International Women's Day 2018: Meet the Woman!!

As we celebrate the International Women's Day 2018, we need to always remember;

In a woman lies a great deal of strength. It's what best defines her.
Oh, how she makes being a woman seem like it's a piece of cake. How she carries on like life has got no hold on her
She believes she can, and so she does!
Where she's absent, it becomes obvious that something is missing.
When all hell lets loose; when life seems to come in the way; when it looks like she's on the verge of breaking down, that's when she appears in all her glory - strong and ready to conquer the world.

They say they do not understand her. How she presses on, resilient and ever ready to make lemonades from life's lemons.
When the ups and downs and the tossing around of life try to disfigure her, she ends up getting a better figure than the last.
She multitasks even unconsciously. Little wonder people say "what a man can do, a woman can do better"

Isn't it amazing that the ones who are tagged fragile and vulnerable are in fact strength, personified?
What better strength is there than the strength of the heart and mind which she so greatly possesses? Yes, strong will. That's what it's called.
Don't be surprised. Afterall, she's the end product of the greatest creativity of all times.
She's a fascinating human. She knows her worth and how beautiful she is. Indeed, she's a wonder woman.


And so, to every woman out there:
The Multitaskers
The Calculators
The Fixers
The Superhumans
The Heroines with invisible capes
The born Caregivers
The Fighters!
You are worth celebrating on this day and every day because you are so much more than the world can see!
Happy International Women's Day

THE BRAIN: POWERFUL DETERMINANT FOR ACTIVATION OF POTENTIALS

The brain is the number one evidence and epitome of gabbage in gabbage out. I have heard some people say "Oh if I read this for a long time, my brain will explode. Lol, sweetheart that is super untrue.  Research has it that, only 2% of the human brain has been used 98% remains mostly  unused, so there ain't an explosion that comes from maximizing the brains capacity. Our brain weighs 1.4 kilogram and suprisingly has 14 billion nerve cells, so it has the ability to contain large stock of information, larger that has ever been stuffed into anyone's brain.  A great research was made by some neurosurgeons in their bid to understand the capacity of the human brain. This research was carried out with two categories of brains which were : The brain of a freshly dead professor and that of an illiterate who left his brain dormant. It took pretty time to do this great comparism and GUESS WHAT!!!🤩🤭😌😁😁😁 There  was no difference between the brains when compared in te

BURST THAT COCOON ( BTC )

D BROKEN SILENCE!!!! Some 8years ago , I feared standing up in the midst of a crowd not to talk of speaking to them. The irony about the issue was that i always had a succinct idea that i believed was needful to place this aright, but i always squabble in fear and let my mouths get sealed up. She got into trouble because i found it difficult to say a word and prove her guiltless. I got bullied a couple of times because my silence made them feel I was configured to be maltreated. I missed bonus marks in the class, not because I didn't know the answer to the "seemingly tough question" but because i just kept silence about my knowledge , feeling so timid to say my mind. Amidst this years people kept on telling me, don't worry its just the best way to be - SILENT, I felt worst when I noticed in my small veil- covered mind that even those who spoke made no difference. I never knew that a word fitly spoken can turn tides even if not immediately . The whole scene kept

 Part 1: The Foundation of Personal Leadership   Welcome to our series on Building Personal Leadership! True leadership starts from within. John C. Maxwell's had this to say about leadership- "Leadership is not about being in charge. It is about taking care of those in your charge." To take care of those in your charge, you need to have the capacity to understand their unique needs and challenges. You need to be steps ahead of them to understand their fears, worries, concerns and thereby provide relevant answers to their questions. Leaders who exert impact in the life of others are leaders who lead from personal experiences and who first invest in personal leadership. You can not give what you don’t have. If you attempt to do so, you will only feed them theories and leave them clueless on how to practice them. People stick to leaders who are masters at leading themselves. Hence, in your leadership journey, the best place to start is PERSONAL LEADERSHIP.
