I read about the contents of the newly published book by Yvonne Nelson; a Ghanaian actress. It is no longer news that she revealed so much about her personal life.
It is her story and it upto her to share and at her own time.
Wow! My heart goes out to Yvonne Nelson.It’s her guts to share her story with the world.
How can one not know their real father for that long?

Dear parents, please you can do better. Let your kids know their true story. It doesn’t matter if the situation or the personality of the other parent.
Do not allow them live a lie. It is wrong.
We live in a society where you are encouraged to voice out YET when you do so, you are told you shouldn’t have.
How do you preach SPEAK UP whilst you meant SHUT UP?
In the book, she talked about her failed relationships, pregnancy and abortion. She mentioned names of celebrities too.
It is her story. She has lived with them for long now and it’s her choice to share with the world or whom she who she wants.
Do you think she doesn’t know the consequences of such? I doubt. .
I hope she find some closure, satisfaction or whatever her intents were by speaking her truth.
Celebrities are humans too.
PS: I haven’t read the book yet. I wrote based on information circulating online and on her social media page.

Nothing that good happens by chance all the time. Have plans and make the most of your year. Try the things mentioned and be proud of yourself.
We are already in the second month of the year. Isn’t it amazing how a month some days are already gone?
Some of us are yet to figure out what to do or to expect this year. So, how has the year been so far for you?
Most times, some people will be quick to say “I do I don’t do new year resolutions.” That’s ok if you feel like saying so.
However, does that mean you do not have any expectation(s) for the year? Are there no targets you want to hit in an entire year?
I believe one can achieve a lot only when they have painstakingly thought about them and then work towards them. Not everything is to be left to chance.
There are things I will recommend you do for a productive year. This isn’t in any way an exhaustive list and is in no particular order.
1. Read books:
There is no limit to the amount of knowledge you can gain. Gaining more knowledge is an empowering tool. You want to be versed in the field you are in. Be intentional about the books you read too. Ensure you have inspirational books and success books handy.
Read biographies of successful people you admire or those you consider as your role models. Feed your brain with the kind of knowledge it deserves.
2. Learn a skill:
This can be a digital skill preferably. There are a lot to learn. You need to take up something new. Challenge yourself. If you have been doing something on a low key, up your game now. Take up both free and paid courses. Look up courses that aligns with that the things you are currently doing and those you want to explore.
3. Have multiple sources of income:
Do not be dependent on one job only for your earnings. Little income from here and there can help offset some bills. Explore many ideas and opportunities that present themselves. If you are online most times, do try affiliate marketing. You get to learn in the process too and possibly build your own brand afterwards if you wish. Explore remote job sites like Fiverr, Upwork and Appen.
4. Cryptocurrency:
Do some reading and begin buying some coins. The world is evolving and so should you to. Take up courses especially if you are interested in trading. You can start with exploring exchanges such as Binance, kucoin, and coinbase. Otherwise, you can buy some coins with prospects and hold onto them (hodl). If you have the money go for all time highs like Bitcoin, Ethereum etc. They can be bought in fractions too. Do not trade with urgent money like rent or school fees. Trading can be risky. Please, do your own research.
5. Be more visible on social media:
Try to promote yourself of what you do on different media platforms. Try to be very active on at least one of them. Be intentional about your time online. If you are a vendor or want to explore any line of business or freelance, do post about it and gradually build your brand. Different businesses, brands, authors and celebrities have been using this to gain more followers and influence. Try this for yourself.
6. Heal:
This isn’t applicable to everybody but to many. If there’s is something that has been bothering you, embrace it. You can confide in a counsellor or a priest. Speak to someone who wouldn’t judge you. You need to free yourself. There isn’t anything that has never been heard before. Do this for your overall well-being and peace of mind. Be at peace with yourself.
7. Pray in and out of season:
I cannot write all these without mentioning prayer. Have a good praying habit. This is important especially, you are the religious type. Master the act of committing all that concerns you in God’s hands. Pray for your family and friends, for your work and life goals. Prayers come with some kind of hope and peace; even when you face challenges.
For the religious types, write down all your goals. You can paste the list on your wall where you can easily see it. This can be replicated same on a vision board too.
In summary, a productive year begins with a plan, right mindset on hope to achieve them.
I hope you find this post valuable.
