Accepting every demand from the woman you married because you love her portrays you as weak and foolish.
Deny her some of the requests even if she wont speak to you for weeks. It makes them know you are the man.

Never underestimate the power of prayers

Don’t trust anyone

Don’t put anyone above yourself , you first!!

Constantly invest in getting better than you are.

Don’t tell people your mind, it will make you more predictable

Avoid people who are ungrateful in little things, they can never be grateful even if you give them the whole world
You'll remain poor. Keep praying.

biggest lesson i've learnt in life. . . . . . . . .tomorrow is NOT promised. There is no guarantee that you'll be alive by this time next week. Therefore, be kind to aall. Take life easy. Plan ahead as if you wil live for 100yrs, but live your daily life like you have less than 2 days left to live.
Appreciate health
Love
Marry early, have at least one kid
Be nice, Be kind

Critical choices in life should never be made without recourse to God. If God has not willed it, it is bound to end in pain and regrets. Know thus and know peace.
Story for the gods..

Is that the reason Unbelievers and Atheists are doing better than you in life?
Re: 3 Things I Learned Late In Life by HellVictorinho9: 12:15am On Dec 02, 2024
Karma is useless,life is baseless and death is pointless.

I'm not old or anything but these are some things I've learned recently.

1. You don't earn just from learning something as the old saying goes(first you learn then you earn), instead you earn from mastering what you've learned and being a force in that area.

2. Social media is designed to rob you of your focus and attention, and will make you useless if you let it. On the flip side, if you utilize it well it can change your life.

3. Don't compete with other people or businesses in your line of work, instead find ways to dominate them. There's always something you can do better than them, use that to your advantage.

4. Most celebrities that people love and cherish don't actually care about their fans, they just see them as clients and customers that they have to keep interested in them and would do anything and everything to stay relevant, including stepping on their fans.
Most if not all companies and corporations do this too, it's all about the money

5. Only one thing is guaranteed in life, and that is death

It is better to look simple like you ain't worth sh*t, whereas you worth millions, than to look like you worth millions yet shishi you no get grin

Also, it is useless to own multiple luxury cars at once. Just use one car and change it every year.

Yeah?

Glad you realise that..

Nobody is doing better than anybody just because they are Theist..

In fact ,the most Theist and prayerful nations on earth are also the most improverished.

Take good care of yourself while young, eat balanced diets and eat well for the sake of your health tomorrow.

Don't try to please everyone - The earlier you know that you can't please everyone, the better.

It's impossible to satisfy every single person all the time, as people have different opinions, preferences, and expectations, so no matter what you do, some people will always be unhappy or disagree with you; essentially, it's a reminder to focus on doing what you believe is right and not get caught up in trying to please everyone.

1. Know that what is not your own can never be your own!

Follow your instincts, if your instinct keeps warning you about a person or something make sure to heed and cut ties.

Control your temper, learn how to manage mood swings

Experiment and research all you can about the power of breath.
Replace unnecessary thoughts and worry with conscious breathing , cause conscious breath acts like a pump for good and productive thoughts.

The Air and the water is the same entity , we breath it on land, fish breath it inside water.
And the ancient symbol for Air was that of water that has electrical charge.

Famous Kung Fu Actor, Bruce Lee said, "Be like water", to that i add, Study it, breath it, drink it, buy humidifier to raise humidity around you. (better to use filtered water in humidifier cause it has less minerals and chlorine).

Praise be to the Water and its Air. Give thanks and use it.
