INCONSISTENCY IS LEARNT.



At first when my coach mentioned this to me, I just shrugged and then smiled. 

"What harm will a few days of not being consistent do?" I thought to myself. A lot of harm apparently. 

Once a writer isn't always a writer, just a year back I could write really good love poem and then I stopped, an attempt at writing in that line currently will be really difficult if not impossible, that's what inconsistency does.

Well, long story short, I had this particular daily task, I haven't been able to keep up with it for a few weeks now and trust me, initially I had really strong reasons for being inconsistent with these task, now it's just laziness since my mind had already adapted to being inconsistent. 

Funny enough, motivation and positive confession doesn't help in this case. The knowledge that I've got to get back to these task hadn't helped me start, same way beating myself over it didn't still help. 

Today I happened to motivate myself so much, backed up with a zillion positive confession quote, in the end i'd go to bed without doing it. 

Dearest reader, inconsistency sucks, and it's a disease. It all starts subtly and soon the impact blows on your face all at once, fueled by laziness and excuses. But when you notice the symptoms or see the warning, oga take heed. 


Merry Christmas❤️

"NOT ADMITTED"

Image
She clicks on the Whatsapp group chat,  Yet another "Congratulations, you've been admitted", with her heart heavy, she angrily leaves the group, minimize out of Whatsapp. There she is patiently waiting for chrome to load her admission status, this is the third time today she's logging into her jamb caps.  Her eyes almost eager with hope, she muttered under her breath, "God please" The network server makes matter worst by going sluggishly as she clickes "Regular admission status" she closes her eyes, hoping against hope, praying fervently, that this time it'd be different.  But it's not, because as she opens her eyes slowly, she's greeted with an arrogantly boldly written, "NOT ADMITTED", screaming at her. Suddenly the dam breaks.  Silently, tears begin to stream down her eyes, taking a rather familiar router via her chin.  The urge to throw her phone across the room intensifies, she wishes she could will her admission into exi...

TEAM WORK

Image
It can be quite frustrating when a collective effort results in only one person receiving all the praise. Even if my contribution is just 1%, it shouldn’t be overlooked. You never know how these small efforts can make a significant difference. My bubugaga is back from school, and today we did a lot of tidying up. It’s amazing how I suddenly find the energy to work when she's around, despite my usual laziness. After completing so much work, we took a break—we were honestly worn out. Fast forward to the end of the day: everyone applauded her for a job well done, as though it was solely her effort. It felt off because I felt I deserved some recognition too—it was teamwork, after all. So, the point is, you never know how hurtful it can be when someone's effort goes unacknowledged. No matter how small the contribution, appreciate it alongside the major ones. Dearest reader, do you find yourself annoyed like myself when your effort is overlooked in a team work?  @favvy_Ok...

LESS THAN ONE.

Image
There are days when my arms are too heavy to hold a pen, my brain too disorganized to put a sentence together, my thoughts an unending swirl of emotions. But then there are days—days when my smile can break through your screen, invade your life, and steal alongside your heart. Days when my excitement can be likened to that of a 2-year-old, where my inquisitiveness and curiosity know no bounds. Well, today is the latter. But like a poet I love once said, "Even if the light's turned on and my fears are not gone, I'll give it my best shot because the show must go on." So, I'd like to talk about something today: the idea of "LESS THAN ONE." But before we dive into this, allow me to tell you a story. ***** Once upon a time, I had a friend. You know that feeling of being friends with the girl every guy wants, so you get a lot of "Please help me talk to your friend"? In school, we had our lunch bought by different guys each day—one of the ...
