Good morning guys. How are you doing today? I trust that you're having a great day. How was your Monday too?
Yesterday, I wrote on the importance of time management, how bad mismanagement of time has caused and will still cause problems for its victims.
One of the comments on the article was about the idea of African time. This African time idea has really eaten deep into people, such that when an event is slated to start let's say 12pm, we put our additional 1hr30mins. This concept is very common in 90 percent of Nigerian activities.
Even if you say you won't be affected by that mentality and you choose to at the right time, you'll find out that even the organizers are not ready to commence the event because they've not finished setting up.
I'm also guilty of this African time thing and I'm sure 99 percent of Nigerians are also guilty. I just hope that this narrative changes so that people can begin to understand the value of time.
To the subject of today's article. Before I continue on today's article, I'll like to thank some special people; Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.
Here are my amazing sponsors.
Please check them out now.The subject on mind to write about this morning is something that I've seen people guilty of. What is this thing? It is being unnecessarily mean and harsh to people.
This is very rampant now. Everybody has become harsh and hard at everyone without reasons. This is even something very rampant in my country Nigeria, most especially Lagos.
It is understandable that the economy is hard and that everyone is facing one thing or the other. Still, it isn't right to be harsh at anyone you meet. We understand that the country has made everything hard for people. In all this, you can still be nice to people.
Not everyone moving on the road is okay, some are at the verge of giving up on life. As much as it is left for people to decide whether to keep pushing or to give up on life, you can either be a source of inspiration or a channel through which the disappointment and pain in the heart of someone increases.
Someone might be smiling and laughing with you, meanwhile so much is going on that person's mind. That a person dresses well doesn't mean he has everything figured out. Life has not been fair to some people such that they think everyone and everything has been designed to work against them. You should not find yourself contributing to another person's depression.
Some people are also suffering from low self esteem. Some people feel they've been rejected by everyone. If you are harsh against such people, you're adding to the problem they have already.
Although, I've also been guilty of this. I've learnt to be nice to people. You too can be nice to people. You don't have to know them to be nice with them. Try within your possible best to at least put a smile on the next person. You might be the reason someone will keep pushing on.
This is it for today. Thanks for reading through. Bye for now. Till tomorrow by God's grace.
Being kind is what people badly needed as of today. We don't know what that certain people are up to. Your small kindness will surely make their day.
