REALITY. • Easy is to judge the mistakes of others, Difficult is to recognize our own mistakes. • Easy is to hurt someone who loves you, Difficult is to heal the wound. • Easy is to set rules, Difficult is to follow them. • Easy is to dream every night, Difficult is to fight for a dream. • Easy is to say we love, Difficult is to show it every day. • Easy is to make mistakes, Difficult is to learn from them.

Love yourself before being in love. Know yourself before knowing others. Be happy before making others happy. Sacrifice isn't about giving what you don't have, it's about giving up what you have to others. So sacrifice what you have not what you wish you had!

Man Vs Robots It has been predicted that robots will replace over 20 million jobs by 2030. (BBC). How can this be possible? Meet Pepper, a semi-humanoid robot developed in 2014 by a Japanese company, SoftBank Robotics. This robot can read emotions through facial expressions and voice tone. Pepper is currently being used as a receptionist at several offices in developed countries - Medical facilities, airports, banks, restaurants, schools, homes etc. Pepper is so advanced that it can chat autonomously with visitors, organise meetings, send emails, arrange for drinks to be made etc. The future is already here, what are you doing about it?

Decide to be happy by leaving behind you every weighty loads of fear, depression and stresses in your life! You don't need them! They should be of the past now! They are inconsequential to your future! Examine yourself consciously and deliberately begin to focus on the positive and on what you can do now to release that which had been depreciating the real worth of you! Keep your eyes open, your head up and your mind activated by the things that make you happy. Live your life from the inner disposition of your positive thoughts and feelings because the bigger you Awaits you!

If you do nothing, today, but dwelling on yesterday, you will more likely spend more time, tomorrow, dwelling on today too. This loop won't stop until you act. So stop dwelling and DO something.

"The more you have the more empty you will feel." This quote has a great message in that we should stop being materialistic and focus on better things in life, spending money on the ones who matter to us, filling their lives and helping the needy. We won't need our money in the afterlife so why keep it if we are not using it. Or even worse, why spend it on things we won't use?

Bitcoin had a nice recovery from 10K support it did dip below 10K support, but bulls sent it back above 10K.
@Jeffsmith
The more you see yourself as what you'd like to become, and act as if what you want is already there, the more you'll activate those dormant forces that will collaborate to transform your dream into your reality. Goodnight guys
@Jeffsmith

How to Build a Personal Brand Most people will tell you to start a business or build another source of income if you want to be financially free. But I’ll tell you, starting a business is not enough. You need to add the knowledge of branding to it. **Why Personal Branding?** Today, many people have started businesses which they are promoting online. Thanks to social media which has made everything easy. According to Statisica.com, there are 4.57billion active internet users as of July 2020. This is 59% of the global population. The challenge is that most of these people are trying to sell something online. There are so many sellers trying to catch the attention of buyers. There are billions of people trying to sell or promote the same thing you are promoting at the same time. This is why you have to find a way to be special, unique or different. Branding is what differentiates you from other people and makes you get seen more and faster. There are two arms of branding 1. Personal Branding & 2. Corporate Personal branding is about **YOU** as a person while corporate branding is about **THE COMPANY or BUSINESS**. One is human, the other is not. This article is all about personal branding. **What is Personal Branding?** Personal branding means **self-promotion**. Personal branding is the practice of marketing yourself by promoting your unique set of skills, expertise, experience and personality. Personal branding goes beyond logos & colours. It is that deep connection people have with you. **It is how you make them feel.** Until your brand connects with the emotions of your audience and customers you don’t have a brand. **Reasons Why You Should Brand Yourself** These days, people want to relate to humans and not some faceless companies. This is why the progress of many brands is tied to their owners or admin heads. For Instance, when you hear **Bill Gates, You think Microsoft**, when you hear **Jeff Bezos, you think Amazon**, and when you hear **Wole Soyinka, you think Literature.** •Personal branding **builds trust & credibility** •Personal branding **makes you attractive to clients** •Personal branding **lets you work with quality clients** •Personal branding **increases your asking price** People will be glad to pay you what you ask for because they hold you and your service in high esteem. Take a look at the photo below. Note that it’s the same shoe but what makes the difference is branding. People will pay you what they think you deserve. In life and business, people will not pay you what you want; they’ll pay you what you are worth. •Personal branding builds a bigger and better network (that is, high volume of sales/constant client). **Steps to Building a Personal Brand** **Be purposeful** Why you doing and what are you doing? Are you doing it for passion or for the money? The only way to be in business long enough to survive in it, is to do what you have passion for. **Make your message clear** Why are you giving this message or selling this product? If you can’t tell **why**, people may not know why they should buy from you. You are the first ambassador of your brand. People should see how good your product is by just looking at you. For instance, you can’t have pimples, eczema and rashes all over your face while you are trying to convince another to buy your facial cleansing products. Be the message you preach. Be the conviction customers need before they patronize you. **Know your audience** Who is your message/product meant for? Where are they? What do they do? What do they want? Find out where they are, go there and sell to them. Some people keep posting products online for people who may never buy from them. Narrow down your marketing efforts to target your potential customers. Instead, build a broadcast list of those who need and can afford your product. **Be authentic** How real are you with your message or product? With time, customers and audience will know who is real or not. **Look Good** How do you want to be seen in public? Remember, people will first buy you before buying whatever you are selling. *“The way you dress is the way you will be addressed.”* Be intentional with your appearance. Make statement with your appearance. Dress how you want to be addressed. **Be sociable** Communication is important when it comes to relationships. It’s not only about what you say, but how you say it. Some people have been able to attract more patronage just by being friendly. Meanwhile, I know others who are always frowning at customers. Finally, you are your business and your business is you. Whatever you do affects your business. People will trust you first as a person before trusting your business. In whatever you do, you need to give your business a human face, and that human is you. Your business will perform 10 times better if you brand yourself and start promoting yourself along your business. Remember people want to connect with a human being, not a faceless company.

"Most of us we wait for best time, good opportunity, right amount of capital to start. We live in what Brian Tracy call "someday island". We say things like, Someday I will start my own business etc. However,to achieve success we must have a crystal clear understanding of what we want and have a burning desire, a strong WHY which will inspire us. Let us be vigilant in seizing on opportunity. Don't wait for extraordinary opportunities-seize common occasions and make them great."

Repetition Or Repeating Something Many Times Is Known To Break Or Make A Habit And the best Example I Can Give you guys is Music... The First Time You Hear A song You Don't Know The Lyrics So You Google The Lyrics And Sing The Song While Reading the lyrics And You Do That Everyday at least once a day And After Some time you will not need to read the lyrics or listen to the song in order to sing the song and this method can be applied in anything. Good morning guys
@Jeffsmith
I advise you to not hide your feelings, don’t pretend to be okay when you’re not okay, don’t pretend to be happy when you’re sad, it’ll only lead to your misery. People always leave. Don’t get too attached. Some people just don’t deserve you. They aren’t ready for your level of loyalty or love. You have to remember that not everyone was raised like you. Not everyone has a pure heart or good intentions like you. And not everyone has your best interest and wants to see you succeed.’ Just CarryOn
@Jeffsmith
When someone tries to trigger you by insulting you or by doing or saying something that irritates you, take a deep breath and switch off your ego. Remember that if you are easily offended, you are easily manipulated.
@Jeffsmith
Fall in love with someone who wants you, who waits for you. who understands you even in the madness; someone who helps you, and guides you, someone who is your support, your hope. fall in love with someone who talks with you after a fight. Fall in love with someone who misses you and wants to be with you. Do not fall in love only with a body or with a face; or with the idea of being in love.

"Make an effort to achieve success! Decide to make a serious attempt to live out your purpose in life. You need to do something great and exceptional with all the motivational articles, books, videos, audios you read, watch and listen to everyday. Doing all these things and not achieving success is like entering a jewel mine and coming out with empty hands. Take action! Let all the words you have been hearing and reading begin to push you to live a purposeful life. Do not be the hearer and reader only. Be the doer! Let the words help you to discover your talent and what gives you satisfaction and fulfillment when you do it. Let them push you to make a serious attempt to live out your dream in life. Know that no one is going to push you to do something either small or great in life. You've got to stand in for yourself. You've got to envision greatness and pursue it with all your power. Make an effort now! You deserve success."

You can do it if you believe you can. It’s called a “self-fulfilling prophecy” when something occurs because we believe it will. The mind is constructed so that it constantly seeks to bring into physical reality the things it thinks about most. Most of us will never realize the tremendous potential we possess — because we are unwilling to believe that we can accomplish things that others believe are impossible. “Impossible” jobs require more effort and greater concentration, but when they are completed, the rewards — both financial and psychic — are commensurate with the effort required. You may not be able to achieve everything you’d like, but you won’t accomplish anything unless you believe you can.📚📚📚 Enjoy reading always and all the ways.. Stay safe and stay healthy📚📚📚

The only bird that dares to peck at an eagle is the crow. He sits on his back and bites his neck. However, the eagle does not respond, nor fight back with the crow. It doesn't waste time or energy on the crow! It simply opens its wings and begins to rise higher in the skies. The higher the flight, the harder it is for the crow to breathe and then the crow drops down as it’s not capable to fly that high. Stop wasting your time with the crows. Just take them to your heights and they'll fade.

The bottom is too crowded so strive not to be at the bottom. Because at the bottom there is no fresh air nor peace. It is the only place where you have all the problems each day you wake up. When you are at the top you are a icon everyone looks upon you, look at the skyscrapers they can always be seen from far and everyone one wants to climb them. Even the mountains like Everest they are an icon. Always strive to be the head and not the tail. The head will always lead the tail hence strive to lead. Success begins with you go for it and always let this be you slogan "smile and silence. Have success-filled day 💕💕❤️🤗

Please don’t feel discouraged just because you are slightly behind. Life isn’t a hundred-meter race against your friends, but a lifelong marathon against yourself. Rather than focusing on getting ahead of your friends, first try to discover your unique color.

The Net Academy I remember when taxi drivers used to wait in their parks for passengers to come to them. They lived as gods and charged whatever they wanted. I remember when one of them insisted that I should pay N3500 for a journey that was less than 2 kilometres. They could decide to cancel your order and refund your money if you pissed them off. Although their cars were old and rickety, they still did shakara on top. Then Bolt, Taxify, Uber and the likes of them came on board and digitized the process of cab-hailing. The taxi drivers in the park ran out of business as people could book better rides, at cheaper rates, without stress, right from their mobile phones. This is what happens when you fail to evolve with trends in your industry. Technology has come to stay and it will keep introducing easier ways of doing things. So be open to new knowledge and strive to be better than you were yesterday. The world is moving, so should you. Do not be left behind. You need the latest skills, tips and tricks in your field to keep being relevant. The future generation is counting on the decisions you will make today. Don't fail them! This is why we are hosting this free training on HOW TO BUILD A PERSONAL BRAND. Invite your friends to join. bit.ly/TheNetRoom Have a blessed week ahead!

As You Grow Older, You Will Realize That It Is More Important To Be Loved By Few Than To Be Liked By All. You Don’t Need A Great Number Of People. You Just Need To Be Surrounded By Good And Genuine People.

Positive Thinking Positive thinking isn’t magic and it won’t make all of your problems disappear at once, and it also doesn’t mean that you keep your head deep in the sand and ignore life’s unpleasant situations. What it will do is make your problems seem more manageable and help you approach hardships in a more positive way. It’s like having this thought and feeling that something best is going to happen. Positive thinking can lead to a lot of positive change in your life. It can take your life to the next level. But sometimes, certain situations arise in life that makes it hard to keep a positive outlook. You need to train yourself to adopt a positive mindset and you’ll reap the biggest benefit. Positive thinking is a mental and emotional attitude that centers on positivity or the good and expects result that will benefit you. It’s about being optimistic. It is important to have a positive mindset. Positive thinking can create real value in your life and help you build skills that last much longer than a smile. It can improve your mood, give you more confidence, and can reduce the odds of developing conditions like depression and stress-related disorders. So in general positive thinking is good for your health. Avoid negative thinking. Let me give an example of negative thinking. Let’s say you were meant to have an evening out with your friends, but later you heard that it is canceled, and then you assumed that the change in plans is because no one wanted to be around you. That’s a negative thinking. Negative thinking comes with negative emotions like fear, anger, stress, and so on. It prevents your brain from seeing other options around you. Positive thinking shows emotions like joy, contentment, love and so on. Positive thinking widens your sense of possibility and opens your mind up your mind to more options. **You can learn to build positive thinking in your life by** •**Practice positive self-talk:** Self-talk are the things you mentally tell yourself. It’s like an inner voice inside your mind that interacts with the world around you and examines how you perform. Positive self-talk increases your self-esteem. Always say good things yourself. Don’t say anything to yourself that you won’t say to anyone else. •**Adjust your mindset:** If your mindset is poor, everything around you is going to seem worse because your mindset control your thoughts, and how you feel and react. You need to cultivate a mindset that is grateful and open. Focus on positive moments in your life. •**Be open to humor:** Allow yourself to smile or laugh during darkest or difficult situations. •**Surround yourself with positive people:** When you surround yourself with positive people, their positive words will affect your line of thinking. Make sure the people in your life are positive and supportive. Please don't forget to subscribe, like and comment. Thank You❤

It's really comfortable when you start loving yourself enough. You stop settling for less. You stop forcing yourself to do something you don't want to. You stop being with someone who makes you feel bad. You stop comparing yourself to anyone or anything around. You become a whole kingdom yourself. https://read.cash/@Jeffsmith/self-love-df20180f

We Are All Meant To Experience Pain, There's No Such An Exception When It Comes On It, But It Doesn't Mean That You Have To Take It As Your Daily Experience. You Are Claimed To Grow As A Person After Getting Hurt. Take Those Experiences As Your Lessons To Stand Stronger After The Downfall.

Self-Love Self-love simply means loving yourself. It is a state of appreciation for oneself that builds from actions that helps our psychological, physical and spiritual growth. Self-love means valuing yourself and not sacrificing your well-being to please others. Self-love means having a high regard for your own well-being and happiness. Did you know that you’re very special? You deserve to feel loved not only by people around you, but by **YOU**. “You have to love yourself more.” “You can’t love another person until you love yourself first.” Self-love is important to living well. Lately we are faced with several challenges which make it challenging for some of us to practice self-love. But you just need to get in touch with yourself, your well-being, and happiness. We practice self-love so that we can push through limited beliefs, accept much better our weaknesses as well as our strengths, and have a life that truly shines. **Ways to Practice Self-love** •**Self-care**: Practice self-care. You will love yourself when you take better care of your needs like eating healthy, intimacy, proper sleep, exercise, and social interactions. •**Be Mindful**: You need to be mindful of who you are. Know how you think, feel, and want. Know yourself. Live your life in ways that truly reflect this. •**Protect yourself**: Surround yourself with people who love and encourage you. Get rid of people who take pleasure in your pain and loss rather than your happiness and success. End toxic relationship. •**Prioritize yourself**: There is no one on this planet like you, so stop comparing yourself to someone else. Know that you are way important and special. Embrace the thing that makes you different. •Learn not to compromise yourself. Learn to say **NO**. Saying **NO** sometimes doesn’t make you a bad person. It means you are smart. •**Forgive yourself**: There are people that let what they did in the past, make them feel bad or hate themselves. Don’t be too hard on yourself. You can’t change the thing you’ve done in the past but you can learn from them and believe in your ability to change. It’s time to let the past go and move on. These are few ways you can practice self-love. Try working on some of the actions stated above, it will help you begin to accept and love yourself more. Please subscribe, like and comment.
