In the past two days, I've had a few run-ins with people in Authority ; you know, people that can make things happen, influence things and whatever else power can do for one. The differences though, shocked me. We have an idea or image of what leaders should, would or can be like but there are different kinds of figures. They are understandably human but I guess power may or may not change things. I have two particularly outstanding ones. I will call one the leader and the other, monsieur unsure. THE   LEADER Physically  - the leader was a little above average in height, dark skinned, clean shaven and bald. Like his Barber did an amazing job plus his whole head seemed to be dipped in olive oil. I took some time looking at it trying to see if that old joke about seeing your reflection on someone's head was true. Outfit well put together, simple but neat clothes consisting of nice sneakers, t-shirt and trousers. Mannerism - His voice was firm but low. It's weird, a...

It's a mixture of excitement and fear. You have thought about it for some time now and you are convinced that a change of environment will be good for you.  It could be to a new city, a new state, country or even continent. You are not sure where, but you really want to move. That's wonderful!! I have done my fair share of moving... a lot actually. Incase it's still a desire but you still haven't found a convincing reason why you should make that move. Let me give you reasons to change location. Why you should move  To Pursue Your Passion or Career (Going where the action is) : You've heard from some of your favorite celebs,  they left their country, or state to come to LA to pursue their dreams, sometimes with no money, no friends and all the uncertainties accompanying a new move just so that they might have their chances at success. Moving for a better career is an extremely valid reason. You might have a dream organization you want to work for or you have skill...

Is it possible to be too ambitious?  Seems the answer is yes.  Many people have had the experience of being told to tone down their desires, fine-tune their ambitions, reduce their goals or the favorite and least noticeable way of saying it "be realistic". Now, being realistic isn't necessarily a bad advice. Problem is, it has been drummed so hard into our ears that, it has become a way for spectators to bring goal getters to their level. We are going too fast here.  What exactly does ambition mean? According to Merriam Webster dictionary Ambition : a particular goal or aim, something that a person hopes to do or achieve : a desire to be successful, powerful, or famous : a desire to do things and be active. Ambition in itself is simply a goal, which every human should have.  Being ambitious is the desire. Now how did being ambitious become something wrong?  The simple answer lies in the word "desire". When it comes to wanting or desiring somet...

As far as I'm concerned, sorry is one the most abused words - used so often but not in the right way. There is a difference between saying I'm sorry and saying sorry. I'm sorry is mostly used to show remorse, used in paying condolences, in sarcasm and wherever applicable. Sorry, on the other hand, is used in many ways which I can't begin to describe. What I want us to talk about is, its necessity in our vocabulary. I've been checking myself for a sometime now. It's actually been a while since I realised that I and many other people I know love this particular word. Want to borrow a pen? Sorry, may I have...? Someone step on you? You address the person by starting with sorry - "sorry, you just stepped on me". Want to get  information on something? We say "sorry, did you or do you..." If you want to be honest, you will recall a good number of times you have said sorry when you are not supposed to. If you look further, you will reali...
