Timagex:
Hello everyone! My name is Adekola Taiwo. I am a wedding photographer based in Ibadan, Nigeria. I am also a wedding and events consultant and I share free wedding tips on my instagram page every week.

My Instagram page is @Timagex_bridal_clicks.

This week, I will be sharing six important things potential couples must do before their wedding day.

Myer:
Pastors can be wolves.
Members can be wolves.

Which was why Jesus said in Matthew 7:22-23

sOn that day tmany will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’
And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, yyou workers of lawlessness.’


Which also brings us to the parable of the what and tares. Mattew 13: 24-30

The difficulty is knowing who is what but still growing.
And who is a tare masquerading as a wheat.

Truly I would have supported the Angels/workers who advised God to destroy the tares immediately. But God resisted that,not willing to lose the soul of any wheat.
But in hindsight, we have now lost more wheats because of the tares.

But as always, God knows best.

Righteousness2:
Absolutely fantastic indeed!
Satanic rituals and advancing Satanic codes and Signs absolutely Fantastic!

Be careful of who you call your Pastor.
Many are Wolfs in sheep clothings..

Sonnobax15:

Must we kill every animal that comes our wa in this country........No wonder Zouma was attacked by animal activist over there.. Because our mentalities as blacks no dey rhyme at all with wetin whites dey see as normal

Anny505:
Be like snake never pursue this one before

Kinute:
This is going to be a very quick, straight-to-the-point post and no unnecessary explaination.

And to prove it-


1. SHORT HAND

If u still type lik dis n u tink typn sentences correctly is wsting of tym or some swag, you say thnx like dis and ask questions with y, wht, etc.

Then you need to stop. You might have damaged your chances of people seeing the value in you because of annoying, hard-to-read short-hand sentences.

Wake up, we are no longer in the era of 2go.

Your friends might not care because they know you.

Don't let people see you as immature and valueless before you get a chance to prove otherwise.


2. YOU WANT TO DO IT BY YOURSELF

Maybe you are an introvert, shy or your ego is just as big as the big head on your neck, the truth still remains you cannot live life on your own.

Don't make this mistake.

Find support systems.

There is a reason why suicide cases in Nigeria are consistently rising. People have replaced communal values with solitude and seclusion.

Apart from the damage it does to your mental health, it also makes it hard for people to reach out to you when you most need them cos they just assume you are fine.

This is also important in business. Find a partner that compliments you, stop focusing on all that can go wrong if you have a partner.

I stand to be corrected but I believe, whatever can go wrong in your business if you have a partner has a higher chance of going wrong if you are doing it by yourself.


3. NOT BUILDING QUALITY RELATIONSHIPS

This is a sequel to point 2 above.

Build deliberate and strategic relationships. Stop treating people with disdain, and stop looking down on yourself.

Be interested in people, their values, and what they do. Help where you can.

Go to events where the kind of people you want in your life are at.

Think of relationships as investments that can yield better ROI than any other type of investment.

In fact, take a look at your life right now, some of the things you have achieved were through leveraging relationships.


4. YOU ARE NOT SHOWING YOUR VALUE

I struggled with this for years. I was good at a few things but nobody knew. I saw friends I was better than become what I wanted to be. They would even come to me for advice.

Why? Because the little they knew how to do, they shared with the world while I was waiting to be perfect.

Don't do that. Waiting for perfection is just fear masking itself in a way that seems pleasant.

Go out there, show people what you can do, what you are learning how to do, and how you do what you do.

Value can also be just helping others around you achieve something. Value is your usefulness to God, man, and society.


5. YOU DON'T HONOR PEOPLE

This is similar to building relationships but still slightly different.

If I may ask, when was the last time you thanked your parents? Have you ever truly appreciated them for all they have done?

Honor doesn't just stop at our parents though. How about your bosses, your superiors, or even those under you. Have you ever looked them in the eye and say "Thank you for all you do, I value and honor you"

There are many ways you can honor people.

Find a way to honor those that have made an impact in your life.


6. YOU ARE NOT DIFFERENT FROM EVERY OTHER PERSON AROUND YOU

Everyone is starting a poultry business so you start one. Everyone is submitting CVs for jobs so you do the same. People do the same thing over and over again and you jump on the bandwagon, no uniqueness, no differentiation, just copy copy.

Now, I am not saying doing what others are doing is bad, it is not. But find a way to stand out, find a way to be different.

For every business out there, there are 100 ways you can be different. Your job application must not follow every constant application format.

Don't let desperation cause you to be repetitive and redundant. Learn to stand out, learn to be different.


7. PROCASTINATION

I will talk about this tomorrow.

But every tomorrow is another tomorrow.

Do it now.



8. FEAR

It's not easy to overcome fear but overcoming your fear is the only way you can move forward in life.

So many motivational speakers have talked about this and I am no motivational speaker.



9. YOU ARE NOT LEARNING ENOUGH

Reading might be tiring for you but can you at least learn from people that have done it before you. Ask for their help and guidance, watch them as they do what they do, and find ways to do it better.

Google is your friend. Getting a mentor or coach is a better friend and books are your best friends.

Choose your friends wisely.


10. FILL THIS IN YOURSELF

If you are being sincere, you know what is holding you back.

Your guts tell you once you can overcome this thing, you would be able to achieve anything you want. Then overcome it.

But let me burst your bubbles. Excuses don't cut it. Stop making excuses. Making excuses in itself is a mistake.

The excuses you make are scenarios making you mentally lazy.

Wake up. (For lack of better words)

@Bold:

You need to update your dictionary:

Now, a girl in the bold can claim to be raped if when you start thrusting, she says no and you don't stop.

There has to be consent per time of the act.

Nuel4:
I always laugh whenever I see boys saying no means no etc. That's hypocrisy. Girls were told never to immediately accept a guy on a date, to be his girlfriend or have sex. Girls believed if you make sexual move and they agree immediately they will be considered cheap so they were told to always say no, stop etc it's the guy's duty to try and convince her into agreeing to sex. This has been the norm since the dawn of time. Girls liked it because they could form hard to get or guilt trap the guy afterwards. 99% of ladies reading this have told a guy to stop when they wanted him to continue and would mock the guy if he actually stopped. This led to a serious confusion, a young boy out there wouldn't know if a girl telling him to stop actually means he should stop or is telling him to try harder. This has hurt both boy and girls the mixed messages make it difficult for young boys to actually know when the girls truly want them to stop.

For generations, the notion that with women no means no and no means yes, yes means maybe maybe means try harder and try harder means yes etc was all over the place and women never fought against it they loved it because it made them look complicated which ended up confusing men.
You cannot teach people no means no and no means yes and yes means no and expect them not to be confused.

The truth is this, if we follow the line of no means no then every single man in the world who has ever had sex will be in jail. Even majority of girlfriends told their boyfriends no on the first attempt. It was a normal thing.


I'm not talking about the normal rape we all know about, as in forcefully penetrate a ladies intimidating her with dangerous weapons or a group of people holding her her forcefully having sex with her.

Karlifate:
If Deacon Femi Adesina is the Sanballat, who is now the Tobiah?
Just curious tho...

Ishilove:
This...
As innnnnnnnn, the thing hit me

EverestdeBliu:
No. The confirmed cases include both discharged and death

Emmasnoop:
If you don't know something ask questions and stop dragging others to your baseless findings, that is how is being calculated outside Nigeria also, since you know the total Death and discharge Why not do the calculation yourself Why complaning?.

emeernest:
Why can't NCDC give accurate update on the number of samples tested? So that we have correct perspective on these new cases.

On their website it has remained >5000 for the past one week. What are they trying to hide?

vickydankal:
USA, China, Italy, Spain etc with more sophisticated gadgets and technologically advanced far more than Nigeria are finding it very difficult to handle, treat or cure corvid19. But miracles happen every day in Lagos with number of people we hear are discharged and test confirm them negative to corona virus disease 2019.

I have this few questions for our Nigerians medical Doctors, health workers, Ministry of health, Federal and state government and to the general public.

1) Has there ever been any autopsy carried out to the people who are dying/ died from corvid19 to confirm exactly what killed them.

2) The people recovery what was given to them?

3) What age, blood type etc are more susceptible to corvid19

4) Since they told us that people with weak immune system or underlying illnesses are more prone to die from corvid19, what can people who have not contracted corvid19 do to boost their immune system before time?

5) I wonder why Chinese government are sending their medical doctors to different countries to help them manage corvid19, when of cos wherever they go the number of cases increase, yet they said no cure, what will they be doing to the patients?

6) With the way number of cases of corvid19 has drastically reduced in China and we were told no cure, what did they do for the people to recover?

7) What has happened to billions donated towards fight against corvid19

cool Is the government of this nation from state to federal hiding anything from the masses about the controversial 5G.

9) Is this pandemic a new way of looting for our government key persons.

[s]10)Self distancing, face mask and sanitizer has been publicized for effective way to battle and decrease the spread of Corvid19. why close Churches a place of healing/worship and mosque where citizens meet their God for help. Are their things they are not telling us ?[/s]

If we don’t start asking deep questions, abnormal could become our new normal.
Contribute wisely with facts not hearsay.

enemyofprogress:
it was recorded few hours before the broadcast and a copies were given to the media houses to be released not before the broadcast, but during or after the broadcast

BETIKS:
THIS GENERATION IS ROTTEN

Imagine how many people came to defend naira Marley despite the fact that the prof gave out clear points. No where did he say naira Marley was the problem in NIGERIA, there are many problems in Nigeria and moral decadence is one of them. His music appeals to people of decayed morals, if you don't find anything offensive in his music then it's a pointer to the fact that you are already decayed (dead but alive).
