This debate have been going on for a while now on different platform that it drew my attention. Either to work smart or work hard. Some will say "You really don't need that much hard work but when you work smartly you'll see the result" And the other will say "You can not achieve anything without hardwork" And so on.... So which will you pitch your tent??? Fine, we all want result and will try to evade hardwork and surely embrace to work smartly. But do you know what? There is a certain stage you could have worked before you can eventually start working smart. The only time you can eventually work smart is only when you have worked so hard to get to that level. A beginner shouldn't even think of working smart at first because it is more like you're looking for shortcut. Yes shortcuts.... And you know where shortcut can lead to? I won't answer that for you... Okay let me use Copywriting as an example. I am new in Copywriting and I just want to sta...

Reading the first two chapters of the Boron Letter by Gary Hilbert has been wonderful. Okay, let me brief you. Thank you. Actually talking about how exercises relieve your brain to function well. The past couple of days have been horrible just because I've been finding it hard to read for long. Fine, I'm not a type who can read for 5 hours straight but I know I can at least read for two hours on a stretch. But of recent even to read for 15 minutes has been challenging. Taking a book to read and in the next 15 minutes, I am already feeling a headache or feeling dizzy. I got worried, about how will I be able to catch up in reading the books I set for myself on a daily. Then I came across THE BORON LETTER, Though I was looking for something else which is Copywriting tips the first two chapters have just been what I really need now. It talked about doing simple exercises in the morning almost immediately when you are awake. Exercise like taking a road walk, jogging and so on after ...

Learning from one's mistakes is actually the worse thing to do. My photography instructor back then would always say,  Ola, for you to learn you have to make mistake. And I accepted it. After taking so many awkward shots, low, overexposed pictures and the likes... I kept trying, making mistakes at the process but at last I got a grip of it. And I was happy I made those mistakes because it gave me a whole lot of experience. But it took a whole lot of time, the time I would have used to do and learn other things. So I was just pondering, must I make mistakes before I can learn anything at all???? Why not learn from other people's mistakes?  *Like me learning mistakes???*  And it made a whole lot of sense... If my instructor back then had enlightened me more about her own mistakes, I wouldn't have made the same mistake before I learn from them. Just that enlightenment I needed and it would have saved me a whole lot of time I used in making those rigorous mistakes before fina...

_stretching my body,_ after just waking up from an hour sleep and the only thing on my mind is to write today's mail. Though I'm extremely tired, after the trekking and trekking, and my legs aching me so bad. But, I'm still excited to write today's mail. Seeing the genuine smile on people faces, while I was in the garden observing, I was connecting to their happiness. Yes I was connecting, as if it was me they were celebrating, nevertheless I felt their happiness, because I know someday... I know someday I will also put on that *YES I MADE IT SMILE*, but I know it is with consistent hardwork. To cap it all, I also met a wonderful person for the first time today after many months.  _(Yes, you are a wonderful and I do tell you this always.)_  I was very shy at first, I know too that I can shy like crazy, that I had to put on a nose mask and a glass to reduce the shyness. _pardon my English._  At least I got a grip of myself, and we started talking. Omo her height was........

Yes, we all dream very big and we aspire great thing, and of course it is very healthy to dream big. _( I dream very very big like buying China, lol)_ Dreams like, to earn in 6 digit, buy expensive cars, build mansions and the likes... But with no implementation rather just dreaming alone, you'll just keep on dreaming and be stuck in that dream. Fine, having that AMBITIOUS MINDSET is wonderful. I so love it. But, not working towards it, is even worse than the person without that mindset at all. Because you'd think you have arrived whereas you never leave bus stop at all. Dream big while you work towards it. They both work hand in hand. Aspire to be the best, but not with you playing upandan. Or you're relying on that cliché that says _what will be will be._  You want first class, right? But you have to read and work for it, not just first class with your mouth. _mba kóléwórk_  You want to earn in 6 figures? Put yourself in the position to earn that figure,  More like lear...

Not in the best of mood to write anything, Coupled with school stress, frustration and all. Omo I just weak. But I just have to.  Because I have a purpose and I am always driven by it. So no matter any situation either good or bad, I'm always driven by that purpose which is *TO GET BETTER.*  That purpose keeps me going and makes me work harder and smarter every time. I know I am nowhere near where i want to be yet, but I am sure I can get better with consistency. So, I let that purpose drive me, because I know it'll surely turn out good, that I'm sure of. Set those goals and let it drive and motivate you towards achieving it. Hiccups will surely come up, but you just don't have to let that weigh you down or affect you at all. Just because, a little distraction can really affect you and it could take days, if not years to get back on track. But those little or enormous sacrifices you make to achieve something will surely come good for you. Don't get distracted, just ...
