I don’t believe success is genetically determined, because if that is the case, it means some of us won’t even stand a chance. I believe success is a product of what you do and do not do. And even if it was genetically determined, you’d still need to put the genes to work, else, they’d lie dormant. These acts that determine success eventually become the signs that others will see, and know that you’re destined for success. This means that no matter who you are, what you do, and your circumstances, you can be a badass successful woman if you put these acts to work.   So, what are the…

My Struggle With Timidity ‘’No matter how brilliant, intelligent or talented you are, if you are too timid, you will miss out on many opportunities that can better your life. The floor belongs to the bold.’’   I wrote the above on my Facebook status last year, and it garnered hundreds of reactions and comments from people who were struggling with timidity.

As humans, we form and maintain habits even without us knowing. Habits are actions we perform regularly, so regularly that we even do them without thinking about them because they’ve become part of us. For instance, eating.

Habits help us to develop routines that make life orderly and organized. Imagine doing different random things every day. Life will be chaotic that way. But the painful truth is that, it’s harder to form and maintain good habits than bad habits. So, if you’re someone who…
