiced within some cultures. 2. Religion Most of religions condemns or shames having children born out of marriage. Therefore, you see most people trying to get marriage before they have children out of fear or what other people will call or view their children. In the old day’s children born out of marriage were called bastards. 3. Sex Yes, sex. In most religions having sex before marriage is highly condemned and shamed. So, some people actual get marriage so they may have regular sex. Also, some people don’t believe in having sex ...

Are you being controlled by your past memories? Our memory is a reminder of experience and learnings from the past. Some experiences may have been beautiful, and some may not. How we learn from our past and move on can make a significant difference in how we feel in our present. Whether it is a mistake you have made in the past, a person who has broken your heart, or you experienced any other loss. If you keep the blame, regret, or pain in your heart, you cannot move on and experience the present fully. There may be times when you do think about it; it is just that you shouldn’t get carried away with it. Accept your past, remind yourself that you cannot control everything in life, forgive people, fill your heart with love and give yourself entirely to your present. Just Saying😏

BLAMING OTHERS WILL TAKE YOU NOWHERE I discovered long ago that the world we live in is full of blamers who are always pointing accusing fingers at people, things, and events that are 'responsible' for their misfortunes and failures. I have noticed that people just blame anything or anybody in sight. They blame their parents, their teachers, the government, the economy, the weather, their wristwatches, their cars, and literally everything in sight. The truth is that all of us are prone to putting the blame for our inefficiency and failure upon society, environment, early training ---- any place but our own precious selves. It is so convenient to blame others but ourselves. To many of us, we can never be the ones at fault, somebody just has to take the blame for whatever happens to us when actually our own indiscretions, carelessness, and naivety may have been the cause for our condition. Strangely, you hardly hear of people crediting others for their successes. Most often, they...

 Minor adjustments needed to keep your relationship happy? Making adjustments means developing more acceptance for people and their behavior because we understand their uniqueness. Relationships are two-sided efforts. The adjustments also need to be from both sides. Conflicts usually happen when people fail to accommodate each other. If you make a few adjustments to accommodate, not only does your relationship become smooth but also becomes long-lasting. Never let your ego stop you from making adjustments. If no one makes adjustments, the relationship is bound to break, and if only one person makes adjustments, it is only a compromised relationship. Just Saying😏

Success is usually measured in terms of material achievements. In reality, success is achieving your goals, whether material or non-material. Most people are greatly influenced by the wealthy or those considered of high status in society because these people are seen as being the most successful. Although, achieving material success requires dedication and commitment, so is achieving a certain level of physical and mental fitness or spiritual success. Neither we can compare these different domains of success, nor people who choose different pathways in life. If you have achieved in any aspect of life, feel successful. Success is all about how you feel about what you have gained, whether wealth, good health, or connection with self. Just Saying😏

 A lady was driving along with her father. They came upon a storm, and the young lady asked her father, What should I do?" He said "keep driving".. Cars began to pull over to the side, the storm was getting worse. "What should I do." The young lady asked? "Keep driving," her father replied. On up a few feet, she noticed that eighteen-wheelers were also pulling over. She told her dad, "I must pull o...ver, I can barely see ahead. It is terrible, and everyone is pulling over!" Her father told her, "Don't give up, just keep driving!" Now the storm was terrible, but she never stopped driving, and soon she could see a little more clearly. After a couple of miles, she was again on dry land, and the sun came out. Her father said, "Now you can pull over and get out." She said, "But why now?" He said "When you get out, look back at all the people that gave up and are still in the storm, because you never gave up...

  What is this life?  >>>👇👇👇 When I was a kid, my Mum liked to make food for dinner every now & then. I remember one night in particular when she made dinner after a long, hard day at work. On that evening so long ago, my Mum placed a plate of stew and extremely burnt yam in front of my dad. I remember waiting to see if anyone noticed! Yet, all my dad did was reach for his yam, smile at my Mum, and asked me how my day was at school. I don't remember what I told him that night, but I do remember hearing my Mum apologize to my dad for burning the yam. I'll never forget what he said: "Honey, I love burnt yam."  Later that night, I went to kiss Daddy good night and I asked him if he really liked his yam burnt. He wrapped me in his arms and said, "Your mama put in a long hard ...day at work today and she's real tired. And besides... A burnt biscuit never hurt anyone but harsh words do!" 'You know, life is full of imperfect things... And im...

I encourage you to avoid negative people, places, and events that darken your mood and outlook and avoid falling into the “negative self-talk trap” yourself. The universe responds to the energy you put out into the world so if you are sending out negative vibes, you will attract negative people, experiences, and energy in return. I guarantee you will experience much more joy and fulfillment, and achieve much better results in life if you consciously surround yourself with positive people and work to cultivate a positive mindset. This is the first and most important step in learning how to build self-esteem and start believing in yourself. Just Saying😏

  Your thoughts can bring things to your life, they can also take away things from your life. If you can see it in your mind, you can experience it in your life. For as a man thinks in his heart, So he is. Your mentality towards things is what becomes your reality. Even in a negative situation, train your mind to think positively. Sooner or later, what you carry in your mind will become what you carry in your hand. How you think about the situation is more important than the situation itself. If you can maintain a positive attitude, you can climb to a higher altitude. As you go out today, Be careful of what you think. Train your mind, force it to see good in every happening, that's why the bible implores us to guide our heart with all diligence, for it determines the course of our life. Change your mind from "I am losing and failing" to "i am learning and growing". Change it from "I'm broken and helpless" to "I'm healing and building"...

 In life, no one gets promoted to the next level or stage without some form of tests/ examinations or outstanding performance. For God to promote you to the next level, He will also test you to see your level of patience, commitment, perseverance, and unqualified obedience to Him. These days, many young adults are under intense pressure to achieve in a day what took their parents 20 - 30 years of hard work filled with periodic sleepless nights and early mornings to acquire. They do not want to put in the necessary hard work but want the reward NOW NOW AS E DEY HOT!! This is why miracle centers and evil schemes like kidnapping, banditry, daylight robbery have become some of the most lucrative business ventures in the World.  Dear friend, Don't run ahead of yourself or be in an unrealistic competition with anyone. The grass always appears greener on the other side, but you can endure and cultivate yours to become the greenest! If you are in a haste, certain doors look very invit...

  What you are made for will always exceed who you currently are, but inside of you lies the potential and capacity to become all that you are destined to be. You carry a seed of greatness inside of you, the world can't wait to eat off your fruits, but they will never get to experience what you are made of if you choose to remain as a seed. A seed will have to go through changes, get dropped into the dirt, covered in darkness, struggle for the light, then spring forth out of the dirt, and grow and become a tree, full of fruits, a blessing to the world. The change will never come if you keep waiting for someday or some time, you are the change you've been waiting for, you are the change you seek. Get to work, build yourself, leave your comfort zone, come out of your shell, face your fears, pursue your dreams. In life, the hardest thing and the right thing are often the same, so embrace difficulty, go through the struggles, be ready to be embarrassed, to fail, to be disappointed,...
