Are New Year Resolutions Overrated?

-

Welcome to Limitless! 

On Resolutions 

I promise to hit the gym every other day this year. I really need to keep fit. This is my new year resolution. Just kidding. It is unrealistic for me. I know I only hit the gym 3 or 4 times last year, so it is laughable to think I would be able to keep up with 4 days in the gym per week. But, is it actually possible? Of course, it is; as long as I don’t get tired mid year. 

Whatever thing(s) you’ve resolved to start doing this year, just make sure you have checks in place. Your checks could be a friend, siblings, your spouse, a reminder on your phone, or even the reality of things. For instance, if I decided I would be hitting the gym every other day because I feel unfit and have a lower back pain. Then, the reality of why I started in the first place, along with how I felt when I wasn’t doing it should set me on track. 

All I’m trying to say is remember the reason for the resolution whenever you seem to have discontinued the resolution. 

On Goals 

If I had a goal to make more money this year, it would just be smart of me to carve out the ways I plan on making the money right? Do I want to start a business, invest more, have an online class, or start a service? How do I intend on accomplishing them? Of course there is no need to rush, but have them at the back of your mind. I should not just vaguely write that I want to make more money without having a plan whether in my mind or in writing. 

It is also very important to have plans and goals. And I’m not saying this because I’m too much of a serious person🤣. Writing down plans just give you an edge over allowing life feed you with anything. Instead, you are in control of your decisions, because goals hang intently on decisions. 

Just in case you are about to reply me with “God is my plan”. Lol. Well, you still have a plan. Or maybe you are saying, “God’s plan is my plan”. If God’s plan is your plan, then, you definitely need to start seeking His face on the things he wants you to do this year. Your life should not be a riddle to you. 

On Prophecies 

God has given you specific instructions for the year, or maybe He has spoken to you through an anointed minister of God, you should prayerfully hold on to them. Make sure you do not forget or get tired mid year, in the event that they aren’t fulfilled yet. Scripture says, ”This vision is for a future time. It describes the end, and it will be fulfilled. If it seems slow in coming, wait patiently, for it will surely take place. It will not be delayed.“
‭‭Habakkuk‬ ‭2‬:‭3‬ ‭NLT‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/116/hab.2.3.NLT. 

I want you to trust and believe that whatever things God has said about you will come to manifestation. Just hold on to Him tightly, spend more time with Him, and enjoy your relationship with Him. 

To answer the title question- In my opinion, new year resolutions are not overrated. 

I really hope and pray you accomplish your goals and plans for this year. I’m rooting for you!

The Universe City

Hiiiiii there! I hope you are well and alright. I know you've taken that first step and if you've not, I sincerely hope you are already making plans to start.  Interestingly, I would be telling you about my experience in the university today! It was a rollercoaster my dear. It was filled with laughs, tears, close-knitted friendships and lots of patience.  Don’t laugh! Well, as a fresh secondary school graduate in 2016, I was over the moon that I would be getting into the higher institution soon. I had already passed all my qualifying exams for my admission. You know, it was just so relieving to be done with the bulky subjects, ringing of bells and annoying seniors. It felt good. I didn't even know about it yet!😂 About a week before I got into uni, my mum called me and she said "you know you are about to start another phase of life. I would like to describe where you are going to as a ' universe city '. I just started laughing, i was like osheyyy, see pun.  The

Baby Steps!

     Hello there! My heart is bursting with so much excitement right now. I can finally get to express myself and share my views with you. Of course, i'm taking baby steps! The first step is always the one that looks so high and difficult. Well, you should know that before a baby takes its first step, it stands first. That is, you have to make a deliberate decision to start whatever you want to do.       I know it's very hard not to procrastinate especially during a period like this but you just ‘gast’ to ginger yourself and get up. The truth is, if you keep procrastinating, you might end up not doing it or might have wasted time. So, try that recipe today! Start the online course! Just do whatever you've always had  in your mind to start. Today is the new tomorrow my gee! As for me, I look forward to sharing unlimited gists with you, take you on rollercoasters of fictional stories and discuss exciting topics on relationship. I promise it would be a fun ride for us.

Spotting Red Flags!

Wait! Stop! Hollup! Don't go there! It will end in tears. Hello darling! I hope you had a fruitful week. Welcome to your resting place!  Today, I'd be telling you about spotting red flags before a relationship. Red flags are warning signs that reveal why the relationship you are about to start won't work. It could also be signs that show why you should get out of that relationship immediately. These are 4 red flags that are very easy to spot:  1. No vibes/ Lack of energy : This is when their energy does not match your energy. You send your bomb pictures and they are just like 'nice pictures'. Hello? Any stranger could say that, don't I deserve hypes too? Sigh! It could also be that the way they talk or chat is always monotone. No form of ginger! You start the conversation with so much energy and they reply you with a very flat tone. You guys wiĺl not just flow because they can't hold lively conversations. This should not be ignored. It's either you strai

My Scary Experience with Miss Koi Koi

Yayyyy!!! I get to talk to you again! Hello there sweetie. I hope you had a productive week. Welcome to your resting place, Limitless. Story story, once upon a time! (You were replying in your head right😂). Today, I would be telling you about my very scary but interesting experience with Miss Koi Koi. I stayed in the boarding house during my secondary school education. If you did too, you probably know the different stories we hear about spirits or ghosts that haunt hostels. For example, bunk shakers, the hanging man, bush baby and of course, Miss Koi Koi.  In case you’ve never heard the story of Miss Koi Koi also known as Madam Koi Koi, I would explain briefly. Miss Koi Koi is a legend about a very fashionable lady who was a teacher at a Federal Government Secondary School. She was known for her red lipstick and the signature pair of red high heel shoes she always wore. She was very mean and saucy making her one of the most feared teachers. The real deal started when she had a brawl

Spotting Green Flags

Helloooo!!! Welcome back to Limitless! I hope you had a productive week. I sincerely hope you get to relax and rest well this weekend.  About two weeks ago, I talked about spotting red flags, those warning signs that show why you shouldn’t start that relationship. If you’ve not read it, you should do that. You should know that I am not just a preacher of war, I am a preacher of love😂; therefore, I would be addressing how to spot green flags today.  Green flags are those convincing signs that show why you are ready to be in the relationship. They are the ‘go ahead’ signals you get when you are conflicted about whether to start a relationship or not. I’m here to assure and show you that while you are stalling, there are some things that signify you are ready.  1. It feels right This green flag simply means you are sure about the person. Your doubts are dissipating. You don’t have that instinct that says something is wrong anymore. Their energy matches yours or is even more than. The vib
