How Birthdays And Virginity is Celebrated

Have you ever bothered to find out how other cultures and nations celebrate birthdays and do you wonder why or how virginity is celebrated in Africa?

Welcome to today's post titled Birthdays and Virginity Celebration. We are going right back to our success series on monday but it is weekend and I promised to do a special today.
I do not want to overload this page so read about birthday celebrations around the world (Here and Here and HERE).
What has picked my interest is this story about a man who got married to a 28 year old lady, she was a virgin so he had a party in her honour and to thank the parents for raising such a 'good' girl. The researcher in me went to work to research on cultures and materials that lend their voice to this and here is what I found...

Part 3: What Do Successful People Do?


Hello,

Welcome to part 3 of the series. Over the past 2 days we have talked about what succesful people do and have understood that success is not a selective lady she accepts just whoever is man enough to make the little changes in their life to accomodate her.

Here is one other thing successful people do: successful people stay motivated, if they haven't won then they haven't finished. They fight with discouragement and failure until they have worn it down & it gives way to them. Let me explain better...

PART 2: What Do Successful People Do?


Hello,

Welcome to today's inspirational piece. If you have enjoyed it thus far, it is time for you to begin forwarding and broadcasting it as a daily gift to our friends and enemies alike. Let us inspire as many people as we can together.

Now to the Part 2 of the topic started on the last post, What do successful people do?
I learnt this one not too long ago and trust me, it has helped me become a more successful and productive person.

Successful people do not go on 'long' vacations or take 'long' breaks. Not even for a recent achievement as a matter of fact, successful people PLAY WITH WORK. Let me explain this one to you,

What Do Successful People?


Hello,

Today we are going to start up a series which will run for a while because this topic is very wide. We will be looking at what successful people do.

First of all disabuse your mind that success may be far from you or that success is you coming second to that particular lady or gentleman who always seems to get it right or come first.

If you have done that, it means we have an understanding that success has no preferences and you too can be successful beyond your imagination. Let us look at what successful people do that we can learn from and become successful ourselves.

Plan Ahead


Hello,

As the picture says, plan ahead. There is no way a task can be completed without some form of planning, a popular saying is 'He who fails to plan, plans to fail'.

Do you want to be successful? Do you want to be debt free? Do you want to .....?
Wanting it is one step and planning is much more important. Some of us are not used to planning, we live our lives expecting time and chance to work out all things in the end.

If we believe that he who does not work should not eat then we agree that in order to eat, we must plan to eat. The problem with waiting for all things to work out in the end is that it only works out in the end. Those who have planned ahead and executed their plans have things work out for them from the beginning to the end. They move from one job to the next, from one success to the next, from one financial level to the next.

The Power Of A Smile


The message for today is all about a smile.

I remember the times when as a radio presenter with 5 other guys in the studio early in our working together experience, we usually used to have arguements within the 3 minutes a song was playing on air. As soon as the song ended and the mics were switched on, we had to function like nothing happened else it would come accross to our listeners.

While some presenters were horrible at this, I (a few of us actually) was okay with getting my happy vibe on even though I just came from a minor disagreement. My key was to talk with a smile on my face and it was only when we had sorted things out after the show that we would listen back and be like, OMW- No one would believe what was going down few minutes before this happily voiced part.

Go For It

Is there something you want to achieve? is there something people around you have told you is good but too good for you? As this picture says, good things happen when you go for it.

There is nothing that is above you, there should only be things beneath you. Things you wouldnt stoop low to do but once what you intend to do is not wrong, my dear, do yourself the favour of going for it. At best you convert those who had little faith in you and at its worst, you have learned a useful lesson.
