Consistency is key...

Why is being consistent such a struggle? Consistency is key, at this point it does not matter who said that, just know
it is vital in everything you do or are forethinking.

Being consistent means doing things that will at some point annoy you, like waking up every morning and going to that job that you hate so much but you have to because you need the pay.

Running every morning to keep fit even though your muscles hurt so much and it upsets you that even a simple exercise like laughing make your physiques complain.

You wondering where am headed with this consistency gospel, thinking that I have become an inspirational speaker overnight. I am upset at my self for not being consistent at what is chief and how I am majoring on minors.

I have not been writing neither do I feel like, for reasons not known even by myself.

I'm doing it anyway..

 This whole thing of quitting after two seconds of promising yourself how you need to invest on something occurs to all and sundry.

You remember that time in school when you scored five in Maths and two in chemistry and decided there and then how you would make a timetable and become disciplined enough  only to forget two days later.

You  returned to your old bad reading habits and in the next test you scored poorer, I won’t mention the marks…five and two was poor, poorer would mean …

This one time when you overheard a speaker emphasizing on being consistent, from your savings to work to personal development to relationships. You promised yourself to do better you even broke up with an inconsistent partner…that is how deep the message  sank.

Then two weeks later its all forgotten and you back to your disgusting old self who still cried after breaking up with the same boyfriend for the tenth time and mishandled money only to go broke in the same week you received it.

I would go on and on and on, being inconsistent is part of most of us, being disciplined is such a tussle that involves willpower and resilience.

What to do

Am no expert or councilor am here for moral support, whenever you want to quit on something just remember why you started it in the first place.

Let it be because you chose to do it, having a choice makes you enjoy what you do, to harness the courage to keep going we need to get to the right path and reflect on what you want to accomplish at the end, wrote Greg Mckweown.

ADIOS…

photo courtesy() Love and happiness or money and power choose your fate, if this question was presented to you, what would be your response? The few I have interacted with would go for money and power… love and happiness is overrated they say … you are aware of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet; you don’t want to go down that road. Cinderella alone believed in happily ever after, which can only happen in fairy tales and this is real life. To heck with love and happiness! Money is power, power is money, money talks, money is influence, lets just conclude like halfwits money is everything, has been, still is and will remain to be, was it not for money that greedy Judas betrayed the Son of the Highest? Talking of cash, I mean pure riches, massive wealth unimaginable treasure, not the Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos of Amazon size of wealth but Mansa Musa’s kind, a west African Emperor of Mali in the 14 th century. Mansa Musa is said to be the richest person who ever lived, with his net wort...

Happy feast (Eid Mubarak), so this is how good holidays feel on a weekday… we should have more of these. Thanks to the cold I am feeling old, I am on my tenth cup of tea, taking a lot of tea is a sign you are getting old.   It is not aging that I am afraid of, it is peeing. Do you know how many times old people wake up to pee at night?   I would hate anything to disturb my sleep. Holidays are for the working group, the rest of you every day is a holiday, count me out, or you don’t think writing is work, not that am complaining. If you want to give us a holiday, do it like the Muslims, they do not spend all their holidays in one month, see after Ramadhan they remember they will get tired of waking up and decided to spare one day, that was kind of them. Like the Christians, I think Christmas should not be followed by boxing day, it is a waste of holiday, you people receive no gifts, the day should be somewhere in January, at least people can take a break from the long ...
