Just Checking in: Don't Stop the Grind, Keep PUSHing

Dear lazy Nigerian Youth, (I hope you felt the sarcasm)

 

I hope you've had a worthwhile week, I hope we're all praying for our country Nigeria. 



This is just one of my check-ups to see how you're doing and to drop a small piece of positive thoughts. The last few weeks haven't been too good for some of us but regardless of the circumstances we still keep PUSHing on.


To push has lots of meanings. Varying from compelling or urging someone to do something to exerting force on (someone or something) to move them away from oneself. There's another meaning that we may be familiar with. To PUSH is to pray until something happens.



Today I urge you not to stop the grind and to keep pushing. PUSH in any way you can. Nigeria is bleeding, we need all the prayers we can get.

No effort is too small or too large. Whatever it is you're doing, you've been doing or haven't started doing, I want you to know you're not alone. Don't stop the grind, keep PUSHing.



Yours always,

Alero.

Why We Compare Ourselves To Others and How To Stop

For as long as I can remember I have battled with comparison and I still continue to battle with it. I have compared myself to others in so many aspects of my life such as my academics, what clothes I have, the type of phone I'm using, how big the house I live in is, the kind of jewelry I wear and so many other aspects of life. I've always had this idea that mine had to be better than the guy or girl next door.  Comparing yourself to others doesn't make you a bad person neither does it mean it's a good thing to do. It's perfectly normal and it's part of life's challenges. Although comparison makes some of us feel better with ourselves, we forget that it's also short-lived and afterward we get this feeling of inadequacy, worthlessness, and overall unhappiness. So now I'm going to ask the million-dollar question.  Why do we constantly compare ourselves to others? 1. The belief that success looks a certain kind of way. We think that for you ...

Home Is Not A Place, It's A Feeling

  We all believe our homes to be,  Our safe space, Our nest, Our Haven, Our paradise, but people differ and may not always think like this. Why do you need a home? We all have our DEMONS, like it or not they're there. The sooner you realize they're haunting you the better.  Our demons are the trials and tribulations we go through every day. When we battle our demons we all need somewhere to retreat to, whether or not the battle has been won or lost. These demons can't get to us when we're home. As long as we stay home, there's no way in for them. When you're not battling demons You're conquering COMPANIONSHIP I don't just mean being married, but also the companionship of your brothers and sisters, your friends, your closest friends and let's not forget the BFF'S  There's this feeling we get when we're surrounded by those we love the most When we realize this is our home  We see that Home is not just a place, it...
