Seeing places in a mess irritates every nerve in me.I find myself in wonder of how people in their right sense allow themselves to live in messy places when they actually can do something about it. But the irony is no matter how hard I try, spaces are prone to be messy except with constant care. As a passionate space organizer therefore, I put efforts to turn around messy places.

When Messy

When Organized


My gosh, I hate seeing places in a mess right from childhood. If I can remember well, my grandma was a goddess when it comes to organizing places and I think I picked it up as a hobby, little did I know it was already in me like some lineage thing. 
The importance of keeping places tidy and organized can not be overstated. I mean, in an orderly environment things barely get missing and even when they do they are easily found. If your office is well organized, you know exactly where everything is and where everything should be, if something is missing you know where to look for it, that is a huge importance of keeping places organized. 
A disorganized kitchen would cause delays in cooking because the chef in chief would have to be constantly looking for either a knife, a chopping board or the other pot because there is no order in the kitchen. This will go a long way to alter the otherwise delicious food.
When messy

When Organized

I am a very stuck-up person, I tend to get very disturbed about my environment and the people around. In an environment where everything is a mess and things are littered anyhow injuries and sickness may occur more often than they would in an organized environment. Ask me how, OK your room has pin on the floor, at the other side of your bed is a pin which you used the other night, on your mirror stand is your powder which poured from last morning makeup, tell me what you are breading? Of course you are breading an unsafe environment. 

Organizing spaces is tiring, it takes passion, persistence and professionalism to put spaces in order and make them look jaw dropping. Doing something you love is very important since everything gets boring along the way but once there is love attached to it, the love keeps the persistence coming. This doesn't just apply to space organization, I believe it applies in every aspect of life. For example, this morning, I woke up and the whole house was in a disorder, or at least so it looked to me, and I felt the need to arrange everything to my taste which I did, although I am sure I would wake up tomorrow to the same messy place, I still feel I need to do it. This is as a result of the love I have for organizing spaces. If I didn't love it and I was probably forcing it in me I might just give up because it is a never ending journey.

An organized place gives me inner peace of mind, high spirit, makes me happy, safe and fulfilled. This doesn't just apply to me, it applies to you, because when the place is in order, everyone tends to enjoy hanging around.

GETTING CAUGHT IN THE ACT

Image
I can remember catching my brother Haruna watching pornographic clips although not red handed but I have seen it through his browser and download history. And I never made any move to stop him, not because I do watch porn as well but because I see it as a normal thing for a guy of his age. I mean, what do you expect of him? to not know that sex does happen?  It is the 21st century and everyone (or almost everyone) has access to the internet, unrestricted internet to be precise. So I let it slide, of course we don't discuss sex but I don't care what he does with his internet, I will only care if I bought the internet and it is being wasted. By the way he will be 21 by December so I think it is totally okay. Now I know there are those who will be like but it is not good religiously, forgetting that everything is not good as long as religion is concerned. I mean, whats good? NOTHING? Okay so today, my little brother Abbas, was caught red handed by me about to do same and...

THE FUTURE BELONGS TO YOU

The future belongs to those who think. Its never too late to start thinking for yourself. You might think your time is over, but trust me it is not. The things we regret the most are the things we didn't do not the things we did. So its better to start doing more.  The world is full of Nay Sayers, people who will tell you you cant do this and that, always bring up a reason why you cant achieve your dreams. But you can do something, you can stop listening to them and if that is so hard to do, you can ignore them when they talk.  I believe there is nothing more important that believing in your self, figuring out what is it you want and planning vividly on how to achieve it. There is actually nothing more important. Plan your way to success, its not easy but with dedication and passion for what you do, you will succeed in the end. Success is sure for anyone who does what they love and dedicate themselves to it. As Henry Ford said, "a business dedicated to service will...

ABOUT LAST NIGHT

Image
Last night we had a long chat with Sman AKA Suleiman Aliyu Yaro. I love discussing with people after work. I guess maybe it has do with my workaholic attitude and my anti-social behavior. That sounds to me like an irony. I mean, an anti-social someone loving to talk to people only after work. Whats that? Hypocrisy? lol. We discussed various topics but the one we discussed at length was BOY-GIRL-RELATIONSHIP. Okay, It started when I showed him a leaked video of a Hausa girl showing off her naked boobs on a camera. He claimed to have known the girl or that she seemed familiar. Although he pleaded that I send the clip to his whatsapp I refused, then all of a sudden I remembered getting into trouble with clips like that. That took us to our lengthy gist about our relationships. I told him from A to Z the girls that got into my life. He was laughing and enjoying every bit of the story. He even suggested I write a book about it. I don't know if I can do that. I mean, I am n...
