The Weeping Lecturer

In the morning, the heavens opened and it began to rain. Bella grabbed her umbrella to get to school, as she walked out of the hostel the first

Myself reflection

"Men see me but don't know the true me.
It comes like a rushing wind,
Men see me but don't see my mind
My heart is set ablaze like one ignited by fire,
Just like yesterday I received compliments; people testifying my beauty,
But I doubt it.

Men look back at me the second time in admiration of my beauty.
Men said I'm beautiful but I still doubt it.
I'm frustrated,
I'm frightened,
I'm agitating to their confession. I look
aggressive

Whenever I hear "pretty" taking over my name.

I don't think I'm beautiful
I still doubt the beauty people behold
Could it be my shadow they see?
I'm beautiful but I doubt my beauty!

I don't think I'm beautiful,
I will know and accept that I'm beautiful
When suitors knock on the door of my fathers.
When a man beholds my face, and marry me, not considering my beauty,

When he has the courage and assurance that I'm forever beautiful.
Knowing well that beauty fades, persists in marrying me.
Considering the inner being, he slides the ring on my fingers of "I do"
Then and only then will I know that I'm truly beautiful, "expression of thoughts. See also "Solitude"

A woman is incomplete without a man,
A woman is ugly without a man.
Men can only marry the inner being not the totality of the outlook or facial looks.

Everyone needs serenity to accept the things they cannot change, the courage to change the things they can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
Beauty is in the mind. Virtue is in the character.

Things you should expect when you connect with your spot

Get out of the rat race. After all, if you win, you will simply be the big rat. Stop running in the competition. The only person you should compete with is yourself. "how well am I performing in my leadership spot," is what you should ask yourself. You have to know that the battery does not compete with a spark plug, because the battery knows the spark plug can never be a battery, and so on. They sit in the engine in their spots and serve the engine their gift without competing

Why does negative behaviour continue?

It works. There is some kind of payoff, some type of momentary satisfaction that is derived from not changing. The reward might be financial or psychological. Some people will continue unproductive behaviour to seek approval, acceptance, praise, or love. Others continue their unacceptable actions out of pride, greed or a sense of personal fulfilment. They may oppress others with their need to always be right because they treasure being right- even if it destroys a relationship.

Adding value to other people is the work of a positive influencer

As you move up to the higher levels of influence and become an active influencer, you can begin to have a positive influence on people and add value on their lives. That's true for any positive influencer. The baby-sitter who reads to the child encourages him to love books and helps him become a lifelong learner. The teacher who puts his faith, confidence, and love on a child helps the child to feel valued and good about herself. That boss who delegates to the employees and gives them authority as well as responsibility enlarges their horizons and empowers them to become better workers and people. Even the parents who know how to give their children grace and when to, also help them to stay open and communicative. All of these people add lasting value to the lives of other people. One thing is this, we don't know what kind of influence you have on others, today as you read this article. Your actions may touch the lives of thousands of people. Perhaps you use the opportunity
