Life can be unpredictable, and sometimes things happen that are completely out of our control. But here's the thing: we always have the power to take full responsibility for our reactions and actions, even in the face of adversity. 💪

Taking full responsibility means acknowledging that while we may not have caused a certain event or situation, we do have control over how we respond to it. 💭 We can choose to take a victim mentality and blame others or external circumstances, or we can choose to take ownership of our reactions and learn from the experience. 🤔

When we choose to take full responsibility for our lives, we become empowered. 🔥 We stop feeling like life is happening to us, and instead, we start taking charge of our own destinies. 🌟 We recognize that we have the ability to shape our lives and make positive changes, no matter what challenges we may face.

This attitude can truly change your life for the better. 🌈 By taking responsibility, you free yourself from the burden of blaming others or feeling like a victim. You become more resilient, adaptable, and open to new possibilities. 🌞 You start to see challenges as opportunities for growth and learning, rather than as setbacks. 🌱

So if you're feeling stuck or overwhelmed by life's challenges, remember that you have the power to take full responsibility for your reactions and actions. 💪 It may not always be easy, but by doing so, you'll open up a world of possibilities for yourself and create a brighter, more fulfilling future. 🌟

In Finland introduced a daytime nap at work. This time is paid

The Finnish trade unions came to the conclusion that daytime sleep in the middle of the work process has a fruitful effect not only on the productivity of employees, but also (which is quite logical) on the financial well-being of the company, where employees are allowed to take a nap for an hour.

A FATHER AND HIS DAUGHTER

Moral Story Of The Day.

A father sent his little daughter to spend the holidays with family members. When the girl returned home, he asked her.

"So tell me honestly, did you enjoy your holidays?"

She responded.
"Everyone was nice to me apart from Aunty Nancy. She seems too harsh and I have a feeling that she hates me"

He asked.
"Why? What makes you think so?"

The little girl replied.
"Firstly, she doesn't respond to my greetings no matter how many times I greet her. Secondly, there was a day I helped her find her missing watch but she didn't even say 'thank you'. And thirdly, she never interacted with me like others did, and has never spoken to me before. She's so unbelievable"

The father remarked.
"Really? So, what is her reaction when you greet her?"

The girl uttered.
"She would pretend not to notice me"

The father paused for a moment and said.

"I think you're right. Nancy is truly a bad Aunty, and I think she really hates you. So, henceforth, you would try as much as possible to avoid her"

Just then, the father let out a chuckle that surprised her. He touched her arm, and with a smile on his face, he said.

"That was the voice of your mind speaking. Your mind has cooked up all negative stories about your Aunty, making it difficult to realize that she is deaf and dumb. Aunty Nancy is unable to hear or speak, so all your assumptions about her are wrong. That's how our minds are. The mind can be a very convincing liar. It simply makes up stuffs. With little or no evidence, it creates negative stories about the world and ourselves. So you shouldn't believe everything you think. And most importantly, if you can win over your mind forever, you can achieve anything in your life".

10 - REASONS WHY YOU MUST NOT GO WHERE YOU ARE NOT NEED.😳😎😳😎

1. Wasting time and energy: Going where you are not needed can be a waste of your valuable time and energy. Instead, focus on areas where your skills and expertise are required, allowing you to make a meaningful impact.

2. Lack of appreciation: When you go where you are not needed, you may not receive the recognition or appreciation you deserve. It can be demotivating to put in effort and not be acknowledged for your contributions.

3. Intruding on others' space: Going where you are not needed can be seen as intrusive or overstepping boundaries. Respect others' autonomy and allow them to handle their own affairs unless they specifically ask for your assistance.

4. Undermining others' abilities: By inserting yourself where you are not needed, you may unintentionally undermine the capabilities of others. It is important to trust in their skills and allow them to handle their responsibilities independently.

5. Creating dependency: Constantly going where you are not needed can create a sense of dependency on your presence. This can hinder others' growth and development, as they may rely on you rather than developing their own skills and problem-solving abilities.

6. Missed opportunities elsewhere: By focusing on areas where you are not needed, you may miss out on opportunities that align with your interests and goals. It is essential to prioritize your own growth and pursue endeavors that truly matter to you.

7. Overextending yourself: Going where you are not needed can lead to overextending yourself, spreading yourself too thin, and neglecting your own needs and well-being. It is crucial to maintain a healthy work-life balance and prioritize self-care.

8. Ineffective use of resources: When you divert resources to areas where you are not needed, it can lead to inefficient allocation of time, money, and other resources. It is important to utilize resources effectively and efficiently to maximize their impact.

9. Disrupting established processes: Going where you are not needed can disrupt established processes and workflows. It is essential to respect existing systems and protocols unless there is a clear need for change or improvement.

10. Frustration and disappointment: Lastly, constantly going where you are not needed can lead to frustration and disappointment. It is important to focus on areas where your contributions are valued and where you can make a meaningful difference, rather than wasting your efforts elsewhere.

WORDS FROM A FATHER TO A SON ABOUT MARRIAGE.....

1. My son, if you keep spending on a woman and she never asked you if you’re
saving or investing, and she keeps enjoying the attention, don’t marry her.

2. My son, a woman could be a good wife to you, some could be a good mother to
your children but if you’ve found a woman like a mother to you, your children and
your family, please don’t let her go.

3. My son, don’t confine the position of your wife to the kitchen, where did you get
that from? Even in our days, we had farm-lands where they worked every
morning . . . that was our office.

4. My son, if I tell you that you’re the head of the house, don’t look at your pocket;
look if you will see a smile on your wife’s face.

5. My son, if you want to have a long life, let your wife be in-charge of your salary,
it will be difficult for her to spend it when she’s aware of the home needs and bills
to pay but if it’s in your care, she will keep you asking even when all has been
spent.

6. My son, don’t ever beat your woman, the pain in her body is nothing to be
compared to the wound on her heart and that means you may be in trouble living
with a wounded woman.

7. My son, now that you’re married, if you live a bachelor kind of life with your
wife, you will soon be single again.

8. My son, in our days, we had many wives and many children because of our
large farm-lands and many harvests, there are hardly any land for farming anymore, so embrace your woman closely.

9. My son, under the cocoa tree that I did meet your mother could be your
eateries and restaurants of nowadays, but remember, the closet thing we did there
was to embrace each other.

10. My son, don’t be carried away when you start making more money, instead of
spending on those tiny legs that never knew how hard you worked to get it, spend
it on that woman that stood by you all along.

11. My son, when I threw little stones or whistled at the window of your mother
father’s house, to call her out, it was not for s*x, it was because I missed her so
much.

12. My son, remember, when you say your wife has changed, there could be
something you’ve stopped doing too.

13. My son, your mother, Asake rode the bicycle with me before I bought that
tortoise car outside there, any woman that won’t endure with you in your little
beginning should not enjoy your riches.

14. My son, don’t compare your wife to any woman, there are ways she’s enduring
you too and has she ever compared you to any man?

15. My son, there is this thing you people call feminism, well, if a woman claim to
have equal right with you in the house, divide all the bills into two equal parts, take
one part and ask her to start paying the other part.

16. My son, I met your mother a virgin and I took more yams to her father, if you
don’t meet your wife a virgin, don’t blame her, what I didn’t tell you is that our
women had prestige.

17. My son, I didn’t send your sisters to school because I was foolish like many to
think a female child won’t extend my family name, please don’t make that mistake,
the kind of female achievers I see nowadays has made the male-gender an ordinary
tag.

18. My son, your mother have once locked up the cloth I was wearing and almost
tore it because she was angry, I did not raise my hand to beat her because of a day
like this, so that I can be proud to tell you that I never for once beat your mother.

19. My son, in our days, our women had more of natural beauty, though I
wouldn’t lie to you, some had minor painting of their appellation mostly on their
arms, the ones you people now call tattoo, but don’t forget that they didn’t expose
any part of their body like your women of nowadays.

20. My son, your mother and I are not interested in what happens in your
marriage, try to handle issues without always coming to us.

21. My son, remember I bought your mother’s first sewing machine for her, help
your wife achieve her dreams just as you’re pursuing yours.

22. My son, don’t stop taking care of me and your mother, it’s a secret of growing
old and having children to take care of you too.

23. My son, pray with your family, there is a tomorrow you don’t know, talk to
God that knows everything, everyday.

Records show that sushi was first served in Japan back in the 8th century. The dish spread from China to Japan.

According to history, bread was invented by mistake more than 7,500 years ago.

The first loaf was made by an ancient Egyptian who accidentally left a mixture of flour and water in a warm oven overnight. When he returned, he found a soft dough much more appetizing than the hard tortillas he tried to make.

The beginning of the use of cereal in the writings dates back to about the 15th century B.C. Archaeologists have noted that, for the most part, cereals were ground with stone millstones.

The first flour was not used for baking but was used to make chowder. Flour was poured with hot water and a hot, viscous mass was obtained, which people ate as a hot meal. There is a theory that such a thick soup accidentally got into the oven - it was simply spilled while making the chowder.

While the man was thinking about how to clean it up and directly removed it, the spilled chowder had time to bake and turned into the first flatbread. The people decided to try what it turned out to be, and they loved the result.

We tell you five proven practices for dealing with stress.

1. Living on a schedule
Wakefulness, sleep, appetite, hormone production, and digestive activity depend on the cyclical change of day and night.

2. Physical exertion.
We feel tension and pain due to lack of muscle tone and that needs to change. Now is a good time to go dancing or yoga, take up running or tennis.

3. Proper nutrition and vitamins
To withstand stress, the body needs a reserve to mobilize resources. That's why it's so important to eat right and get enough vitamins every day.

4. Detox
Supporting the body's natural purification, reviewing the principles of nutrition, normalizing the water balance helps the body to get in the right frame of mind.

5. Solitude
It's important to find a place where you feel at ease. Get away. Change of scenery. Turn to yourself, understand what you really want, tune into a positive mood, to radiate confidence and energize others with positive energy.

REFLECTION
"My parents were married for 55 years. One morning, my mom was going downstairs to make dad breakfast, she had a heart attack and fell. My father picked her up as best he could and almost dragged her into the truck. At full speed , without respecting traffic lights, he drove her to the hospital.
When he arrived, unfortunately she was no longer with us.
During the funeral, my father did not speak; his gaze was lost. He hardly cried.
That night, his children joined him. In an atmosphere of pain and nostalgia, we remembered beautiful anecdotes and he asked my brother, a theologian, to tell him where Mom would be at that moment. My brother began to talk about life after death, and guesses as to how and where she would be.
My father listened carefully. Suddenly he asked us to take him to the cemetery.
Dad!" we replied, "it's 11 at night, we can't go to the cemetery right now!"
He raised his voice, and with a glazed look he said:
"Don't argue with me, please don't argue with the man who just lost his wife of 55 years."
There was a moment of respectful silence, we didn't argue anymore. We went to the cemetery, we asked the night watchman for permission. With a flashlight we reached the tomb. My father caressed her, prayed and told his children, who watched the scene moved:
"It was 55 years... you know? No one can talk about true love if they have no idea what it's like to share life with a woman."
He paused and wiped his face. "She and I, we were together in that crisis. I changed jobs ..." he continued. "We packed up when we sold the house and moved out of town. We shared the joy of seeing our children finish their careers, we mourned the departure of loved ones side by side, we prayed together in the waiting room of some hospitals, we support each other in pain, we hug each Christmas, and we forgive our mistakes... Children, now it's gone, and I'm happy, do you know why?
Because she left before me. She didn't have to go through the agony and pain of burying me, of being left alone after my departure. I will be the one to go through that, and I thank God. I love her so much that I wouldn't have liked her to suffer..."
When my father finished speaking, my brothers and I had tears streaming down our faces. We hugged him, and he comforted us, "It's okay, we can go home, it's been a good day."
That night I understood what true love is; It is far from romanticism, it does not have much to do with eroticism, or with s*x, rather it is linked to work, to complement, to care and, above all, to the true love that two really committed people profess ".
Peace in your hearts.
