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...

THE FASA WEEK

Image
  H mm, 2023, the beginning of a new year held the outstanding seven old lads of the faculty of arts, Lagos State University ,in anticipation of the most fascinating program of all time, tagged "THE FASA WEEK". The Fasa week consisting of programs such as "THE QUEEN AND KING OF FASA", where by various talented individuals comes out to battle for the crown.    An auditorium filled with so many audience consisting of students, friends and important personnel, screaming and clamoring for the candidate of their choice . A program filled with so much suspense, whereby all hands are on deck to know who wears the crown.    Hmm, the Fasa week, a week whereby a FASA TRADE FAIR is staged, under the beloved and famous Abe-Igi, filled with young and skilled entrepreneurs and so much noise of them clamoring to passersby "sister come and bag clothes", "Brothers I have nice necklaces, please patronize me".   Hmm, the fasa week, where the talented foot...

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...

AFTERMATH OF UNIVERSITY

Image
  My life has felt like a sequence of stepping stones lately. completing primary school so I could learn the fundamentals for secondary school, then taking the WAEC to earn the necessary credentials to attend university. Now that I'm 19 years old, I'm still trying to convince myself that because I finally got into the university that I always wanted to go and am now on my way to some fantastic profession by clinging to my notes on the Russian revolutions of 1905 and 1917. Except that I don't know how to advance in my career, and I don't think I'm alone in that.   I understand that people discover something about which they are incredibly enthusiastic through time and come to terms with the paths their lives are on. We all start university with aspirations of becoming, among other professions, actors, lawyers, and doctors. But in my situation, I started university knowing nothing other than that having a history and international studies degree would make people beli...

Student life isn’t as easy as it seems…

 It’s about time we popped the bubble, parents and friends telling us that we lay about all day eating cans of baked beans, get drunk most nights and constantly try to sponge off them. Well we’re here to out the record straight. IT’S NOT THAT SIMPLE. Except the last one, we may do that a little bit. Let’s bust some of those commonly spread student life myths…  We work, HARD. Yes honestly we do! Many of us are juggling jobs and degrees at the same time. Some have kids and other responsibilities whilst at university. Not everyone is a party animal Similar to the ‘real world’ most people like to go to bed at a reasonable hour and get up at a reasonable hour too.

University is about more than just find a job at the end of it For many, university will be there first time living away from home. It’s about becoming se...

How to deal with common flatmate problems

One of the hardest and most stressful parts of living at university is often not the studying and workload, but is, in fact, living with new people away from home, and dealing with all the problems that come with it. Common problems that can arise include issues around cleaning and chores, but also noise complaints and different sleep/life schedules. Here are some tips to try and help you solve some of these issues: Don’t retaliate . Although it is so tempting to dump your flatmates washing on the floor when they leave it in the machine for days or allow your own washing up to build up to show them how annoying it is. In the long run, this is not the best solution. Retaliation just gives more of a reason for them to continue and react back. Instead, try to ensure you keep doing your own jobs so that they have no reason to argue back with you. Create a rota . The best way to solve any arguments about chores such as cleaning is to create a rota at the start of the year...
