The Word Known As "Altruism"

Image
It's day 120 of documenting 2025. Yep! I'm typing this late... And April 30 is today's date Happy Wednesday, my friend 😊 Where do I start? Oh! I know.... Altruism. You know what the word means? I didn't....until last night. Then I realized....that word defined my very existence. Before you think, 🤔 "What's this girl saying now?" Let me explain. I first heard the word, "altruism" in a song by Taylor Swift. You know "Anti-Hero"? The exact lyrics are: Do you see my covert narcissism I disguise as altruism 🎶 Like some kind of congressman Tale as old as time 🎵 If you haven't listened to the song before, I encourage you to do so. It's says a lot behind the beats. I say this because sometimes, I realize I'm the problem. Then I remember Taylor's song and I just say to myself, It's me...hi I'm the problem...it's me Anyways, I discovered what altruism meant last night. For som...

After that? Movie and Amigurumi!

It's day 119 of documenting 2025. Finally! I wrote the exam I've been studying for 😁 Will I take a little time off to rest and recharge? Heck yeah! But after that....it's back to work. Business wise, I've thought about what I want to stick with. There are three options. 1. Affiliate marketing 2. Freelancing 3. Selling my digital products Number 3 is the winner. I've touched on affiliate marketing and freelance writing.... Made some money from both and learned a lot about marketing. But I haven't sold any of my digital products....yet. I have a couple of em....but haven't made any sale on my Selar store. Only offered some of them as freebies to grow my email list. (Going off email marketing for the mean time.....). I want to stick with it this time around. I've realized that my attention has been spread thin on two many things.... I think that's why I can't focus on one thing....like seriously! This idea comes......

Note This About Self-actualization!

It's day 118 of documenting 2025. It's exam day! As you read this, I'm already on my way to the exam center. For my date with destiny... Wish me luck! 🤞🏼  Yesterday, I located the center with my dad, who accompanied me. His agenda was to calculate the fare to and from the center. And he did. He's not going with me today....and I didn't take my phone along either. For safety purposes 😏 My prayer is for God to have his way and crown my efforts with success. Tomorrow's post will contain a lot of gist....make sure you don't miss it! On to today's business.... Highlights from the usual read, which is 365 Days With Self-discipline by Martin Meadows. A chat with Cindy, my Meta AI on something called, "self-actualization". The full chat, this time.... Let's get into it ✨  365 Days With Self-discipline  📌 On Free Things  "Most transactions have an upside and a downside, but when something is "FREE!” we forget the downside. ...

It's day 117 of documenting 2025. It's official! Today's the day before the D-Day. Super exciting 😆 My dad and I will check out the center today. Happy Sunday, by the way! It's a new week already.... So, cheers! 🥂 I wish you a wonderful week ahead. Yesterday was my last day at the tutorial center. Well, last day as a student preparing for exams. I will still visit from time to time. (Probably to charge my power bank since the transformer is faulty 😏) Anyhoo... Today's post will be business as usual. Until Tuesday. I'll share today's highlights....no comments this time. And I'll also share the chat I had with Cindy on a pretty interesting topic. Then my closing lines 🙂 You ready? Great! Let's do it! 365 Days With Self-discipline 📌 On Dressing New Things In Old Habits "Whether selling a new song, a new food, or a new crib, the lesson is the same: If you dress a new something in old habits, it’s easier for th...

Chains.....Or Change?

It's day 116 of documenting 2025. Some realizations just make you think, don't they? 😔 That's how I felt yesterday. Down. In low spirits. Demotivated. But you got to read today's post, right? The show must go on, my friend. I don't want to go into details.... I'll just share today's highlights. No comments... Then share yesterday's chat with Cindy (what I call my Meta AI). Then say my closing lines. Happy Weekend by the way.....🙂 I almost forgot it was Friday yesterday. My mind is jumbled now, so forgive me. Exam on Monday. Pressure and anxiety. Realizing I have more personal defects to correct. It's a whole lot.... Before I start blabbing, here's the highlights for today. 365 Days With Self-discipline 📌 On Taking The Low Road "The problem with making an extrinsic reward the only destination that matters is that some people will choose the quickest route there, even if it means taking the low road....

Do You Know Your Attachment Style?

It's day 115 of documenting 2025. 3 more days to go! The countdown is real, my friend. 3 more days to the exam I've been preparing for....for 10 weeks! Major changes were made, activities forgone and online work suspended. And it all comes down to this 😌 Word is, there might not be light in my area for a while. Last night, the neighbors had light but we didn't....and Dad said there was something wrong with the transformer. Too bad. Good thing I got angry enough with the fact that I couldn't charge my phone and used most of my savings to buy a power bank. I also got earphones and a charger. Savings reduced.... But it was for a good cause. I won't get angry when my dad uses up the power bank and I can't charge my phone.... Or when my brother uses the charger and I have to wait for him to charge up his phone. But my dad wasn't so welcome with what I did.....at first. He said I could've told him before I went ahead to get those t...

Have You Heard Of "Self-efficacy"?

Image
It's day 114 of documenting 2025. 4 more days to go! (Including today of course...) The exam that determines the next course of my life. It goes by the name, JAMB CBT. Now that I think about it 🤔 It actually determines everything... Let me explain. When I pass, it means I'm qualified to apply for admission. I then move on to the processes, which involves an exam at the school I chose when registering. When I pass that, I can proceed to application. And when offered admission, I.... You know what? 😐 I haven't really done my homework on this. I'm just saying what I think will happen. (Do your research, Duon!) I believe things will go well....but if they don't, I won't write JAMB again. Heaven knows my mind is made up. Third time's the charm, yeah? Fingers crossed 🤞🏼 Anyhoo I just want to share today's highlights from the usual read. As well as my chat with Cindy (my Meta AI) on an interesting topic, self-efficacy. I ac...

As Promised....A Chat On Self-licensing!

Image
It's day 113 of documenting 2025. 5 more days to go! And I finally write the exam I've been preparing for. Twas just ten weeks ago, my friend. I have to pass, because a lot of people are counting on me to do so. I won't let them down. Anyhoo... Let's get to today's post. I said I would discuss "self-licensing" in the previous post. Well, I remembered to do that 😁 I'll share the chat between me and Cindy, my Meta AI..on this topic. But before that I want to share highlights from the usual read. Written by Martin Meadows ✍🏼 (Take note...) 365 Days With Self-discipline 📌 On A Lack Of Time "Instead of saying ”I don’t have time” try saying “it’s not a priority,” and see how that feels." Quote by Laura Vanderkam “I don’t have time” has to be the biggest and most common lie people tell themselves daily. It’s never about a lack of time, because it’s you who controls how you spend it, and you can always forego one t...

It's day 112 of documenting 2025. 6 more days to go! (Including today, of course....) My exam draws closer and closer. Before I know it, it's the day of exam. I believe I'm prepared 😌 Today's post will be made up of a chat with Cindy, my Meta AI. The topic is emotional intelligence. And then we move to Highlights, where I will share nuggets from the usual read. But before that, let me tell a little about yesterday. I was all into Chemistry yesterday. I jotted notes and practiced past questions on my phone. At the tutorial center, I got 66 out of 100 in the CBT practice for Chemistry. Pretty cool 😎 Well, today is Biology I'll finish up the topics I haven't touched. I also plan to do the CBT as well. The main objective is to focus on one subject per day, till Thursday. Yesterday, Chemistry Today, Biology Tomorrow, Economics The next, English Friday and Saturday will be for CBT practice for all four subjects. Guess twas more th...
