Do we truly understand the reasons behind some occurrences?
This topic came up when I read about a story and it goes like this;
There was this Chinese farmer who just recently lose his horse and everybody in the town were basically tormenting with harsh words like "that's terrible, how would you and your son survive" and his reply was that maybe it's terrible but he doesn't know.
The next day, seven wild horses came back to his farm and it was shocking for him but he accepted them and took care of them and people came over after hearing this wonderful news and they came to tell him that having seven horses for free after losing his one was great and he replied "well, maybe"....
Few weeks later, his kid was taken out on one of the wild horses and an accident occured while coming back home and unfortunately, the farmers son lost his leg and all the people in the town came over and they all said "this is terrible now, isn't it?" And the farmer replied "well, maybe" and he smiled why saying this.
Few days later, the conscription officers came over to the town , to take people into the military to fight for their country and they pass by his son because of his broken leg and when the whole town heard this, they came back and told him,"that's great now, isn't it?" And he replied again with "well, maybe"...
The point I'm trying to derive is that we all don't really know whether the occurrences in your life is really bad or good in the sense that we don't really know how it's going to affect our life in the long run or what it's going to attract or reject in any ways concerning our lives.
Some bad things might be happening in our life right now and we might not understand that it's only just preventing us from some happenings we might not be able to withstand or defeat and also we face some challenges not because they are bad but they are only preparing us for the good days when we will need the experiences we accumulated during those years of striving.
There are some pleasure we enjoy right now, though we feel some guilt while doing it, but the pleasure derived from it is so good to us that we think there's nothing bad about it and also you don't think of ending it anytime soon but unfortunately we only realize that's bad only when it catches up on us and that's regrets starts to set in.
There is a reason for everything that occurs in our lives, even though we are not always aware of that reason.

Déjà Vu Effect
Have you ever had this sensation where you feel like you have been at this particular place before or you've heard this exact same statement before, just as it's occuring at that moment?... The dé jàvu effect, have you ever been in that situation before?...... Well, I'm writing this article to enlighten us on the myth and theories behind this so called effect of dé jàvu.
Dé Jàvu is a French word which means already seen, it's known as the illusion of remembering a scene or event and through my findings I discovered there are actually 4 myths or theory associated with De Jàvu and we should all know that these are just theories and myth and it might not be actual truth because if it is the truth, there should just be only one answer and not four..... These are the four myths.
1. Dé Jàvu is set to occur due to a situation that you have already experience this particular scenario in your past lives and in a way this theory had been countered where by it said that, you might have read something or seen something or heard someone saying something in a particular manner which you forgot, then when you hear or witness something in the exact same manner or pattern with what you've heard or seen before, your brain processes it as a past memory and gives it to us like a flashback, without an actual recollection of when or where or how it had happened.
2. we all know of the big bang theory right? And in this myth it said that when the big bang theory happens, multiple other big bang happens which created many more universe, like this universe we are in which brings the idea of multiverse and now it's believed that in this multiverse, there are replica of ourselves living either different life or same life and it's now believed that memories we get from dé jàvu are memories of ourselves in these other universe
3. Hyper perception, it's like a feeling of familiarity where you feel like there's something attached to this thing you're experiencing now that you've experienced before but you cannot pin point where this feeling is coming from, it's just like a genetic link between you and your ancestors.
4. the last theory was explaining dé jàvu occuring as a result of glitches in reality 😅😅, that's kind of funny because life is not a video game right?....
I feel this is enough for now because it's getting more interesting and also getting unrealistic 😅🤣🤣.

It can only be God
Greetings on Sunday, folks We all likely attended our respective churches today, and I'm sure you did so willingly and without being compelled to do so. You all undoubtedly worship God on purpose.
Being alive today signifies that God still needs us and If you've ever visited a cemetery, you may have noticed that it is blatantly stated that "**we were once like you" and "you would soon be like us"** at the entry and on the way back, respectively..... Every time I consider making a decision, especially a poor one, these words ring in my thoughts.
There won't be a difference between you and others in the graveyard when your breath is taken away, regardless of how attractive you are, how handsome you are, or how wealthy you are... No matter what individuals who are still alive currently possess, be it money, prestige, influence, pleasures, knowledge, power, perception, competency, suffering, hatred, or anything else you can think of, they all once belonged to the dead.
Being alive today is never our power, or because you're literate or wealthy,..... Have you ever experienced this situation before whereby you just passed a street before and immediately you got home, they said a disastrous accident just happened there right now and that's the same road you just took and God was so merciful that the accident didn't occur when you passed there and those that died in that accident, you are not better than them but God grace still kept you till this moment.
We no longer think about our life again, we just live recklessly as if we are in possession of our life and we don't realize that with just a snap of finger or just blink of an eye we are gone to the land of no return and it would be late then to turn good because the only opportunity we've they have been spent unwisely.
I really don't have much to say, and it's been a while since I published an article here on ReadCash, but I just wanted to share a little of what I learned today in church with you guys since I don't think anyone is giving up any time soon.
I hope things have gone fairly for you people. Additionally, those who are facing difficulties, You only encounter difficulties when something amazing is about to happen, so just trust that everything will be well, It's excellent news that you only experience difficulties because they help you prepare for good things to come.
And finally, I have made up my mind to join the church workers. I had been considering it for a while, but I was too enraptured with the world at the time and I believe that now is the right moment to begin making decisions about my spiritual life and work according to Christ way.
Thanks for reading 😊😇☺️😌❤️
The day we most feared is drawing nearer as each passing second goes by, always remember this and try and live your life according to the way of Christ.
Sometimes things you take for granted are dreams for others.
This picture evokes mixed emotions in me in such a way that I experience both happiness and sadness at the same time, I was happy because she had to go through this, and based on the expression on her face, I knew it was fantastic moment for her and My initial reaction was, "Is this all it takes for her to be happy?," which is why I was sad ... And that's when I realized that being happy is not all about what you possess but attaching gratefulness to the stretch of your life in the sense that you begin each day grateful for the things that are good in your life.
We all have a lot to learn as we mature and experience life's changes, and occasionally we do so in the most dreadful way ever, we need to understand that entitlement is a plague and I'm guilty of this and I didn't realize this until I start meeting different people and making more friends and I realized that **"people that even have less than me are more happier than me"** and this gave me more reason to think about this statement because there's a lot of substances in this statement, just like there are two or more molecules in a compound 👀😏.
I wish every kid have everything they desire in this world and this statement can cause a big distraction and we can read different meaning to it **" people shouldn't give birth to child if they can't afford good life for them"**.... But if we are actually living by this statement, there won't be Cristiano Ronaldo because he came from a very poor background, there won't be Lionel Messi and some other great players like Mane and the rest.... And obviously we won't witness celebrities like Oprah Winfrey, Leonardo DiCaprio, j. k. Rowling's, Steve Harvey and also some great influencers.
Sometimes I look at my life and I wonder why shouldn't I be happy because I do realize that some of the problems I have would literally be heaven for others that are less fortunate, definitely our problem in life matters but having a wider perspective is well important too....I promise myself whatever I do in this life, when I'm getting my own earned money I would always set aside donations for people that really needs it and though I don't really earn now, I still help with the small amount with me.....
The Truth be said, most things we also aspire for are taken for granted by someone or some people out there and the only way to experience happiness is by being satisfied because when you're contented you're definitely happy but never forget to still keep the hustle going while you're being contented 😌.
Everything is a stitch in the fabric of your life. Taking it for granted could make it all unravel --- unknown
Thanks for reading ❤️❤️❤️❤️💓😇

Monday In Da Ghetto
The primary cause of this article's lateness is that I was contemplating on what to write about today, The humorous situation that occurred this evening provided me the idea for today's article, after which I had nearly gave up, so I decided to share it with you guys.
`Kindly check out my awesome sponsors`
Today was a really stressful day for me because I had to use the bulk room, which required me to stand in line for more than 5 hours and Considering that it is Monday, it is normal for people to bring big sums of money..... I arrived at the bank in 30 minutes after leaving my house about 10 a.m., but what shocked me was how crowded the bulk room was, forcing me to wait outside in the banking hall and I stood there for over 5 hours and I was able to pass the time by watching YouTube on my phone, which is what kept me occupied the entire time I was standing there.
When it was finally my turn, I hurried over there to be greeted. After she was done, I promptly left for home and I instantly fell asleep since I was so exhausted, and before I realized it, it was already dark. I hurried outside to turn on the generator and Unfortunately, it wouldn't turn on, and I realized it was time to change the plug. However, there weren't any more plugs available, so I had to scrub the old plug with an iron brush before washing it in gasoline.
As soon as I done that, I informed my mother I needed to walk down to the next street to acquire a new plug. She advised me not to go since cultists are now operating at a tremendous rate but I chose to ignore her and continued to the next block. When I arrived at the shop, I discovered that all of the businesses there were closed, leaving me with no choice except to return home, But fortunately for me, I ran into a familiar face and asked him where I could find a generator plug. He replied that all of them had closed and advised me to return the next day. I offered him some spare change as he requested.
I instantly turned around to head home, but as I turned around, I noticed two men behind me. When I saw the beret they were holding, I realized they were cultists and they both ran to stay at my front and as soon as he commanded me to put my phone down, I smiled and said in a firm voice, "Shey o whine me ni, shey mo wa kere ni?," which mean, "Are you whining me?, Do you think am a kid?... He replied oya mabinu which means don't be angry and I said it's alright.
He then asked for money, and I gave him 200 Naira. He then suggested I should give him his real money, to which I responded with a laugh and the phrase "you work for my hand?" and Before I knew it, I saw two other men walking toward me, wearing the same color beret as the men I was conversing with. Fortunately, I knew those two men, and they introduced me to the previous guys and eventually left me alone.
On the walk home, I pondered why I disregarded my mother's advice and how much worse things may have turned out if I hadn't known the other two men.... But I was relieved that I escaped injury or conflict because I knew they would undoubtedly hurt me....... I kept the incident a secret from my mom when I arrived home because I knew she would ask, "Didn't she warn me? "
These so-called cultists have stopped me before, but there is more to life than just adhering to a particular belief system of being a cultist. Instead, go out and work to make money, have fun, and get to know God better so that you can become closer to him and have Peace throughout your entire life rather than one where you always worry that someone would come and kill you because you belong to a gang or have a history of murder.
Living in Lagos is really difficult, especially in neighborhoods where cults are predominant.

Don't you know you're blessed?
Everyone believes that what is happening right now is mostly within their control, while some people believe that events are simply occurring for no explicable reason and because of this we frequently fail to recognize how fortunate and blessed we are until something that used to happen on a regular basis stops happening to us .... Most people overlook the fact that there are some things we enjoy for free while others must pay for them and Until we are in their shoes whereby we must pay for those privileges we had freely before, I thinking that's when we are able to fully appreciate this blessing.
You'll realize that your life has been blessed when you begin to consider it in general, beginning with the day you were conceived, continuing through the time you were born, and ending right now and sometimes when you look around and When you look up old pals, you'll find that not all of them are still alive and that some of the ones that are may be battling for their lives in the hospital and some are still struggling while you are living your best life and still on the track on figuring out your success and you still don't believe you're blessed.
`Kindly check out my awesome sponsors`
Being blessed involves more than simply having enough money to meet all of your needs and wants; it also involves feeling God's favor and protection despite everything that's going on in this cruel world...... Sometimes life can be so cruel, and you might lose everything you take for granted all of a sudden. At that point, you'll realize that your life has been a blessing all along but you failed to recognize it, and now you've learned it in the cruelest way possible by losing everything you once took for granted.
I will list some ways to know we are blessed and I hope all these makes us grateful for the blessings;
**1. You Had Food Yesterday**
This might looks shocking but believe me when I say having food yesterday is a blessing, because millions of people couldn't enjoy a meal yesterday and they are hoping to have some today but here you're and you already know you're going to eat this night..... Some don't even get 3 square meal per day and you enjoy this blessings each day and you're not grateful, this is an opportunity for you to appreciate what you have.
**2. You Can Read This Now**
Most of us believe is our right to see vividly, are we even aware that some people are born blind?, Some just sleep and when they woke up, they became blind for no reason and you're alive today and with your eye sight working perfectly well and you don't get to go to the hospital for medical check up for your eye, I'm here to tell you that you're blessed because if you know how much people pay to operate some blind eye, I'm sure you will be more appreciative.
**3. You Go To Toilet Without Aid**
Have you ever been to the hospital before and if you haven't maybe a day were by you're free, kindly visit the sick people and you would know the privilege you're enjoying freely..... There are some people that can't visit the toilet just the way we do and some their waste are been passed through a pipe which is been attached to their anus and the amount of money paid to make tht possible is much and this is another reason for us to be grateful.
**4. You Breathe Without Aid**
We all know how important our breathe is and and do you know how expensive oxygen is in the hospital?... In our country here in Nigeria Oxygen is N4500(11$) per hour in hospitals and N108,000(260$) per day imagine how expensive that's for just a month and for a year N1,296,00 (3000+$) and here you're reading this and also breathing freely without paying a dime and some are paying this outrageous amount, from this moment you just have to be grateful for everything.
**5. You're Hopeful**
The you know that is only people that are alive that are hopeful?, A dead man can't be hopeful because he his dead with his hope and we are all alive today not because of our power, nor by our strength nor by our knowledge and every moment we spent here on earth, we keep hoping for better days, be grateful for each day when you wake up because God has given you another life and that life is hope..... You might be sick or have a medical condition but you're better than the people under the ground because being alive means there's hope that whatever you're facing will come to an end.
**6. You Have A Friend**
You have someone you can run to in days of help and someone that motivates you and help you see the light at the end of the tunnel, someone that knows when someone you need help and knows when something is wrong with you, without telling them, not everyone is opportuned with that be grateful for your friends.
Thanks for reading, there are more reason for us to be grateful because our life is a blessing.

Lazy day
In essence, today was neither enjoyable nor stressful, but I was thankful for the chance to live to see another day, I was feeling a discomfort in my chest when I coughed, and this made me feel really uncomfortable, so I woke up earlier than normal.
Fortunately, the generator was still on, giving me the opportunity to recharge both my phone and my laptop, which I had neglected yesterday night, There was nothing left to do but wash my clothing, which I wasn't in the mood to do after finishing up the housework, cleaning the room, and washing the dishes. I realized I wanted to do more, but there was nothing else to do, so When I went over to the television to watch it, I realized the cough was becoming too much.
To acquire Coflin, a cough medication that may make you feel queasy with just a teaspoon, I hurried to the local drugstore in our neighborhood,When the rain started, I knew I would fall asleep due to the rain and the medication I had taken, and within 20 minutes, I had dozed off..... I woke up around 1 pm and I discovered the rain wasn't planning to stop and at the same time I was very weak and also had a slight headache and I have no option than to rest again.
Meanwhile, I didn't have my breakfast and I couldn't go out to get food and the only thing in my room was my cornflakes and goldenmorn which is the best combination and I prepared some for myself and also added enough milk to make it very thick without using water.... Immediately I finished eating, I slept off once again and this time around, I woke up few minutes after 4 and I noticed the day had gone already.
I opened my ecency app and interact with people over there before coming to readcash to interact with my friends over here and while doing so, I remembered I haven't had my bath and I couldn't use cold water because of the weather and also my chest but I can't wait for hot water. I just went Straight to the bathroom and have a cold shower and I started trembling immediately I came out of the bathroom.
It's 8:49 exactly, I'm writing this article and the cough has gone down a little bit but the headache is just there, I'm planning to go out now to get some drugs and food and hopefully tomorrow morning I would be okay, because I'm planning to go to church very early in the morning and it has been a while since I have been to church.
I didn't do much activity today except sleeping and waking up and I got tired of it at some point, it seems the rain is about to fall over here because the wind keeps blowing.... This was basically how today went for me.
Thanks for visiting the article 💖💖💖💖
We only miss the sun when it starts to rain.
Have you ever considered the days when you don't value something and when you ultimately lose it, that's when you realize their value? and Losing it can be the best indicator that you are not truly appreciating what you have, and occasionally we may not be that fortunate to gain back what we have already lost.
I recall the moments when we prayed for rain, and sometimes our prayers were answered, and rain would last all day and We will begin directing our prayers toward halting the rain because we won't have the chance to play on that day and because everything would have been under flood..... I remember back then in primary school we had this song for rain... 🎶🎶Rain rain go away come again another day, little children want to play🎶🎶.
We only hate the road when we are missing home, I'm certain that we are all affected by this. I can recall how I used to always want to leave home for school in order to avoid doing the duties around the house and I always want to return home after staying at the hostel for a while because I'm already missing it and also debit alert is also getting too much 😂😂..... When you're at home, you receive more credit alert than debit but when you're not at home you tend to receive more debit alert.
You only miss your secondary school days when you finally graduate, those days I vividly remember when everyone were saying they can't wait to graduate and leave this hopeless school and they were all saying they can't miss anything about the school but now when they look at the memories we all shared together, they all wish they could go through it again but it's not just possible, the only they've should have done then was to appreciate the moment and they didn't and so they can't experience it anymore.
I also remember when BCH was around $370+ and people were actually praying for it to fall and anytime it dips, they tend to be more happier because they will have the opportunity to invest more and in the long run they would profit from it.... Now bch is struggling to maintain $120 and readcash is not functioning like before due to this fall and final now they understood what they have been enjoying when Bch price was high.
Let's endeavor to appreciate everything important that's happening in our life because you might wake up someday and you will realize that it has gone and you might not have the opportunity to experience it once again.

Be intentional with your life
Today article is about different areas of our life which includes things we are doing in our life and things that we have in this life of ours and finally how these things affects what we are planning and building in our life.... You not being intentional with your life is like you being asleep in a moving car and you're not aware of what is going in the car and also the the direction the car is moving towards at the moment.
Have you all ever sat down and wonder about everything you've been doing?... Have you ever thought of the time you woke up?, The people you surround yourself with?, And think whether all of these serve you..... if you've decided whether it's good for you or not, you will notice it's like an awakening process Because if you really get intention with this, you will start to realize that there are lot of things that you do that are really good and some you will keep wondering why are you still doing it.
Part of the awakening process is that you've been able to recognize that you've been asleep for a while and being asleep is being you being unaware of what is going on in your life and things attached to you and the next process you realize is that what you're doing, is it taking you far away from your goals or bringing you closer it?....
One of the most difficult experiences we go through as humans is realizing that the person we've been with for a while is never actually who we love to be, We squander a great deal of work and a significant portion of our lives doing what other people want us to do because we are readily hooked to things we shouldn't be rather than doing things we know that we love and success can be achieved through it.
During this awakening process, you realize that there's never a perfect time to prioritize things which we want and things which we want to do.... When you're truly intentional with your life, any negativity surrounded within you would all be known and intentionally you will learn that it's better to leave them all alone because life is better without negativity.
When making decisions intentionally, you don't emphasize them on what other people are doing but rather on what you see yourself accomplishing as you go along.... Some are doing things basically because it's fun doing and there's nothing wrong with that and likewise who said you pursuing your goals can't be fun?, You just have to love it and have fun and as well as also gaining experience.
Take your steps deliberately and mindfully, keeping in mind that yesterday is gone, today is still here, and tomorrow is drawing near, You'll be amazed at how quickly things will transform.

Finally, I joined Hive
The past several weeks have been exceptionally difficult, and as each day goes by, we see fewer articles, for reasons that we are all aware of, so I can't hold them responsible for doing that and Some have attempted to replace ReadCash with another platform, but we all fully comprehend that ReadCash cannot be replaced from the aspect of instant withdrawal, publishing, the rules and regulations and also the communities and how we save articles for later completion...... If other platform could provide all these, I'm still sure it can't be as perfect as readcash.
`Kindly check out my awesome sponsors: Given that I only have one standing sponsor and that if it expires, this might be the final time I flaunt them and sincerely I don't think they might renew because I heard there was an issue with renewing sponsorship.`
Concerning hive, I actually joined last week after which @Jumper-01 introduced it to me that he had finally joined and I had no option than to join, though I have be procrastinating for a while now and that very day I was very less busy and most importantly, I was motivated my my friend to join hive and so did I.
My first day on the platform, I wrote my introduction and when I was about to publish the write up, I discovered that I had to have some certain hive power and instantly I bought some using my debit card which was attached to my Google play store and fortunately it was successful but I didn't receive debit alert and I don't receive the hive power and the only way I knew I was debited was comparing my last transaction with my current money in my account.
I also checked my bank statement but same thing also, I didn't find the debit alert do to be sure that the purchase was successful I had to inform my ban using the famous social media account Instagram and within few minutes I got a reply from them saying this;
After I saw this, then I knew I just have to wait till I publish my first post but that didn't stop me from interacting with others and I go instant replies back from them.
I also noticed that some names are familiar on the platform coquicoin, farm girl, Pantera and princess busayo, those are the few people I know for now on the platform and hopefully soon, they get to notice me..... After two days I finally received my debit alert and I knew that anytime soon I would receive my Hive points that would enable me to publish my first article and why thinking of what to write, I finally received my hive point which is 303.057 Hp
I still don't know what I'm supposed to use it for, but I hope to understand it better soon. Until then, I'll probably only visit the site to interact and make some friends, I After leaving several comments and reblogging other people's articles, I was able to gain 7 followers on my first day and gained some badges. If I continued to approach it in the same manner, I'm sure I would learn more on how Hive platform works merely from reading other article.
Although I know my commitment would be split between the platform and other, I'm hoping that joining it will benefit me in the best way possible. I also make sure to find time to create a new article every day, as I have been doing previously, Although it might not be easy but I'm confident I can keep up with the pace and respond to every challenges effectively because the asuu strike is still going on and I'm not particularly involved in any school-related activities.
You can check my profile page and I make sure I follow you back within 30 minutes 😊, you can also drop your handle in the comment section, so I could check you out also and we can all connect over there.

You're not in control of other people experiences
Today article will be encompassed on people's experiences and the role that you play as another person in every person experiences and it's important to really dive into this because sometimes as a human we learn who we are based off of how we perceived other people treating us and so we build an identity of ourselves based on how we perceived other people perceiving us and acting around us and I'm sure we've hear this popular saying which goes this way **“ I'm not who you think I'm, I'm not who I think I'm, I'm who I think you think that I'm".**
What that quote simply means is that we build our identify based on people perception and that's kind of wild in some way if we actually think about it, but when you realize that you will become what people around you think of you and how they react to you and the only time you can really step out of such situations is when you start questioning yourself whether you can build yourself around your true self and that's when you can become who you are really and this is just a step towards being your true self.
You might not have been told this before but someone reaction towards you whether good or bad had nothing to do with you but has everything to do to what is happening internally of that person thinking good or bad about you.... You might be wondering what am I trying to explain in this paragraph and just read through I'm sure you will understand this after which I deeply explain this, I don't mean you can literally go out and be an asshole to every person you meet and always blaming them of everything happening when it's never their fault.... Is just like you punching someone and you became angry because they reacted back, don't be that kind of person. .............................................................................
Be a good person in every single thing you do and if you acting good in a place, you're being truthful to yourself and you're not trying to harm other people and other people reaction has nothing to do with you. You just have to step into the fullest truth version of yourself and not worry about others perception and here is the reason why; ..........................................
The reason is because you're not in control of other people's experiences, many people will not do what they want to do in life because they don't want to because they don't want to start anything up and they don't want to change anything and try to stay invisible that they don't roughen any feathers around them just because they don't want people to react to them in negative ways and sometimes even in positive ways and a person experience of you is completely dependent on how they view the world.
Every single person perceive the world differently, we all see the same thing but we are all seeing something different, just like we are all seeing the external world but we are still seeing something different based on our perception of the world based on the countless of our experiences. ...................................................
Let me give an example;
If you're a woman and you love this man and eventually you guys went on a date and all of a sudden, he becomes very distant and doesn't call and reply the way he does before, it might not be he is not interested in you and sometimes it might not be because of you but it might be because he has been cheated on several times in the past and his heart had been broken so many times and now he his resistant into getting into another relationship simply because he doesn't want to be hurt again and sometimes, he might not conciously know this.
So what happens is that if you're in this situation whereby you thought you supposed date is ghosting you and you kept on wondering what have you done wrong but in reality they start acting to you based on their countless experiences in their life and now they've turned it into a protection mechanism and sometimes they do this subconsciously.
Now finally to where I want to derive my point.... Their experience has nothing to do with you but has everything to do with the way they perceive the world and I'm sure this makes sense right now?.
I just feel it would be nice to stop here and this would allow you to go through yourself and think about things you do based on your experiences in life and not what you actually love to do.

Working through things you cannot change
Have you ever be so calm or loving or peaceful when things aren't going so well?
`Kindly check out my amazing sponsors, though it has gradually reduced due to the recent happenings on the platform`
Let me share some few stories where I was calm and after those incidents I was been question " why would I be so calm in that kind of situation?"..
..........................................................................................................................................................
When I was in secondary school, this strange event occurred after we had completed our waec and I had to travel home with some friends who lived just next to my street and there was traffic, and we had been stuck in it for more than 4 hours, and we were already late, when the cops pulled us over and dragged the bus driver out and they all asked everyone in the passenger seat to come down.
The atmosphere became extremely stressful, and the fact that it was late at night meant that anything could happen and everyone was terrified and screaming but I ended up being a terrifyingly calm person throughout the event, and I was terrified, but I realized I couldn't do anything at that point and more importantly I knew that all what the police men wanted was money and eventually they gave them the money and they finally let us go.
..........................................................................................................................................................
The second scenario involves my phone being stolen in our family's home during our grandfather's memorial service, which occurred since many people were present, including several touts on the street and this was because food was available and everyone was asking why I wasn't pissed off ... I was very enraged since I knew that getting a new phone would take time, but I kept my cool because there was nothing I could do in such a circumstance to get the phone back and what has been stolen has been stolen and what next is how I would get a new phone and be more careful about it for such incident not to happen again.
..........................................................................................................................................................
The third incident occurred while I was traveling to my state to write my first post-university entrance exam at the Federal University of Akure (FUTA), and while returning, we had an issue with another vehicle on the road and all of a sudden We noticed the motorist driving at a high speed and cursing each other, but unknowingly to us, the driver that drove by us was really waiting for us in front of a forest and all of a sudden we heard a stone hitting one of the passenger meanwhile he was aiming at our driver.
I was terrified, but I remained cool since it did not strike our driver, and if it had, we would all have died in the passenger seat because there was a sloppy field next to where the he parked, and I was thankful for my life because if the second driver's plan had come true, I wouldn't be writing this article now.
..........................................................................................................................................................
In all these three situations I was extremely calm and this was because of an idea and a phrase I learned that has really brainwashed myself into really understanding what I can't change.... And the phrase is from one of my grand pa story which he do tell and the phrase is “you can't change it".
The way he got this phrase was from a car accident right after which he bought his dream car back in his youth day and on the way home and he turn turtle his car... He could be pissed off about it, he could be sad about it or mad about it, he could be any form of emotional about it, but no matter any form of emotion he brings to the for front, he feels it won't change the circumstances....
That's the truth, since I'm not sure what emotions he's experiencing that would make the car feel the same way before the crash.
I couldn't change the circumstance because I was in the thick of it, and I don't think there was anything I could do to prevent it from happening, so the only thing I could do at the time was manage my reaction and this is because between stimulus and response there's space and in that space we have that power to choose our response and in that response lies our growth and free expression........ The stimulus was when the stone hit a passenger, and the response was when people started screaming and freaking out, and all I could do at the time was focus on remaining cool and it was my one last moment on earth, I would use it to appreciate everything I have and have gone through, including my hardships and successes.
We have complete control over how we feel in the moment, and how we respond to such an incident in a rush can often be fatal.

Random thoughts on football
Hey everyone, hope y'all are doing great, same read cash but different atmosphere and everything is changing quickly just as we all predicted
`I still have some fantastic sponsors kindly check them out`
I was basically thinking of what to write today and all of a sudden I just had this random thoughts of writing about football and some are questions actually and since it would be easier to do, I just had to do it...
1. Who will win the world cup 2022?
Five months to go still and we all have our predictions already and my top 3 are
England
France
Brazil
Currently the three are the most valuable national teams in the whole world and they have a market value of over €1 billion and I guess it's best to say that they are the favorites for the Qatar world cup 2022..... For my 4th pick I would definitely give it to **PORTUGAL** but I still don't think they can win anything under Fernando Santos who's their coach.
5th on my list would be **FLICK'S GERMANY** team, they are that kind of team that could hurt any opponents but I just think this year is too early and most of their players quality aren't like before and same probably go for **SPAIN** national team..... The ones we rarely talk about, **ARGENTINA**, Copa America winners and they also prooved their strengths again in the 3-0 win against Italy and they are on a good track to break the longest unbeaten ever streak for a national team, they might not have the top notch quality on paper but they are a well functioning team and I'm definitely sure they could be a threat at the world cup.
The two of my underdog picks are **DENMARK** which are constantly improving over the last years and Euros was amazing for them by reaching the semifinals, though I won't say they have one standout performer but they are really balanced team, where any position is basically filled with world class players.... My second underdog pick is the Afcon champion which is **SENEGAL** could as well be a threat and as we all know that African nations are currently rising and the winning mentality in that senegal squad is unmatchable and a of their starters are pretty much playing in Europa and UEFA champions league..
So these are my top list of favorite winners of the world cup winner in Qatar
England
France
Brazil
Portugal
Germany
Spain
Argentina
Denmark
Senegal
Croatia.
I hope read cash would still be active when the final is been played and if the winner is not on the list, you can freely come back and roast me but this is just a prediction and I'm aware Messi fans and cristiano Ronaldo fans won't be happy with this prediction but I'm also a big fan of both of them and to be fair I just think this is what is possible.

Give someone a reason why they should smile today....
Limitation are optional
All of the limitations we faced are just created by ourselves and they're not real.... Let me start up with a story that we could all relate to
Back in 1954, and this includes years before before that and when time wasn't even recorded and before time came in, for all human history they believed that it's not possible for someone to run a mile in under 4 minutes and years and years to come with everyone running a mile but never was there one person that could make it under 4 minutes.
They thought it was literally impossible, there were even speculations that doctors came out that if someone could run a mile in under 4 minutes, their heart will completely explode and for that reasons no one wanted to give it a try because of fear of getting their heart exploded.
There came a man named Roger Bannister, in 1954 he ran a mile in 3 minutes 59.4 seconds and he became the first man to ever run a mile in under 4 minutes and he showed everyone that running a mile under 4 minutes is very possible and when everyone saw it was actually possible, they started believing that if Roger can do it, why can't they do it..
What happened in this story was that people believed in what other people say and they never gave it a try and when Roger Bannister ran a mile under 4 minutes, within 2 years over of him doing that, over 300 people ran a mile under 4 minutes
Let me ask a question, is it under that 2 years after which Roger bannister ran a mile under 4 minutes that human just magically evolved?, or became faster? Or their lung breathe to a large capacity?, Did human change?...... The answer is NO, what changed is our perceived limitations , they had the ability the whole time but the problem was the belief of it not being possible was what held them back.
So think about that for a second... How many times have we held ourselves back because of perceived limitations? and how many times have we believed something because the person is on a white coat? And how many times have we listen to older people just because we have that belief that they are always right since they have more than enough experience than us?....
There is another example
Back then when humans do look into the sky and all they hope for is that they wish they could also fly but they also thought it was impossible at that time until the wright brothers prooved them all wrong.
People believed that putting a man in space is impossible until the Russian people put the very first person in space in 1961 named Yuri Gagarin
People said it was impossible to land on the moon until 1969 when Neil Armstrong prooved everyone all wrong.... So we actually successfully sent a rocket ship 238,000 miles away to a rock that's orbiting Earth approximately 2228 miles per hour and they were able to land on the moon and also take off and land back on earth safely.
That time technology was no way near or can't be compared to what we have now and you think you can't achieve your dreams?..... What does the 4 minutes mile, the wright brothers, Yuri Gagarin, Neil Armstrong all have in common?, It's only one thing: they were all impossible at first, and they stayed such until they were completed, at which point the unthinkable became possible.
What are you placing on yourself that you think is not possible?, What limit are you placing on yourself that's completely false?, What is the false narrative, the false conversation you're having in your head that you're telling yourself all day long as why you can't create the kind of life you want?, What is that perceived limitations you're placing on yourself?, Is it the fear of uncertainty?, Is it the fear of making mistakes?, Is it the fear of disappointing others and yourself?...Are the answers because you're scared of success or scared of failure because some people are actually scared of success because it looks as if the more successful you're, the more hardworking you will have to be.
All your limitations are false and they are never real and they will never, we only create them just because of our fear and if you want that life you want in the future and it's only you can compell yourself towards what you want to become.

Psychological reasons why change is so hard
Today's article is mainly to cover three psychological reasons why change is so hard for we humans and this would make a lot of sense with the way life is going right now and it seems the number of bad things happening has overtaken the good things happening... When you look at people at the right side and the left side politically, during the COVID time and so on but, basically I'm going to look at it through the political Stan point and through that lense, I'm sure it would make a lot of sense to you guys.
Before proceeding let me make it clear, I have no political affiliation that I go with, I'm not in the right or left but center might just be good enough and I just allow what politics do what it suppose to do and proceeding to why change is so hard by viewing through this political lenses..... With the psychology of politics, I'm going to give examples based on politics and this could be use for religion, politics,belief and all can be use for your favorite sport team to understand yourself.
You understanding the three psychology reasons I'm going to share, will make you really understand people at a very deep level and eventually start to notice things about yourself and people that you're close to like the people you work with, your loved ones and when you tell them about it, they would definitely be shocked but also accept that it's the truth and from there you would understand the psychology reason of them acting that way.
What this article would cover is how our brain works to be able to fit in to a certain group, so these are the 3 psychological reasons Change is hard for we human being
1. The term “Cognitive dissonance"
Cognitive dissonance is that we humans don't like inconsistency just like our ancestors hundred of thousands years ago would definitely be attacked by some animal while rumbling in the bush, we don't like inconsistency we like consistency, we like to know we are safe and also we like to know what we believe in is actually true and when anything appears inconsistent it appears as a threat to us and instantly we want to restore the consistency back and what we do is
We justify behavior or thoughts
We trivialize behavior or thoughts
Why do we need to resolve?.. like I said previously, we don't like inconsistency it makes us physically uncomfortable when you find something inconsistent with something you believe in and gradually it causes mentally and physically discomfort, so therefore we have to resolve it to make it perfectly consistent... So we want to know who we are and where we stand and someone that's on one side and said something to someone that's one the other side that threaten their beliefs, they must bring that down because it's causing cognitive dissonance.
If I believe in XYZ and someone else believe is ABC and the person comes in and told me what they believe in is true is definitely going to cause cognitive dissonance and **COGNITIVE** are things going on in my brain and **DISSONANCE** means things that are all over the place and I'm not able to rationalize like things that are not perfect or inconsistent here....so what we do at that point is definitely try to bring it down and trivialize it.
People have this idea of the love consistency, I got this from a book which I read a while ago called **influence by Robert Cialdini,** in a love consistency, we have an image of ourselves, the way we think about ourselves, the person we are with, the belief system that we have, what we think is right and what we think is wrong and we all have a self image to uphold and if somebody comes in and start to push our buttons and proof to us some actual truth of some faults in ourselves, in our belief system and that can really cause a lot of cognitive dissonance.
If you're on the left side and somebody from the right side comes to you and start to proof to you why this or that is wrong, it's going to cause cognitive dissonance and this is why you see so many people literally start to act like children when someone comes in and try to threaten their beliefs and because of that fact they are threatening their beliefs and they don't know how to react to it, they eventually get angry and still trying to proof that what they believe in is absolutely right even though it's wrong.
In a case when what they believe in is actually true all they do is to protect it with all their might.... If you think about all these I have been writing all this while, how often do we see it nowadays, when people even try to show you factually that what you're doing is wrong and instead of them to believe, all they do is to find a way or more useless facts for them to gain higher ground than the person correcting them.
Here is what we should do, we don't have to proof that someone is wrong for us to feel better, we just have to let people have their beliefs
This is a simple secret of life:
not everyone would have the same belief with you, and they won't and a lot of completely different beliefs and why does it have to matter when someone has different belief than yours.
There is something called partisanship, we humans want to feel like we are part of a group, a tribe... All of these are built into us and also we always want to fit in perfectly for every situation we love and also we always want to create an identity and what's iconic about partisanship is familiarity, and this is because familiarity is not easily distinguished from truth, if you hear something over and over again even if it's false, you would start to believe in it.
i'm really a big football fan and sometimes when I watch my favorite football team playing that's Manchester united and one our players made a rough tackle and clearly it was a rough tackle but because I'm a fan of Manchester united I would start justifying why that is not a foul but just a mere interception but if it was the other team tht made an interception, I would definitely be angry and start shouting that it was a clear foul and that's what is clearly happening in today's life, when something is clearly wrong but just because we are in that group we will definitely overlook it and give more reason why it's not wrong and I gradually notice that this is a modern day tribalism of me watching football game 😂😂😂, but I still don't care as long as my team keep winning.
We are all likely to agree with our group than to see the world correctly and that's the truth, we all have embrace our self awareness to take ourself back away from it.

Football, more than just a game
Football has been really doing great things both on the pitch and outside the pitch and it has gave people that hope that they had once lost and now they are better and also helping other people, We all know that a lot of football players have done amazing things and more of them are still doing it now with the likes of
SADIO MANE: helping his home country from where he grew up by build the social amenities which they don't have, the likes of school, hospital and buses to support people and there are more stories of his humanity off the football pitch.
MEMPHIS DEPAY: building a foundation to assist in helping the people of Ghana.
CRISTIANO RONALDO: He has done a lot off the pitch, like donating blood, helping children with serious medical condition and also establishment of schools in the middle east
MESUT OZIL: he established a charity organization which helps to advocate for human rights and one of the popular one which he did was when he won the world cup final with Germany, he donated all of his earnings to fund the surgery for different children.
LIONEL MESSI: An icon both on and off the pitch, he is the brand ambassador for UNICEF and he helps in building and renovating the social amenities in his country and some other part of different countries.
They've all been awesome but have you heard of the footballer that helped to stop a civil war in his home country?... His name is "**Didier Drogba",** in 2002 a civil war broke out in Côte D'Ivoire, which resulted in a rebel held north and a government held south. Most of the fighting ended in 2004, but tension started creeping up again in 2005.
Just when Côte D'Ivoire was qualifying for the world cup, against all odds, thy won and for the first time ever côte D'Ivoire would compete at the highest level of international football.... With celebrations high in the country and total jubilation, Didier Drogba spoke to the men and women of his home country of côte D'Ivoire saying;
Men and women of côte D'Ivoire, from north and south, center and west and he said they provided on pitch that they can all coexist and he promised the jubilation would unite his people of the ivorians and drogba and his whole teammates all knelt down and begged everyone to drop their weapons and let all of them have fun for the coming football matches rather than shooting.
Clips of the speech was played day and night on the television and eventually it brought both sides of north and south to the negotiating table and they both signed to cease fire.
But that wasn't the end of it, A year later while touring the rebel north of Cote D'Ivoire, Didier Drogba announced that the national team match against the country of Madagascar would be played in the rebel stronghold of Bouake which was supposed to be plaayed in Abidjan the economic capital.
This news stunned everyone and you most also keep in mind that Didier Drogba is from the south, so he really this in attempt to unite the nation. And you know what?, It actually worked out because on the day of the football match against Madagascar, everyone came out both the government, rebel and troops came to support Côte D'Ivoire football team and the violence became a thing of the past.
That wasn't the only good thing that happened that day, because Didier Drogba scored Côte D'Ivoire's final goal in the 5-0 trashing of Madagascar and this sparkles the celebration more across the country... Although the violence erupted once again but it was quickly dissolved.
Didier Drogba and his football teammates gave their nation the hope during its darkest hour and that was one of the best gift you can give a nation in what they think would consume them.

Go.... Just Go!!
Here is how life works, you have to put at work and get things done and this can done by not worrying and projecting things into future because life might be short but the journey in life is on a large and long road.... Thinking about your goals 10 years from now, that's a long way away and one of the disadvantage of thinking that far ahead is that, it can actually demotivate you in the moment because it feels so far away but if you work it backwards and live like you're at the headlights then you won't have paralysis by your analysis of what's coming in 10 years time.
Often people overthink everything they need to do, but in reality they just need to start a path or just pave a way and that's why this quote is popular **“journey of a thousand miles begins with a step" ....** If you think you're goals are too big and feel demotivated what might be happening is that you might be thinking of mile 1000 while you should be thinking about mile 1, when you take a step then you should think about next step because I don't see any reason you worrying about the 1000th step while you haven't taken the first one yet.
The explanation given about is the best way to describe the paralysis by analysis, overthinking sometimes makes us do nothing..... There are two things that set us back in taking actions when it involves our goals which are
**We make it bigger than actually how it is and way harder than actual**
**A lot of us has never actually done it before;** we humans like to look into the past for proof of stuffs we've done before but if you're on the path of doing what you haven't done before, you won't have any examples of it and that's when the feeling or thought of “i don't feel like I can do this" comes in action.
Let me give a great example of living your life in the headlights and if you get this, I'm sure you could understand my point
I live in Lagos and I wanted to travel to my friends house at night who lives at Ondo state, when I get into my car I'm definitely not going to see his house and approximately it could take me 3hra by driving to his house. We don't get to jump into our car at night to travel to a destination so far out Because we might get anxious and this is because everywhere is dark and can't see the entire route while travelling.
And when we can't see the entire route, we turn on the headlights and Because of this, we see the next 90-100ft ahead of us and we just drive those hundred feet and continuously as wee complete 100ft we face another 100ft and that's how it's when you're taking actions towards your goals and this is what explain living your life as headlights, you might not see the entire route but what matters is how you kept on moving in the direction of where you are going.
What should be on our mind Is, what do we need today to make us closer to our goals?...like today I was thinking of what to write to publish here on read.cash and I started thinking of what to write down and I notice myself getting caught up in all the stuffs I needed to do and for several hours I couldn't do anything and at some point I just told myself “what do I need to do now?" And few minutes later I found myself writing this article and that's how the topic came into reality, though the day is gone but at least I made a little progress.
It was kinda hard to get what I was writing together but as I kept on writing, every words and ideas begins to pop in and that's what's important to realize, is that you have to start in life and take action sometimes because that might be the motivation we need.... What we should do when we start overthinking sometimes is just take action and that's what I did today when we went out on the planned family outing I wrote about in the previous article, we finally got to the point I had to swim and being scared of water I started thinking about maybe I should do my workout first, or try some breathing exercise before I jump into the pool and suddenly I just said f**k it and I jumped into the pool, though I almost drown 😂😂.
What I noticed was that I knew was thinking more into the future and I just had to retify it by jumping into the pool and figure it out and that's how our life should be, too many people are out there planning and over planning and they are even planning to plan and they never for once take actions and in that process they keep themselves busy with their thoughts without being productive.
A lot of successful people are always ready to go and through the way they figure things out but the ones that are striving or struggling are the ones that don't want to go unless everything is perfect and they do series of researches just to avoid making errors and they fail to forget that mistakes are one of the routes to success because **"you can't figure out what you're supposed to do unless you figure out what you're not supposed to do"..... "You can't find yourself until you lost yourself"**

Life Is Amazing
Have you ever thought of how amazing life is and how incredible life experience is? Meanwhile we all just tend to take it for granted.... I hope I get to reframe your mindset in some sort of ways that would help you go through today with much more gratitude.
When I'm saying life is amazing, I don't mean life is perfect and definitely sometimes bad things happens, there's always things happening both good and bad, there's always have been good and bad happening.... What I'm trying to share is that how we are going to be living our life with more gratitude every single day.
At some point I was listening to a comedian and he explained how life is so amazing and we don't seem to be happy with it and he came with this ideology when he travelled by plane for the very first time and it was also the first time plane was having wifi connection.
Everyone was happy about this because you could travelled by plane for hours and still be connected to wifi and really that sounds amazing and he boarded the plane and about half way through their journey which was about 30 minutes, the wifi connection stops working.
The pilot was informed and they pleaded with everyone on board and they promised they would fix it before they landed and the guy next to the comedian was like “this is bullsh*t 🤬" and what's crazy about this guy ranting beside him was that, he was angry about something he didn't know existed 29 minutes ago and this was the first time planes were having wifi connections.
Have you ever gone to the airport to pick your relatives or some you know?... They are always like, being on the the airplane is the worst place to be..... When you try to pick them at the airport and you asked them how was their day and they would be like “it was such a long day and they had to bee on a plane for 7 hrs sitting down and doing nothing"...... After all these conversations I was like, do you guys even know how people travel before planes were invented and are they even aware that some people die while trying to travel to other countries back before planes were invented.
I also heard of a story that it takes over 30 years to travel from new York to Los Angeles back then and now with airplane it takes just 5hrs and people still complain that it's too long..... I haven't been on a plane before though but when I finally have the chance to be, I will definitely me like “wow this is really amazing because I'm sitting on a chair in the sky".
There's something about getting used to things and the more familiar we get towards anything the more we find or derive negativity around it and this is because human minds tends to turn negative...
Just like the phones we use today, where people say phones and technology are so addictive and it's screwing things up but the truth is that technology is not screwing anything up we human beings are the one screwing it up.... Just look at our phone and see how it has replaced so many things that we have to buy, before there use to be camera and also camcorder but now we have both on our phones, isn't that just amazing and now we can take pictures and take videos with just a device....
Our phones have replaced books, TV's, radio, calculators, voice recorder, gps, flash light, scanner, leveller, credit card, alarm clock, stop watch, notepad, calendar, gps, newspaper, even remote controller, game controller, car keys, and if all these are not impressive enough it possesses all kinds of knowledge a man has ever known through the internet but with all these people still adjust to the negative sides and say technology is so terrible which is cool though only if you're doing something wrong with it.
Life is so amazing because as time goes on the more impressive it becomes through technology changes, when you check what we humans have created in this world and from there it would be amazing..... We are not supposed to be addicted to it, you can become addicted to it because it's amazing but you're letting it be what it is and don't forget **“it's a great server but a terrible master"** and it's now up to you to decide whatever you want it to be.
Imagine back then, when you have to write letters to people and it takes over a week before they could get it and sometimes they might even be dead and you wouldn't know for over a week because there wasn't a easy mode to communicate but now within 2 seconds with your phone you can communicate with someone millions of miles away from here. If we look at the right side of the mirror on life, I'm sure we will appreciate how amazing this life is.
Think of your life, it might be great right now, good or managing whatever it might be, it's still amazing .... Have you ever wondered that our life right now is better than the life of queens and king 500 years ago, we have food, clothing's, water, shelter, and obviously we have couple if people that love us, though there's nothing bad in aiming for better and that's why we always want more of it though like having more clothes in the closet, having more cars in the garage, just take a second out of it and look how amazing things are and be grateful because life won't give you better things if you're not grateful for the ones you have now.

Truth be told
To be sincere, Since being introduced and accustomed to read.cash platform over the previous 9 months, it has become a part of my daily routine, a day is never complete without writing an article and most importantly interacting with other users on this platform and It's fun and interesting since I can express myself more freely and honestly here, and I can relate to the majority of the piece of wonderful articles over here by different users.
Truth be told, Just in case the platform doesn't pay anymore, I'm sure over 98% will stop writing articles because the payment is the major reason we write each day and even though it is fun coming up with different article each day, the truth be told, the biggest motivation comes from random rewarder tips, and I'm sure we can all agree on that right?.
Truth be told, i will always remember those friends I made over here with whom I didn't get to exchange contact information and to the ones that we may never meet and even though we meet someday, we might not recognize each other but just know I cherish those moments we had together on this platform and trust me when I say I love you all and that's the truth.
I have really learnt a lot on this platform read.cash, I get to enhance my writing talents, which I never thought I possessed before, as well as read.cash convinced me that it is feasible to make money online just by writing articles because this was this first platform I earned from and also I get to know more about different cultures of different countries and also thanks to @FarmGirl I get to see different and beautiful flowers I never thought existed and some adventures and I remembered when I was reading one of her article titled “**beauty thru the lens"** and it taught me that `“To enjoy nature's beauty, we don't need to be in the mountains, on the beach, or in the countryside. To notice them, we only need to retain an open mind and a grateful heart and They can be found around us".` This alone change my perspective on how I view my environment.
Truth be told, Thank you for all of your support, to those who i were friends with before we joined this platform, I might not be able to tell you this every single day but I wish I could because those supports really meant a lot to me, I wish I could tag you all, so people could know how awesome you guys are.
Truth be told, I'm hoping read.cash doesn't stop anytime from now because I'd like to stay on board and make a significant contribution to this incredible adventure with such a great group of people on this platform.....I remember writing my first article on this site like it was yesterday, but it's been more than 9 months, which demonstrates how great this platform is... I'm grateful for all the opportunities this platform has given me.
Truth be told, when I heard read.cash might be coming to an end, I was dumbfounded, and I was trying to figure out how I was going to get back to living my life without publishing articles each day anymore and I kept wondering if there was a platform comparable to read cash out there, but I don't believe there is because readcash is way easier for people to understand just by following the rules and regulations.

Égbére: The Bush Baby
This is an African myth, and if you are a descendant of the Yoruba tribe in Nigeria, you will be well pretty familiar with this myth, this is because we were told stories concerning the bush baby while we were much younger and it mostly been told at night which makes it more scarier and we tend to have nightmares after which the story have been told to us.... Also, if you watch Nollywood movies, particularly those set in village communities which involves the traditional cultures, you will be well familiar with it... In Yorubà the bush baby is referred to as Égberé.
`Kindly check out my awesome sponsors`
The bush baby, Stories and movies have this creature to be real and it is said that it only walks at night with a mat which it never sleeps on and this is because it's trying to protect this mat at all cost and that's where the big question comes in... Why is it protecting it?...... They said the mat can make someone wealthy overnight.
**So how can you become the owner of the mat, when this creature is always protecting it and never letting it out of its sight?**.... The only way to get the mat is to wrestle with the creature and if you win you become the owner of the mat but there's also a myth attached to wrestling this creature, which is if you wrestle you can't win no matter how powerful you're or the kind of weapon you use and there haven't been any proof that someone has defeated this creature before.
The second option is to steal the mat away from this creature while it's sleeping and that's the only possible way because it has been said that people have stolen its mat before and they became rich overnight but another myth is attached to stealing its mat which is after becoming rich overnight, this bush baby will always come back to you every night crying to you to give back its mat.
One crucial fact about this bush baby (égberé) is that it is extremely fast that you can't outrun it and the only possible way to stop it from capturing you is to pour sand that contains stones on the floor and this would make it stop because the bush baby will definitely want to count the stones in it and before it gets halfway in its counting, you should have escaped it although it's also very fast at counting.
People believed that unless you are spiritually powerful, you cannot perceive anything with your physical eyes and I have heard different stories of people encountering it and it's been said that they this creature won't hurt you if you don't try to hurt it and some says it's wicked.... Whatever the story is I'm sure it's real because I was told so.
**Have you heard of the bush baby before?**
**Can this be true?**

Perfectionism isn't real
Refusing to embrace the fact that no one is flawless may be leading you astray in ways that you maybe no longer productive, Perfectionism is not real and it doesn't exist and almost everyone thinks they are perfect. Perfectionism might be regard as a mask we wear to cover all our fears and this is because you're scared of being judge by others that are neither perfect.
It's s not that we don't want to be perfect but sometimes this feeling of not being good enough just appear from no where and sometimes you really want to put your heart somewhere or at something you really love doing but that feeling of rejection keeps holding you back and this is what leads to hiding behind this saying “well I'm just a perfectionist".
Let me give you an example: have you ever gone to a friend's house and discovered some great paintings and art and thought to yourself, "omg!! "Who did all of this?"....And the response was that he did everything and you questioned them why didn't I know you were good at painting.
Their response was that; `“it wasn't perfect and I don't want to receive any negative comments concerning it"` and you try to like motivate that friends with different ideas like, creating art show and posting it online so people can come over to see all these amazing work of yours and he responded that; `these aren't perfect yet and he wants it to be perfect before putting it out there in any social media.`
What's happening is that, he is just scared of being judged and scared of hearing negative opinions which might be damaging to their mental health.
The reason why perfectionism is affecting your productivity is that you are starting and also waiting for the perfect moment and `we all know that the perfect moment doesn't exist.` ..... You don't have to be a genius to be successful, if you want to be successful or you want to live that joyful life you aiming for, you just have to start.
One of the most crucial things we as humans forget is that we have the ability to master anything in our lives and you can also dedicate in knowing one thing and master it to be very good and through it we can achieve success, it's not necessary to pursue perfection... Whatever you want to do, now is the perfect time, from now until the minute you pass away and don't ever think there would be a golden seconds that would pop out from somewhere.
If you're willing to start now, just start and while you strive don't do it for perfection but for progress and try to get a little bit better each day.... You can't know wether you're going to be a successful business owner until you start one, you don't know whether you're going to be a successful artistic painter until you start painting, you can't know whether you will be a successful footballer untill you start playing football, this is because something done in a better way is better than pursuing perfection.
There's a reason why success is being regarded as 99% failure and this is because when you fail that's when you realize where the problem came from and from there you cross them out and never go back to it and step by step you become better and find out what works for you... But if you're pursuing perfectionism, you wouldn't want to mess up and because of this you also don't want to mess up and you also won't find what works out for you and gradually you become a failure.
Throughout your existence on earth, have you ever found the perfect tree, or the perfect animal or the perfect house, you can't simply because there's nothing as being perfect and what I would regard as being perfect is you being perfect in your imperfections “**doing something wrong is better than doing nothing"**
Happy new month 💐

Countless Testimonies
God has been so gracious to me in ways I can't even comprehend or explain, and even when I don't deserve it, he still comes for me; his love for me is unrivaled..... I've been blessed with some grace and love in recent years, and I honestly believe I'm an ungrateful person because, despite everything he's done for me, I still don't worship him as much as I'd like to and that's sign of an ungrateful person and with all these he still loves me.
`Kindly check out my awesome sponsors`
I would love to share some wonderful testimonies that God have been doing in my life and through that I know I'm blessed
**1. Sleeping In Good Health And Waking Up In Good Health**
We all underate this more than anything and for me, im grateful for this because no amount of money can purchase this and I'm getting it for free.
**2. Kitchen Incident**
To keep this short because there are a lot to share, this very day I came home late and tired because I had to take my cousin for jamb and the center was at ogba in Lagos Ikeja, exactly adjacent of excellent hotel, we went early but the exam didn't started at the exact time till late in the evening and we had to go home late and with the traffic we got home very late.
I had a spare key to open the door because my grandma was definitely sleeping and the first thing I did when I got home was cooking spaghetti and I had to warm the leftover stew and unfortunately I forgot to off the gas and I went to my room to eat.... I didn't know what made my grandma to wake up and fortunately she went to the kitchen and she saw the pot completely burn and we were lucky that the house didn't burn down and it can only be God.
**3. Thigh Injury**
I actually got this injury in my hostel while playing ball and this was caused by my friend quadri, I was one vs one with him and fortunately I dribbled past him and I was alone with the goal post and before I kicked the ball, he pushed me towards a broken table we used for table tennis.... At first I felt the injury but I didn't take it serious and I had to continue playing.
I actually didn't know the injury would get worse, until I got home and went for a football training just to get fit and I noticed anytime I squat I do feel this painful sensation in my thigh and it was on the same spot I had used to hit the broken table and I kept on with the squatting thinking it would get better and the next day I realized the spot has swollen up and I had to check it out from there I discovered it was a wood splinter and it was removed and I couldn't have imagined if I hadn't gone for a training session I wouldn't had known.
**4. Fighting Incident**
I had this friend that was suppose to go for trial but he doesn't know the place and since I have taken my cousin to that same location, so I told him I could take him there and since there was riot were he stays, he said we have to be back before 7 pm.... But unfortunately we are living in the city of Lagos, the city of traffic, it was already 8pm and we are still in the bus coming back home.
I knew it would be dangerous, since one of our family house was close to his street I offered him to sleep over there till morning though the riot was also happening in the same street which my family house was but I was certain some security there would obviously know me and unfortunately once again when we got to the street I didn't see any security and all I saw on the street was tout protecting the whole place.
I was stopped immediately I stepped into the gate and they wanted to hurt me and my friend instantly but they discovered we weren't with any weapon and I was trying to explain this is where I live and their response immediately was that we should live and I told them I can't as in the middle of the argument, those cult members started approaching from far and you could here them singing while approaching and immediately my heart was beating fast.... Before we knew we found ourselves in an uncompleted building and we literally saw the whole fight that day and what was also funny was that two guys ran into the same building we were hiding and they were begging us that they wanted to hide but one of them was seriously injured and I thought this could have been me and my friend.
`There are certain things we may have gotten away with without even realizing it, and there are some things that have happened to us but we actually survived it, Going out and coming in is not a common occurrence, and sleeping and waking up is never within our control...... There are several reasons for why we should be grateful, but we all choose to disregard them. Begin each day with the intention of being grateful.`

What's next
A lot have been unravelling lately and things that aren't happening for decades, things that are not supposed to be happening are in display currently in the world and the big question is “**What's Next?"**
People are scamming others at an alarming pace these days, and the majority of them have made it their profession and finally, they squander people's hard earned money extravagantly and without regret. They don't even consider what the person they defrauded is going through, all they care about is the money, and their so-called clients' lives are none of their concern.
People are getting missing every now and there, currently even the bike men are no longer safe, in a country where we have president and we don't have security that's a big shame, even the security we have, when they are called on for any related kidnapping issues before they respond the kidnappers are gone..... They do say we shouldn't take the law into our hands by killing the kidnappers that are caught and when we don't do that, the policemen arrest them and in the later months they are free because they have already bribed their way out of the prison.
Because of the recent attacks on schools, being a teacher now entails much more than simply teaching, Teachers are now trained to be ready to defend their students as well as themselves in the event of an assault..... Some people have become so accustomed to taking human life that when they wake up, all they can think about is how to make people's families cry over their children by murdering them and this is particularly tragic because the same people who take others's lives also have siblings or parents at home; therefore, where is their sense of morality?
Recently a man named David imoh, he was a sound engineer and he was killed at lekki in lagos by some Hausa tribe in Nigeria just because if 100 naira and that's 1/5 of a dollar, can you imagine how sad this sound?... 1/5 of a dollar that's about $0.20 and this is the average amount random rewarder gives for a visit and most times it's above that and when you tell such people about this platform to earn, they would ignore but they can take someone life over an amount which random rewarder can dash with just writing article.
We are all lamenting that there's problem everywhere meanwhile we are the cause of the problem... Just like read cash, we were told before joining the platform that no plagiarism but still yet people will still plagiarized and not knowing they were told this for their own good and after which their account has been spammed, they will still have the mind to say they didn't so anything wrong after the rules have been clearly stated no to plagiarism.
The election in our county is coming up soon, and while I have yet to receive my voter card, I do intend to vote this time because I want the best for my nation.... "Every vote counts," goes the popular phrase, but I don't believe it does in Nigeria because I'm definitely sure that the election is always manipulated someway or somehow... This week I heard a primary election was going on somewhere in Lagos Nigeria and they had to fight and some people lost their life and if primary election could be like this, how would the general election be like?... We don't know what's next in line for this country, only God knows.
What's next for the future president? Obviously, the first year will be difficult given how the economy is currently rendered destructed and disintegrated, the loans we have still to repay cannot be quantified, the level of insecurity is low, and it is just unpleasant and dreadful to live in this type of economy, though, one day, our country would be substantially and comparatively better again, and it would not be a five years or six years operation or project, but everything would be better on that day, which we do not yet know.

Goodness of knowledge
Happy Children's Day to everyone, since no matter how old you are, you are still child to your parents....... Actually today was awesome like it has always been, though I didn't do much today because Everyone left for the wake of one of our family members, so I spent the entire day with my cousins.
They were actually planning to go out on Sunday, like a family outing and what's funny is that I'm also planning with them and they all know I won't go but none of them brought it up, since it falls on Sunday I would just go to church and come back very late and by then they are all gone 😂😂... If it had been a movie outing, a game, or any other indoor activity, I would have preferred not to go to the beach at all because I have a fear of vast bodies of water, which they are unaware of.

***Concerning the knowledge***
**Do you all know that believe is a doubt?...** If it's not completely a doubt but to a certain percentage it has a little doubt attached to it and this is because “**you can't believe something and know it and also, we only believe in what we don't know"** have a good thought about this before proceeding in this wonderful knowledge I'm about to share, before you get lost in your thoughts.
If you're approached and asked do you believe you father and mother?, you will definitely be lost with that kind of question but if you're asked do you know your mother and father, I'm definitely sure you would say yes because you know that obviously....
Another question is, if you're asked do you believe you are a black man or an japanese or a white man?... We will all definitely say, we know we're black or white or whatsoever you might be and this answer definitely leads to a massive question which I have been seeking answers to for a while which is;
**“do we believe we are white or black or whatsoever our skin color, or do we know we're black or white or any other skin color".**
I would answer this using water and 3 different colors of bottle, imagining putting water into a transparent green, yellow and blue bottle, when you look at the bottle after which the water has been placed inside, what you will definitely see is the water in each bottles appearing as if it's green, yellow and blue and not the colorless for which water is, but you won't know they are the same until you taste them.
This also apply to we all, we are just spirit living in different color physical body, when you look with our physical eye, you're definitely not seeing our real self but only our bodies, We are all indoctrinated from birth to believe that we are whatever color you are, so what I'm trying to convey is that we are all the same.
`If I'm wrong in anyway, I'm open to correction... I was actually trying to relate it to the spirituality sides but I don't want to go astray so it's better I avoid it and then meet some spiritual leaders to get a better view on this.`

Creativity immersed into Thinking
Thinking is an indispensable tool and we are all aware of that... Before you can fully understand what creative thinking is, you have to analyze and understand what creativity is as well as thinking.
`What's creativity?`
Creativity is the ability or the process of seeing what other people around us see but the difference between you and those people around you is that you make connections and more meaning to those specific things.... In some aspect we can regard it as being the act of bringing something peculiar, mostly things that are in need into existence for betterment of the people.
`What's thinking?`
Thinking is all about identifying or seeking a workable solution to a problem or a situation which you find yourself, and while it may not be a perfect answer or ultimate complement or antidote you seek, it will improve things or pave the way for a better approach to deal with difficulties while solving them and in that way it makes life easier and better.
`Creativity and thinking are pretty much synonymous, and in order to be creative, you must be a good thinker and that's where creative thinking comes in.`
Creativity thinking is just collaboration of both creativity and thinking and for you to be a creative thinker, one must possess quality of being creativity and also a good thinker and being a creative thinker means you're able to seek answers for a questions by the power of your imagination and reasoning.... One thing is important about being a creative thinker which is **“you being able to understand that we are in a dynamic world which is fast changing and that means our problems are also dynamic and never static therefore our solutions and answers must also be dynamic".**
You can be motivated to be a creative thinker at whatever faculty you find yourself and being motivated is all about you being capable to participate in any tasks or project for it's challenge or complexity and also the enjoyment of doing it.
`People routinely ask, "If a person is a creative thinker, how can they make things better?" and also, how can they make better products?"` And These are generally inquiries from students who are part time and full time entrepreneurs.
**In making making things better**, we must understand that we are making it more convenient for users as well as giving them comfort while using whatever we tend to make better and not to exclude the increase in the high rate of productivity and the returns on it should be massively positive.
**While in making better things,** this involves making different alternatives and different production processes and this is mostly where creative thinking is needed because you have to make findings on products that are in scarcity and are needed, the problems attached to the product and probable solution you can find and finally making your acceptance finding before involving in the development of such products.
Being creative in your thoughts makes you innovative and that's makes you bring your creative idea into reality and truly creative thinking compensate innovation because you can't be innovative without being a creative thinker, being innovative makes you create imaginative idea and knowledge which in return becomes value and that means
Creativity+ thinking= creative thinker
Creative thinker= innovation
Innovation= value
Therefore, creative thinker=value
**Make your life valuable**.

Wednesday wedded to drawing
Tuesday was quite stressful as usual and I couldn't keep up with the pace of what happened yesterday and before I knew I slept very early because I was really stressed out..
On Sunday, we were basically chatting on WhatsApp in a group primarily for guys in the hostel where I stay while attending school, I was pretty thrilled at the time because we were basically reliving some hilarious times we had together before the Asuu break and for me I keep track of all their embarrassing photos and shared them with the group, confident that the majority of them would be surprised to learn that I have photos of them that they don't have.
There's always one person whose picture I can't share since he already has mine, so we agreed to keep the photos and movies exclusive 😂😂 while the conversation was going up, one of our friends whose name was Denzel asked whether anyone of us can draw? and it's urgent........ I wasn't sure whether I was up to any drawing tasks because it had been a long since I last drew, but he didn't have any, so I told him I'd give it a shot.
Few moments later, He then presented me a **great goat nft** picture which was like this;
and guided me to draw something similar, but this time it had to be distinct and include some specimens and ***my response was that I could attempt to draw this but do not expect perfection***.... I gave it a shot, and this is what I came up with for my first trial;
Though this part wasn't bold the way I wanted it and I made some mistakes which I would correct in the next trial..... I continued with my normal routine for the day and when I finally came back from our family house and my cousins weren't around and that was a perfect time to complete the drawing and I actually did so without procrastinating, This is the bolder one;
My phone camera is not that good and this is the best it can bring out... Though the picture was better in paper than it looks in this picture.... After which I was done with my drawings I didn't expect I was still good even if I wasn't perfect but on a scale of 1 to 10, I will give myself 5 👀.
I was glad I drew this because I was exhausted all weekend and didn't do anything productive except stare at my television while watching the season's final game in English premier league and Seria A in Italy, though I wouldn't regard it as completely unproductive because I was able to write article throughout the weekends and that for me Is being productive.
It was nice to review about my day; I didn't cover everything, but I made sure I addressed the important ones, hope you enjoyed reading this...

This too shall pass
Have you ever wondered why nothing seems to persist indefinite period of time?, both the good and the pretty odd ones... This life is full of adventure, regardless of whether your path is enjoyable, miserable, or corrupted; whichever you live your life, this too shall pass.
Have you ever been on top the world at some point in your life and it looks like nothing is stopping you or nothing will ever bring you down, what do you noticed about that feeling after days have passed, didn't you noticed that the feelings have all passed away?.... All your feelings too shall pass.
We all have shared awesome memories with a particular person and now that particular person is now part of past memories, at some we wished the kid aspect of our lives lasted forever because of how fun and less stressed it was, but one thing is sure, this too shall pass.... From childhood through adulthood to death, life is divided into stages, each of which shall pass before another can begin, and this specific stage must likewise Shall also pass.
I know we all have exes ( former spouse or girlfriend whatever we might regard it to be or best friends). At some certain point, you all promised each other love that would last forever and you all thought, the love would last forever and this is because of the affections you have for each other and that has covered you both mentally and guess what?.. just like everything the love too Shall pass and that has happened and if you haven't experience it before just know that one day the love too shall pass.
If you're angry, you're pissed off, you feel great, you feel awesome, whatever way you might describe how you feel, and if truly you think you can't feel good about yourself anymore, all these too shall pass.... One day the beautiful part will resurface and the sun will shine on you again but don't you forget that one day this too shall pass.
In football, there was a period when Maradona and Pepe were the statically and physically the best, and guess what, their time has passed as well. same with those that came after them and now we are in the era or Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi and we are all aware that soon this too shall pass and the following talents that would come after them.
Whatever you're going through, you are going to be okay, whatever it is that's hurting you and it won't probably happen overnight... Don't judge your life based on where you're at the moment, you have survived over 100% of the troubles you've faced till this moments and that's the reason you're alive to see today and this should ring a bell to your head that all things shall pass.
Time is our ally, so you won't regret saying I wish I had known this too shall pass... One day you will look behind and around you and suddenly you will realize that everything you thought would last forever, whatever it might be and they are all in the past now and you will understand that truly everything is time related and they will all pass.
There's a reason why energy is defined as work done in relative to time, so for you to achieve success work must be done and you also don't have to stagnant at one position because nothing will be done in that position since energy is measured by motion and you need to be in motion for work to be done.... While waiting for everything to pass, make sure you're working and doing your best while your adversities, challenges, pains are all passing away.
We don't know whether the rumors are real or not, but they have surfaced, that read.cash is coming to an end soon, though it's not confirmed yet but one day definitely it shall pass too..... Life itself is not going to be here forever, as long as you're a living thing you too shall pass, sooner or later is just a matter of time.
***Remember, everything is time related and one day it shall pass too***.

The difference in you
We all know this for a fact that “**Lion Is The King Of The Jungle"** but come to think of it, The lion is not the biggest; the bigger the animal, the scarier it becomes and the elephant is the biggest, The lion is not the fastest; the faster the animal, the harder it becomes to escape from it and obviously the cheetah is the fastest, and definitely it's not the smartest and not the tallest in the jungle because giraffe is the tallest and lastly lion is not the most aggressive animal in the Jungle because the buffalo's and hippopotamus are the the aggressors, all this qualities should be in possession of the king of jungle right?.
The questions that follows this is how does the lion becomes the king of the jungle without being the biggest, fastest, tallest or the smartest?... Obviously it's the lion's mentality and that's the only difference between the lion and other animals, when lion walks up and see buffalo which is one of the one of the most aggressive animal and their pack are fearsome, the lion only thinks of lunch but the buffalos thinks of running and that's why mental strength is powerful.
Have you ever wondered why those that dropped out of school because those that are really making actual decisions concerning the earth will live on right now?... It It's essentially their mindset, and they don't want to be a prisoner to the culture that has been passed down through centuries that before they can be successful, they must first go to school, and success in this context implies operating for someone else and getting paid weekly or monthly.
In today's world we see a lot of people creating generational wealth and some are in possession of such wealth already, but they are never the smartest or the wisest one, so how could they be in possession of such, it's absolutely their positive mindset and mentality, they are getting things done because they have actually seen themselves doing that already.
In the school aspect same thing also applies, you don't have to possess the aspect of being smartest , tallest, most handsome, the calmest in the class before you can be the leader of the class, your character traits and the way you relate to others and most especially your mentality is all that's needed to be a better leader.
There is no feature of your personality that guarantees you outstanding progress in life; only your mentality distinguishes you from others, mentality like
You're thinking about how to fix difficulties whereas others are thinking about how to avoid them.
When others are afraid to move further, you are willing to take the risk while also considering the potential benefits.
When you understand that nothing lasts forever, you will be more willing to confront any obstacles that may arise.
***We may not have everything, but I'm confident we each have something special to offer, therefore make it count in your life.***

What if?
**What if we are just living by our thoughts?**.... Imagine that whatever we've done or are doing is because we've considered it at some point, and whatever we accomplish is because we've anticipated we've accomplished it and if that's how life works out, in such a way that we live by our thoughts, I believe we will all be optimistic about our thoughts and disregard everything that is negative.
**what if I could invite 4 famous people people to dinner, who would I choose and why?....**
1 and 2 will definitely be cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel messi and reason is because I'm a big fan of what they do in football and what they do outside of football, and they are in my opinion, the greatest footballer ever in whatever manner you can characterize how brilliant a footballer can be.
number 3 is surely Travis Greene, Those who know him know he's a fantastic singer, and I know his lyrics by heart. I love listening to him because his songs remind me of what I need to say to God and also there's there's also this beautiful sensation I receive when I listen to his sermons.
number 4 is definitely my celebrity crush Justine Skye... If you want to explain beauty, I think Justine Skye is the kind of person who complements beauty, I can't stop glancing at her images because she's so gorgeous and absolutely stunning... So inviting her over would be incredible.
**what if I could be an Olympic athlete, what sport would i compete in?....**this is actually easy, I would definitely be a footballer or a cyclist because I'm good at both but if it's just come to an individual athlete I would pick cyclist alone and all I will have to do, is to just work on my endurance and stability before the qualifications and that's all I need... though it's no easy but I'm very good at it.
**What if death is just another dimension of we doing the opposite of what we are doing?...** For some reason, I don't believe this will be exciting, but I think it will be amazing in another way because I get to show off my extroverted side to the world.
**what if I had to pick one person to be with forever?..** This is kind of hard though but if it's possible I would love to be a clone of myself and he has to be exactly like me and knows everything about me... I think that would be fantastic that means I wouldn't get bored because he already knows what to cheer me up.
**What if I had the chance to say a sentence to the whole world, what would I say?...** I would definitely tell them to invest in Bitcoin cash and In that way everyone will definitely want to know more about it and obviously they would see the importance and surely they would definitely invest a lot in it and therefore the price will gradually pump.
**What if I could own a pet, what per would I go for?....**I don't think I'll want a pet right now because I already have one, a dog named Kujo who is a boerboel breed, and it causes me a lot of worry from feeding it, taking it to the vet, and caring for it, and I don't have the stress to give in to any pet right now..
**What if I'm the president of my country for a day?...** When I was younger, I always seemed to ask my friends this certain questions, and the majority of their responses were that they would get away with a large sum of money, which would be enough to support the subsequent generation and sincerely I wasn't mad at them because that's what are leaders are basically doing right now and they grew up learning it from them.... For me I know I won't be able to help everyone in one day, but for the brief duration which I possess power and authority, I will utilize it for the right purposes in the right places just for the betterment of the citizens Lives.
**What if I had the chance to be exactly like any footballer?...** The question here is so easy because it will definitely be Cristiano Ronaldo and this is not only because I'm a big fan but because he is one of the greatest footballer in the history of the sport and in the modelling aspect he is handsome and we'll fit, so I'm definitely going for him.
