Life is the best teacher of all

Life is the best teacher of all. Most of the time, life does not talk to you, it just sort of pushes you around. Each push in life is saying “Wake up. There’s something I want you to learn”. If you learn life’s lessons, you will do well. If not, life will continue to push you around.

How do we navigate this street called life? How do you meander through its ups and downs, its lefts and rights or its highs and lows?

Are you the spur-of-the-moment spontanious kinda person typically going with the flow? Or are you the let’s-wait-and-be-absolutely-sure-before-we-move kinda person?

Success and Climbing up

January 20, 2009 on 5:03 am | In Career, Financial Success, God-factor, Life, Quotable Quotes, Self Development, Success Tips | 8 Comments

I got thinking again this morning(how for do now?)…this time around its about the pressure we often put ourselves (and others) under to climb up ( the ladder of success of course)

We complicate it further by adding the rate at which you must climb and the timing under which it must be achieved to it. So its not just enough to have been seen to have “arrived”, you must have done so very rapidly and in quick successive movements, not so? Otherwise, you no be high-flier abi? Hype!

Remember this

April 10, 2008 on 3:22 pm | In Life, Quotable Quotes | No Comments

“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy…..Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

 Whenever you are going through rough times, it all gets so daunting and you feel like packing it all up and quitting on life, remember this and be encouraged. You will definitely come out stronger.

 Whenever you are feeling really comfortable (and this in itself is not bad) having never gone thru rough times and you are thinking, “I’m the man….” remember this and be humble. You will be the wiser for it.

Are you?

My first Snippet goes thus…

Are you..

          Afraid to Live, and afraid to Die?…..

I guess Dolly Parton has more to say in her song…

Dolly Parton – Afraid To Live And Afraid Of Dying

They say most anything you eat could hurt your health

Be careful what you drink, don’t harm yourself

And pollution in the air might make you sick

Makes you afraid to live, afraid that you might die too quick

Do the men that quote this danger really know? (that)

Life is a gift to be enjoyed and not to worry so

The biggest danger sign that we should know

Make sure we’re right with God, as through this world we go

We’re afraid to live ’cause we’re afraid of dyin’

And afraid to love the one we love, afraid they might be lyin’

We can’t enjoy life when they say each thing might bring an early grave

We’re afraid to live ’cause we’re afraid of dyin’

Do the men that quote this danger really know? (That)

Life is a gift to be enjoyed, why worry so?

The biggest danger sign that we should know

Make sure we’re right with God, as through this world we go

Make sure we’re right with God, as through this world we go

Time Flies II

This is meant to be a follow-up to the article …Time flies  http://www.abiolaalabi.com/2008/03/09/time-flies so please read it up first. We rounded off by asking what difference knowing how much time one has left will make to living a better life. I got a friend asking for the definition of Time (this has got me thinking to always remember to include definitions in my articles abi?). Anyhoo, I ran the word “Time” thru all reference books as I typed on MS Word and these two jumped at me,   Continue reading Time Flies II…

Time flies

March 9, 2008 on 4:36 pm | In Life, Motivation | 2 Comments

I was exchanging mails with an ex-school mate recently and one of the mails had a picture of her baby boy taken about a year ago. She exclaimed, “how time flies!” obviously referring to the remarkable growth in the boy since the time the picture was taken. In my reply, i suddenly found myself waxing lyrical and that’s the inspiration for this post.
