I don't know how you deal with this

 



I know...I have been M.I.A for a bit, it wasn't because I had nothing to write about--no! On the contrary, there were lots of things I could have written; I just lacked the motivation to do so.


Every morning, I would wake up, plan my day jotting down a list of things I needed to execute in my to-do list but will fail to accomplish most of them by the end of the day.

My days were pretty much the same; wake up, drag me out of bed, stare at the ceiling for a few seconds, fall back to sleep.
After what seems like minutes (usually another hour) I attempt to drag myself out of bed the second time; pretend to do my morning workout, and then proceed to make something that looks like a healthy meal before I get about the business of the day. I can tell one thing for free, It wasn't fun at all.

To deal with the problem I force my mind to get certain tasks done even when my body was screaming objections at me

This evening, I just said "You know what, I'm done feeling like an eggplant" I began writing hoping I articulate perfectly in words how I feel
And how I intend to get over being unimaginative and unmotivated 

Like anything else, forming new habits implies putting in the consistent effort; it is doing one thing over and over until it becomes a part of your daily life.

if you reading this and feel this way, know that you are not alone, we all go through phases like this. It took me a while. We are gradually getting there.

Here is a little encouragement for us all - keep going, keep working on that passion.

Let me also add that In a few days, I will be documenting a small piece of my day to day activities.

Hopefully, you get a kick out of it

What is your body count?

That was the question I was asked today...The evening was going quite well for me until it went from "This has gotta be the best night ever" to "Oh no he didn't!". My facial expression changed in that instant from a smile to outrage: it became glaring that this question was off-limits. I moved around uneasily in my seat; I began thinking about how best to address the situation without coming off as the 'Crazy b***h!'  Peter was a good friend, and oftentimes we would discuss random topics of interest and argue endlessly- they were resolved amicably each time but this one wasn't one of those.  I honestly don't know how we went from discussing random things to, "So, do you mind sharing how many people you have had sexual encounters with?" I was in shock for a few seconds, If I had been drinking at the time I would have choked on it and spat it out in shock! Why was this piece of information important, why would anyone want to know the numb

Let’s talk about grown-up stuff: Let’s talk S.E.X

It was 9: 45 pm and I was getting really bored watching the news, so I figured it was time to go to bed as I had an early start the next day,  I got into bed and decided to browse the internet for a bit. Social media is such an interesting place; I mean, you think you will be there for 10 mins and boom! It’s 2 am! That was exactly what happened to me. I was just about to force myself to sleep, then the phone rang,  it was my friend Bunmi “ Hello, Zee...are you awake?”  she asked  “ Yes, I am” I responded as I rolled my eyeballs; who did she think was speaking to, a robot? “I’m glad you are awake” she continued “ I am depressed”. That got me. I was now worried. It was past 2 am and I figured it must be something urgent. "Are you alright, is everything okay?” I asked hurriedly. “ Yes, well No” she continued “ It's just that I am getting really frustrated in this relationship” she added. She went back and forth about how she loved her man and how wonderful he was but she d

Hello, My Name is Doctor, Chief, Evangelist, Prince, Prophet John Doe

I got a WhatsApp message today......and it was not the usual. The recipient who was somewhat a client thought it was appropriate that everyone in the group chat knew he was not ordinary and so he made sure it sank in! “My name Doctor, Umezulora 1, Evangelist, Apostle......” This was how he would end every message. It may look like a joke to some of you but unfortunately it was something we all had to put up with. I had met this client a few days back and he seemed like an intelligent/warm individual but, what I could not understand was why he had to introduce himself using all his titles. It was funny at first, but I became worried afterwards. I didn’t know whether to laugh, cry or pull my hair out in frustration. I looked around the room to see if anyone rolled their eyes every time he did that but it seemed the rest of the team were fine with it......so I thought. The  meeting ended in high notes, I gave a quick excuse as to why I had to leave early so I didn’t have to hear h
