This is my reality, my real life, I don't impress, I'm not an attention seeking bitch.... I'm just an irregular girl with many sides/perceptions Here, everything is real. Nothing is made up! This is me, so if you're going to stick around, get ready to see the world through my eyes, feel the world through my touch and face reality for what it really is because that's what it is and nothing more. My name is Annie and this is my corner. And oh! It's 1st of September... What a way to begin the month. Happy September lovelies. Don't forget to be the best you can. Cheers!☺

How To Stay Positive In A Negative Environment.

Image
Hey guys, welcome to Annie's corner once again and thanks for always taking out time to read every single post. So we're looking at how to stay positive even when we are surrounded by negative people and situations . More often than not, I hear people say when you confess positive things you attract positive things. In other words what you confess is what you attract. This has proved to be true in most cases. But my question is how can you stay positive in a negative environment? How do you deal the negativity from people around you? Knowing the kind of society we live in, knowing how conditions have tailored the minds of people to think that we have a system where nothing works and even if anything does it takes like forever. This is quite technical. Trust me the answer might sound easy but it is not an easy thing to do. In a situation where you're trying to stay positive, having positive thoughts let's say about something you intend to do or achieve , and

Happy New Month!

Holla people, it's been ages and yes it's a new month! How easy can this get?🤦 OK so I was having some random thoughts as usual and so I thought I should share. ☺ Alot of times, we hear people say happy new month, happy new week, happy new year and so on.... Just yesterday someone asked, "what's happy about the month? " • When you enter a new month and your boss at your work place owes you salary for the previous month, can you say you're happy about the new month? • When you don't meet up with targets for the previous month, and you start thinking of how to work your magic in the new month... Can that be classified as happiness? • Someone said as long as there's life there's hope! True though but then does that mean you shouldn't have absolute happiness as a goal? • When we say something, let's mean it! Set that target, achieve that goal, live the life, and then when a new season comes we can say we are happy indeed. Happy

Irresponsibility! A curse?

Hey guys the weekend is here again and it's TGIF. Many of us are grateful for the weekend obviously. So I took out time today to put this piece together on Parenting and responsibilities because it's a vital part of life that is been overlooked in our society today.  The birth of a child they say is the ultimate form of creation and therefore brings joy to both father, mother and the society. With it also comes great responsibility. So today our focus will be on fatherhood in the societal moral sense. A man meets a woman, goes through the process of wooing her, they get married and decide to procreate. He doesn't have any issues bringing an image into the world to take over his name when he departs. And then suddenly,  along the line he ups and leaves. Which makes me wonder; Does a father/husband who abandoned his wife and children to fend for themselves be said to be under a curse or his he just being irresponsible? What triggers the sudden urge to leave your fa

Thursday Motivation!

Hola amigos, es jueves😊😊.  Just because I've got a flair for Spanish language. Lol! So it's Thursday and a very terrific one. Know why? Because the weekend is almost here!😄 Not just that, but because I was able to meet up with some of the targets that I set at the beginning of the week. Now that's the good thing about STARTING and STAYING  positive. So here's a gentle reminder that, the week is coming to an end. And so as you prepare to welcome the new week, be sure to reassess your shortcomings and prepare for a stronger start to achieve better in the coming week. But above all, celebrate each day as it comes, prepare for the next and always stay true to yourself. Work hard and stay positive and you'll have the lines falling in the right places in no time. #Cheers #Annie😊

WAKE UP, IT'S MONDAY!!!

Image
Hey guys! It's Monday again and well not a really interesting one for me and I'm sure most people feel the same way. There's this thing about Monday that gets most people into some kind of depressing mood and that's because a whole lot of negativity has been attached to it. Yes Monday comes with a lot of pressure,stress and new targets to keep up with and that is exactly what most of us as human beings do not know how to deal with. If you ask me, I'd say Monday is a go-getter and therefore not for lazy people. Most Mondays comes with a little pain, no matter what you do or how much you love your job, the transition from weekend to a new week leaves a cranky feeling. It's normal for everyone! Sometime ago, I wrote a piece about starting Monday on a positive note and I had mentioned that you can't have a negative attitude towards something and expect to get any positive outcome. Here's a few tips on how you can start your Monday on a positive n

No More Excuses!!!

Hey guys, so yesterday I talked about celebrating a woman.  Today I have been sitting and thinking all day of what to write about and then someone walks up to me and pops up this question, "where do you get your inspiration from, where do you get ideas on what to write about?" and then suddenly it dawned on me that I really didn't need to have a particular idea about something before i knew what to write. So many times I've made up excuses for not being consistent at a particular thing,such as "I've lost my muse, there's no motivation, I can't seem think about anything...." and so much more. Now one thing out of many you have to realize is that, excuses have a way of posing as obstacles to getting things done. Excuses have a way of making things seem less important. Now you do not realize that until you have lost a valuable period of time, time that could have been put to good use. Before I started this piece, I had no idea

Celebrating Women. #Wcw

Hi guys today I'll be talking about #WCW. Woman Crush Wednesday is a day set aside to adore women. It could be adoration for her beauty, her personality or her achievements. Sometimes we fail to see women for the heroine they truly are, we fail to see the hidden strength in women and that is because most often than not, women are looked down on. A woman has two times the strength of a man. There are certain things that women can do better than men in the society today, but because it's always been believed that a woman's place has always been in the kitchen, we tend to overlook those extra efforts a woman puts in. look around you, take note of every woman around you, there's one thing if not more that should be appreciated or admired. A woman may not have the physical resources to do certain things like men can, but the strength with which she has towards getting certain things done is worth looking our for. A woman with drive and passion can do more if given th

SELF RECOGNITION

Good morning folks, welcome to Annie's corner. Forgive me for the lack of consistency, but I really do hope to improve better and do more with time. So I read a piece someone posted on my status this morning and good Lord did that piece make sense. A deep and sensitive message in a few words. Why do you let people change you? You let them change you from being a reasonable, decent, and kind person (which is the default you), to the complete opposite of who you are. Why do you do that? And as you watch that once reasonable, decent, and kind person begin to use words like: "heartless", "unbothered", "nonchalant", to describe themselves. It's almost as if they've forgotten who they are and you cannot to recognize them anymore. Sometimes the problems aren't with people or what they do to us. It's with us for not checking them at the door before letting them into our hearts and ultimately our lives.. (Words of Ya

Just So You Know!

So I realized that in a circle, especially a very large one, there'll always be what we call eye-service.. If the meaning of this phrase deludes you, it simply means People doing things which particularly does not affect their personal growth or interests,but for the basic fact that they wouldn't want to be seen as going against what they consider the 'normal sequence' or to be on the 'wrong side',hence they bite their own tails to please other people. One group of these "notice me's" can be spotted when they take it upon themselves to be be rewarders of deeds noticed or unnoticed,just or not so long as they are carried out by a particular group which they find a way to "gum body " with. Aproko part two are the set of people who will always jump out and sing praises about something that's not relevant or something that doesn't even concern the general circle. They sha want to be seen and heard. Oya let us clap for them! Lets
