CultureWhich Nigerian Tribe Demands The Highest Bride Price? by Eggcelent(op): 6:19am On Aug 01, 2017
Growing Up, The Widespread Idea In My Part Of The Country Is That Igbo Marriages Are The Most Expensive To Consummate Due To The Perceived High Bride Price.

However, After Travelling To & Residing In Some Other Parts Of The Country, I Have Since Realised That Above Belief Is Not Entirely Factual.

So, Here We Are; Which Tribe Demands The Highest Bride Price?

CareerDo These 6 Things—if You Want To Be Poor by Eggcelent(op): 9:20am On Jul 30, 2017
Rolling in money picked from your money tree in the backyard of your mansion? Then you don’t need to read this. X out. Move on. See ya later.

OK, for those of you still with me, I’m sorry to hear that you’re not already rich. But don't worry. Do not worry. The longer you read stuff I write, the quicker you can stop needing to read stuff I write.

So let’s get right to the point: There are three types of people in this world when it comes to money. And the purpose of you reading this is to see clearly which one you are and make any necessary adjustments.

There are…

1. Those who say money doesn't matter and scorn the world.

I don't know if I would go so far as to say these people are fools, but… I'd come close. Maybe more like fool-ish.

They're definitely broke. And they're probably not reading this article, so let's not bother trying to help enlighten them right now. There's not much hope anyway. People like this are pretty stubborn, I've found. They think they're better than everyone else, when in fact, they're simply scared to take responsibility for their life and face reality in its entirety.

2. Those who say they want to be financially free and truly mean it.

So long as money doesn't consume your life? Kudos. You're smart. And rare. Keep pushing, and you'll arrive at your destination shortly.

3. Those who say they want to be successful and think they mean it—but actually don't.

You, my friend, are the majority. The good news is you're probably not lonely. The bad news is you're surrounded by idiots.

Never fear! I am here to set you free from your shackles of ignorance with my firey sword of truth that I carry with me at all times for just such an occasion! This post is for you.

Now I know what you're thinking. You're thinking, How do I know if I'm a #3? I'm glad I knew you'd think that. I'll try to make this as painless as possible.

If you are financially unstable (meaning anything from being deep in debt to not having at least six months expenses in savings) while simultaneously doing two or three or one or more of the following things, you're a 3'er…

• Watching TV more than two hours a week (the average American watches five a day)

• Working less than 10-12 hours a day

Sound like a lot? Google "who invented the 8 hour work day?" I'll give you a hint: His political affiliation rhymes with shmommunist.

People have been working 12+ hour work days since the beginning of time. More like 16 hours. I'm reading a biography of Billy Graham right now, and as a kid, he used to wake up at 2:30 a.m., milk the cows, do other chores, go to school, come home and do chores, do homework, and go to bed at 10 p.m. And it's not like this was the stone ages. It was the 1930's.

• Working less than six days a week

• Reading/studying less than 2-4 hours every day of every week of foreveruntilyourerich.

Wait… reading?!? You think I have time to readhuh You don't know my life, Preston. I've got kids, I've got a job, I've … Let me stop you right there. You're a #3. Super-sized.

• Consumer shopping ever

• Going on Facebook/Twitter/Instagram more than once at night after a long productive day of serious work and progress (the average American spends over two hours a day on their cell phone's apps and Internet)

The point is almost everyone says they want to have a better life, and almost everyone sincerely believes they're doing their best to make that happen… but they're not. They're kidding themselves. You're not on Facebook every five seconds because you enjoy it. You're on Facebook every five seconds because you're avoiding reality.

The truth is, nine times out of 10 (there are exceptions), you have exactly what you want. You're comfortable right where you are. You're scared to change. You're not willing to pay the price that freedom requires. You value comfort over growth and prosperity. You say you want to change, and you make what seems to you like valiant efforts, but when it comes right down to it? You're not serious. You don't really want it. Because I can promise you this with all my powers of promising: The people in this world who really want something get it. Nothing can stop them.

Where is your faith? Faith is nothing without action—not just any action. MASSIVE action. Sure you may want it a little bit. But not enough. You don't want it at the level life requires you to want it at in order to actually get it.

You have to want it like a UFC fighter wants that belt. Like an NFL player wants that Super Bowl ring. Like an Olympic synchronized swimmer wants that gold medal. Do you know how bad those synchronized swimmers want that gold medal? Neither do I, but it's more than you want financial freedom probably!

Am I saying your life has to be all work and no play? Yes. That's exactly what I'm saying. Until you have at least a normal stabilized financial situation. Then you can start dialing it down. We need rest and play for our health. But our bodies can handle six months without much of it. And that's all it should take for you to get up and running.

You can do it. So do it already. Stop playing around.

Investment7 Ways To Persist When Everything In You Wants To Give Up by Eggcelent(op): 3:24pm On Jul 22, 2017
Have you ever felt like your lungs were going to explode?

That’s what it felt like during my hike up Machu Picchu.

The ancient city sits more than 2,400 meters above sea level and my group eagerly started climbing just after 5 a.m. I ended up alone, behind the group, with more than 1,100 meters left to go.

I never imagined the journey would be so difficult (evidenced by the shoes I chose to wear). I worked out regularly, but that didn’t prepare me for the altitude. I couldn’t seem to get enough air.

I wanted to give up. My body was begging me to stop. My weary mind wanted to follow suit.

But I persisted. And I made it to the top—lungs and heart intact.

Here are the seven things that helped me keep going that day, when everything in me wanted to quit. If you find yourself in a situation where you want to give up, these lessons can help you, too.

1. Ignore everyone else.
In the beginning of the climb, I only saw the people passing me. Every time I saw someone hiking with ease, I felt bad about myself. But when I stopped worrying and stopped comparing everyone else’s journey to my own, I began to focus on my own mission and how I was going to achieve it.

As you work toward your dream, it can be easy to get distracted when you see others achieving their goals easier, faster, better than you. It can make you feel inadequate and unsatisfied with your own progress. But when it comes to conquering a goal, what’s happening with others is irrelevant when it detracts from your ability to move forward.

When tackling a difficult task, you need every ounce of energy you can muster. Make sure to channel it to a place that will propel you forward.

2. Become your own biggest supporter.
When I started the hike, I wasn’t alone. But within 10 minutes, I was behind and alone. At first I was frustrated my companions abandoned me in my time of need. But then I realized my burden wasn’t theirs to bear.

Although it can be energizing to have others around to motivate and support you, having them there is a luxury, not a requirement. That lesson allowed me to turn inward and find in myself the strength and determination to keep going. I began to encourage and high-five myself with every step.

Sometimes on the road to success, you have to walk alone. If you find yourself in that position, find a way to give yourself what you need to continue.

3. Stop and appreciate the little things.
I began the hike before the sun was up. As I continued to climb, it started to peek around the mountain, giving glimpses of the beauty all around me. It was magical. During the catch-my-breath breaks, I marveled at the privilege of seeing nature in all her beauty. In those moments, I gave no thought to my struggle. I was too busy being grateful for being right there.

It can be easy to focus all your energy on reaching your ultimate goal. But if the only thing you can see is your end destination, you’ll miss the beauty of the journey along the way. The new experiences and welcome surprises provide much-needed fuel to keep going.

4. Focus on the next step.
It discouraged me to think how far away I was from the top. So I reframed my goal into mini-milestones that made the next steps more manageable. Just take one more step, I thought. OK, now just get over to those stones. Alright, once you get to that bench you can stop and rest for a few minutes.

When your goal seems too big, it can feel impossible, which opens the door for resistance to creep in. By breaking your target into bite-sized pieces, you can keep yourself in motion and build momentum.

5. Throw your watch out the window.
Before the trek, I read that most people make it to the top of Machu Picchu in about 45 to 60 minutes. It took me longer. When I focused on the time it was supposed to take, I was frustrated at myself for not being good enough or fast enough. But nobody cared how long it took me to get to the top and I shouldn’t have, either. All that mattered was completing my journey.

As you work on reaching your goals, stop looking at the clock. Stop measuring yourself against someone or something else. It will only serve to distract you from focusing on what you need to do right now to advance.

6. Stop looking for a way out.
Not everyone who goes to Machu Picchu hikes. You can take a bus straight to the top and save yourself the emotional and physical strain. Early on in my climb, I thought about retreating or waving down one of the buses on their way up.

When your pain is at the forefront, it is natural to want to make it go away. But when you invest time looking for a way to abort your journey, you waste precious energy that could be used to help you overcome momentary pain and discomfort for long-term growth.

7. Acknowledge your limitations.
I had to be honest with myself. I was having trouble getting air and I couldn't keep the pace of the group. Pushing my body to the limit by trying to keep a faster pace wasn’t going to go well for me. My path needed to be different, and that’s OK. After implementing my new strategy, the journey was less grueling.

Your road to success might not look like everyone else’s. That’s OK. Everyone’s situation is different. Instead acknowledge where you are, so you can give yourself what you need to be successful.

As you work to achieve your goals, there will be obstacles, bumps and bruises along the way. When the journey becomes more uncomfortable than what you are used to, it can be easy to throw in the towel and retreat.

But if you follow these lessons, you can find the strength to keep going in the midst of difficulty. And when you persist, you’ll discover the reward was worth the effort.

Don’t give up.
