Integrity {Part II}

Question and answer on Integrity. Presenter: We welcome Miss Adeyanju Opeoluwa life on BlogSpot. And today we’ll be taking integrity as a case study. Opeyanju, can you tell us what you refer to as integrity? Opeyanju: I take integrity to be an undivided or unbroken completeness or totality with nothing wanting…WHOLENESS, UNITY. Sometimes success, riches, wealth, prosperity, friends, challenges to mention a few will come and go and at some point may visit again but INTEGRITY stands. PRESENTER: hmm, amazing. Any other idea on Integrity? OPEYANJU: Well, I believe the integrity of an individual is his completeness. And by that I refer to every part of his life excluding nothing. It is a state of total obedience, holding on to your word at all times, having a quality of honesty with strong moral principles. PRESENTER: That’s really captivating though, but the heart-breaking thing is that we do not live in a world of integrity anymore. Do you think we can still live a life of int...

PROMISES

Sometimes ago, I found myself walking out of a really tight friendship zone. I loathe my actions looking at the memories with this dear friend, I discovered I had made a whole lot of mistakes, presently I still discard those memories because I made some promises that I personally knew I couldn't fulfill. After the incident, I decided to avoid or completely stop making promises (as the case may be). Promises, as we all know is making a future or advance commitment, dedication or prediction. Most of us make a lot of promises but have we really thought about fulfilling the previous debt? Making promises can be very dangerous if we don't fulfill them. We carry them on our necks everywhere we go and they secretly affect our lives. When we see the people who we had made the promises to, we tend to feel startled and pray they don’t remember our debts. Avoiding promises can be practiced; at least it leaves us on a safer side. It helps us live a free life which is preferred to ...

Secret Disciples

Secret Disciples When we do things in life, sometimes we think we do them out of pleasure, or out of personal interest but we are totally wrong. Especially when we do them for personal interest,we feel no one is watching us except God. Funny enough,some of us even know what are engaged into is very wrong and we intentionally say " God forgive me, I just have to do this" or 'Father in Heaven, forgive me for this thing am about to do'.    The plan truth is that there is one little person whom we do not know exist,sitting somewhere watching us- our dressing,our moves,the way we react to issues of life- in fact watching everything about us. That little( or maybe an adult) person is called our SECRET DISCIPLE. May be referred to as Secret Admirer also.     Our secret admirer wants to be like us,wants to do everything we do,imitate and imbibe our lifestyles - sing the songs we sing the way we sing them, make the same moves we make with our hands and head, follow the p...

Integrity (Part 1)

   Integrity    Very popular but less functional. Integrity is simply the state of being wholesome (i.e. sound and healthy, promoting moral and mental well-being) and unimpaired (i.e. not rendered less effective). Let's do a simple mental class. Give your own definition of integrity while I give mine. STATE-BEING OF SOUND AND HEALTHINESS/WHOLESOMENESS. Integrity is taking your first bath of the previous day around 12:30 am of a new day. STATE OF UNIMPAIRED. Integrity is starting a meeting by the set time regardless the number of people present so as to be able to meet the set closing time of that meeting On the other hand, Integrity is doing the right thing at the right time in the right place with the right materials with or without the right people to watch, supervise or judge. Are you a being of integrity? Do you keep to you words? Have you a firm Yes and a solid No? Do you compromise a little bit? Do you bend your values and standards to please oth...

Love Language

Love Language This is the way of expressing one's love feelings towards one's family, friend, spouse, girlfriend, or any other loved one Primary Language of Love: I refer to this as the best preferred way or act to express one's love to another person. Major Love Languages are: 1. Words of affirmation 2. Giving of gifts 3. Acts of service 4. Quality time 5. Physical touch All humans have one or more of the 5 major Love Languages as part of their attribute. They show it unconsciously to everyone they get closely related to. Most people don't know their Love Languages and that's part of the reasons they have interpersonal problems relating among friends, associates, colleagues, families etc. Love Languages aren't only for people sexually related or people in love but exist among friends and family. It is the way you presently relate with siblings, families and friends that you most likely extend to that soul mate of yours. Some people don't s...

YES! YOU CAN.

Why are you doubting the capacity of your ability? Why are you scared of launching the goodies in you? Making the precious stones to glitter is one of the paramount thing why we are created. Do you know that  MTN came to Nigeria at a time when nobody wanted to invest in Nigeria, at a time when Nigerians did not have phones. Even Zenith Bank refused to loan MTN cash to operate,UBA rejected MTN's offer but today see the difference. What about Cowbell? When they came to Nigeria,they made milk in a sachet, Peak was laughing at them - they said Cowbell was milk for the poor - but they were right! 3-million poor people could afford N10 a day for a sachet of milk.Oya, do the math - 3 million people buying milkat N10.00- that was N30million every single day.In a month they grossed N900million (almost N1billion).Even Peak had to make sachet milk in order to survive in the market. So what have people told you?What have they said you cannot do, or you do not qualify for, or...
