Six (6) habit to avoid!
Habit is one of the traits that make up a human or will I say complete us. There is no man or woman on this planet who doesn't have a trait(habit). We have good and bad habits and of course, everyone wants a person with a good habit. Some people don't know the habit they possess is a bad one. There is a popular saying. If two or more people complain about you. Then it is not just them but check yourself. Who said it? I'm yet to figure that out. Today we would be discussing six(6) habits to avoid and if you have any of them, please make some changes. 1. Spending more than you earn.
Recently, I read an article published by @Princessbusayo titled; what do you spend on most? You can visit her page to read it. In that article, she spoke about an app that she used to monitor her daily expenses and income. With this one would know what they earn and how they spend. People who have spending people really need to see a therapist to help them cob the problem, yes I call it a problem because it is. Some would go the extra mile to borrow money based on the fact that they are expecting some money. It's not wrong when the money is put to good use, yet people with spending issues won't return it but rather spend it and hope for another one. Spending more than you earn is a bad habit, STOP IT!! 2. Hanging out with people who say No to every idea.
Do you know people's mindsets can be affected by those around them? If you put a wolf and a fox puppy among that of many dog puppies, there is a higher chance for the wild animal to behalf domesticated because of the environment and group they move with. That's just how humans are, if you make it a habit to move with people who say NO all the time to your ideas, then I'm happy and yet sad to tell you that you would never get anything done. 3. Playing the victim.
Do you know some people have never admitted their wrongdoing or believe they are right when they are wrong? Even when they know they are wrong, they would find an excuse to suit their wrongdoing. If a person never admits to their wrongdoing, then they are not ready to grow as a human being. In one of @Olasquare articles titled; T*...* Tune Thursday (TTT). Forget what the first T stood for😥😥 The musician which he focused on was Akon. Many of you might know him. The song titled "Sorry; Blames on me" showed how the musician had grown and was ready to admit his wrongdoing. He didn't play the victim here even when he didn't know the girl was underage, he went out to make a public apology. If you have this habit, learn from Akon and say "I'm sorry" next time. It would make people love you more. 4. Making Excuse.
Making excuses is not a bad thing that's for sure but we have some extreme excuse-makers. They are ready to put out 100s of excuses not to get things done or not to go out to a place. I have a female friend who I always visit every time but has never visited me. We leave very close to each other so I can say, the distance wasn't an excuse. But she always find excuses not to come until one day she told me if she breathed the air outside, it would make her sick, that's why she doesn't like going out.😨😨 Since then, I stopped visiting and if I would go, it would just be to check up on the family. 5. Trying to impress others
Being another person who is loved by everyone to your own mental detriment is totally off the chart. Like why would you want to impress others? You see, there are ways to impress people but when you're doing it or forcing it for people to notice you or like you are bad. Be yourself and let people see you for who you are. Also being yourself when it is at the expense of others too can be bad. Read **Just Being Me** by @Mikeoye and you will understand more. https://read.cash/@Mikeoye/just-being-me-78438a07 6. Focusing on the negative.
In life, bad things happen. We all have good days and bad ones, we can't have all the good days. You know why, people we are not perfect, no one is perfect. When you understand this you would like the past to go, instead of focusing on the negative that would only bring more negativity why don't you focus on the good things that have happened and work towards a better future? If you have the habit of focusing only on the negative, this can lead to depression and high blood pressure. In conclusion... The world is evolving and we should evolve with it positively, be an agent of change in your vicinity and let people from afar learn from you. I wish you all a safe and beautiful day or night. Furthermore, today should have been the day for the release of a new episode of **Welcome to Readcash Academy** but there was a little change so it will be published tomorrow (Sunday). Thanks for sticking with me on this journey. I love you all.

Everything that you mentioned above are the habits that I try need to avoid. I guess if these things are being avoided, we can be better and we can be the best version of our self.
Yes.. Its not easy at the start but it gets better
It is so sad to know I am a victim of some of this things you said, but I am trying so hard to change. I noticed a scenario you made about visiting your friend and the excuse she gave. What If she was correct about falling sick if she steps out? Did you find out if she was being sincere?
Well.. I understand what you said.. I know she's being sincere and she falls sick most time... But there is nothing wrong with trying. A visit won't hurt, let the other party see that you value the friendship. For her to make that bold move, it will change a lot in the friendship..
I agreed with you dear friend. We should avoid from negative thinking and even from friends who always say No on productive ideas. I am started to act upon on your words because I want to grow and groom.
That's is it sir/ma.. It will help you become better.. Don't let what people say define you
I also read that article, where she used a particular application to estimate the things that takes her money the most, I guess pepper was inclusive. Over spending is something we need to avoid, or else we will encounter Sapa
Sapa is real my brother😔💯
Omo! I used to impress others eh, but now it's me on the first spot and I don't think if anyone would take that position again. Living life to impress people is more like living in a cage unknowingly
Swears.. In secondary school I wanted people to like me so bad I started eating and acting like a guy did in my class but its in the past now.. I became so popular in higher institutions with the post I held and people who try to be like me.. I just tell them to be themselves
Thanks a lot for the mention, brother. I really don't appreciate those who focus on the negatives. They drain you of your energy and your optimism. I also don't appreciate those who try to impress. It's okay to be good but those who try to impress go against the order of things and that's why they get used. Be you... Those who spend more than they earn? That's a story for another day 🤣🤣😂😂🤣. It's a terrible habit. Those who want to impress always fall into this category.
Honestly, all topic can be a total article.. God help me, I'm trying not to spend more than I earn and its not easy. Cause expenses are always meeting up with your total earning. Also trying to impress others was my thing before that it got me acting like a guy in my class in secondary school, I mean, they way he walks, eat, talks and all. I regretted it.
In Economics we advise people to draw up their table of reference - listing your needs in order of priority... This helps to identify needs from wants... necessity from luxury... Most of the things we spend money on can actually be avoided... If we can't afford it, it's better to avoid it.
Well said Sir
focusing on the negative ,is one of my weaknesses that until now bothers me the most.I want to step up on what I can do and I didn't have the self-confidence to try something productive for myself.
You see no one is perfect but we can prevent imperfectness. There are steps to overcoming such habit. First, you have to believe in yourself and know yourself. Tell yourself word of affirmation and let yourself know you're worth everything this world can give.
I need to avoid that of spending more than I earn but data subscription won't allow that 😅😅😅.
My brother.. No be only you o. Now that I'm home, I thought my spending will reduce but FAM are here too needing one thing or the other
OMG that spending one, I don't want that to be a habit of mine that is why I am very calculative whenever I will spend for this or that. Though I still indulge myself sometimes with what I want, but I know aht I'm doing and spending for needs is still more than to my want
You have got it.. I guess in this age of time the pandemic and war is put us. Everyone number one problem is trying not to spend more than they earn. The comment is more of that. I'm also trying to fight that too
Yep, spend wisely is what we have to do.
I really do number 1 very much and I don't think I can stop hahahah😭 although I do persuade my friends to go out with me, but before that they must have agreed to that idea. Thanks for the article!!
You're welcome. Thanks for reading
alright
Well said bro, have been trying to avoid all this things you said here,but is not easy especially in the apart of spending.i believe with this, I should be able to work more on myself.
Start the work and each day you will be better
100 percent right for us to get motivated in successful things we need to stay far away from this
These are timely and relevant. I hope everyone should learn from these reminders.
Yes sir.. You're a sir right 🌚
