TIME – The Essence of Fructuous Living

Image
It has often been said that time and tides wait for no man. I first learnt about this phrase when I was in primary four from the literature book ‘ Çhike and the River’ written by renowned Nigerian Author Chinua Achebe when Samuel Maduka Obi (SMOG) told Chike to hurry up and gather enough shillings (money) to cross the river Niger before the bridge was built across it. Also, it is said that Mr Time is nobody’s friend. But I beg to disagree. Who would give every Tom, Dick and Harry equal chance at life? Only a true friend could. Who would provide us with an equal platform to thrive and make headway in life? Only a true friend could. How then is Mr Time no man’s friend? Truth is, time can indeed be no man’s friend. In fact, it can only be friend with those who come to embrace the way it operates. True? Absolutely yes! Before we proceed, let’s agree on some facts about time.

6 Vital Ways to be Resolute with your New Year Propositions

Wow! I'm so happy you made it! Happy New Year my friend. Glad to have you here. I'm convinced this year is going to be the best yet for you. However, there are just a few things that could help you start the year on a great note (like you definitely want).  I know we're now at that point where New Year resolutions would begin to fly in here and there. People would begin to make meaningfully (at times outrageous) pledges for the New Year. But the truth is, only a handful get to follow through with their propositions. This may be due to unforeseen negating circumstances or personal ineptitude. Research has shown that only 8% of people who make resolutions actually achieve them. So statistically, I bet you're one of those who didn't. Not to worry, you could join the elite list of the 8% mentioned above. All you have to do is carefully read and follow through the points itemised below.
