GRWM | Living in Abuja #6 | Living alone | A day in my life

I've made a YouTube vlog about how I navigate my life in Abuja. I think Abuja is one of the coolest, quietest cities to live in, but I have a problem with it; it's boring and less fun than Lagos. I really miss Lagos State, with its vibrant energy and bustling atmosphere even though Lagos is overpopulated and has a lot of upside down its still a happening place because everyone wants to live in Lagos, but I want you to know that Lagos is not the way Nollywood portrayed it to be, it's just a movie because you will hustle your ass out, Abuja has its diverse cultural scene and its lively nightlife. quiet life, and as an introverted person, I guess that is working for me, but I still miss that Lagos vibe and hanging out with a few friends. I enjoy exploring Abuja's art galleries, museums, and theaters, which contribute to its vibrant cultural scene.

Joy Is Within Us

What is happiness, and why can we perpetually run once it?

What will it mean to be happy?

What is the distinction between happiness and pleasure?

It is a hot summer day, and you're feeling thirsty. an admirer offers you a refreshing cold glass of fruit drinkhowever does one feel after you see the glass? however does one feel once to drink it?

Will you describe your feeling as happiness or as pleasure? i feel you may say it's a sense of enjoymentthere's a association between these 2 sorts of feelings, and someday one evokes the oppositehowever they're not an equivalent factor.

Pleasure is perceived through the 5 senses, whereas happiness isn't dependent of the 5 senses.

Pleasure may be a sensible feeling that comes from ingestion sensible food, look a decent show, feeling the nice and cozy caressing rays of the sun on a winter day, or having fin at a celebration. Pleasure must do with enjoyment involving the 5 senses and relies on circumstances, objects and folks.

When you ar happy, minor unpleasant events typically don't disturb you, however after you ar sadyou're feeling as if everything is against you. you would possibly atone for this, by ingestion chocolate and sweets, as a result of this offers you pleasure.

You may smoke a coffin nailas a result of it provides you pleasure, however this doesn't cause you to happier, especially, if you acknowledge the actual fact that smoking isn't sensible for your health.

There ar individualsUnited Nations agency concern that if they expertise happiness, it'll be shortly moved out from them. They regard it as a brief state, and ar afraid to expertise it, lest they break downthey need to avoid the pain which may follow once it goes away. They believe that happiness is usually followed by unhappiness.

Others would possibly head to the acute of not seeking it in the leastas a result of they feel unworthy it, and like to avoid it. There also areindividualsUnited Nations agency perpetually look behind their back, wondering, whence can come back the blow.

The physical world is usually in an exceedingly state of flux. At every moment, a brand new factor is being created, sustained, changed, reworked so destroyed. this is often the traditional state of affairs, and nobody will amendment it.

No scenario remains because it is. These ar the laws of nature.

This means that if we have a tendency to attach ourselves to a precise scenariowe have a tendency to ar absolute to expertiseunhappiness sooner or later.

When circumstances amendmentand also the changes don't seem to be to our feelingwe have a tendency to expertise unhappiness. On the opposite hand, if we have a tendency to exercise detachment, nothing will influence our moods. Then, external events don't have anything to try and do with our inner joy and peace of mind.

From the instant of birth, there's looking for happiness, and endless race towards it. it's thought of mutually of the best positive attributes. If we have a tendency to analyze our actions, we have a tendency to see that each one of them ar in a way or another, happiness boundeverybody desires to feel sensible and happy. once circumstances and events ar to our feelingwe have a tendency to ar happy, and after they don't seem to bewe have a tendency to feel miserable.

Happiness Is among USA
When can we expertise this desired state of happiness?


This state emerges once a haul has been resolved, a burden has been raised, or a concern has disappeared.

We conjointly expertise it once or a want or ambition has been consummated, or {when we have a tendency to|once we|after we} acquire or receive one thing we needed considerably. It comes once we ar assured of the love of somebody expensive to USAonce we win a add of cash within the lottery, or once we get sensible grades in class.

What happens at these times? the stress that has been accumulating whereas we have a tendency to were following, waiting, expecting or needing is freethere's no additional a need to run once the desired object or evade a concern, and there's no tension, worry or burden. At this moment happiness seems from among, and there's conjointly inner peace.

At these times, we've no have to be compelled to assume, worry or want a precise object, event or circumstances, as a result of we have a tendency to got or accomplished it. there's a sort of a mental relaxation, that makes happiness manifest.

This is as if the mind, that was stuffed with want, worry or concern is currently devoid of them. there's freedom, a sense of ease, inner peace and joy.

Watch your mind next time you expertise happiness and see what's happening. you may discover that your mind becomes quiet, and its constant chatter stops for a short timeduring this scenario, happiness emerges into your awareness.

How to Discover What You’re Passionate About

A common theme in most writing on goal setting is the need to follow your passions.  Do the things that make you want to get up early in the morning.  There’s only one thing missing: What if you don’t have any passions?   I’m sure everyone on this planet has interests.  But that’s not the same thing.  Enjoying playing video games isn’t the same as spending thousands of hours designing your own.  Your passion has to be something you would work exceptionally hard for. So what do you do, if there is nothing you feel that engaged about?

I once heard a story about a wealthy woman who was looking for a husband....

How to Stop Making Excuses

“I don’t know how.” “It probably wouldn’t have worked anyways.” “I’m too busy.” How often do you catch yourself making excuses. Instead of doing something, you come up with ways to explain your inaction. Excuse-makers are usually seen as weak, lazy or cowardly. I believe this is an unfair generalization. We all make excuses once in a while. Sometimes we make excuses and other times we stop rationalizing and take action. I’m sure most of us can remember times when we procrastinated and wasted days before starting a project. I’m also sure most of us can remember times we started immediately, and finished ahead of schedule. The differences between these two cases could be described as a difference of willpower. When you procrastinated, you lacked willpower. But that isn’t helpful. If willpower is outside your direct control, then claiming willpower as a solution isn’t going to work. Instead, I believe that the answer to stop making excuses lies has two steps: Organizing y...
