Coping with Relationship Politics

Extract from the book;  Family Soup “Sweetheart , you have totally changed, why?”. She asked in a sad mood. Those are the many statements we can’t miss in relationships & Marriages. I am sure that on the epitome of things for any happy relationship, there should be understanding that change will come. Many people hold on the false beliefs that things will remain the same for the rest of their lives and the people they fall in love with. Everything changes in this world, people change, places change , attitudes change, thoughts change and opinions change , but for some reason (wrong of course) we think the person we loved on day one will be the same for the rest of their lives. When you first get together with your partner, it’s like everything is out of a dream. Looks like an unimaginable dream come true, You get excited, you sweetly enjoy dates, and you imagine ways you could get the bliss ever. But as the bible says , there is time for everything to be born and to die. This whole phase of fantasies also end, which is inevitable no matter how deep and sweet in love you are.

When your Partner Cheats! – Truth to Face!

Hurt, betrayed, disappointed, disrespected is all we feel when Cheated on. To love and open your heart to another is such a vulnerable thing to do and when we get cheated on indeed we get into a very dire helpless situation.

Men denied s3x in the morning are likely to be poor performers at work and in life

A year before my century-aged granny passed on, i sat with him to share about different ideas concerning humanity, I don’t recall well how we landed to this but we found ourselves into a conversation about sex in marriages and relationships today. He was a realist and great friend. “Unlike today where ladies are denying broke husbands sex and taking sex to be a sort of exchange after a certain work/pay, it was different in our days and it should be that way, Sex was given to the husband and taken important for some great reasons beyond just happiness, fun or relief”. He explained as i was all ears attentive. “First of all, sex should be valued due to the reason that it is practiced to realize who we are, after sex we get to reflect exactly on who we are when naked and cut open, Next this leads us to fulfill God’s direction, that is for production, secondly it should be a reward and respect to each other due to his brilliant choice of humbling each other among many other humans, it is an ant-stress medication to a man and an empowerment of success and a blessing, any man

“Honey! pass me the soup bowl” She said

Some years back when i was at the heights of revamping my career, I invited her for dinner and my intention was to make her aware & consult from her about my decision. Basically, i had made up an immutable choice of going into purposeful entrepreneurship, performance training, authorship  and consultancy. I knew i was headed for hard times, so talking to her would mean i had a cheer voice behind, i thought, but i was wrong. I am talking of my girlfriend then. We had a dinner talk. Half way into my ambitious explanations, she looked at me  with seemingly twisted lips and a tired-like look from the other side of the table and Said:  “Honey , pass me the soup bowl, permit and favor me to enjoy my dinner please”.  Precisely, she thought i was out of my mind , she had always encouraged me to get a day job  as i keep my petty trade businesses as side hustles. To her i was daring the impossible. I thought she would believe in my dream but she didn’t,  and a month later she called it quits as i couldn’t afford her wedding before my dream took off, she

On Relationships and Love!

Whenever i speak at any seminar or gathering and share my experiences and thoughts on life, people often ask me about Love. Tough topic to me. I understand love beyond the conventional standards and sometimes it can bud many arguments. “Love is a fascinating, but also a delicate thing”. I always respond with that famous quote. It’s crazy and unimaginable what love can do to us. The experiences of being taken over, leaked and licked, purely naked and soul-open to someone is so adventurous. It’s crazier with the feeling that it gives you. That kind of cosmic related influence that keeps us restless. Some relationships fail immediately, while some start to fall apart slowly – and of course, the ones that last. I have had some fair taste of my own. But regardless of how the relationship ends, there’s one thing i know about all of it. They are all amazing. I value love and relationships based on experiences. Each love or relationship is amazing regardless the time it (will) last(ed). Each relationship you have had, shape you to be the person you are. Relationships are a mirror before us to see who we are and what we are capable

Meet the incredible entrepreneur; Denis Mukungu

Denis Mukungu is the co/founder and CEO Eastern TraveLouge: a tours and travel firm that offers unrivaled transformation through travel and tour experiences across Uganda. For any entrepreneur to succeed, there must be key attributes they possess and in this article, i precisely share attributes i have learnt in observing Denis’ work. Dedication This is what motivates the entrepreneur to work hard, 12 hours a day or more, even seven days a week, to get the endeavor off the ground. Denis shows an incredible art of dedication to his craft that you can never imagine. Determination This is the extreme strong desire to achieve success. It includes persistence and the ability to bounce back after rough times. It persuades the entrepreneur to make the 10th phone call, after nine yielded nothing. Of course we can’t assume things are always smooth for him, but the way he consistently puts his brand up is nothing but sheer determination. Passion Passion is what gets entrepreneurs started and keeps them there. It gives entrepreneurs the ability to convince others to believe in their vision and buy products. Denis, passion and his business sounds like a repetition. It’s just one word to him. It’s something

Friday Martin on Digitizing Communities

” Let yourself be silently drawn by the strange pull of what you really love. It will not lead you astray” – Rumi. Friday Martin aka Bwana Marshal is an accountant by profession and a farmer by default. Passionately he is a digital enthusiast, social media influencer and a philanthropist. This is not the most interesting part about Martin though. Martin is not just a digital enthusiast but an icon in creating digital solutions for communities. Conventionally a community is a gathering of people (most times sharing same language, values and beliefs), but in this digital era it is so easy to bring unlike-minded people from diverse corners of the world to have a platform that liken their minds and cause. Digital communities enable humanity from diverse locations to have a chance to improve their access to information, enhance their personal and professional growth and also help in creating networks of impact from wherever they are. Digital communities share a diversity of industry/society social, political and economic opinions, ideas, and knowledge that one would have never encountered in the analogue communities. We cannot talk about all this without having Martin as the feature face of such trends that are transforming
