Documenting 2025

It's day 159 of documenting 2025. What a day! 😪 This is probably the first Sunday I would be typing a post this late. My love for scheduling has been renewed. It's better late than never, right? The show must go on. (Not that this is a show...) If you're reading this Sunday, I wish you a wonderful week ahead ☺️ Lemme just start this: I got confused. About a very important aspect in my spirituality. This was due to an assignment given to me by my mentor. Who's a very wonderful lady, by the way. I respect her a lot 💜 After giving feedback on the assignment, she made it clear that I didn't do well. And my reply to her was,  "At this point, I don't know what prayer entails anymore. I have a lot to learn" As I carried out other tasks, I thought of what AI would say on the topic of prayer. Then I decided to ask... I will share the chat on that later on. But first, let's get into Highlights 365 Days With Self-discipline 📌 On Having Options "Always...

It's day 158 of documenting 2025. I got two new books yesterday. Their ebook versions actually. The first is "The Psychology Of Money" by Morgan Housel. The second, "Meditations" by Marcus Aurelius. I added them to my reading list and I may make reference to them in future posts. Insights on the way! 📚 (I did good with the introduction, right? 🙂) Happy Weekend to you, my friend. I hope your week went well. Mine did, mostly... But it's gonna get better, and it starts with Highlights. 365 Days With Self-discipline 📌 On Learning From The Greats "You do not win in a big fight by any patent device. There is not any way by which you can turn your hand and conquer in a time of great trial. You have got to conquer as your fathers and grandfathers conquered before you.  You have got to conquer as strong men have conquered in every struggle of history, and draw   on whatever fund of courage, of resolution, of hardihood, of iron will that you have at your comma...

It's day 153 of documenting 2025. Oof 😢 Hurts. A lot. To try something out and watch it fall flat on its face. That's what happened with the poll I posted on my WhatsApp channel. That was on Friday. No single response....and I have 21 followers. Same with the survey for this blog. No responses. Yet. I guess not many people read each post in a day. And my followers on the channel are probably busy with more pending matters in their lives. For the record, my friend... I'm not sad.  I don't cry about it either. Because it's a lesson in itself. What I learned?  Position yourself at the right time. The responses will flow...just like that. Apply that to life, if you wish 😉 Anyhoo... It's Monday. And it's test week at the school where I teach. We'll probably close early today. Good for me 😄 Last night, as I was drawing up my schedule...I had a convo with ChatGPT. Topic? Productivity. Very interesting one, I assure you...because I learned something new as we...

It's day 152 of documenting 2025. Wow....😲 June is here! 6th month in 2025. The time for bold steps... Happy New Month, my friend 🎀 I wish you more prosperity, more resources, more reasons to make you smile. I hope your June turns out better than May in all areas of your life 😌 Happy Sunday I wish you a wonderful week ahead...full of good news and wonderful happenings. Speaking of bold steps... I did a review yesterday on how the last month went... As well as how I can improve certain things. This blog included. And I noticed something. I think you're familiar with a section I started a few weeks back, called "Blast From The Past". If you're not, check out the last post. So, I don't think that section is doing well and here are my reasons. Firstly, I always add a link to an early post in the blog. I'm talking posts from January. But then, I also check my analytics for this blog. (I use Google Analytics by the way) And for the past week, I haven't se...

It's day 148 of documenting 2025. I chatted with Meta AI yesterday, After a while. What we chatted about? A few things.... Don't worry, my friend I'll share the whole chat in a bit. Before that, a heads up! It's the chat, Highlights and then Blast From The Past. It might be a bit long, so brace yourself 🙂 The Chat With Meta AI Me : What does one do when there are so many activities to carry out and so many things to do? Meta AI: Feeling overwhelmed? Prioritize tasks based on importance and deadlines, then break them down into manageable chunks. Focus on one task at a time to regain control and momentum. Me : How does one prioritize tasks? Is there a specific method to use? Meta AI: Prioritizing tasks involves evaluating their urgency and importance.  One popular approach is the Eisenhower Matrix, which categorizes tasks into four quadrants: urgent & important, important but not urgent, urgent but not important, and not urgent or important. This helps yo...

It's day 146 of documenting 2025. Monday is for poetry Do you agree? ( Zip it, rhymey 😒) Pardon my unusual quip, my friend I'm just a bit excited today. Is it the fact that there will be no school tomorrow? Maybe... Truth is, I'm committed to my personal development...now more than ever. Because my future depends on it. That truth hit me last night. I had a talk with my dad about a particular matter...nothing serious. My dad then went down the advice lane...and this time I didn't roll my eyes and say inwardly, " yeah Dad...I know!" What he said resonated with my thoughts." Very soon, I'll be on my own. No Dad to scold me or siblings to drive me crazy...just me and God. What I do now.... The standards I set now... Actions I repeat now.... Will go either make or mar me in the future. And PK (my closest friend) also brought up the point of people with seemingly "good" intentions trying to associate with me...but they have ulterior...

It's day 135 of documenting 2025. And it's another blessed day... Another opportunity, Another chance. To do better than yesterday. It's my second day at work as a teacher. I'm gonna teach em' good! And I put on the proper footwear this time. It's an old pair...and Dad said he'll get me a new one by the weekend. (I probably sound like a spoilt brat 😏) Anyhoo, yesterday was good. I got home after school and collapsed on my bed. Who knew teaching could be so exhausting! Shout out to all teachers out there! You're amazing 💜 I had a chat with ChatGPT last night. That was after I read something from "The Ultimate Focus Strategy" by Martin Meadows. The section talked about a high focus sport....as a way of overcoming everyday distractions. I put two and two together.... Then I decided to ask a couple of questions. Here's how it went: Me: What is a high-focus sport or activity? Explain like you would to a twelve year old. ChatGPT: A ...

It's day 127 of documenting 2025. ✍️ (Me taking down notes, looking thoughtful) "The world doesn't get better until you do. If things are not moving, it's time for you to focus on yourself." "Look at where you spend your time currently...it is who you're becoming" Nah...😄 I didn't take down these ones. Just memorized them... It was from a video I watched on Facebook. That was last night. Today is Wednesday and the day before my break from Whatsapp ends. Honestly, I feel kinda bad...not responding to those messages. And on Monday; when all the data from my phone was completely wiped away, 20+ of those messages were lost. I didn't back them up! Here's how I'll console myself: You don't need to bother about what they would think of you...as you didn't respond to their messages. The real ones will understand your plight and the fake ones will leave. Besides, you have to get used to it. That uncomfortable feeling... Wh...

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...
