admitting your weaknesses to your enemy

some say, a way to get out of trouble is to admit our wrongs...which is true...again others say admitting our weaknesses to our enemy makes them have a upper hand over us...do we want that? Enemy does not necessarily mean some one you do not like or hate but can also mean a rival either in work , school or in general society...weakness can be defined in fear of something or someone ...fear to achieve..fear to communicate..if we admit these to rivals in a group or to an individual ..we set ourselves far behind from reaching our targets and goals..because we admit it ...we give an upper hand or a head start for that person to get past us in whatever we doing ..and will take maximum advantage over us....A way of avoiding this is never admit a weakness...be bold n decision making....have maximum faith in your abilities...and use them to maximum...

Action speak louder than words.......

woooooowwww..i was like does this really apply in our everyday life??? well, yes it does. You see word of mouth though sweet and reassuring is nothing more than just anyone will want to hear. An example is when you have a little argument either with a friend , family member or lover, if you were wrong ,the other party will be expecting only one thing, an apology...a sorry...in other words, and if you do not even mean , you just say as long as i say sorry we are at peace, but look at it different using action ,taking her some flowers, preparing a meal , taking them out for a movie, or even just taking a walk with them, spending time with them, appreciating them, thereby apologising will make it easier, because of using action....action is a powerful communcation tool which never be ignored but used frequently..Roy Chikumbi

Music is important, appreaciate it, love it, litsen to it .....and enjoy it.....Roy Chikumbi

Primary relationship

The first type is traditional couples. They share a basic belief system and philosophy of life.

The second type is independents couples. They stress their individuality. The relationship is important but never more important than each person’s individual identity.

The third type is separates couples. They live together, but they view their relationship more as a matter of convenience than a result of their mutual love or closeness.

angels and demons

when we talk about personality disorders we talk about people with two faces. this is what i mean when i talk about angels and demons. Most people now days have 2 sides in them. One side is when they conceal their biggest and darkest secrets and the other is where they look like the msot perfect person on the world. These kind of peolple are not the kind who will be very good in relationships no matter in friendship or any kind of that sort . that is why it is very important to draw the line between these people when u see signs of these people's characteristics changing.

phrases we tend to use

we come from a culture where communication now has become "advanced". What do i mean by "advanced"? Well we all know very well that now days communication has gone into the next level whereby people communicate with not only normal terms but they add on other "terms" in their topic conversation's. Im referring these "terms" as in valgure words used by people nowdays mostly students which somtimes are very shocking to here and with these terms being used it doesnt refelect on where they picked it up from it refeclts back on the our pur parents who have brought us uo to say such things. People always say that they want to make their parents proud by achieving all sorts of grades and becoming some famous person one day. But where does this all go to when words like these are used in away it is dissapointing our parent san literally we are putting them down. That is why it is very important for us to think before we let out what we're are speaking because it refeclts not on us but our parents.

relationship,frienships and relative

relationship,relatives and friendship all these need to be renew or let me say the are like fuel in the car,you cant drive it the whole entire year without putting fuel, that's the point i want to illustrate.we see marriage people after few years of marriage the start cheating or getting bored of the marriage its because we are not putting the spark back.do nice funny things you used to do make it go back as if it was the time you guys fell in love in that way you are watering the grass to be green again.just like friends its not normal everything his the one visiting,his the one buying you presents for your birthday let it be equal visit him as wel in that way you wont lose interest in each other.same applys to relative just because you are related does not mean love should side on one side,let the love be equal and visit each other oftenly to renew the love in that way you wont say he or she is my distannt cazen because this is exactly the truth.Roy chikumbi
