@IamAuntyOnion

Worrying about the future never solved any problem. Instead, it takes away the energy and intelligence needed to solve present challenges.

Here's some in addition:

>> Stay away from toxic people
>> Be kind. Kindness is a superpower
>> Exercise often. Health is wealth

Wonderful post, OP. Thanks for sharing
Procrastination is a no no if you want to be successful. I know like most people do, if you have a habit of procrastinating, please stop.

2face Idibia once said “Life is so simple, but they make it complicated”. I think this summarises the underlying principle of life. Your life is yours to live, you don’t owe anybody any explanation on how you live your life so long as you are not hurting anyone.

Living a simple and peaceful life is as easy as it comes. However, like with everything else, it totally depends on the way and manner you approach situations in life. Here are 8 simple habits i have curated to help you live a very peaceful life. By inculcating some or all of the points listed here, you will be removing unnecessary and avoidable baggages.

1. Stop yourself from being judgemental.

It’s easy to judge other people. By judging others, most people pass down their views. Most people don’t realise that the moment you express your opinion of anything, you have passed a judgement.

You need to stop this. Opinions change, and they change very fast depending on situations. Before giving your opinion of anything, make sure you know the implications. If someone values your opinion, and it turned out to be trash, you would have disrespected yourself, and lost your dignity.

Note that opinions are different from statement of facts. Statement of facts are verifiable, unlike opinion. This Is not to say that some opinions are not conceived from facts.

2. Say ‘thank you’ early and often.

Gratitude is a virtue. At all times, learn how to be grateful. For all the things you think you don’t have, there are many more you have but are probably taking for granted.

Think of all the good things that has happened and is still happening in your life. Be grateful for them, and know that no-one has it all. The happiest people are those who are grateful for the little they have. Say ‘thank you’ always.

3. Smile more, Be yourself.

In case you don’t know how to, you could always smile to the other fella staring back at you in the mirror. Yes, use the mirror and practice the art of smiling. Smiling does open doors. Smiling makes you approachable.

Trust me, no-one wants to approach an angry or frowning looking person. We all have reasons to be angry or frown i guess, but there’s no need carrying it about on your face all day. Ain’t no prize for the best frowns!

4. Don’t worry about the future.

Well, actually, you can’t stop worrying about the future. However, you can stop worrying about things from the future that is not going to help your life today.

Remember, you need to live through today first before you can have a future to look forward to tomorrow. So, stop worrying about the future, and focus on the now. If you can make now better, you would have created a great future for yourself.

5. Listen to understand, not to respond.

You find that most people have their premeditated speeches stored in their mind. This forces them to focus more on trying to pour it all out during conversations or arguments. This approach may be wrong.

There is more to learn in listening. The more you listen, the more your mind becomes more critical and analytical. This helps the mind become more sharper, and with the ability to decipher what is important for the individual, including how to contribute meaningfully to any conversation.

By focusing on listening, your mind is forced to be critical, and to carefully interpret the information it is recieving.

6. Don’t procrastinate.

This cannot be overemphasized anymore. Procrastination is the enemy of time. In fact, anytime you get the urge to shift a particular chore you are supposed to do, that’s the moment you should do that chore immediately and be done with it.

When you procrastinate, you end up creating issues for your mind and brain. Your brains attention will forever be drawn to that unattended chores, and will metamorphose into a worrying spree for you.

You can avoid this by simply doing the work or chore immediately it comes up on your to-do menu.

7. Prioritize yourself.

Everyone is selfish, you should too. You should always come first in everything you do. This doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t help others when they ask for your help or go out of your way to help another. No, it simply means that when push comes to shove, you should always choose yourself.

8. Stop criticizing.

Most people are self-acclaimed critics. They will criticise everything and everyone else, but never themselves.

If you are among this group of people, you need to change this habit. Constant criticism of others most times it’s just a show of lack or frustration in the individual doing the criticism. Most of the times, the person doesn’t even realise it.

The Church of Satan is an atheist group based mainly in San Francisco, California, USA. Though the way and manner people perceive the group may seem different, the group has maintained its stance, and has been known for their savage replies on Twitter.

The Church Of Satan can be rightly said to be founded by the popular Anton Lavey, who was later made the High Priest of the Church Of Satan. The core belief system of Satanists is codified in their Doctrine called "The Satanic Bible".

SATANISM AND CORE BELIEFS

Most people mostly have a preconceived idea of what they believe Satanism worship is all about. The media alongside some entertainment houses have also latched onto the popular mythologies to explore some narratives, fueling it more.

Satanism worship contrary to mainstream opinions, do not worship any God or god's. They also do not recognise any of the god's of any religion as existing. Satanism was in fact used previously as a form of expression and criticism against the perceived ills in the society mostly occasioned by religious adherents.

"In LaVey's way of thinking, Satanism is both a distinctly new religion, which he himself, without any false modesty, invented and the continuance of an ancient tradition of opposition to the status quo... For LaVey, Satanism is also the religion of the playful provocateur; anything that will shock people out of their unthinking adherence to the status quo is worth thinking about or even doing." The words of a religious scholar, Eugene Gallagher.

Accusations of satanic worship and rituals especially within the Christian community are some of the reported reasons for widespread witch-hunts in the past, where people are burned to death for practicing witchcraft. The Spanish Inquisitions, the Salem witch trials, and countless other religious inspired purification acts have all been reported to be linked to the alleged worship of Satan.

So, what the founder did with the creation of Satanism was to use the belief in the supernatural as a way to criticize religious organizations of their own belief. This is the reason why their satan's symbol is used. It's usage is symbolic and for the Satanists, acts as a clear cut on the other believers of supernatural being. According to the founder, Anton Lavey, Satanism is: " A secular philosophy of rationalism and self-preservation (natural law, animal state), giftwrapping these ideas in religious trappings to add to their appeal."

That notwithstanding, there is also the other arm of Satanism known as Theistic Satanism. Here is an except from Wikipedia:
"Theistic Satanism or spiritual Satanism is an umbrella term for religious beliefs that consider Satan to be an objectively existing deity, supernatural being or force which is worthy of worship and supplication, whom individuals may contact, convene with and even praise, rather than just an archetype, a metaphor, a symbol or an idea as in LaVeyan Satanism."

So, unlike the actual church of Satan that exists solely as a mock of other established popular religions, theistic Satanists engage in actual worship of a central deity which they believe is also deserving of worship and love.

Theistic Satanism may be behind the now popular joyofsatan group that allegedly teaches people how to communicate with demons, god's and other alleged supernatural beings.

What this means is that for most Satanists group that share in the doctrines of The Satanic Bible, Satanism is just an escapist adventure as opposed to veneration of any actual deity. Although, the theistic Satanists do not share similar views with respect to veneration of a "Satan" as the central object of worship.

Again, the popularly known Aleister Crowley, the darling of Hollywood occultic movies when it comes to use of imageries, has stated that he also does not worship satan despite contrary opinions. According to him, he couldn't have been worshipping satan when he in fact does not subscribe to Christian views.

You're dumb

Talking about Barca these days feels exhausting. Everything just feels off. Is it the transitioning? Is it the Messi transfer issue? How about the management tussle? The latest joke in town is that Barca has more point in the Champions League, than they have in La Liga. You know the funny thing about the joke? It is true! As a matter of fact, that summarises Barca's 2020/2021 campaign so far.

For some reason, when i saw the the news about Messi not being part of the squad travelling to Kiev in Ukraine to face Dynamo Kiev, i felt happy. I even felt more happier when i saw the line up for the game. Was it justified? I guess it did.

Honestly, after the Messi transfer saga of the summer, for some reason, i now want other Barca players to start playing like Messi isn't at the club anymore. Because, like it or not, the reality is that no-one knows what will happen next as long as Messi is concerned. Though, i believe that if Joan Laporta wins the Barca presidency, then there might be hope.

Back to the topic. It was with gladness (although Barca rarely maintain such this days), that i watched Barca blow apart Dynamo Kiev in Ukraine with a 0-4 scoreline.

Is not just about the goals anyway, but more about those that scored the goal - Dest, Braithwaite (2) and Griezmann. You probably didn't know about the first two players right?

Dest was brought in as a direct replacement for Semedo after he was sold to Wolves while Braithwaite was brought in January last season when Suraez got injured. Needless to say, both had a point to prove, especially Braithwaite, after being left frequently on the bench.

When Braithwaite was handed his opportunity against Dynamo Kiev, he never looked back, scoring two goals to crown his efforts for the night. This is good news, especially when you look at the fact that he is actually Barca's only out and out striker.

Dest was phenomenal against Dynamo Kiev, capping his massive onslaught with a finely executed goal. Europe, here comes the hot-stepper! I'm short of words and eulogies to describe him now.

But, i know i had a lot on my mind to say about Dest after the match. I pray he continues with such form and spirit though.

Griezmann had a huge influence on the game the moment he came on, capping his wonderful performance on the night with a wonderful goal. Is Griezmann back? Seems Griezmann always plays better when Messi isn't in the team.

On a general note, the team was superb against Dynamo Kiev. Special mentions ; Riqui Puig and Coutinho. With what i saw, I know Barca isn't finished yet.

Although, the shortcomings in La Liga this season leaves a lot of sad tales.

The football world recently lost a global icon to a sudden Cardiac Arrest. Cardiac Arrest is a major killer condition. When you even realise further that it could literally happen anywhere, and mostly all of a sudden, it becomes more frightening. Needless to say, the casualty rate for cardiac arrests are high.

What does Cardiac Arrest Mean?

Well, from the name, you already know that 'cardi' is mostly used to refer to the heart and it's related functions all over the body. So, in this instance, 'cardiac arrest' means that the heart suddenly stops working and the beating stops immediately.



Once this occurs, there is no blood flow again to the brain and every other part of the body. From the description already, you already know how dangerous this is.

So, here are five important things to note about this dangerous emergency medical condition.

1) Cardiac Arrest is different from 'Heart Attack'. Heart attack mostly happen when blood could no longer properly flow through the arteries, thereby coagulating or blocking the arteries. This prevents movement of blood, and therefore cause heart attack.

However, Cardiac Arrest is sudden and brief. Think of that awkward moment when an 'electric generator' suddenly malfunctions and stops instantly. It's similar to what happens during cardiac arrest.

2) The death statistics of cardiac arrest victims are 9:10. According to reports, only one in ten people survive a cardiac arrest. However, this survival can only occur if -

• there is immediate reversal within minutes.

Therefore, the chances of survival depends entirely on the nearest emergency delivering by-the-minute emergency services like CPR.

3) Risk Factors!

It is advised to know your risk factors all the time. For example, allergies. Allergies are simply things your body system doesn't like.

For Cardiac Arrest, the risk factors are numerous. Here are some of the conditions that can trigger Cardiac Arrest in a person.

• The person have suffered heart attack in the past.

• Has suffered any coronary artery related disease.

Coronary artery disease risk factors include High Blood Pressure, smoking cigarettes, diabetes, high cholesterol or fat in blood, etc.

4) Also, things like blood perfusion pressure, family history with heart diseases and abnormal heartbeats are also risk factors that can necessitate the killer sudden arrest. Take note.

Once you notice any palpitations around your heart region, seek medical help immediately, don't self-medicate or think that drinking water will solve the problem. Please, life is too precious.

5) Lifestyle!

The type of lifestyle a person lives also plays a major role in cardiac arrest. Sedentary lifestyles are as a matter of fact, frowned upon by medical experts.

Apart from that, smoking is also another lifestyle that may trigger a cardiac arrest. Doctors advise that as much as possible, eat a balanced meal and be physically active.

Ikennablue:
do you believe everything written in the Bible??

Pierocash:
you are a dumb kid with comprehension issue, read my last comment before the last sentence. I told you people I know many,and the ones there property got burnt. You can still choose to call misinformation, I don't really need to give anymore education to an illiterate. Only blocked brains don't learn,and incorrigible.

If you want to know how ignorant and silly your believe system is, go out and put up this your insipid opinion to the public,you will come back to realise you the only one walking through this rope of idiocy

Standing5:
The love of money is real.

Pierocash:
I don't waste my time with kids like you.

You can continue been careless, by the time head slammers go catch you ,nah dollar your head go produce.

Telling to google Eze ego is to let you learn about men that threaded that part before you were born.

If you then think that sourcing information through the use of google is termed misinformation or brainwashing. Then sorry,I can't help your gross ignorance

Pierocash:
it is pitiable that someone who is born in an African society and Nigeria by extension is feigning so much ignorance that money ritual doesn't exist. Then I must say it is either you pretending, or simply insensitive to the realities and dangers of your society.

Young man,stop sounding laughable, even kids will laugh at you. I know them many who didn't end well,some there houses were raised down when the secret exposed. Go to Anambra and say this ,guys will just look at you like mugu,or korofo.

Yahoo plus you hear about is what? You can Google Eze ego in the 90s then maybe you can understand

Pierocash:
It is obviously certain that this Op knows nothing.

Money ritual is real and it exists amongst us here in the society.

What you are delving into is too deep for kids like you to understand. There are mystic powers,whether you are conscious of it or not. Ignorance isn't a crime,but it is dangerous to be to naive about the system you were born into,watch your back,your head may be the next treasure that rich man living close to your house may use for his annual renewal

sissoko89:
Money rituals do exist
devil ways of blessing his or her followers

I often read with sadness, the many news reports about some person or group of persons being caught with items connoted as “ritualistic” or similar listings. The last one was the recently released news trending online about two boys caught in Ogwashi-Uku, Aniocha South Local Government Area, Delta State. The news was published by Vanguard.

According to the news report, the two boys were allegedly caught with a casket full of women inner wears. From the report, the boys were caught by the mob who would have unleashed a jungle justice save for the swift intervention of the police.

From the news report, we see that the young men were not even been caught or charged with possession of stolen items (female wears), which they are actually guilty of. But, they were about to be mobbed for something that exists in the figment of the imagination of the alleged mob and the alleged two culprits of the said “yahoo yahoo” imaginary ritual.

Honestly, this is heartbreaking. Heartbreaking for the boys as well as their captors. Why do i say that? Firstly, something must be really not mentally right with someone that thinks that anyone can make money ritualistically through women wears. It’s absolutely ridiculous, absurd and totally quite appalling. It’s illogical, unreasonable and irrational at all level to even believe that there is a magical ritual somewhere that can create a financial overflow for anyone under any ritualistic disguise whatsoever.

In case i have been speaking in tongues since, if you believe that someone can do yahoo ritual or whatever with female clothings, and be a superstar or billionaire, then something is definitely wrong with your cognition! They say it’s a kolomental case! Money ritual na better scam!

Please kindly advise or share with anyone you know to avoid this repeating occurrence of people and their imaginary money making rituals claims. This false information that you can be rich through some imaginary money ritual has to stop to save innocent lives.
