PROCRASTINATION, AN AGENT OF FAILURE PHILOMATH Sunday, January 27, 2019 Education That disease called 'Procrastination', Yes! I call it a disease because.…... it has virtually destroyed many lives and rendered others useless. It has made many lose a very important thing in life. It has turned many to being just the shadow of themselves. Procrastination has really caused unspeakable things in the life of many people today. What then is this procrastination? one may ask. To the best of my knowledge or rather, to my own understanding, Procrastination is the act of postponing a very important thing that one must attain to time and time again. Its the act of using the term 'later' for those important things one must do at a particular time. The people that are guilty of this, have this venomous expression that is capable of destroying them. Expressions like, 'I will do it later', 'am too tired right now', 'I will do it tomorrow', and it goes on and on like that. This is what I call BEAUTIFUL NONSENSE if you ask me. Don't you know that, just one minute you waste in solving a pressing issue can involve a human life? It can lead to a devastating end really. Why then do these people procrastinate? To the best of my knowledge, its 'LAZINESS'. (please correct me if i'm wrong). Don't forget the old saying that says, ''laziness travels so slowly that poverty soon overtakes it''. So if you keep on procrastinating or allowing laziness taking over you, you might end up losing a major breakthrough that might just change your life for good. How then can you overcome procrastination? you may ask. You see, I believe in one principle in life and it has always kept me. This principle is the saying that says, ''whatsoever is worth doing at all is worth doing well''. I used to be guilty of this act but thank God I was able to overcome it. I will give us three (3) simple steps that will help us overcome procrastination. These are the things that also helped me. Firstly, you must try to it at the right time even when the urge to postponed comes, be decisive enough to go ahead and carry out whatsoever it is you have to do. If you want to do a thing that is very important and you know that its not going to be nice if you fail to do it immediately, don't hesitate to carry it out I beg you. Look at those that write or compose songs for instance, if an inspiration comes to their head and they fail to write it down or record it, they will forget immediately. (ask your friends who write songs, they will testify to this). All you just need to do is to do that thing immediately or at the right time to prevent 'had I know' exclamation. The second thing you need to overcome procrastination is what I call ..... Continue reading here http://thebrainyfox..com/2019/01/evil-of-procrastination.html |

SELF CONTROL TIPS TO AVOID ANGER PHILOMATH Sunday, January 27, 2019 Education, Relationship Tips The type of things ANGER have caused people do these days (especially youths and married couples) is highly unbearable. The rate at which we get 'exasperated' these days and destroy things, is really pathetic and regretable. ANGER to my own understanding is when one loses control of oneself. when one closes their mind at whatsoever their action might cause to the person involved. (Even when it involves human life)! Having said all of these however, one question come to mind; HOW THEN CAN WE MANAGE ANGER? 'self control', 'patience' and 'paying attention to details' best describe how you can manage ANGER and escape from its VENOM. How? you may ask, I will explain..... First of all, let me deal with married couples. Excuse me Mr Husband, When you come back from work at night, and instead of welcoming you back home, your wife starts nagging at you. Saying all sorts of Gibberish in annoyance, you don't have to start shouting together with her or start beating her (like some men do. It might be that she has missed you. yes! some women are like that! It might be that you neglected or forgotten something very dear to her (especially her birthday). so that's the time she decides to pick offense, some women are like that. It might be that she is few weeks pregnant, Some women tend to act in that manner when they just take in. So Mr Husband, when you face such challenge, try and know what might have caused it. Don't talk back at her. Don't hurl abusive words at her. Don't beat her. Just ignore her and look for the reason behind such act because something must have caused it. SILENCE, is actually the best tool. She will still come back to apologize, that is certain. And to you WIFEY, whenever your husband comes back home angry, and he talks to you in an angry tone, you........ Continue reading here http://thebrainyfox..com/2019/01/that-venom-called-anger.html |

NOTABLE CHEMISTS, THEIR BIOGRAPHY AND INVENTIONS (PART 1) PHILOMATH Saturday, January 26, 2019 Education As a chemistry student or lover of chemistry, there is need for you to know some noticeable chemists who have contributed greatly in chemistry, that's why I compile this list of notable chemists, the list will still be update because they are more than the number speculated. 1. Marie Curie (nee Sklodowska) (1867 – 1934). Marie Curie was a Polish immigrant to France. She registered as a student in Paris in 1891. In 1894, she got married to Pierre Curie, but continued her work as a research student. Her topic for investigation was Radio-activity which Becquerel had recently discovered. There was no laboratory for her at the University, so she worked in a shed in her husband’s work place. Pierre was the chief of the laboratory at the School of Physics and Chemistry. Pierre himself was doing a research in electricity, but his wife’s findings interested him so much that he joined in her research. For that research, the Curies shared the Nobel price with Becquerel in 1903. Marie was awarded the doctorate degree in 1903. In 1904, Pierre was appointed Professor of Physics at the University of Paris. With the funds from the Nobel price, he built a laboratory. However, the new-found joy of the Curies was short-lived, for Pierre died of an accident in 1906. Marie succeeded her husband as Professor of Physics at the University of Paris. She continued her research in radioactivity. In 1911, she became the first (and till now the only) person to be awarded the Nobel price twice. She traced radioactivity to uranium, thorium, polonium (an element she named after her native country), and radium (so called because it radiates light). 2. Joseph John Thompson (1856 – 1940) : J. J. Thompson was born near Manchester in 1856. He attended Owens College in his hometown between 1870 and 1876, then went to Trinity College from where he graduated in Mathematics and Physics in 1880. He worked in...... Continue reading here http://thebrainyfox..com/2019/01/notable-chemists-their-biography-and.html |
BE DIFFERENT (AN EYE OPENER FOR NIGERIANS) PHILOMATH Saturday, January 26, 2019 Education Funke Akindele, popularly known as Jenifa is doing and exploring throughout the whole federation and abroad. When you hear Jenifa, what comes to your mind? That lady with marital issues then?, the lady that looks old in native attires?, the lady that speaks bad English jokingly? The truth is, she speaks this English and everyone speaks along with her. The English some folks would speak and would be made jest of is what Jenifa speaks and receives standing ovations for. Is she different? Is she not a human being like us? Of course she is! She only decided to create a trend and not to always follow other people's path. A lot of actress are speaking English impeccably, but our own amiable Jenifa chose something different. If she was to speak good and correct in Jenifa's diary, do you know the episodic movie would not have gone viral like it has? When you find yourself in the midst of people in the same field, it is expected of you to do something different. Be unique, be different, be exceptional. When you finish baking those cakes, carving hats, making shoes of yours, design it beautifully. Just do something attractive and different. When you sing, sing uniquely. When you draw, draw amazingly. When you talk.......… Continue reading here http://thebrainyfox..com/2019/01/be-different-eye-opener-for-nigerians.html |

There is a huge difference between "Asking" and "Proposing" I have come to realized that there are so many Single Matured Females out there who are single just because they have this Male best friend. Makes Sense? No!!! Ok let me break it down. You have this Male Best Friend. You two are always around each other. He treats you like a Blood Sister. He is Single as well. (Well.... May be to you) You feel incomplete whenever he is not around. You are super excited whenever he comes around. You two are so compactible. Some marriages are not even as sweet as you two's Friendship. Matter of fact you two have been best of friends since Campus and now you two are both done with NYSC. you two's friendship is still waxing strong. Your entire family knows him. His entire family knows you. All through your stay in Campus you were single thinking you two are indirectly dating. All through your stay in NYSC Camp you refused to talk to any guy. A whole year of your service for the nation, you didn't listen to anything any guy has to say except it's just "hi". Why? Because you don't want to cheat on your imaginal Boyfriend/Future Father of your beautiful children. Lol Deep inside of you, you like him sooooooooo much. You feel, he feels the same way. He probably don't know how to express himself yet. People are waiting for you two to pick the Wedding Date already because they all think you two have been dating all along. Matter of Fact, some of your admirers in your area refused to ask you out because they think you are engaged already. Aunty hear me!!! You were 21 when you met this darling Best Friend of yours........ Continue reading here http://thebrainyfox..com/2019/01/an-advice-to-sister-who-think-she-in.html |

Hi, I'm here again with a mind blowing articles aim at changing the mindset of most first year students in tertiary institutions. First, let's do some analysis, I will start by asking a question, DO WE KNOW THE REASON WHY USAIN BOAT LOST HIS LAST RACE TO CHRISTIAN COLEMAN AND JUSTIN GATLIN? He actually didn't loose because he wasn't fast, (he was faster than them) but he lost because his takeoff wasn't good enough (he was the last to take off when the gun was shot), what made him to come third in the race despite being the fastest man alive was not his inability to run, but OVERCONFIDENCE, I am the best runner nah, these ones are too small to compete with me, I don't need to put in my best now, I will run faster in the middle of the race, these are what he was thinking but unfortunately, the case was in reversed, he lost and came THIRD! Wait, please ask yourself, what is the source of your confidence?, because you think all first year courses are more of O'level curriculum?, that's what gives you the confidence to be playing in your first year, please don't be like Usain Bolt, there is beauty in starting a race early, assuming Usain Bolt had started the race properly, he would.....
