 On Personal Power Personal power is the ability to bring oneself online after a long period offline in any sphere of life. While many crave the spotlight, true mastery of social dynamics —from societal presence to significance —is essential to commanding its domain.  Achieving mastery in fields like social science, from understanding social dependence to social death, marks one's ascent to certified mastery. Fear dissipates when one truly embodies their purpose ; purpose is sort of an essence, occupations and professions are the vehicles through which purposes are effected.  In my less informed days, I thought and acted based on the belief that gratifying sentimental desires offered the best emotional rewards and modest material gains.  However, true elevation occurs on one's own terms, and overcoming challenges to discover one's authentic self offers realistic emotional rewards and infinite material gains.  In life, one's path defines their identity. Actions, ...

 May Musings. On Riches.  Riches is being able to live whatever life you want to live at any point in time, and equally having the ability and the means to achieve this end.  The richest men have the ability to afford all they want to achieve or they have the ability to be content with whatever life has dealt them. In our contemporary times, the richest are those who have the most in material possessions, In realistic terms, the most content person is the richest.  Being rich is a mindset, the content have gotten to a point where they realise that the life they desire, they live already.  The content are self-aware, in that, the desires of others aren't theirs. They've realised that what makes one happy differs from what makes another happy.  In all, living whatever life you want to live and having the means to do so is synonymous to being rich.  True riches is realising our oneness with the universe ; everything in the universe is inside every one of ...

 Adam : His Fall, The Antidote, His Destiny "Genesis  2:20 And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field..." Adam was an ordinary man until the spirit of God breathed into him and made him an inspired man, this inspiration made him see the earthly world from the lens of God, his spiritual nature knew the names of all the beasts of the field and he named them accordingly.  Adam and Eve only had a knowledge of good.The knowledge of evil was kept away from them. The serpent who was inhabited by Satan the adversary had the knowledge of evil and because he is the apex beneficiary of this knowledge, he sought to trick Adam into his schemes, He achieved this through Eve which was his feeling man.  What felt new, novel and attractive tingled.  The knowledge of good and the knowledge of evil are laterally different.  The moment Adam tasted the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, he became aware of evil an...

 Asiwaju Bola Tinubu is a man whose politics I learn from. I see how much effort he has invested into shaping Lagos State into what it is today. Apparently, he hasn't lost any election that had his name on the ballot. I tipped him to emerge the winner in the 2023 elections; it wasn't all smooth as the electioneering processes indicated, his emergence as his party's flag bearer coincided strongly with a time when disgruntled citizens desired a change from gerontocracy to a government run by younger leaders who are much closer to the existent realities. Reality is hard to change. There are many factors that have to be perfected, from the origination of an idea to its completion date. Mountains take time to be levelled up, and trusting a leader is often necessary to enjoying his or her tenure. I appreciate Jagaban's people development drive. What people development means, If a man skilled at cutting trees has knowledge on how to cut trees, he will cut many trees successfu...

  Real Life experiences and the need for social approval. The only ones who do not seek social approval are those who have it. The same goes for attention, power, wealth, and knowledge. In Solomon’s book of Proverbs, I encountered the light about a man through desire separating himself to seek and intermeddle with all wisdom and it struck a chord with me.   Emotional life: The earlier years of my emotional life were fraught with negative emotions that I have come to identify with relationships, although I now understand why this was so – my own emotional life wasn’t the best and this reflected in my actions and attracted all the things that I didn’t want in my relationships. I feel relationships – the deep ones – make life better (I don’t feel this, or else I’d have been in a relationship..duh but I have the head knowledge). Women are just going to externalize all their feelings and if you have something in your feelings that you’re secretive about, you’d better steer cl...

 It's 2023. Writing gives me this higher perspective, I mean I get to see my life from a bird's eye perspective.  In 2022, I was actively engaged in service to my country Nigeria and also got a job at a multinational organisation that specialises in professional financial services. The good thing about 2022 was that I got to grow and learn new things that really took me to another level. I've always thought that reality is sweet once one overcomes the obstacles within that makes reality dour and dull. Thing is, overcoming these obstacles is  hard and beyond a point, I think it is humanly impossible to overcome man-made obstacles but spiritually possible to do so. why? see, people will offend you and get on your toes, if you're not like spiritually grounded, you will fight back and fighting back will culminates in setbacks.  Patience is hard and impossible to attain if you don't live in the moment, living in the past or projecting some fantasies into the future furth...

  Cowardice, Recklessness and Courage : Getting out of the comfort zone. Cowardice is despised, recklessness is unwise, courage is the perfect choice. Attaining courage from a point of cowardice requires purposeful reckless acts, you are already used to a comfort zone in cowardice, getting out of that comfort zone is reckless.  If you were fearful, overcoming fear is reckless, if you were poor, overcoming poverty is reckless. Getting accustomed to, and building a comfort zone around recklessness counterbalances the comfort around cowardice, achieving this has already made you courageous.  Your brain builds new neural circuits as you act engage in purposeful acts of recklessness.  In life, cowardice keeps you from what you want, recklessness keeps you stranded because your devil-may--care actions makes you foolhardy, oftentimes recklessness makes you forget why you wanted it in the first place.  Only courage gets you what you want.  Attaining courage from a ...
