Money can buy you happiness!

Let me show you how

The notion that money can not buy happiness has for so long made many people operate at a low frequency.

This is because they believe that no matter how much they accumulate that it still won't help them find happiness.

While in reality, they haven't found happiness because they really do not have the means to get the things that will make them happy.

Happiness is a feeling and that feeling is always elicited by something either tangible or intangible.

For example, you just had a new baby; that can make you happy that you birthed a new being into the world.

If you bought a new car, especially if it is your first car, that can make you happy.

If you just won a competition, that can make you happy.

Okkk…. I know you will be like >>>

so what are you getting at mate?

Alright …alright… I know you are tired of my examples.

So, let me finish up by asking!

Will it be ok to say that even though money can not directly buy happiness, it can indirectly BUY it?

What I mean by that is >>>

If you had enough money and have no car and used your money to buy yourself a new car (your first car):

Won't it be correct to say that money enabled that happiness and thus that money bought you some happiness?

Of course, I know that you can already see where my argument is headed…

Even though money can not directly buy you happiness (just because happiness is intangible), It can buy you tangible assets and connections that can give you the said happiness.

Let me know your thoughts on this.

Overcoming Procrastination

Today, I am tackling a topic that I know hits home for a lot of us— overcoming procrastination . You know that feeling, right? When you’ve got a deadline looming, a dream you’re chasing, or even just a sink full of dishes, but somehow you’re scrolling through your phone or reorganizing your sock drawer instead? Yeah, we’ve all been there. I’m going to dive deep into why we procrastinate, how it’s tied to our past experiences, and—most importantly—how we can start breaking free from it. Hopefully, it resonates with you. So, let’s break it down and get into it. What’s Really Behind Procrastination? Procrastination isn’t just about being “lazy” or “unmotivated.” I used to think it was, but the more I’ve reflected on it, the more I’ve realized it’s deeper than that. Depending on the experiences we’ve gone through, our relationship with taking action—or avoiding it—gets shaped in unique ways. It’s like our tolerance for risk, failure, or even success adjusts based on what life’s thrown at u...

Tailor Your Skills and Gifts to Your Life's Desires

In the journey of life, we each possess unique skills and gifts that set us apart. These talents are intrinsic to who we are, shaping our potential and guiding our paths. My suggestion that you should Tailor your skills and gifts to what you want for your life. You don't need to justify it, they are already yours, to begin with, was me trying to capture the essence of embracing and aligning our abilities with our aspirations. I was looking to shed light on the importance of this alignment and why you should never feel the need to justify your talents to anyone. First and foremost, it's essential to recognize that your skills and gifts are inherently yours. They are part of your identity, woven into the fabric of your being. These abilities were not borrowed or taken from someone else; they are a natural extension of who you are. Therefore, you have every right to use them in a way that aligns with your vision for your life. When you tailor your skills and gifts to your pers...

You Need To Get Angry

Why anger is good for you. Anger, even though a destructive emotion, is a required catalyst for growth. - James Ezenachi Understanding this concept will make you value anger. If you have never gotten angry with your situations and inabilities, you may never be propelled to seek growth. Many of us are where we are today because of the level of anger that we entertain. And I know, we have been trained and groomed to think and believe that anger is a bad thing, a negative emotion that we should avoid at all cost. While I understand the reason for this logical position, I also understand that perspective is everything. So, if the reason why you have been told to desist from anger and the underlying emotions is because of the possible havoc it can wreak in a person and their fellow, especially when one person feels hurt by another and they are pushed to have a revenge. Yes, for that I understand and agree. However, when I talk about anger from a different perspective, it is in the lig...
