Contrary to what you might think, it isn’t always the easiest thing to handle distractions. Some people would just tell you to focus as though that will solve the entire problem. But, the truth is that it doesn’t always work that way. For example, how do you handle distractions while working at a job you’re not fully satisfied with yet? In a situation like that, distraction is inevitable because it’s almost as if your mind is begging you to think of something else.

We understand the challenge that lies in your condition. That’s why we’ve come up with this article. Our strategies won’t turn you into an unblinking, single-minded machine. But, you’ll certainly get better at handling your distractions.

1. Remember why you’re doing it in the first place

When you’re working out or reading a really complicated textbook, it might be very easy for you to get distracted. That text will come in on your phone, and it will be followed by another text and another text, and they just won’t stop. Before you know it, you’ve abandoned what you were doing and you're hammering away at your keyboard. In a situation like this, you need to keep your initial goals in mind. Why did you start working out? What are you reading for? Is failure an option?

When you’re looking to write an excellent resume, you might be thinking that you need to do something that’s absolutely extraordinary. You might even be going online to research the most flamboyant formats and templates you can use. But, you really don’t have to break your back to write an excellent resume. Sometimes, it’s the little things that count and set you apart.

While employers might consider fancy templates visually appealing, they’re much more concerned with the content than the aesthetics. That’s why we’ll be giving you these four tips to help you write an excellent resume. They are:

1. Make it simple and easy to read

Even if you’re applying for the position of an English professor at Oxford University, it doesn’t necessarily mean your hirer is interested in seeing how many ridiculously huge words you can fit into a sentence. As a matter of fact, if not for the peculiarities of your resume, many people prefer communication where they can make eye contact instead of talking too much. You’ll understand what we mean by that if you read this post. So, while writing your resume, do your best to ensure that you are communicating in a way that your potential employer is going to understand.

If you’re a Christian, the chances are that you’re familiar with different portions of the Bible. One of those portions is used popularly today when the issue of marriage arises in any Christian gathering. It is taken from the book of Eph. 5:23, where the Bible instructs you, as a man, to be the head of your wife in the same way that Christ is the head of the church.

Some might be tempted to interpret this Bible verse in several ways. But, the truth is that it cannot be more straightforward than it already is. This is especially so when you consider the second part that says, “…as Christ is the head of the church.”

So, what are the lessons you can learn from there? How can you actually emulate the ways of Christ to be the head of your wife? Well, it’s actually quite simple.

1. Serve her

In the Bible, before the full establishment of Christianity, the church essentially referred to anyone and everyone who truly believed in Jesus Christ and followed his ways and teachings. Despite his divine nature and being the head of the church, Jesus Christ was still humble enough to wash his disciples’ feet, as seen in John 13:4-5. In the same vein, you should be willing to serve and take care of your wife.

Buying a new car is one heck of a commitment for any adult to make. Don't get us wrong. It is incredibly rewarding as it provides ridiculously easy ways to travel, compared using public transportation systems.

However, a lot of cars come at quite a cost. As such, if you aren't careful, you might put a dent in your bank account in the process of buying a new car. This is why you need to be properly informed before you throw in those thousands/millions.

So, today, we'll be giving you a few quick tips to help you out if you're planning on buying a new car. Without further ado, let's dive right in!

1. Do your research

It isn't enough for you to see a nice and sleek car in a TV commercial and just go for it. As a matter of fact, that is completely unacceptable. Even Jeff Bezos shouldn't do that as there are many factors to be considered outside the TV appearance of the car. Among other things, you need to find out its functionality. You also need to know how its price compares to other cars. Just do your own research thoroughly on the car.

Every now and then, we must admit, it is pretty fun to have a sip from a tall glass of wine. Among some people, it is considered a sign of class, especially when you treat yourself to spirits of the highest quality. Alongside that, it can be a great beverage when you’re having a celebration of sorts with your adult friends. However, excessive alcohol intake is quite real, and it is very damaging too.

Now, you shouldn’t take this the wrong way. Unless you’re already a victim of the issues that come along with excessive alcohol intake, you might not necessarily need to cut off alcohol from your life/diet completely. However, if you don’t already have issues with this intoxicating beverage, you should probably limit your intake before it becomes an actual problem. Here’s why:

1. It negatively impacts your sexual health

Many people think that alcohol is the “feel-good” beverage that takes you to paradise and away from your worries with a few sips from the glass. As such, they often down a few bottles before they get into the bedroom with their wives. The truth is that this opinion is actually quite wrong. How? Well, alcohol could lead to erectile problems in you. Alongside that, for your woman, it could lead to a number of pregnancy complications that you certainly don’t want to deal with in your marriage.

Being a student is just as exciting as it is tiring. On some days, you can get enough sleep to last a lifetime, and on other days, you can barely get two hours of rest. On some days, you look great and dashing, and on some others, you wouldn’t mind a few dressing tips for students.

As always, we’re here to help you through all of those rough days. After all, it’s what guys do. So, without wasting too much of your time, because you probably have an assignment due now that schools are resuming, here are four essential dressing tips for students:

1. Dress according to your pocket

Believe me when I say that there is absolutely no reason to impress anyone. Seriously, there isn’t. That girl you think would look your way when you spend extravagantly probably wouldn’t. The guy you think would respect you because of all your new gold chains might not even care. So, why bother? If you are going shopping for clothes, never pick something that’ll end up leaving your pockets dry and your stomach even drier.

Have you ever had any cases of bad first impressions? If yes, you'll know that they’re not particularly pleasant. It could be with a potential partner, a colleague at work, or even a lecturer at school. Regardless of who they are, during those moments, we often wish we could take back all we said or did.

Alas! Things aren’t always that simple. You really only get one chance to make a good first impression. But, and here’s where things get interesting, it’s not over yet. Just because the person got the wrong impression at first doesn’t mean that’ll be their final impression of you. You can still fix bad first impressions. How? Let’s take a look:

1. Decide whether or not it’s worth the trouble

Now, before you go off obsessing about someone who might have the wrong opinion of you, you need to first know if they’re worth it. Is it someone you’ll constantly see at work? Is it a friend at school whose view of you will be tainted throughout your stay at the university? If it’s not a person you’re unlikely to meet, don’t worry too much about it. The chances are that they’ll forget before the day runs out. However, it’s still polite to offer an apology when necessary.

Frugality refers to the condition of being economical with whatever resources are available to you. It has a ton of benefits, with the most common being that it will help you save money. However, despite the advantages, today, we are often bombarded with messages from the media telling us to live our lives this way or that. So much so that we easily forget the importance of frugality.

For more reasons than one, you need to slow down in your pursuit of “the finer things in life.” Now, don’t get it wrong, you shouldn’t become a cheap knockoff who exerts minimal amounts of physical and financial efforts over everything. However, you should be a bit more economical in your spending. To convince you, we’ll be detailing the importance of frugality in this article.

1. It helps to improve your wealth of knowledge

You might be wondering exactly how spending less would help you learn more considering that most learning materials today come at a cost. Well, when you spend less money, you can learn to do things yourself. For example, if you cook your meals yourself instead of ordering and paying for delivery all the time, you’ll learn how to cook and get better at it over time. In the same vein, if you fix faulty sockets, instead of calling electricians all the time, you’ll become more skilled at fixing issues like that. So, you see, it helps you to improve your wealth knowledge.

Becoming a better version of yourself is less of a destination and more of a journey. That is, no matter how good you get, there are certain things you should always improve on. Even if you manage to receive medals for them, it is still not an excuse to slack off.

This is mostly because those parts of your life are constantly evolving. They are constantly shifting, and you need to move with them. But, what are those things you should always improve on? Let’s find out.

1. Communication skills

There are more than seven billion different people on the planet. In Nigeria alone, we have upwards of 200 million individuals. We are all from different parts of the world with different cultures and varying perspectives on how the world is or how it should be. Alongside that, we were all raised differently. As such, communicating with all of us would require a slightly different tactic than usual. So, no matter how great you are at communicating with people, you need to improve on yourself in that area continuously. To do this, read books. They contain a wealth of knowledge you can tap into for you to attain higher levels of perfection. Alongside that, do your best to communicate clearly and effectively every single day.

Over the years, out of desperation to get results as quickly as possible, people have told themselves different myths about weight loss. Some of them sound reasonable. Others sound absolutely ridiculous. Unfortunately, many people on the receiving end of those myths end up believing them. After all, we all just want a little bit of hope.

But, if you truly want to lose weight, you cannot place your entire effort on myths about weight loss. Doing so will probably lead you down a path of disappointment as you might not get the results you hope for. As such, to help put your expectations in order, here are six myths about weight loss with little to no truth in them.

You only need an extremely intense workout to lose weight 

This is entirely untrue as there are other ways for you to lose weight besides subjecting your body to intense workout routines. If you truly want to lose weight and stay healthy, you need to make little adjustments to your lifestyle and then stick to them long-term. Intense fitness routines might work. However, they aren’t always sustainable for non-athletes.

Considering the traditions that governed marriage and childbearing in our parents' days, it is not very likely that you grew up without siblings. In that case, think back to your childhood days. Try to remember how you related with your siblings and how you would often get into minor scuffles with them. That was sibling rivalry, and, in retrospect, it feels pretty normal. After all, everyone quarrels sometimes.

However, that rivalry could've become something much worse if your parents did not manage it efficiently at the time. So, in a manner of speaking, you owe your parents some gratitude for efficiently taking care of the situation. However, that is not the only debt you have to pay. You also owe a duty to your children to help them manage sibling rivalry and get along properly. That is why we'll be sharing five useful tips to help your kids get along in this article. Without further ado, let's dive right in:

1. Teach your children conflict resolution skills

Considering that these little bundles of joy you have aren't adults yet, you cannot automatically assume that they know how to resolve conflicts. If you don't teach them, you should know that they won't learn it from anywhere else because elementary education doesn't offer this knowledge either.

As such, you must drill proper conflict resolution skills into your children. Teach them to listen when the other person is talking. In the same vein, tell them which language is appropriate to use and which ones they should avoid even when provoked. By doing so, you'll be laying a proper foundation for virtually every relationship they're going to have in their lifetime.

You can’t deny it, and neither can I. We’ve all had a couple of bottles of unhealthy sugary drinks at some point in our lives. It could’ve been at a party or perhaps that one day when you were feeling particularly tired, and you needed something to keep you going.

Regardless of your motivation, I really can’t blame you. However, it would be pretty irresponsible not to tell you that these sugary drinks are bad for you. You see, even as a man, your human body is quite delicate. There are limits to the kinds of things that it can handle. Now, a bit of sugar every now and then is fine. But, when you overdo it, you’ll cause more complications for yourself than you should have to deal with. So, if the title didn’t give it away already, we’ll be showing you five reasons you should quit those unhealthy sugary drinks you’ve been taking.

1. It is largely made up of empty calories

What this means is that sugary drinks do not make you full. You see, what you call hunger is simply your body’s response to the hunger hormone known as ghrelin. Drinks that are made of fructose, a common type of sugar, don’t reduce the production of this hormone. So, when you’re taking soda, unlike smoothies, for example, you’re merely drinking it for the sake of it.

With schools slowly resuming across different states in Nigeria, this conversation is long overdue. At one point in time or the other, you must’ve heard that networking, for students, is extremely important. It’s very likely that you were told that you need it to get your first (or next) job, and without it, you’d have wasted your time in school.

Indeed, these things are true. Well, you wouldn’t have exactly wasted your time in school. But, usually, networking does make quite a difference. Unfortunately, not many students seem to know how to go about it.

If you are one of those students, you’re in luck. In this guide to networking for students, we’ll be giving you a few useful tips that’ll help you master your networking game:

1. Don’t overthink it

When people are always placing emphasis on networking for students, it’s normal for you to get a little scared. Especially as an introvert, you might be terrified to find out that your career is hinged on your ability to talk to people. However, you really shouldn’t be so terrified. Remember that you’re not trying to convince them to fund your interplanetary research to find life on another planet. You’re just one human trying to know another human being.

If you’ve never had to handle a talkative, then the chances are that you’ve never really met one. Now, truth be told, there is nothing wrong with a little chitchat every now and then. Especially when the burden of work gets incredibly high, a good way to relieve stress is with a nice, calm conversation with a friend.

However, it is not in all cases that these conversations can be good. There are some people who just overdo it. They seem to always have something to say. They constantly move from their personal lives to the latest piece of entertainment they consumed, among others. This type of behaviour can be tiring, especially when you need to work or just think a little.

If you have to deal with someone like this, this article is for you. Here are a few tips to help you handle a talkative at work:

1. Politely explain that you’d like to get back to work and be alone

Nothing beats a little bit of courtesy and politeness. As such, when you find that co-worker going on and on about the latest Nollywood movie, end the conversation politely and explain that you still have a few tasks on your desk. Emphasize your need to be alone so that they don’t offer to follow you to the office. For most people, this will send the right signal, and it’ll help curb the excessive discourse later on.

After about three decades of being alive, you’ve gone far beyond the stage of childhood. You are not likely to still have your parents fending for you, and the chances are that you’re completely independent at this point. Among other things, during this period, there are some financial goals to set.

If you’re new to the term, it’s important to note that financial goals go way beyond saving to get a new car. Financial goals are goals you set for yourself that determine how you’ll spend your income. To a large extent, these goals help you to manage your income such that you do not spend recklessly on everything you come across. As such, they are incredibly important.

If you are already in your thirties, here are four important financial goals that you must strive to attain:

1. Create an emergency fund

An emergency fund, as the name implies, is the money you set apart for the times when you’re in a tough spot. This type of fund is particularly useful for those who do not have regular income as you can dig into it when you’re in your lowest of lows.

Unfortunately, not everyone has a solid amount of money set aside for the times when things aren’t exactly rosy. For unexpected incidents like sicknesses, accidents, or a sudden loss of your main source of income, an emergency fund is important. Your goals should include creating emergency funds that can last for up to a year.

From Martin Luther King Jnr. to Barack Obama, virtually all the world's greatest orators had one thing in common. It's that they all understood the importance of eye contact in communication.

Now, at the sight of the first few sentences, you're probably questioning the importance of this tiny thing to you. To help set you on the right path, I'll have you know that you don't necessarily need to be a public speaker for eye contact in communication to matter to you. You might not be the US president, and you might not even lead an entire race towards equality. However, you will still need to communicate with people.

As such, it is imperative that you are able to maintain eye contact while talking. This seemingly tiny act is so important that it could have multiple effects on your business and even your relationships. How? Well, let's take a look at the importance of eye contact in communication.

1. It projects confidence

When speaking to a potential employer, customer, investor, or even an equal colleague, confidence is everything. Confidence is the attribute that shows that you know what you're doing. It creates less doubt in people about you because they can clearly see that you're not just a blind man stumbling in the dark.

If you are able to maintain eye contact while talking to a person, it goes a long way to show that you have this coveted attribute. They'll be more inclined to believe what you're saying because unlike the average timid Joe who can't bear to look someone in the eye, you can.

"The more, the merrier." This phrase has been spoken on the lips of hundreds of thousands of people across the world. So much so that some have even come to accept it as a way of life, amassing as many numbers as they can. However, the truth is that there is still a lot to be gained from keeping a small circle of friends.

Yes, with a ton of followers on social media and a lot of contacts on your mobile device, there are a number of advantages you could enjoy. But, that is just choosing quantity over quality. If you were to scrutinize those you call friends right now, wouldn't a chunk of them fall into the acquaintance zone?

Anyway, just in case you didn't know, sometimes, it is a lot better to just keep your circle small. If you're still curious as to the reasons, we'll give you four of them.

1. It helps to avoid drama and the ensuing stress

Now, assuming that you happen to have a lot of friends on your list and you actually intend to treat them all as friends, you're not likely to have that gesture 100% reciprocated. Where there are human relationships, there will be conflicts. The bigger the relationships, the bigger the conflicts. This is because humans are diverse and dynamic. So, unless your friends happen to be a single-minded entity straight out of a sci-fi movie franchise, you will disagree at some point.

If your circle is big, the disagreements will come pretty often, and they will be tiring. However, with a smaller friendship circle, you're not likely to have to deal with these very often unless you chose the wrong friends in the first place.

Not many people care to admit it, but if you choose to look at it closely, you’ll realize that it can actually be a bit difficult to show love to your children equally. This is caused by several factors ranging from personality traits to the level of helpfulness around the home and several other things.

However, regardless of what factors might influence it, you need to be able to show love to your children equally. It is your responsibility as a parent for a number of reasons.

For starters, if you don’t, you risk causing intense sibling rivalry, which could generate a rift between the children. Alongside that, you really don’t want a child who grows up with the mindset that her parents did not love her the way they loved the other person. A mindset like that can be crippling in the child’s adult life.

So, while it can be challenging, you need to learn how to show love to your children equally. How? Let’s see:

1. Spend quality time with each of them

Now, if one kid sees you always playing with the other kid and never giving them the time of day, it would most definitely pass the wrong message. It would be even more traumatic for him/her if s/he makes efforts to be with you, and you turn them down subtly or directly.

So, as much as you can, spend quality time with your kids. Engage in activities that you can both enjoy and have genuine discussions along the way. If, for important reasons, you have to prioritize one child over another, explain to the others when they try to come to you.

There are tons of opportunities on the internet just waiting to be plucked. You can use this vast interconnection of computers to connect with loved ones. You could also use it for business, driving customers to your page consistently for profit. Finally, you can use the internet for internet dating.

Admittedly, internet dating sites aren’t the most common things around this part of the world. However, the enthusiasm we lack in swiping and liking for dates, we put into social media. While social media isn’t created specifically for dating, there’s no law that says you can’t say a friendly “hi” to your person of interest on the platform.

For this reason, we’ll be giving you a few tips on internet dating, whether you’re using a dating site or just a social media platform.

1. Start a friendly conversation

If you do come across an interesting person on your timeline, start up a conversation. Do not go ahead to start stalking them all over the web. You also don’t want to jump right in and tell her that you’ve been in love with her for as long as you’ve existed. No, that’s sure to scare her off. You want to make sure that you introduce yourself properly and keep the conversation sane.

Apart from ridiculously high amounts of work, few things are quite as frustrating as having a bad co-worker. These types of people are often disliked by virtually everyone at the office that has to relate with them every day. Among other things, they can be lazy, condescending, unsupportive, and even downright annoying.

As unpleasant as they sound, they might not always be the other person. In fact, the person you might have in mind right now might not exactly be the bad co-worker at your office. Unfortunately, the bad co-worker could as well be you. Most times, we get so fixated on other peoples’ faults that we forget to look at ourselves to see what we’re doing wrong. As such, we’ll be listing out a few general symptoms of bad co-workers. If you find yourself having one or more of these, sorry, man, you just might be the bad guy at your office.

1. You are constantly dumping work on people at the last minute

Nobody likes to deal with avoidably difficult deadlines. Even those who prefer working under pressure would much rather be the ones to put themselves under pressure. So, if you are constantly dumping work on your co-workers’ desks when it can be avoided, the chances are that that co-worker considers you the bad one.

It is not surprising if you think this way because there are many others who believe that true excellence does not announce itself.

Whether you are a business person, a public speaker, or even an employee at a firm, at some point in time, you’ll have to be able to capture your audience. After all, you can’t sell that great idea if your listener doesn’t even notice you. In the same vein, you can’t convince your boss your method is the best if they aren’t even paying attention to you.

As such, we’ve compiled a few tips that should help you in getting people’s attention, whether you are selling to them, making a presentation, or just trying to pass a message. They are:

1. Be well-packaged

Looks aren’t everything, but they certainly do matter. As a regular reader of this blog, you must’ve heard us say this more times than once. So, package yourself properly. If you are trying to get attention online for marketing purposes, ensure that your graphic design is nothing short of excellent.

If you’re here looking to learn a few dressing tips for job interviews, then it means you have made it to the interview stage. Congratulations, you’ve done very well for yourself. What it means is that you’ve passed all the necessary requirements. All the required qualifications are in order, and you’re one step closer to being gainfully employed.

You should know, however, that the main point of a job interview is to find out if you are truly all that your documents say you are. If you say you are organized, your employers want to see it in you. For this, they’ll look at more than just your answers to questions. They’ll look at your dressing and general appearance. As such, you need to look superb.

For that reason, we’ve put together a few dressing tips for job interviews that’ll be particularly useful to you.

1. Dress for the industry

Now, we wouldn’t take the liberty of making the bold assumption that you are getting interviewed for an office job. As such, we cannot say outright that you should put on a suit and tie. Indeed, these go well for virtually any interview. However, you’d do a lot better to dress in accordance with your industry. If you are applying for a more creative job, you don’t want to look too stuck up and as though you can’t think outside the box as the job requires. Now, we’re not saying you should go overboard and dress inappropriately. Rather, what we’re saying is that you should wear what is appropriate for the kind of job you’re going for.

For more reasons than one, you might not be able to stay in the same place as your family. It could be a job transfer on your part or your wife’s. It could also be because your child recently gained admission into a higher institution of study and has to leave the state. Regardless of what it is, you’ll need to be able to connect with your family over long distances.

Now, this might seem pretty hard if you aren’t used to it ordinarily. It might even feel like a total separation to you where you get to see your kids less. However, it doesn’t have to be so. The internet provides us with such excellent opportunities that we do not have to go several months or even hours without talking to those we care about the most.

As such, if you are looking to connect with your family over long distances, here are a few useful tips in that direction:

1. Ensure everyone is online

The internet allows for easy communication such that you can access everyone without having to go through too much of a hassle. However, you can only reap this astounding effect of the virtual world if you are actually on the internet.

So, if you want to connect with your family over long distances, you must do well to ensure that everyone is on an online platform that will bring you all together. An excellent example that allows for proper communication is Skype. Now, if you are worried about your kids misusing the opportunity of having a mobile device, you don’t necessarily need to put them on the internet. If they live with their mother in a different state, you just have to ensure that she is online, and through her, you can speak to them as well.

Especially if you are often swamped with responsibilities from work and in your family, it is only normal if you face difficulties when you try to make exercise a lifestyle habit. Many online media will try to tell you that you can do it if you simply want to do it. However, in reality, things are never that simple because life comes with its own challenges. Besides, what do you do when you really just don’t want to do it?

In that case, you need a set of activities that will act as propellants for you to work out when you have to do so. Call them a string of habits, a set of motivators, or anything else you like. But, these five tips will help you to make exercise a lifestyle habit such that you won’t find yourself quitting every chance you get.

1. Set reasonable fitness goals

If you’re here, then it’s very likely that you either don’t workout very often or you have been slacking off in your workout routine. Regardless of what the answer is, the truth remains that due to the “downtime,” your body isn’t very used to undergoing rigorous activity any longer. As such, if you want to start working out without quitting halfway, you should set reasonable goals for yourself. Do not plan to run three miles a day if you don’t normally hit that benchmark. If you do, you’ll be setting yourself up for failure.

The feeling of restlessness is one that is so common in our daily lives. It comes in many different forms and shapes. More often than not, it leaves your mind disorganized, and you cannot focus on a single line of thought.

It is the inability to find rest. There are multiple signs that point towards restlessness. Among others, a few include:

1. Tossing and turning in bed out of an inability to sleep.
2. Feeling the need to constantly do something. “Something” here could be any activity or range of activities from checking your phone to eating and watching a movie, among others. It is essentially the need to distract yourself with a mindless activity so that you don’t have to confront the problem itself.
3. Feeling edgy, agitated, and irritable for no particular reason.

Restlessness can be caused by a vast number of things. However, some believe that restlessness itself isn’t the problem. It is merely a symptom of an underlying issue you are yet to deal with. Considering that, it is a logical conclusion that when you deal with the problem, you’ll not have to deal with restlessness any longer. However, what happens when can’t quite get rid of the problem causing your restlessness yet?

For that reason, it is important that you learn how to cope with restlessness itself. Here are a few tips in that regard:
