PERFECTIONISM? SCREW THAT.

-
I have been so overwhelmed of late.
 School work; plenty of assignments, my side hustle and this thing called adulting. I have been struggling to find time to do anything. So, I haven’t written in a while. Heck, I have not done anything in a while.
I keep procrastinating things, telling myself that “so so so time will be the perfect time to do a particular thing”
The so so so time will come and go, I still wouldn’t do nothing. With this, I have not accomplished anything.

Truth is, there is not a perfect time to do things. You just have to do it. Perfect moments are way too hard to come by.
We think there’s a perfect time to read, get married, have a baby, even eat. And then us writers think there’s a perfect time to write. We have to be “in the mood”. We believe we need to have some comfort food, put on a playlist, have a serene environment.
I’m calling Nonsense on that. Because as I’m writing this, I’m tired. I’m tired physically and mentally.
I’m exhausted, straight out of the bathroom with my hair in a net, playing some trap music.
Despite that, I’m writing. And I’m so glad I’m doing this right now. It feels so goooood.

Screw the perfectionism. Screw waiting for that perfect moment. Get things done. Make things happen and screw the excuses.

HOW TO MAKE YOUR SQUAD - SQUAD GOALS

Post written by :Jayjay Folayan The doors open, you walk in with your friends. You’ve all got matching tees/jeans/shoes/hairstyles or are just coordinating colors. Everything is in slow mo. People gasp and gush as they look at you. That’s right, you’re with your squad. Being part of and maintaining a squad is not easy as it looks. Don’t get me wrong, I am an advocate of interacting with everyone and anyone, but sometimes you need to surround yourself with people that understand you and understand themselves. There are basically two types of people:        i.           SOCIAL : They are interactive, fun loving and free. They know how to make friends and how to keep them. They are very lively and make good friends because you’ll never want to leave them.      ii.           ANTI-SOCIAL : They are sometimes shy and timid. They don’t know...

Photo was gotten from his IG @kunlemyk (Post written by: Kunle Myk) Listening to the track “Plantashun boys” by the then Plantashun boys (BlackFace, 2face and Faze) off their Album ‘The Beginning: Body & Soul’ makes me realize how determination brings you success no matter the obstacles or challenges (2face is an example of this). Ever woken up one morning thinking of the personal assignments, group assignments and exams you have to study for and you just stay in bed contemplating your whole Life? Then you struggle to stay off bed, freshen up and get to the road to board a cab to school but you get struck by the sight of the large number of people at the junction who are struggling to get cab to school. I have friends who tell me when they get to the junction and they see people struggling for cabs, they go back home to sleep. Thinking of the whole stress one has to go through in school then some thoughts crosses one’s mind ‘Do I really need this Degree?”
