pocohantas: I like to think there is no right and wrong to this question. I might be wrong though.
A job well done is it...a job done with time can be rushed and mistakes can be discovered...so a job well done is a job that's being executed with total concentration and accuracy regardless of the time.
Anwons: In the 21st century, people tend to misunderstand and misrepresent what hard working means.
The death of a lady along my street recently prompted this post. She sells food(mama put) which of course, those that knows will know better. Early hours rising and late house sleep on daily basis.
While some people were discussing about her demise, emphasis were mostly laid on how hardworking she was. Due to intrigues and feelings within the atmosphere, I couldn't speak my mind to them, to let them know that being hard working isn't all about restlessness, no time for one's self and so forth in this era anymore, rather, it is one ability to maximize time productively and at the same time, achieving your set goals with little pressure.
At this point, sharing experiences may help some persons on this forum to have a rethink.
So, what is your description of being hard working?
Hard work to me is simply consistency,cos it ain't easy to be consistent....it's consistency pays,just as we say hard work and working smart pays.

Soundz01: The benefits of melancholic art for coping are scientifically proven.
Reba McEntire, a country music singer, claimed in a 2018 tweet that singing sorrowful songs "has a way of healing a situation" for her. It brings the pain into the open, into the sunshine, and out of the shadows." McEntire's statements touch on a paradox that has been dubbed "one of the most intriguing topics in the history of music scholarship" by psychologists. Why do people like sad music, for example? Many of the world's most popular songs, from Beethoven to the Beatles, are sad. People have a specific fondness for sad movies, mournful books, and other types of melancholy artistic expression, and this tendency is not limited to music.
But why is that? According to studies on what some scholars refer to as "pleasurable sadness," people love sad art for a variety of reasons. "Feelings of being moved or touched have been highlighted in several recent research," says Jonna Vuoskoski, an associate professor in the Department of Musicology at the University of Oslo in Norway.
According to some of Vuoskoski's findings, those with high degrees of empathy are the most moved by sad music or films, and that this emotion is linked to greater enjoyment. "It appears that elements of empathy connected to sentiments of compassion and strong identification with fictitious characters in novels and films are the greatest predictors of sad music appreciation," she says.
Somber music and other kinds of art, she discovered, generate emotions that many people regard as delightful, in addition to their potential to move people. "Nostalgia, peace, and wonder were also clearly obvious" in response to sad art, and many individuals like these emotions, she and her study colleagues said.
Another view is that a person's sorrow can be alleviated by experiencing something sorrowful. The musical preferences of patients diagnosed with severe depressive illness were investigated in a 2019 study from the University of South Florida. It's commonly known that depressed people gravitate toward "sad stimuli," such as music, according to the authors. According to some experts, this is a type of maladaptive attraction that maintains or intensifies people's feelings of sadness. The USF team, on the other hand, was not convinced by this theory. "Rather than any desire to create or maintain sad sensations, the significant appeal of sad music to persons with [depression] may be connected to its calming benefits," they stated.
"A piece of art or a song that a person may relate to can bring solace without the added burden of social interaction with another person."
Others who examine the appeal of sad music claim that listening to it might help people cope with sadness and loss. "We have built-in psychological, hormonal, and physiological systems that help dealing with [these feelings]," says Tuomas Eerola, a music cognition professor at Durham University in the United Kingdom, adding that music stimulates these systems.
While chatting to a well-intentioned friend or family member might bring consolation and a shoulder to weep on, Eerola believes that listening to a break-up music can provide a deeper level of relief. "In moments of loss and despair, the fact that the music or art is non-interactive is actually an advantage since there is no judgment, no questioning." A piece of art or a song that a person may relate to can bring solace without the baggage of social interaction."
Another possible explanation for the attractiveness of sad art was investigated in a 2011 study with the title "Let it Be," which was inspired by the Beatles song. The study looked on the process of accepting negative feelings rather than ignoring or suppressing them. The study's authors concluded, "Somewhat paradoxically, avoiding negative emotional experiences may be associated with negative outcomes whereas accepting negative emotional experiences may be related with favorable outcomes." Their findings back up the theory that watching sad movies or listening to sad music can be a type of therapeutic acceptance for some people.
If a tragic song, film, or other work of art holds a special place in a person's heart, it may bring a unique form of catharsis. "There have been several studies demonstrating how specific individually meaningful pieces of music have brought comfort and peace in situations involving unpleasant emotions," Eerola explains.
Sad songs, novels, and films, rather than extending grief, appear to provide relief and pleasure — and perhaps even a stronger sense of emotional connection to other people. Who couldn't use a little more of that?
I really don't know,but when I listen to sad music while sad,I feel much better because I feel like the singer is singing to me directly to enable me feel better....Juice wrld, drake, coldplay and some cold rock does it for me, atimes heavy metals like Fleshgod Apocalypse help me during my sad moments too.
hisexcellency34: Outgoing governor of Ekiti State, Kayode Fayemi will any moment from now announce his intention to contest the 2023 presidential election under the platform of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
Also expected to join the race is former Ogun State governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, who currently represents Ogun Central Senatorial District in the National Assembly.
A presidency source informed DAILY INDEPENDENT that both men have already informed President Muhammadu Buhari of their desire to contest and he gave them his blessings.
Our source said while Fayemi is banking on his status as the Chairman of the Nigerian Governors Forum (NGF), former Minister of Mines and Steel Development and as Returning Officer of the 2014 APC presidential primary election which produced Buhari, Amosun is banking on his relationship with President Buhari since their days in the defunct All Nigeria People’s Party (ANPP).
If both men declare, they will be joining the growing list of aspirants which include the current Vice-President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo (SAN); Asiwaju Bola Tinubu; Governor Dave Umahi of Ebonyi State and his Kogi state counterpart, Yahaya Bello.
Others are Rotimi Amaechi, Minister of Transportation, Rochas Okorocha, former Imo state governor and Orji Uzor Kalu, former Abia State Governor.
Godwin Emefiele, the governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) is also rumoured to be interested in running on the platform of the APC but he is yet to open up on whether he will also join the race or not.
Although the APC is yet to zone the presidential ticket, there are indication it would zone it to the South which comprises the South-west, South-east and South-south geo-political zones.
iwaeda: Madrid won at Stamford Bridge. According to the Evening Standard, Real Madrid ace Ferland Mendy will make it to the match-day squad for the fixture against Chelsea despite having to sit out their last game against Getafe CF due to a muscle issue. The French defender is set to retain his place in the return leg of the quarter-final fixture at Santiago Bernabeu.
The Spanish club are currently riding high as they sit at the top of the table in La Liga. Carlo Ancelotti’s men have a healthy 1-3 lead after the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final against the Blues. Karim Benzema put forth another masterclass as he slotted three past Edouard Mendy.
The West Londoners did manage to get on the scoresheet via a Kai Havertz header but struggled to convert their bulk of positions and opportunities into goals. Romelu Lukaku, who came on as a late substitute, also missed two great opportunities to bag himself a goal on the night.
I hope Chelsea will disgrace them this time...Gona be hard sha,but I wish they win.
FCT, Abuja - The declaration video of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, SAN, for the 2023 presidency has set a new internet record having fetched a total of 345,000 views and over 3 million impressions in less than six hours. An expert, Oluwafemi Popoola said the viral online video which was posted around 7:00 a.m. has garnered mouth-watering social media numbers, breaking the Nigerian social media record.
With 345,000 views, 27,000 likes, 18,000 retweets, and over 3 million impressions in just 6 hours, he said the declaration video became the most engaged political post in the Nigerian Internet landscape.
Before the declaration, Nigerians had waited endlessly to know the next step of the vice president after repeated calls were made for him to throw his hat into the ring as the country prepares for a new election year.
In the said video currently trending online, the vice president reeled out his achievement and stated why he is the right person to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari.
A former Presidential Adviser, Doyin Okupe, has slammed the Africa Independent Television (AIT) for allegedly cutting him off while he was speaking on the Presidential ambition of Peter Obi on the Kakaaki breakfast show on Monday.
Okupe who was one of the first of many aspirants to obtain the PDP Expression of Interest & Nomination forms for the 2023 Presidential race announced his withdrawal 3 weeks ago, instead throwing his support for the candidacy of Peter Obi.
Speaking today on AIT's Kakaaki, Okupe reiterated his support for the South-East and especially Mr. Obi to be supported as candidate of the Party, even reeling out some of the achievements of the man many call 'Okwute.'
In what appeared like a technical glitch, the interview was cut off while he was speaking. Okupe who took exception to the interview been cut short, took to his Facebook page to accuse AIT of 'intolerance.'
AIT's founder, High Chief Raymond Dokpesi is Chairman of the Technical Committee of Atiku Abubakar Presidential Campaign.
