LIVING IN THE PRESENT IN THE FACE OF LIFE CHALLENGES

MY DEAR FRIENDS, my fans and followers how are you today, welcome to " TALENTS, SKILLS AND CAREERS ",,the talkshow platform where lights, insights and Illuminations are beamed on all issues in careers, talents, skills and relationships interactively for you to be the best you can in any area of human engagements you may find yourself. You are welcome. Today, we are looking at the issue of" LIVING IN THE PRESENT MOMENT " as it applies to situations and challenges in careers,professions,relationships and other areas of human engagement. Take a look at man, how and what he thinks, psychologically how he reacts to situations and life challenges. On reflection, you will discover that at every moment, if you are not thinking, engaging in thoughts about yesterday, you are busy thinking about today or tomorrow, in other words it is either your thoughts are dominated by issues of the past, issues of today or those of tomorrow. Simply put,it is either you are living in the past, living in the present or living in the future. Now the world over, living in the present moment is the term used,recognised and indeed the best mode of living if you are not to be helplessly trapped and depressed by what and what of the past or the anxieties of what will or will not be in the future. IF YOUR MIND IS PULLED TOO MUCH INTO AND HELD BY ISSUES THE PAST, EXCEPT YOU HAVE MEDICAL REASON, YOU ARE DEPRESSED, IF DOMINATED AND HELD TOO MUCH FOR TOO LONG BY ISSUES OF THE FUTURE, YOU ARE ANXIETY NEUROTIC. My dear friends, fans and followers, now by nature of life, it does happen that in the course of your career development, professional practice,engagements in relationship,businesses or other forms of human engagement ,challenges particularly major ones do occur sometimes powerful enough to dictate to or hold our thoughts depressingly ransom to only the unpleasant issues of the past or anxiously ransom to how gloomy the future will be.Now, gloomingly as the future may look and depressingly as issues of the past may be, the fact is that allowing your mind being held hostage to and dominated by issues of the past is absolutely of no positive value in terms of solution (s), if this position is to be of any use at all, it is only to the extent tha it is remembered and used to finding solution to and correcting what went wrong in the past MY DEAR FRIEND, NO MORE. Again, allowing your mind to be dominated by and held hostage to anxieties of what will or will not happen tomorrow (in the future) may be destructive, if positioning your mind on the issues of the future is to be of any use at all, it is only to the extent that it is used to package a solution from among the opportunities and situations around you now,MY DEAR FRIEND NO MORE. Ladies and gentlemen, in all of these then lies the wisdom of the necessity of living in the present as being the best mode of life and living. Therefore my friends, my fans, my followers as much as it is not altogether wrong to remember those unpleasant issues that have happened in your career, your profession, your business, your relationships or in any other area of your human engagements, as much as it is not altogether a wrong idea to be conscious and sometimes anxious about the future, excessively holding your mind to unpleasant issues of the past or uncontrollably allowing your mind to be dominated by the anxieties of what may or may not happen in the future, to be point blank could be destructive. As a principle of life and living,learn and apply the art of LIVING IN THE NOW to situations and challenges in your career, your profession, your business, your relationships and other areas of your human dealings as well. I hope you have not only deciphered some lights and illuminations in this piece, you have equally been INSPIRED. IT'S BEING MY PLEASURE DISCUSSING THIS TOPIC WITH YOU, PLEASE LIKE MY PAGE AND SHARE THE POSTS, EXPECT MORE OF THE ILLUMINATIONS.

I hope you are all doing well in any area of human engagement you are. Today please come with me, together we will be looking at and beaming illumination on the issue REALIGNMENT FOR CAREER SUCCESS. Realignment, no permanent friends but permanent interest, caucuses, divide and rule etc are more of politics and politicians.Businesses, corporate entities and most organizations within which career people work are essentially profit oriented for which purpose they employ and deploy people, systems, structures, processes and procedures in the best possible combination in order to achieve the profit making ,corporate objectives.

In career, business, relationship and other areas of human engagements, very often we create the the problem, the impression that we need the validation of every other person, their approval, yes to the extent of it's consistency with the dos and donts of our creator, all of these should be observed, there is culture everywhere, in everythig we do , the culture of your place of birth, career, business and professional cultures. I will not be the one to tell you it is wrong to observe cultures, at least to the extent of their CONSISTENCY but i can tell you that before others validate and/or approve you , you must be you, you must be your own favorite BE YOU OWN FAVORITE.

MY WORDS, MY QUOTES, YOUR COMMENTS

One of the most common phenomena to man is fear, fears in career, fears in business, fears in relationships, fears of rejection but by far the fears of growing to a very old age and that of going into marriage especially by men tend to be very general and outstanding. I tell you, irrespective of the nature of your fear, three of the most outstanding antidotes to defeating fears are :- for you to be of the light, be child-like, more importantly LET YOUR DREAMS BE BIGGER THAN YOUR FEARS.
