So of late there have been so many celebrations in Kenya because of two reasons: June babies (who rock btw) are too many and it's graduation season (congrats to all graduates). It is in the admist of all these festivities that most people go broke and forget about their daily obligations. I was to post this last week on my birthday but I also fell victim to the distractions that come along with the celebratory mood. It is when I realized life is too short to just wait for such moments to celebrate.
This post just aims at triggering that inner daredevil in you to start celebrating life every single day and not just to wait for some event to throw a party because guess what...your life is a party!!! So live it like one.
How many people do you know keep saying that they thank God for a new day but do not live like they are actually grateful for it? Think about it this way most of you reading this post have already bunked 20 years of your life....so give or take we have about 50 more years to live. If you celebrate every weekend that means you have 2,500 more weekends to go but if you celebrate everyday...You have 18,250 more days....need i say more?
You see that nice pair of heels that you have been eyeing at the store but you keep postponing when you will buy it? Go buy it nowww!! Why do you have to be sitted at a couch that you hate so much for the next ten years when you can sell it and buy the one of your choice? Nobody is assured of tomorrow so if you can do something today...do it!!!
Without a doubt, life can be boring and routine makes it even worse for most of us...so what am I saying? Do not try and be the one who lives through each WEEK day just looking foward to the weekend...Let us eradicate that mentality of; oooh Mondays are boring...and so on...I do not have to keep up with the phrase live every moment like it's your last...cliche but it's true...
Only God knows your exit plan. Do you want it to find you sulking at your office desk counting down the hours to Friday? Celebrate life loves!! Life is a gift...savour every single moment as if it was your last. That's all for today!! Hope you enjoyed the read. Before i forget...a biiig thankyou to all those who wished me a great birthday...Am still accepting belated gifts...(all year-long)**kisses

MAN-CHILD PROBLEMS
Is it me or this year is going way too fast? I am so certain that most of you haven't achieved those new year resolutions. Just a reminder...six months to go before carrying them foward to 2016...Tick tock...So today I want us to analyze the man-children in the society and for those who have no idea of who a man-child is...don't worry I got you covered. According to my own observations a man-child is a guy who exhibits the following characteristics: a guy who waits upon his girl/mum/maid to clean up after him almost all the time, a guy who keeps whining about things going wrong in his life and does nothing to rectify that, a guy who drinks like there is no tomorrow (blacks out every time you go out), a guy who still bums at his boys' cribs playing PS all day long with no side hustle or even a main hustle and last but definitely not least, a male chauvenist.
The last trait always gets to me because even Einstein admitted that men and women can never be equal because it is rather obvious that women are the superior gender (power to the women!!). Didn't see that coming...huh? Men...don't hate me...if you got beef take it up with dear old Einstein. This being said, what makes a man-child? A woman ofcourse because as much as women have been termed as superior, superiority comes with extra duties and responsibilities. All these mama's boys fall under this category by default and their mamas are to blame. All those girlfriends that do every small thing for their men, y'all are just creating a man-child and yet you complain.
It goes without saying that some of the problems we face in life we bring upon ourselves and it takes time before it dawns on us that we are at the verge of creating monsters within us. Man-children are evidently annoying and we keep hearing the way we can't change a man so what is the wayfoward to getting rid of this type of 'men'? The same way a probox can't be converted into an Aston Martin ( who saw the one in Kenya!?)is the same way we can't change man-children but I tend to believe if you point out to them what they really are, they are deemed to correct some of their flaws to prove that they are not man-children. So if you see your brother drifting to this category, refer him to this post(Marketing skills on fleek) ...help him out and let's contribute in leaving this world better than we found it. That is all for today loves. Kisses **

SIDE-LINER...Yay? or Nay?
So, did you know 70% of the choices we make everyday are not inspired by our own minds? Well if you did...props for that piece of valuable knowledge.However, i believe that this is a good thing because if it was the other way round...the world we live in would not even exist. I have a friend who got me thinking about how amazing it would be to watch our lives from the sidelines like every once in a while. (I know i have weird friends) lol. He explained it in such a way he almost got me convinced...let me try and explain it the way he did.
"Let's say you were invisible for a day like your day off the real world and nobody knows that it is your day off. Just imagine, you get to walk around and just see how people you know act when you are not around and you see all the backstabbing that you hear about ...as in you will be there when they are actually doing it, sounds cool...huh?"
I think I have tried to summarize it as much as I could...trust me, it was a long conversation/argument. At first I was extremely skeptical and I did not support the idea but after thinking about it for like two weeks, it made sense. For those who have forgotten the name of this blog...the dynamic changes of life are the main driving forces that make us want to emulate others. Remaining stagnant gives us a sense of comfort and a false sense of security. This being said, it is definitely a 'side-liner nay' for me. Yes the thought may sound fun but let us be real...the thrill of the unknown drives us to look forward to the future so count me out on that invisible day off. Besides, there is already someone who watches it all from the side-lines but that is a story for another day.
Our lives are way cooler than any blockbuster movie and if you do not believe that, I guess you should quit living a risk-free life. You want to sky-dive...go do it ASAP. You want to participate in a championship...go do it!These young bodies will get old sooner than you think. This being my birthday month, I am living everyday like it is my last day (the world hasn't gotten enough of me though so do not worry). Change all that worry to an opportunity, all that fear to constructive risks and at the end of the day you will be happy...exhilarated..and you will most definitely thank me. C'mon, live as if you are starring in your reality show that is on top of the charts. You have the remote to your life so use it wisely! We may not have the chance to have a side-liner experience but you can always recreate your day's events and always make them worth the memory.That's it for today loves!! Have a great week. **kisses
