2016!!! CONNECT!!

Hey!
*Screams HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!*
Yes I was MIA; lol, it comes with the festivities of the new year. But I'm back now. I'll try not to be missing in action *big grin*

My last statement can be seen as a New Year's resolution. Lol. This happens to everyone yearly.
For a while I even stopped writing mine because whenever I look back I'm like 'ugggh these things are still pending' but then I heard a message on Habakkuk 2 verse 2; which says "and the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it".
After that I guess the rest is history.

I believe the problem is not just writing down your goals or resolutions but adhering strictly to them; because we all know that a lot can happen in a year.
For instance, your resolution is to loose weight, you've actually made the plans; like what to eat, when to eat, when to exercise, even bought the training kit and looked up 'how to make your diet meals interesting'. You've put up with the charade for like 2 months, then you just relapse, and before you know it you've gained all the weight you've lost.
That's why many people don't believe in New Year's resolutions, because they are usually like what's the point?

If you are going to embark on a New Year's Resolution; be SMART!
Specific.
Measurable
Attainable
Realistic
Time bound.
These should be what constrains every resolution you've penned down.

Moving on, every church has a theme for the year, (I use 'church' because that's the term I'm more familiar with) and I thought 'hey theInspiredCutiee should have a theme for the year'. One of my 'jams' for 2015 was Phyno's Connect. That song is dope! Whaadidyousayy?? Lol. The basis of the song is How important your connections are in your life.
Ergo, CONNECT is my theme for the year.

Looking at Connect from a different perspective for 2016:
*Connect with God in a higher dimension, HE'S the most important connect my dear.
*Connect with family and friends (see me sounding like a hypewoman for MTN, lol).
*Establish new connections. Expand your social circle, you'll need it.
*Connect with your partner; those who are in relationships and if you aren't in one, connect yourself to one *sticking out my tongue*
*On a lighter note, connect with a good service provider all ye who have complained about network issues *big grin*. They've made it easy for you PORT (if its phone issues you have). Or get a new one (in this instance for those with issues concerning banks, internet, hardwares e.t.c.)

Well, this is where I'll put a full stop because I think I have covered the basis. (stop by tomorrow oh *big grin*)

I wish you an amazing 2016. I pray you look back and smile and thank God at the end of 2016.


With love, theInspiredCutiee

I am usually all for honesty; I wrote this piece for one the blogs I feature in, but apparently it couldn’t fly because it didn’t centre on an African, (which is good, we got to celebrate Africa). ‘No worries', I said to myself, 'I wrote it, Emma Gonzalez inspires me, so, ama share it here'… While valentine’s festivities for the year was in the air, students of Majory Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida were experiencing the most memorable days of their youthful lives; a fellow student of the above named school went on a rage and killed seventeen people. Seventeen lives were lost because one unstable person had his hands on a weapon of destruction. This event is not just a traumatic one for those involved, but more of an uproar; come on, its rational for anyone in this situation to be livid. Having seen clips of the incident, watched the town hall meeting aired by CNN, read tributes, speeches, and the ever trending hashtags #WeCallBS #NotAgain, it’s amazi...

Ta-Da!

Hey there! Been a while right? Probably more than a while, feels like an abandonment… Apologies… but *silent drum rolls* I’m back, and back with a bang! So, this is the Comeback post of the Inspired Cutiee! Why was I MIA? What happened? It would be clichéd to say ‘Long story’ because the story is not that long, (honestly) it was a fusion of procrastination, laziness, clogged mind, more procrastination, drive for ‘the perfect post’ and most of all… lack of inspiration. But, let’s hope that’s all in the past. Sigh, yes, I know I make a lot of promises, (this is not a new year’s resolution; been there, done that mehn) but this one has to be kept. The goal therefore is to schedule posts, so even when I run of out inspiration, there’ll always be something here. Not bad right? Speaking of what happened, I should add; it’s not like I stopped writing in its entirety, I mean I wrote and still write for other blogs, my office’s social media and blogsite, WhatsApp stories, ...
I like to meet people who inspire me.. One of them is Abraham, in the HR department of Jumia. I messaged him a while back via LinkedIn and asked if there were any available positions in the HR department and he said the was only a vacancy for an intern and I went for an interview. That day on my way for the interview, I witnessed some lady get crushed by a vehicle on Ikorodu road. I was mortified and then began to reflect on my life. It could have been anyone I said.. What if she was going to work? Or had an interview like me? Anyways not to digress, lol, I wasn't feeling so up to the interview, I even got there late, in my mind I was like 'oh well what ever happens happens'. Then I got to meet him, honestly I'll rate myself a 3 for that interview because I didn't even try to impress. *covers face* But the reason for this post is the young man who interviewed me.. He said somethings about his personality that gave me a whole perspective on who I want to be. ...
