Mistakes to avoid

One thing that can make anyone happy is discovering areas of life where people are wrong...but they feel they are right.

Am i the only one??

You start talking about something, then suddenly:they sigh,take off their glasses,lower their voice,then share some "wisdom" with you...ONLY THEY ARE COMPLETELY WRONG! 
The worst part is,they "feel" they are right-----facts don't deter them,of course.

THE COMMON MISTAKE YOU WANT TO AVOID

"Your audacious life goals are fabulous.We are proud of you for having them.But it is possible that those goals are designed to distract you from the thing that is really frightening you-the shift in daily habits that would mean a re-invention of how you see yourself"
-SETH GODIN

Transformation and overnight successes get a lot of hype.[For good reason,who wouldn't want to be more successful in less time?]

But here is the problem;when you hear about a dramatic transformation or a incredible success  story,the only thing you know is the event that people are talking about.You don't hear anything about the process that came before it or about the habits that led to the eventual result.

It is easy to let these incredible stories trick you into doing too much,too soon.When you get motivated and inspired to take your life to the next level,it is so easy to get obsessed  with result.

It is natural to think that we need the result,the transformation,the overnight success.But that is not what you need,You need better habits.

My Identity Crisis

  Oh, hello This is uum kind of awkward. You would think after doing this for so many years, I would be so courageous and confident to stand before a crowd. It's almost like every event I'm invited for,is a chance to stand on the stage again for the very first time.  Somehow I believe that's the beauty of it all, the nervousness, excitement, the adrenaline spike that rushes through my body helping me prepare so I don't get so comfortable in my God-given abilities and slip up. Well, as some of you may know My name is Emediong Francis Udoudoh and I wear many hats but for this event, I choose to wear my green public speaking hat. Can I have a seat please? I hope that's fine yea, okay I think I would be more comfortable if I assume the friendly kind of vibe position. Thank you very much. So, as I was saying my self and my green hat we want to talk you today about identity. As many of you may know, I am the founder of Dimensionsofgold conglomerate but what you don't

Dear Men

Dear men, Scratch that . Dear society, you know; never mind. I keep saying I want to have just boys because I want to teach them that being a guy isn't so much of a big deal,we all got blood running through our veins. When I listen to some guys speak it gets me annoyed,confused and a whole rush of different emotions I can't put into words. A woman speaks up for herself and she is labeled aggressive. Read the reason I left Feminism A woman tells you this is what she can put up with and y'all say she got an attitude that would lead her no where.  Well, I don't want to go no where with you and that mentality. When a guy does any of this some how the word personality appears in the dictionary and everyone goes on and on saying thats just his personality,"Its a masculine thing". Well, you are damn right it's a feminine thing that i won't put up with any thing you believe a woman should put up with simply because she is a woman and if it takes m

On Being A Feminist

The other day I was privileged to attend an event, it wasn't necessarily a church program but it centered around Christianity and women. So of course the guest speakers would be women but one was particularly very interesting. This lady  went on and on about how Christian women should act, which I agreed for the most part and learnt new  things. However, she took me aback with a particular statement she made "you can't be a Christian and a feminist". She went ahead to attempt to back up her claim by saying "feminism is a cult group". At this point the only thing I could utter was Hmmm, wahala dey o. I immediately had to google the meaning of feminism and right after I searched for misandry. I know there has been a lot of attack on people who identify as a feminists but this was the first time I heard "...you can't be both a Christian and a feminist". I had a lot of questions as you might have guessed. I honestly just wanted to understand where
