1. When people are asked the recipe to a good marriage, a lot mention communication. They fail to qualify it as "effective communication". In communicating effectively, the message has to be sent in a way that the receiver understands and can process it.
2. The receiver then responds so that the sender can get a feedback and know that the message is understood. Anything short of this is talking above each other's head.
People also fail to realize that timing is important. You cannot want to express your feelings at a time
3. when emotions are raging. The message will never be processed well. There is a time and place for everything. In relationships and even at work.
Apply emotional intelligence in your conversations and everything appears easy. Discard emotional intelligence and...
4. everything appears like obstacles in your path.
So I ask you today, friend, are you communicating or talking above each other's heads? There's a whole lot of difference between the two. While the former brings you closer, the latter creates a gully between the two of you.
5. Communication is important but be sure that you're speaking in a language the other party can hear. It requires patience, attention to details and emotional intelligence to communicate effectively.

P.S...there are some people that are highly irrational.
6. No matter how hard u try, u cannot get across to them. They behave like they have coconut in their frontal lobe. Recognize such people and walk away before they autococonut your frontal lobe.
If u are married to such a person, all I can say is..."may the good Lord help you".

1. My father was a clairvoyant man. He was blessed with the uncanny ability to sense things before they happened. Not all the time, but usually when it happened, he was usually spot on. The funny thing about his predictions was that it would usually happen years later, and
2. he would have said such things in jest.

Like the time he told his friend who was living in a rented apartment that he was going to buy the duplex beside his house in a few years. His friend laughed till his sides ached. Years later, he bought that house and has bought other
3. houses and is still living in that duplex till date. He was also blessed with a deep spirituality and closeness with his maker. He had this aura around him that showed that he was at peace and in tune with his Deen. Muslims and Christians came from around and far, to ask him

1. Normally, I try as much as possible to stay away from trending topics. But this one, struck a nerve especially because I will be talking on a panel tomorrow which is the International Women's day.
The insensitive opinions about dropping off babies at 3 months in a creche.
2. Worse still, some of the most insensitive ones have come from people that should have empathy in their statements and actions. I have since realized that even though we see a lot of people talking about women becoming more, it is just lip service.
3. On the other side, we also have a group that seem to think women have super powers and can do any, and everything.
Dear woman, this is for you. Be intentional about self care. You will never satisfy everyone and if you keep looking out for validation from the wrong places,

1. Four lessons you should teach your children
a) The concept of failure - Tell them about putting in the work and hoping for the best but that everyone will fail at something or the other. It doesn't mean they're a failure. It is just a part of life.
2. Learning to deal with failure is very essential, so it doesn't break them when they experience it.

b) The concept of rejection- Tell them that they cannot always have what they want. In their career, relationships, friendships and so on. They may get No as a response
3. several times. Getting rejections is also a normal part of life and they will not always have their way.
c)Teach them about Contentment- To be happy with what they have while striving to be the best they can be. The inner peace that comes with being happy with what you possess

A lot of people have misunderstood this tweet. Deliberately or unintentionally. What he's saying is that it doesn't get handed to you. Especially if you don't come from money and if you don't have a trust fund stashed somewhere. It is easier to put in the work, take risks, absorb
knowledge voraciously when you're younger. More shock absorber to make mistakes and learn from them. He's not even saying you can't make it in your 40s or 50s. He's just saying - It is easier to get your hands dirty when you're younger. Work smart is important,
but work hard is also essential. I saw someone ask, "you that you've been working hard, are you Otedola or Dangote?"
It just goes to show how superficial and unrealistic we are. How many people will become insanely rich? Why do we define success only by how many times our names

Let's talk about vitamins and glutathione infusion use in the skin.
Naturally, most of the vitamins we need are gotten from the diet especially in someone feeding well and is not malnourished. Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant -
2. Oxidants are produced in the body normally due to the various processes that take place. They're also important in bacterial killing. Antioxidants protect the body from oxidants especially when they're getting overwhelming. Glutathione is produced by the liver and in a healthy
3. person, your body makes enough. In people with certain conditions like liver disease or conditions where there are a lot of oxidants e.g cancers, glutathione supplementation has been documented to be beneficial.

One of the side effects of glutathione which is temporary is

1. Before you say, "she stole my idea," remember that ideas are one in a million.That same thing you're thinking of has been thought of by thousands if not millions of people. The world has billions of people in it. Surely, you must know that ideas are not specific to one person.
2. It is not the idea that is most important, what makes an idea become yours are the ones you executed and brought to fruition. If you actually have an idea that nobody has ever thought of and you don't find anything remotely similar to it after you've done extensive research,
3. know that the idea may be worth dropping. It is unlikely to be successful especially when it is a business venture. If it is just something you want to do to give you an emotional high, by all means....go ahead. But if you intend to make money from that venture,
