How Did I Get Here? Moving On!

By -

I read an article on yahoo the other day, it was on 10 things to not say to your boss. After reading the first three points, I felt it was a waste of my time to go on. Actually I felt then that it was total nonsense and couldn’t believe someone took their time to write that.

It makes one wonder, either the article was really nonsensical or I am the one who thinks myself to have above and beyond common sense.

Well, that incident left me wondering how to pick and choose and how to avoid making decisions that waste my time. How do you know what you have decided on won’t be a total waste of time? I still have no concrete answer.

But, looking at my life over the past year — I have made a lot of major decisions and am yet to conclude if they were profitable or not.

One thing I have learnt though — No matter what path you picked and how it ended up, don’t lose you. Keep trudging on, keep moving forward. Don’t let yourself stop you.

What’s done is done

Don't berate you

Don't turn complacent

Have no regrets

Even with regards to what wrong was done to others, the best way to make it up to them is to become a better version of you.

"Life is a series of decisions. Whether you make the correct decisions or not doesn’t matter. The important thing is to keep going forward"~ Er Gen, I shall seal the heavens

"An upright man falls down seven times, each time he gets up"~ paraphrased, Proverbs 24:16

Have you heard Colbie Caillat’s Try? I am beginning to understand that the most important thing is to get up. You just have to get up! Get up! Get Up! GET UP! Keep moving forward.

I started this blog 5 years ago and it doesn't show at all and then I started a travel blog 7 months ago, TERNGU and it really hasn't been easy. Am really excited about my travel blog, I love having it around but I've still got a lot more work to do, developing more and better content, being consistent, learning social media marketing tactics and so on.  Well, yesterday, a friend sent me the 10 day freedom blog challenge, at first I thought yes wow! this could be a real challenge and then I tried to find a way to make it go with my travel blog and it did work but not quite well. I was just going to give up, I soothed myself saying how it was never my plan to blog everyday for the travel blog anyway and then my friend nudged me a bit more and here I am. This blog post is in response to Natalie's 10 Day Freedom Plan Blog Challenge Day 1 There really isn't any excuse for me not blogging here, I have a lot of blog ideas, I write them down, but I fail to devel

Before I go to the main point, I'll like to share about a writing and publishing space I discovered of recent. MEDIUM . Its basically a platform where anyone can write and share their ideas and articles. If you like writing but do not really want to have or start a blog, medium is a good place to be. Or if you already have your own space where you write, it's still a good place to be as you can reach a different audience and it allows you to republish stuff already posted on your blog. One of the articles in my Medium Daily Digest today was titled, Write to Express not Impress by Jeff Crume. That article is partly what pushed me to finally write this post. I felt disrespected some weeks back when I greeted two lovely human beings that I considered as acquaintances and got no response from them. Surely they saw and heard me or so I thought. I didn't even feel like a tree in the following moments, which would have been better (trees are living things), I felt like

War Against Stupidity//Say No to Stupidity

What happens when people are stupid? Innocent persons suffer. What happens when other people are still stupid? Innocent persons still suffer. What happens when other people decide to remain stupid? Innocent persons keep suffering. Who is innocent in this case? The one who is not party to another's stupidity, the one who has never tolerated nor contributed to another's stupidity in any form. Nobody was born to be stupid, there are some people that were born with mental retardation or developed it afterwards. They are not stupid, they are physiologically ill. Note my statement above, nobody was born to be stupid. Many of us though as infants and children were stupid and without sense. That's why a baby at a certain age, will put almost anything in its mouth. Then we grow and mature, become more sensible and keep learning and keep being enlightened. Stupid people choose to be stupid. Stupid people have refused to learn and be enlightened. Stupid people have
