WHAT WILL BE, WILL NOT BE✊

  Hey guys, following the recent killings and pandemonium in the country, for the past few weeks or more, the state of things in the country have been taxing from #EndSARS✊ protest to #EndSWAT to #Endpolicebrutality and here we are #Endbadgovernance and #Lekkimassacre. And in one way or the other everyone's mental health has been affected. In time some people have said "what will be, will be" hey you,👀 yes you in particular 👉👈  what will be, will not and never be. Ask me why?? 

Apparently, we have not really had it so smooth since independence in 1960 but then, no nation ever really has it smooth. The most developed nations of the world today equally had their difficult times but they were resolute and focused on their preferred destination. Every Nigerian really has a role to play in moving the nation forward especially in the last few weeks There is no point in passing the buck. We should stop the blame game. We must all have a rethink about the future of our nation. 

Politics, religion and ethnicity should not be used as platforms to divide us. We cannot be the people and the generation that gave up even as others fought to save their own countries the likes of Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King Jr. 

Nigeria is our country, it is the one we truly own. Let us be united in saving our nation. Our outward expression of unity will reflect our inward unity of purpose.

Against the backdrop of a growing population of idle youths (phone pressing generation, indomie generation) we need to come up with a clear-cut youth policy that will channel the youthful vigour of our youths into proper use. If not, the army of the unemployed youths in the country could constitute a time bomb, waiting to explode. 

For Six decades, we have allowed our leaders our "hero's" do their thing and where has it gotten us to?🤷 I think it's time we discard that idea of what will be, will be especially on matters that concerns us as a nation, the government as a whole and the upcoming government and leaders to come. Let this change start from each and everyone of us and I know this would go a long way in helping us and generations yet unborn.

    The best way to predict your future is to create it. The future of our country must not be left to chance, we must be conscious about it

HAPPY NEW YEAR: Introextroverts (Dealing with Depression).

 Why is depression so common among  introverts?  This question calls to mind a Stephen Hawking quote:  “Quiet people have the loudest minds.” This is very true and most true for introverts. Introverts tend to think too much and speak too little. That natural output, the cleansing of thoughts that extroverts or ambiverts experience is not something introverts experience.  Introverts, by nature, do not have those outlets, speaking deeply and freely only with very few(very trusted people.)Since they don’t have regular outlets they harbor trapped emotions and this tends to futher lend themselves to depression symptoms. Introverts tend to be perfectionists and are usually highly self critical, which leads to overthinking. This combination of over thinking, high self criticizing and the drive for perfection can trigger low self-esteem, feelings of guilt, worthlessness, melancholy and despair. These feeling, any combination of them actually, causes introverts to engage...

CODE SWITCHING

  Majority  or to an extent a large percentage of people "code switch". You might want to know what the term code switch mean.   Code switching is when a speaker alternates between two or more languages (or dialects or varieties of language) in one conversation.  Code switching occurs mostly in bilingual communities. Speakers of more than one language are known for their ability to code switch or mix their language during their communication. Some person's code switch within one language by mixing dialects or types of vernacular. For example, You can mix academic-speak with street-speak (pidgin).  Since its inception, the term "code switching" has expanded to encapsulate any situation in which speakers finds themselves switching from one accepted vocabulary or style, to another.  Take a look at this 🤷 you'd probably speak to an employer differently than you would address a close friend, so you might switch from casual language to professional-speaking...
