How Intentional Are You?


Hello,Dia mi!

How are you doing today? I trust that you have been staying healthy and safe. It is important to be intentional about your well being.

I have an interesting fact for you. Did you know that you have to be intentional about even the littlest things? First off,let's examine what intent is. According to the online English dictionary,intent is fixed concentration or an unwavering focus on a course of action. 

In simpler words,it means giving time to a particular goal or action you want to do. It means carefully planning and taking steps towards whatever you want to do. Its as simple as writing a shopping list when going to the supermarket. You have the intention to go to the supermarket. However,you won't get there by just saying it. Writing a list is to start working towards the goal of going shopping.

Being intentional is as simple as this analogy😁. You might ask why you should be intentional. Why should you be intentional? It shows that you're ready to accomplish your goal. It shows that even though you don't have it all figured out,you're ready to give it a shot. No matter what it takes,you're going to be intentional about that savings goal,that new meal you want to learn,that relationship you want to restore.

Let's do a little exercise. Write that goal you want to achieve. Note down the strategic steps you have to take to achieve that goal. Make up your mind to take the first step. When you take the first step,you're more likely to see it through. Intention makes you more focused. It's that simple.

Be intentional about that new skill you want to learn,that short story you want to write,that course you want to take,that internship you want to apply to. Saying you want to do it isnt enough,you have to be INTENTIONAL (Okay,I'll shut up now😂)

How are you being intentional in your daily life? Is it emotionally or spiritually? Let's have a chat in the comments section. I hope to see you next time.

With love,
Peperempe.

Why You Should Drop That Fiction Book...For Now

Hello, Dia mi😁! How are you doing today? I hope you've been having a lovely week so far. As for me, I have had a lovely week of reading and online classes and it wasn't exactly bearable. Luckily for us, it's the weekend💃💃! I'm happy I was able to help you with tips to help you overcome failure in our last conversation. On the bright side, we'll be talking about books and how special they are. Books are treasures given to us for literally nothing and when we treat them that way, they change our lives forever. The kind of books I'm talking about is not this type but for reference purposes, this is also a book😂. I'm going to guess you read a fictional book recently. Even if my guess is wrong and you're reading one right now, can you drop it for a moment?  Before a moment gets long, I want you to know that I understand how boring self-help might be, especially if you're new to it. Most of them don't have that thrill, suspense and comedy your favo...

The New Sounds Of Nigerian Music

Hello,Dia mi! I trust that you have been doing well. It's a new month and a new chance for many of us to crush those amazing goals,right? What have you been up to? As for me,I have been listening to a whole lot of songs. My playlist is full of new sounds that I'm absolutely loving. I decided to share them with you😁. The corona virus pandemic has forced all of us to stay at home more than we would love to. Fortunately,this has helped many artists to hone their craft. Nowadays,songs are more about the lyrics than the beat.(Shaking a table😂) To be very honest, most Nigerian songs are about the beat. We love to listen to the beat because it lifts our mood and keeps us motivated. We had less time on our hands which made it easy to ignore lyrics. With more time on our hands,we can now listen to song lyrics patiently and with meaning.We prefer slower tunes with deep interpretations. Suddenly,a lockdown music revolution became the next big thing. In few months,we have moved from ear-...

I'm going to talk about important factors that make or mar relationships,whether romantic or not.All our life,we've always heard how one day,we'll fall in love and have a happy ever after with that special person. You've been lied to terribly. It never works this way. I guess this was passed around to shield us from the shocking reality. The shocking reality is that love is never ever enough!. Sounds unbelievable,right? I understand you,trust me. Have you ever wondered what holds the strong relationships we see around?. Dia mi,a lot of things come in other than love. Here's why some relationships last longer than others do. Commitment: This can never be underrated,or is it overrated? What I'm saying is you have to make up your mind to give time to your relationships. You have to con...
