If Rome wasn’t built in a day, or babies are not conceived, fully formed and delivered in a day, why then are we always in a hurry, rush processes or cut corners with tasks and even prematurely execute projects as serious as our personal growth or development?

I was recently having one of those ‘table-shaking’ conversations with a friend, where we both came to the conclusion that one of the few things that cannot be contracted out and has no shortcuts is ‘Physical Fitness’. With weight loss there are countless shortcut or quick fix options ranging from paying to go under the knife or liposuction, etc But…

So there's this conversation I have been hearing a lot lately. It is mostly heard when; The year is gradually drawing to an end, people are celebrating milestone birthdays like (30, 40 or 50) or at old students re-unions It usually goes something like this: “Another year is drawing to an end and I feel like I didn’t achieve much, I feel so unaccomp…

This week I want to share with you a testimonial that encouraged me to keep going on the lane of walking in purpose. I hope it does the same for and perhaps even more.

Some of us are very busy building ourselves, which is totally brilliant. Kudos and well done.

The MIND in itself refers to the part of a person that enables them to think, feel emotions and be aware of things. When last were you intentionally aware of your mind? Most times we just coast along with it and let it drive us in whatever direction it leads. When the mind is mostly left unattended, it randomly veers in the direction of the most pr…

Some people have said to me that planning is restrictive and makes them feel caged. I know for some of us Benjamin Franklin’s quote that says, 'If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail' is just really a quote or mantra and nothing more but for me, it rings true.I have experienced both sides of it and can say from experience that whenever I fai…

If there is indeed a giant within why do I feel small, why don’t I feel the strength of a giant welling up inside of me and bursting forth on the outside? Why do I put in so much and yet feel that what comes out at the end is so small, compared to how much I put in? Why then am I not making giant strides in my endeavors? These and many other mind-b…

Now I am bringing lessons from my Productivity Live Webinar. I was afraid. Afraid because I have never done a live webinar before. Afraid because I have never done a live video either.

This week, we are talking about going beyond surviving to thriving.

So it’s amazing to survive b…

Today it’s all about the party but naaaaah! Don’t grab your popcorn or drink because we are not throwing a party, rather we are ending the Pity Party. What exactly is a Pity Party?

Is there a connection between Productivity and Forgiveness?... Should we forgive if the person/offender is unrepentant and still hurts us? What if the offense is one that’s difficult to forget, how do you manage to forgive? These are thoughts that cross our minds daily as we journey through life. Now, Guess what??? As justified as they may seem, th…

Many times things happen along life’s journey and on many occasions they may be things that you would rather not face or admit that they actually happened or that they are actually happening. We would rather live in denial. But I realize from personal experience that living in denial doesn’t make it go away, it is what it is, so you will need to fa…

I just finished dancing to a famous 80’s tune titled, ‘Make That Move’ by Shalamar. It’s been a while since I danced this seriously.

You know how sometimes you just gloss over and never really pay attention to the fine details. …

When we focus more on making the best of the moment and giving it our very best shot while at it, we stand a better chance of winning at the end of the day and the possibility of acing it is usually higher.

Sometimes after life has dealt us hard blows, we shut ourselves out and hide away from the rest of the world. We hide away because something broke inside of us after the blow.
