FOR YOUR INFORMATION, MY DARLINGS...

By

Shalla (local way of saying ‘shout out’) to the most important people in my life!!! Errrmm…that’ll be after God, MYSELF, my parents, my wonderful siblings, Le Boo…then you of course! I’ve missed you all. How have you been dearies? What’s the latest news at your end?
I’ve been doing great. So many things to be done within a short time, but I am enthusiastic about them all. We’re fighters. We take charge. We don’t give up! 

 However, there’s a not so good news I am about to pass…relax, nobody died oh!
Just as I promised some time ago, I said I wouldn’t leave the blog unattended to without prior notice to our readers. Well, here I am...

 I’m taking time off to sort out some very important issues in my life (I’m not getting married, thanks for asking. LoL). I sincerely don’t know how long I’ll be away, maybe a week or two weeks, tops, but I’ll try to come back (here) as soon as possible. I encourage that you still visit and catch up on previous articles which you missed or articles you picked interest in, you’ll always find something more interesting which you didn’t see the first time.
Hold forte! I’ll be sharing all the good news when I get back, so I expect you’ll still be here then. Please miss me plenty!!!
I cannot leave you guys without some words of wisdom I came across sometime ago while reading...

QUALITIES OF A LEADER
1)      GREAT VISION: A leader should have a concept, a plan (both long term and short term plans). This will act as a map to a destination. If you do not have a plan, you settle for anything.
2)      HARDWORK: Everyone has a part to play in this one. As a leader, the bulk of this is on your table. You cannot be lazy and expect your subordinates to do all the work. Nah!

3)      EFFECTIVE DELEGATION: It is okay for a leader to delegate duties, but it has to be done wisely to achieve better results, and for the overall benefit of the team. Discover the strengths, weaknesses and passion of each team member and use the knowledge to effectively delegate tasks.

4)      POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT/TEAM BUILDING: Strengthen, encourage your team. Give out constructive feedback to team members. ‘’Praise in public, criticize in private’’.

5)      SUCCESSOR: Be a mentor. Inspire someone else. ‘’the function of a leader is to produce more leaders, not more followers’’.

Till we get to chat again, warm hugs and gentle kisses from me,
Barby.

OF COMMITMENT AND STUPIDITY

Today is one of those rare occasions when I have no idea as to what this article's title should be, even though I have thought it through for a while. No befitting title comes to my head. One of the reason for this is because I'm kinda pissed...Not with you guys, not with myself, but with the story that forms the background of this article. I'm sure some of the media savvy people here might have read it somewhere, or heard about it from someone. I knew there was fire on the mountain somewhere, but I never really took my time to read what the hullabaloo was all about (reading is educating really. Never ignore any piece of information you see, you never know how it will help you, or what information you're missing out on). This story is a crazy one, so I'll try to share as best as I can. Note that it is just going to form a background to the major discussion on commitments (YES! We just found a title. Thank God.) A certain celebrity couple had a major commitmen...

KNOW YOUR PLACE!!!

Hi B-Diarians! How have y'all been? And how's the weather at your end? It's been raining cats and dogs here. In the past days, I've been drenched on my way to work. It's so bad that I've sometimes gotten to work pretty late or my footwear gets bad...very frustrating situations. I get to the office and all I want to do is take the day off and go buy a posh car in peace, but then again...I am humbled by my account balance jare . I just respect myself, sit in my seat and drink hot tea or coffee! Few nights ago, I was having a conversation and then there was this funny story I was told. Let me try to summarize...a boyfriend and a girlfriend went for a birthday party somewhere, the bf stepped out for a while and came back with a male friend who sat beside him in the front seat. It was time to leave the party and the male friend was in the front seat, the lady insisted she must sit in front while her bf's friend should go to the b...

Drum roll people! The blog is 1. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I couldn't have done this without You. Yes, You! No long story today...I just appreciate everyone. I really do. Thanks for urging me on, for reading, for commenting, for liking and sharing my posts, and for the goodwill. I don't take it for granted. I really don't. A quick word of encouragement though, JUST DO IT. Yes, just do it! You never know. I remember I always wanted to write. Not news or celebrity stories, but real life issues, day to day happenings and co. Not because I know so much (I'm pretty young), but because I want to know more, because I want to feel the pulse of other people and learn from them, because sometimes, it is easier to write than to talk, because most secrets live within us or in between the lines, because it is better to pour it out before it kills you or dies inside of you...because I know the world would be better if we all loved and understood each other more. I r...
