I WAS INFLUENCED?!!






Hello I'm back again.

 This time with a short story... a story about how I WAS INFLUENCED. 





I was walking down the street on my way home from library and I bumped into my friend from university.

 Normally with us its just a quick ' Yo' and 'Whats good?' this time we actually stopped for a short conversation...

 Now this conversation was literally about 30 seconds.

 He came across as so happy while speaking to me that it actually made me happy!
Not to say that I was down in the dumps or anything but he was able to boost my energy, making me even happier, though all we said was what we were about to do...

 FYI he said "I'm good bro, just about to go gym."
I replied "oh, that's calm, I'm about to go season chicken for the week."

 Many of you reading must be really confused about why I felt so happy after this interaction or even what influenced me and I don't blame you. Its extremely hard to describe what it was but this is a blog so let me attempt to do so. I love to see my people happy and I love bumping into friends...

 So many people have so much going on in their heads that don't even look happy at a glance. I see my friend, Manny, walking down the road with a big smile on his face and I don't know if it was on purpose or not but you know when people are happy and they have a little bop in their walk? YUP, he was doing that to. So I could instantly tell he was in a good mood before he even opened his mouth.

 We had the conversation and continued on our paths. Normally after seeing a friend the buzz goes down and I resume back to however I was feeling BUT this time I STILL HAD IT. Its definitely an unusual thing to experience, well for me anyway but I believe its a good one.

 One that I want to have much more of.

 One that I want to be able to bring to others.
I feel as if we don't think about how we can rub of and impact someone with an interaction lasting as little as 30 seconds with our emotions. Imagine everyone being so happy that we all just boost each others happiness. I understand that life happens and its not good to mask/fake your true emotions so we wont always be able to do it but I think we should still aspire to do so.

 Thank you for reading this, I hope you enjoyed it.

Being Independent in University and life

Being Independent in University and Life Welcome back blog family.  It's your Grandad AO and The Growth Never Stops .  EVERYBODY NEEDS INDEPENDENCE , especially people going to university. University most definitely teaches people independence by throwing them in the deep-end. Forcing us students to cook and learn how to fend for ourselves. Even force ourselves to go into our most hated lectures at 9AM! But with saying that, you can easily be a university student and not be independent.  We all need to understand that IT IS ONLY US ON OUR JOURNEY'S in life. I'm not saying that we are all alone in this walk of lives or that we don't have people there for us such as friends and family. What I am saying is we are the only ones who go through exactly what we go through when we go through it. WE are the only one who decide where we go on this journey with our actions. I don't believe anyone's purpose on this earth is to be a follower, yes some peo

STOP THIS

STOP THIS!! STOP letting the length of the journey stop you from getting where you want to be. You Do not need to conqor the world in a day, take a breath. Slow down.  So many times when I think about what I want to do in life I think that's it's such a hard and long of a journey it will be.  MLK said “Faith is taking the first step, even when you don't see the whole staircase . ” so we need to have faith in order to know that we will eventually get to where we need to be ( the top of the staircase).  Once we have faith in ourselves, faith that we are more than capable of completing whatever we've set out to do.  I'm juggling a lot at the moment at university and its very easy for me to feel overwhelmed with big and little tasks from dissertations, going gym, basketball practice, cooking and the Blog, Youtube/ podcast however really and truly I am going to keep on feeling overwhelmed until I know I can do all I wish to & decide to

HOW TO BE PRODUCTIVE

HOW TO BE PRODUCTIVE Hello everyone, I'm back again. Let me quickly give you some pointers on how to be productive.  Being productive will allow you to get more tasks completed within the day.  So lets get started.  The first thing which can allow you to be more productive in the day is having more time in the day. How can you have more time in the day??? WAKE  UP EARLY Yes I said it. And I said it because it's true. However, just because it's true doesn't mean that it is easy. I've tried to do it before and successfully did for a few weeks but eventually, I fell out of it. To wake up early it means that you have to go to bed early too, and when you live with your friends at university it can be extremely hard if you are like me and struggle with self-discipline.  Waking up early is so advantageous because you don't have many things if anything to distract you. Nobody is texting your phone, nobody saying let's do this. Ad
