TOUGH NUT TO CRACK...

we must be responsible for our actions and take responsibility for our action if we are ever to make anything of a good leader.that must be the toughest lesson i have had to learn in my short lived life.i find myself liking the kind of people who can admit to have made a mistake and say they are sorry(it is fine for me if you want to defend yourself,though admitting your mistake is good).currently i am trying to rid this bug called irresponsibility out of my life.
we have lived to many years and blinded ourselves with irresponsibility.a joke even says "a man who smiles when he is in trouble has found someone to blame!". the minute we start taking sole resonsibility for that within our jurisdiction,then we begin to work at it to make the best out of what we have. when we sit and take responsibility we begin to correct things from where we have messed them up.we begin cultivating a nature to do that which is right, because we know that when we mess up we will have to take the full responsibility. we must be responsible for our words,our thoughts,ouractions, our families, friends,and life in general.
this has been a life changing lesson for me because the minute i started taking responsibility for some things is the minute i really started taking care of them.it is hard by th way, but if you constantly remind yourself that you are to blame and the responsibility is yours you will begin to go somewhere. when we run away from our responsibility or try share the blame we begin being stuck in the torturous world of being mediocre.
let's not take things lightly or run away from them, we will never really achieve anything if we follow that route. instead let us take stock of our lives, be responsible for ourselves and others and then we can move away from mediocrity and smallness and move into greatness in character....
have a responsible week dear readers...by the way...i have some things to take responsibility for,must start now....

RESPONSIVE HUMANS....

wow...finally i got some time to jot something down,it has really been long,....
the world responds to how we reflect ourselves to them.people may not like to hear this but it is the plain truth. the way you speak and relate to people is the way they will respond to you. of course there are those unique people who just wont budge and treat you as you have treated them.
so you wonder why guys keep walking all over you the way you do?...you must be letting them do so in one way or another. i have come to acknowledge the presence of sensors in human beings,seriously we can always spot who will do what and who we can manipulate.we can always put a pin on character.needless to say if you want people to respond to you in a certain way you must 'train' them by allowing them to treat you in that way that you prefer. you must also handle people with as much respect as you want them to accord you.don't be a kid and just want, want ,and want more...people get bored by such antiques honestly.
a common example is, you are a serial 'African timer' yet when someone gets late,you blow the roof top...get real,they are just treating you with the same disregard for your time as you have treated them with before,so sit and don't say a word.
ever wonder when someone is a nice person,everyone usually notices it?...people are just responding to the nice nature this person has portrayed to them.when people treat you in a certain way that you don't like,check first what you have done to them(be honest and don't stand on a high horse) if you find something you did,be human enough and correct it hopefully they will slowly respond to the change.as always there are those who you should really not waste your hopes on because no matter how much you try they are not going to treat you as you deserve,for these group of people it is allowed for you to be selfish and treat yourself like a king/queen.don't wait for them hoping they will change,move on with your life...they will get on with it later.
i am not advocating for rudeness or anything on those lines,am advocating for us to show each other how we want to be treated while at the same time retaining our respect for ourselves and others...

have a respectful weekend... :-)
