The Myth Of Being Productive

Image
We tend to consider productivity to be a never ending search for something more. More output, more results, more optimization, more meetings, more things checked off to-do lists. More efficiency. But always being busy is in itself a major distraction from the things that actually touch us, that make us happy. We humans think that what we call “being productive” should automatically fill their void. The hole that they feel eating them away. But, sure enough, it never does. Creating things, achieving things, taking things off to-do lists are all activities that feel amazing a first. It’s like a drug. But we risk ending up focusing so much more on productivity than on what’s really going on underneath ourselves. We keep busy because we actually avoid looking at what’s steaming inside, at how we really think about ourselves. We sacrifice our social lives, our romantic lives, our family life at the altar of checking things off lists and letting this define who you are. We ten...

A LETTER TO OMOTOLANI

Image
     To Omotolani, After all this time, I'm writing to you to let you know that I am aware of your unspoken concerns and that you are making an effort to maintain your composure. I am able to look behind your quiet and also the load, the regrets, the failures, and the hope. Unfortunately, I'm traveling because I'm looking for a reason. My focus may seem to be elsewhere, but I can see. After suffering comes development, and as the seed of insight grows, I am able to perceive the struggle against the odds and the yearning to get out of this quicksand.   I observe the daily race against time that society is forcing us to participate in while our race is left behind and pushed to emerge from an unfavorable soil. I observe every damaged soul running away from the source of inner peace.    I'm writing to let you know that I've embarrassed manhood by crying for love for the first time and suffering heartbreak as all the memories I've made are drowned to prevent ag...

Lasu Electoral movie: Cast and Characters

Image
Political action is something we feel, breathe and live every second of every day. Political action engulfs us completely in the way we live together and see society. It is something that cannot be denied, it is the reflection of what people want. Our day is marked by continual upheaval and shifting political power. There isn't a day that goes by without some aspect of our world-changing,  Since politics has moulded the modern world, establishing and destroying the most powerful of nations, politics is a fundamental aspect of mankind. While liberating the most downtrodden, it has also been used to dominate the masses. It's no more breaking news that it's that time of the semester when potential candidates for the departmental, faculty, and Lasusu level student elections are advertised on posters, flyers, and even the internet. Although politics gives students a chance to participate in school administration, it also gives them a chance to learn more about how government fun...

Image
  Numerous prominent landmarks can be found across Nigeria but one stands out from the pack for both its aesthetics and historical significance. Abeokuta is the capital City of Ogun State, Nigeria. It was founded by Shodeke in 1830. Abeokuta can be translated into English as 'Refuge Under the Rock' as the presence of giant rocks that dominates the landscape aided refugees during the disintegration of Old Oyo. The most notable of these rocks happens to be the Olumo Rock which is now a center of Tourist attractions.  The student society of History and international studies, LASU Chapter on excursion decided to visit this historical site and indeed they had fun and learned new things about the rocks you'll never find surfing the web 😜.  However beautiful moments were captured and here are ten pictures you don't want to miss from the excursion.  Number 1.

YOU HAVE TRANSFORMED????

 You've Modified   Probably all of us have heard this at some time... "You've transformed" appears to be regarded as one of the harshest criticisms out there, whether we've been the ones delivering it or the ones receiving it, and I could not be more irritated by the reputation. Humans develop and evolve, therefore it would be a little strange if we didn't occasionally alter. I'm not the same person I was years ago, and I don't want to be, I can readily say looking back. Yes, my pals and I started to drift away when I was 14 because of "change," but change need not be a terrible thing. I wouldn't want to be the same meek, frightened 14-year-old who was hesitant to speak up for what he believed in out of concern that he would be judged. Yes, the me who grew in self-assurance and social skills alienated my old "friends," but in the end, it was for the better. Because of this, occasionally our personalities may alter or we may no l...

A Letter to My "Crazy" Acolytes

Image
      A Letter to My "Crazy" Acolytes The few who understand my "crazy," I'm aware that I'm not always the most pleasant person to be around. Sometimes my mind takes over, I lose control, nothing feels right, and I start to question all I've learned. I spur you aside, make unintentional comments, and cry. A lot. I hope I could assure you that it won't happen again and that everything is OK and that I'll always be upbeat, encouraging, and "easy to work with," but the reality is that I can't make such a promise. I try to keep as much to myself as possible, But in reality, I can't promise that. I try to keep as much to myself as I can, but I detest it when other people are caught in the crossfire. I am so grateful that you did not let feeling like a bother or having you in my affairs affect how you behaved around me.   I believe that I become frightened and reclusive because I'm so accustomed to having my flaws used against me....
