Nothing more dangerous than an idea, when you only have one idea...

(jamesmusicstudio.com)

I’m the type of person that effectively plans a schedule and often ideas distract me from it. The key task is to minimise distracting ideas in order to remain on schedule with what needs to be done. This is can be done by reminding oneself what is more important and directing focus on getting it done.

Just when I think I’m done…

Initially my aim was just to complete my National Diploma. Towards the end of the obtaining my qualification, I decided to persevere and do my Btech (Degree). As daunting as the process has been, it has inspired me to commit myself to lifelong learning. I intend to gain some work experience and then explore other avenues using my qualification as a foundation for further learning.



Have you figured out the second head fake?

Last year, I arranged an exhibition and an event around mental illness month. From the research conducted, I realised that not many people are aware of mental illnesses and that mental illnesses are misunderstood. Many serious implications result when mental illnesses go untreated. Mental illness patients don’t fake the symptoms of their conditions. They simply just cannot help feeling or behaving the way they do.

How I overcome challenges…

(elegrity.com)

How one deals with challenges, will determine how one will overcome those challenges. I view all challenges (whether personally or professionally) as opportunities. An opportunity to learn and gain experience for making better informed decisions in the future. I commit myself to the challenge at hand then focus and consider all the alternatives necessary for successfully overcoming challenges. Perseverance is the key attribute.

I am...

(wwwcs102blogspotcom.blogspot.com)

Who I am has no significance to you, if you are not willing to make the time to get to me. My true self is manifested when artificial politeness becomes transparent in another person and/or when true sincerity is apparent. I am critical and very analytical by nature and experience has taught me not to share too much of myself.

I value friendship...

(best-reviewer.com)

Unlike family, one can choose one’s friends. Throughout my life I formed many friendships. To me friendship is about quality and not quantity. I chose to have true friends opposed to having many fake friends. Because I value the essence of friendship, I love and treat my friends like family.

A skill set called leadership...

(blog.leadingresources.com)

No one was born a leader. Skills need to be cultivated and need to be fully developed to be successful and one needs to work hard to be a good leader. www.ginabudi.com stated that there is no scientific dat that shows people are 'born leaders". I too believe that it is a skill that is acquired through endurance.

Tupac and Biggy Smalls feud...

(mexican-taint.com)

Rap music grew popularity in the 1990's. Growing up in the 90's I was fimilar with Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls' music. Although they died, I never really understood their feud. And I always wondered, what happened. www.trutv.com explained the feud:  The two rappers slandered one another with increasing viciousness and frequency. An East coast - West coast feud developed pitting Tupac's record label against Biggie's record label. The feud eventually escalated from a battle of word to a bloody war. In seperate incidents both men were shot multiple times while sitting in front passenger seats of their vehicles.

"Rock journalism is people who can't write interviewing people who can't talk for people who can't read" (Frank Zappa)

(topnewsongslist.com)

Before writing this blog post,  I had no idea rock journalism even existed. I then researched the topic. I myself, am not a fan of rock music, nor would I find it interesting write about something that doesn’t interest me. The statement itself is self-explanatory. Journalist are writers. Rock journalists can’t write nor can they interview rock musicians because all they do is make noise.
