@Raising Spines in Timid Youths

@Raising Spines in Timid Youths



Life does not pamper anyone into greatness. It calls for courage, resilience, and an unyielding spirit. Yet, in our time, many young people are shrinking from responsibility, timid in the face of correction, collapsing under resistance, and retreating at the sound of rejection. The truth remains: the challenges you run away from here today will wait for you there tomorrow, stronger.


How then can courage be inculcated, developed, and nurtured in timid youths? It begins with truth, not flattery. Youths must be told plainly that obstacles are not enemies—they are ladders. Every challenge you dare to face adds strength to your spine. Every resistance you push through builds endurance in your soul. Every rejection you refuse to internalize sharpens your focus and redirects you toward better doors.


Sadly, some parents do not help matters. In the name of love, they shield their wards from life’s blows, encouraging them to quit at the slightest discomfort. Such overpampering may feel tender in the moment, but it cripples courage for the future. Youths so raised grow into adults unprepared for life’s realities, easily wounded, always blaming others, and forever stuck in cycles of timidity.


The principle is clear: action triggers reaction. If a young person keeps exhibiting timidity, laziness, and an unwillingness to learn or grow, they will continue to attract the same reaction of rejection, hostility, and frustration. It will almost appear as if “everybody everywhere” is conspiring to hate them. In truth, the world is not conspiring—it is simply responding to the signals they send.


This is why youths must wake up and face life head-on. They must understand that correction is not an insult but an investment. Resistance is not the end but a test. Rejection is not final—it is redirection. Each experience is meant to build them, not break them. To cower in fear is to waste destiny; to stand with courage is to step into significance.


In this age, only the bold succeed. The timid are overlooked. The lazy are left behind. The overpampered find themselves stranded when reality finally roars. What is needed is a generation of youths with spines—strong enough to take responsibility, flexible enough to learn, and resilient enough to rise after every fall.


So, young person, get up. Grow up. Toughen up. The future does not belong to the timid. It belongs to those who have cultivated courage, embraced correction, endured resistance, and conquered rejection without surrender. Life is not waiting for you to feel ready—it is waiting for you to get spine.


Yours in fulfilment,

@Thank You for Leaving Me

Image
@Thank You for Leaving Me Sometimes, the greatest blessings come disguised as heartbreak. It’s in the moments of loss and separation that we find clarity, growth, and transformation. To my ex, to my former friend, to my former colleague, to my former roommate, to my former coursemate, to my estranged relative, to my former pastor, to my former business partner, to my former confidant, the one who once held a space in my life, I want to say thank you—for leaving me. Sometimes, the most profound growth stems from the deepest wounds. At first, your departure felt like a storm—sudden, destructive, and chaotic. But now, with clarity that only time can provide, I see it for what it truly was: a necessary turning point. So, this is my heartfelt thank-you for leaving me. When you left, you unknowingly forced me to confront the parts of myself I had long ignored. I had relied on you—your presence, validation, and company—as a crutch. When that crutch disappeared, I had no choice but to stand on...

@Smiling: The Magic, The Mystery

@Smiling: The Magic, The Mystery Smiling is one of the simplest and most powerful actions we can take, yet it holds a surprising amount of magic and mystery. A genuine smile is more than just a facial expression—it’s a universal language that transcends culture, age, and even species. It’s a subtle gesture with profound effects on our emotions, relationships, and well-being. 📌The Science Behind a Smile A smile does more than communicate friendliness; it triggers a biological response. When you smile, your brain releases endorphins, dopamine, and serotonin—the chemicals responsible for happiness and relaxation. Research shows that even a forced smile can lift your mood, as the act of smiling itself sends signals to your brain that you’re happy, creating a positive feedback loop. This natural reaction means that smiling doesn’t just reflect how we feel; it can actually create positive feelings. This concept, often called the “facial feedback hypothesis,” suggests that our expressions ca...
