THE SINCERE ME

Sleep is very important to our health though a lot of us joke with our sleep. As a young person between the age of 18-35, you need 7 to 9 hours of sleep. Lack of good sleep can lead to serious and long term health problems. It can also lead to depression and affects one's mood.  We have some people who are referred to as night owls who prefer to be awake and work at night, these people tend to be very creative and are more active at night. Night owls are faced with health challenges because normally, humans are programmed to sleep at night and wake up in the morning, so going against this natural rule will definitely have consequences. We regularly see and read that successful people do not sleep more than 4 hours, well this is a fallacy that we need to stop believing. You can plan your day well, utilize your time to the maximum, sleep at night and become very successful. Effects Of Sleeping Late 1. It can lead to poor eating habits When we deprive our self from good sleep and sta

Conflict in workplace is when there is an disagreement between two or more people working together, it could between colleagues, managers or even customers. Conflicts in workplace can not be avoided since people from different backgrounds and culture's are working together. Whether you are an employer or an employee, managing workplace conflicts is one important skills you should have. Avoiding and ignoring the conflicts or hoping it will go away is not the best way to manage conflict, instead you should address the issue face to face. Causes Of Workplace Conflict 1. Poor communication Poor communication can cause conflict in our everyday life and our workplace is no exception. When employees do not know exactly what their job is, they might not perform up to expectation or do someone else's work. Poor communication can also make an employee to make incorrect assumption. The tone and manner of communication also influences whether or not it will lead to conflict. 2. Unhealthy c

Have you ever missed an opportunity or you messed up a project and you keep thinking about it, thinking about what you should have done and not done and you can't just get it out of your mind. It could have even affected you for a few days, maybe you were not able to eat well or you could not even concentrate at work??? This is a good example of overthinking and what it can do to someone. Overthinking is to think about something over and over again over a period of time. It can be thoughts about the past or thoughts about the future. It should be noted that overthinking is not the same as problem solving and does not yield any positive result, instead it can lead to further worries and may delay one from making decisions or taking the right actions. Overthinking can also lead to depression and anxiety and can cause serious health issues if not properly taken care of early. People normally overthink when they are faced with a major decision like buying a car, getting married, choos

 Have you ever met someone for the first time and you just dislike or hate the person, well this happen to everyone and can be very bad if you are at the receiving end. So are you wondering why someone who has never interacted with you before hate you?  There are actually several reasons why this could happen and that is what this write up is all about.  The first reason I will be talking about is Jealousy/envy , humans tend to hate who they can't become and so it is easy for people to question your success and achievement when they are jealous of you. Another reason could be if a person is toxic , they would probably hate you especially if  you are a nice or jovial person. This could be as a result of their upbringing when they were young so if a person was trained to hate people from a particular religion, the person might always find him/her self hating people from that particular religion even after becoming an adult. Some people also hate others because they have something the

Being a Nigeria means a lot of things, one of them is saying "failure is not my portion, success is mine, I shall be the head and not the tail" and so on. While this declarations are good considering Nigerians are religious people and it is also good for positive mindset they are really not too realistic because failure do happen and it is sometimes the best thing to happen at the time. Failing a test or exam, not securing a job, not being able to meet a target at work, not getting admission for a program, or even running down a business are all examples of failure. Though Failing is normally said in regards to students and examination, it cuts across every areas of life. People say failure is the opposite or lack of success but I feel a better definition will be failure is the stepping stone to success. We have read and seen stories of great people like Oprah Winfrey, Thomas Edison who had to fail multiple times before becoming great. So the question is what should I do when

  What really is love??? Love love love... this is a four letter word that is said everyday in different circumstances: the mother speaking to her son, the love struck young boy to his partner, the guest speaker to his listeners, the preacher speaking about God. Everyone actually have a definition of love.. but really, what is love or better still what should love be? Dictionary will tell us that love is having deep affection for someone, but love is much more than just these complex grammars, love is more than just the feelings, but is much in the act, love is not about the saying but in the doing. Love is commitment...holding on ... never giving up... not looking back... still believing...not faltering...  Love is pain... enduring... tolerating... accepting...forgiving... Love is sacrifice... giving it all... not holding back... not expecting returns... Love comes with a price...a price paid by the giver not the receiver....going against the natural order of law... Love is forgiving

Procrastination  is a deadly vice that can affect one's life negatively. It is a habit that one has to consciously fight against. Procrastination can range from not doing a simple house chores to not finishing a school project. There are different reasons why people procrastinate, one of the most common reason is lack of motivation. For example most students will not do their homework if they do not like the subject or if they do not know what to do. Procrastination may necessary not be laziness or bad time management but should be seen more as an emotional problem. Procrastination can affect your life in different ways, let us take a look at some of these ways: Causes You to Make Bad Decision When you fail to make a decision at the right time, there is possibility that by the time you finally make the decision which will definitely be a rush time, you will make a bad decision. If you want to get a new shoe for an event for example and you wait till a day before the event, there
