To live a life of fulfillment it is required that living a life of purpose is paramount. Purposeful living is a fulfilled living, inbuilt in every person is greatness. We all have greatness deposited in us by virtue of us being a complete being, what do i mean by this, we were created perfectly and wonderfully. A perfect brand of car will have the necessary and complete components that are needed to call an object a car, it sometimes comes with an additional and special component, depending on the brand of car. So as someone created by the creator, we were created perfectly and giving additional components we need and that can be said to be our brand. For some the additional component might be a spectacular voice, for some, it might be dancing, and these additional components make such individuals stand tall.

The unforgettable scolding my parents gave me.
At a particular point in my life, i thought and i asked myself these questions? "Are my parents my biological parents?" This was a question raised out of the wonder i get whenever i'm being scolded. Many times when i get scolded i tend to feel it as too much or why i'm being scolded in such a manner. And of course, as a child i was immature, i sometimes was at fault and also i was the very one that warranted the scolding. Another thing i noticed while being scolded was, my mom will forever support my dad whenever i am being scolded, and likewise, my dad will always support my mom whenever i am being scolded. I keep asking myself why can't just one of you bail me out, someone should just say no, that's enough.

Make haste while the sun shines.
Our everyday activities are being created and controlled by our very selves. We are in charge of all we do on a daily basis, how we choose to it and when we decide to do it. Sometimes we may decide to take our time in doing some activities and sometimes we tend to move as fast as possible to see the activity or task achieved and completed within a short period of time.

The sky is wide enough for all birds to fly.
At some particular point of our lives, times when we are finding it difficult to navigate our way around life, times when everything seems overwhelming. During these trying times, we tend to doubt ourselves, our abilities, and our strengths. We look down at every minute great thing we do all because we feel we aren't big enough or what we did isn't good to be seen by the world.

Saying the truth at all times, how easy?
A lot of times we find ourselves in different situations and circumstances, sometimes it is good and some other times it is always bad. There are times when all we say matters even to the last detail, it's either our saving weapon or for our judgment. Most times we are not always at the center of every situation but invitees to such situations, our responses might either save the person involved or otherwise.

5 life lessons that should be taught to a child early.
I am sure i am correct to say that our childhood days were one of the most precious days when we could have been taught about financial literacy and some other crucial life lessons. Instead of this, quite a number of us were given all we wanted, and even most times our thoughts were being done for us. We played little or no part in our growth and preparation for the life ahead. It is of truth this wasn't in any way our faults and we couldn't have known somethings all by ourselves, we needed to be taught what it is we need to do and how to go about doing those things when they eventually show up, and when we talk about show up, it isn't necessarily at the moment when we were being taught.

My USA embassy experience
At every point in time in a man's life, we tend to be a part of three different experiences, which are the good, bad, and ugly. It is almost certain that 95% of humans have all gone through these experiences. And if you have not, yours is around the corner, it's winking at you, and the truth is you don't really need to be the one to orchestrate the experience you might and will just find yourself in it but as for me i orchestrated it and i found myself in it twice.

How I found myself.
The truth about finding oneself can only be discovered by the person in question. This article might seem like the previous one posted but really it is very different from how to be yourself. They are two different keys and important aspects of every individual, you need to discover the two in other to live your best life. You are free to arrange them as you so wish, either this first: "How i found myself", or "How to be yourself" second, trust me you will do very well no matter how you choose to arrange them.

How to be yourself.
It will interest you to know that the world is not served by you playing small or trying to clone yourself into behaving or performing like other people. It has therefore been a necessity for you to be yourself no matter what. No one has ever sustained success masking who they are, you might enjoy the ride for long but it always does not last long, so why go through the stress of hiding under someone else's clothing. Originality and genuineness are what the world craves for and you can be that best version of yourself the world is waiting to see and experience.

How to Increase your productivity.
Our daily living and engagements are and will be based and focused on these twelve letter words called, "PRODUCTIVITY." It has been known to be one of the apex or end results we require to get at the end of all endeavors or activities. There is absolutely no joy to be derived when you are unproductive. Productivity and its results can not be overemphasized, it is a goal we all must always look out for at the end of our daily activities or works, a lot of people over time have been stuck at just one level and they don't seem to increase as time moves, they tend to operate under the normal level or should i say the first level of productivity.
