A  r ecent research has shown that many young people worldwide are opting for internet-related jobs. This includes jobs like influencing, digital marketing, or remote jobs.

Would you quit Social Media?

 Welcome back...it has been a while...I have been busy making this world a better place for myself, why would I want to make life good for you?  I hope you are making life tolerable on your end.

I have not been so active even on social media this is after I watched a TEDx show 'quit social media'

Many talks on the show are like high school weekend challenges, you get saved for two days, on the third you back to being Judas.

 Incredulous who wouldn't give in to salvation were easily swayed by motivational speakers.

 These morons would start using timetables, completing assignments on time, what sucked was how they could ask a million questions just after the lunch bell rang, which lasted for only two weeks.

At least you now have a clue of what the TEDx show talks are like.

The truth in the video is one you would not admit.

Although the speaker looked like a nerd, with so much knowledge of what he was talking about, what I loved about what he said was that social media is not a fundamental but a source of entertainment

The clock would not stop ticking after you failed to update a status on WhatsApp or Facebook neither would you stop breathing for not Snapping for your Instagram stories. 

It is absurd the risks people are willing to take for social media, you have seen people die for pictures.

Social media is addictive and mentally disturbing...it should be added to the list of millennials' drugs.

Apparently, non-social media users are said to be happier, less distracted, and mentally stable compared to social media users.

You should have a reason to worry if you cannot stay away from social media for more than three days

Just like drugs if you want to quit social media you have to detox, that is how dangerous it can be.

nevertheless, I am not quitting social media, I know even after watching the show you still will not.

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 ...
