Cracking the Nut On Monday

35 Comments

Monday starts a new  working day, much of the weekend fun, ravishing and excitement is back in the knap sack. You’ve been up as early as 4 A.M, plans for the day starts, thoughts about meeting clients, Monday meetings, challenges of having to facing “hard to crack clients” gives one headache.

You are at work right now, and guess you don’t even know where to start. Someone out there is probably having a headache, thinking about how to meet the target, or if a query is coming any time soon. It could as well be that you are thinking of quitting your job. You are almost feeling sick in your guts and wishing you had stayed back in bed. You are probably still on your way to the office having this fear at the pit of your stomach that you might loose your job today!!! Blah, blah, blah.

We all have horrible thoughts on Monday, if not all, then a great percentage of us. The good news is that, this is what Monday actually is:

M- Magnanimous

Today is an opportunity to stand out as a great person, be large at heart, be tolerant to people around you, remember they also wish they are still in bed. Whatever you perceive from people today is just a perception of what is in their own head, don’t take it personal.

O- Optimistic

Say to yourself – I am not a PESSIMIST. Get up, go out there and conquer, today proceeds the journey … be hopeful that you will win the trophy, be affirmative, have that “I can do it spirit,” don’t feel weighed down.

N- Neat

Look exceptionally neat today, it signifies you mean business and want to make progress this week. It profoundly portrays the image of a serious minded person. It speaks VOLUME; Neatness makes us feel that we have to be at the best behavior.

D- Determination

Walk into the office, smile, do not get upset with people or situations today, both are powerless without your reaction. If you are your own boss, set targets for yourself, be up to the task, take your kids to school with the mind set that today is surely certain.

A- Astounding

You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today-Abraham Lincoln.

Dazzle, be impressive, be strong at heart-DISTINCT sets you apart.

Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to LOVE what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking and don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, YOU WILL KNOW WHEN YOU FIND IT- Steve Jobs.

Y- Yippee

Friday is TGIF, just as Monday is “TGIM” Be so happy that when others look at you they become happy too.

I hope this makes you have a positive attitude towards Monday, IF not, at least it will prepare you for the journey.

Little Changes That Makes A Man

17 Comments

Change is part of our daily lives that cannot be avoided, how we react to it is what matters. Accepting change in our lives gives room for the bigger picture. This picture is determined by you and only YOU.

Not accommodating change keeps you fixed in a position you don’t belong. The universe is in a constant change, not moving along with it can leave you behind. Imagine a ball rolling on the ground, moving constantly, your decision not to run along to grab the ball will make you loose it. A little change from that fixed position was all you needed to catch that ball for you to be a winner. Instead you stayed back and watched with fear of running along to catch it, you were scared of loosing or stumbling.

If we don’t change, we don’t grow. If we don’t grow, we aren’t really living- Gaily Sheely.

Resisting change is a reflection of who you are, accepting change makes you the highflyer-Eddaz.

Reasons why change should not be resisted:

Man resists change due to fear of the unknown. The greatest fear you should have is resisting change, so you are actually scared of what is right in front of you which is harmless, “stare into the eyes of what you fear most.” Stop having that fear of change, it might just be the solution to that knocking headache.

Morale is increased when change is accommodated, staying in the same position in an organisation makes you burn out; do something new that will lead to that change, motivate yourself if you aren’t motivated, “make the change, don’t wait for the change to come.” If you have to study further, then do that. If you have to search for a better job, then do just that.

Accepting to change your location might be what you need to meet -the-one, aha. Face that fear, travel to another state or country if the need arises or if work requires you to do so, it might just be a “blessing in disguise.”

Kindly share with others what change you have embraced in your life and how it felt.

You know what happens when you get sandwiched in between two beautiful sexy ladies who won’t take no for an answer from you?

Get on your knees and pray or go with the flow and get burnt.

The Smell of a Baby

28 Comments

Have you noticed the feeling that sparks up when you embrace a new born baby to your bosom, phew..It’s a sensational one that tickles the brain and makes you want to gobble up the baby. I have cuddled babies in my arms several times, and I began to ponder on it why they smell so sweet even without application of any baby powder, baby oil or ointment. This is a natural phenomenon which I realised that scientists have been carrying out researches on for years.

You might have noticed the unresistant sniff you take when you lift a baby in your hands, the scent is one that makes you want to hold the baby tight in your arms and never let go, constant sniff of a baby by the mother or someone very close to the baby, brings out this unusual youthfulness and joy to the person.

The smell is so attractive that if it were possible to bottle up the smell and manufacture it into a cream or perfume, lots of people would have done so, unfortunately I don’t think anyone has done this, probably they’ve tried…get it right that it’s just the gift from God that comes along with the baby itself.

babys-smell

In Frontiers of Psychology, scientists carried out a research where two groups of 15 women were presented, one group had women that had given birth within six weeks and the other who had never had babies with the smell taken from the baby pajamas while scanning their brains.

Result showed that those that had never had babies responded positively to the smell-with odor familiarity, pleasantness and more, even though the babies weren’t theirs’, same with the mothers… their brains responded to the trigger of smell from the pajamas, but their was a distinct response from the mothers to the smell of their babies than to the smell of those that weren’t.

The researches concluded that the smell from babies can act as a catalyst for mechanism of bonding between the mother to infant and infant to mother.

The smell of babies is the best I have ever known, except if there’s one I’m not aware of yet😘😘

Expert is Certainty

2 Comments

I am an expert of electricity.

My father occupied the chair of

Applied electricity at the state prison – W.C Fields

What does it take to qualify as an expert in a certain field of occupation? I have recently added to the side bar of my blog for anyone to send in their detailed questions regarding life and relationships.

I have recently been getting more questions on this topic which made me add it to that section. I also added to the heading that I am not a relationship expert. I am neither a psychologist but already about to start a course on that to formalise my ideas….😀😀

Feel free to make yourself anonymous should in case you don’t want anyone to know your identity, not even me!! I will only post the ones that are well detailed  which will require comments from my readers whom I always appreciate for their kind comments, shares, likes and follows. 💞💝

I will notify you through  my email once it’s up so that you may be able to pick one or two points to make use of from the comments;  which you can also send to: eddazoneddaz@gmail.com.

Thank you.
