What I love about 2Baba (2Face)


 

 

On my way to work this morning, 2face's songs played on my car CD, "what a guy !" are the thoughts that readily comes to mind.

I  love the track  with 9ice (Street Credibility) and really love a recent one called " Dance in the Rain" .
In recent times Tuface had evolved into a lot of lyrics around positive vibrations, i just thought that 2Baba was high on "igbo" but listening to Dance in the rain again I realised he was preaching a sermon.

He had finally got the secret formula ,  he needed to relax and enjoy the air. Live life and appreciate it, bask in the sunlight, enjoy the ride, take some time to smell the flowers, it is your life so live it.

I sincerely believe that as average Nigerians we are too hard on ourselves, 2face had fallen a number of times, lots of scandals, numerous kids from different women, but he pressed pause, rewind , then play. I appreciate how he was strong enough to make decisions that was required at the time. We all know about 2face because he is famous, we all have situations we need to review,  the indicators might be blinking red, do not be too frightened to rewind .

I was in a meeting today, and while daydreaming, I remember a quote " people see you as you see yourself" we need to learn to forgive ourselves, and live our own life.

Tuface has won so many awards, I have lost count,  this inspires me that creativity gets it rewards no matter how many times you fall down.

Love yourself.

Thank you 2Baba for loving yourself to take care of yourself.
Life is worth living happily.

love story to Inikpi

Yesterday, we went to an Ibadan version of a French Paris cafe,  outdoors, trees,  young students making noise,  we were eating chips and barbecued chicken wings, Ali and I were drinking beer, you were sipping and said to me "mum,  tell me more about my birth story" I smiled at you, lifted my head up from my candy crush saga game, Ali smiled, he looked at me and we smiled at each other,  in that look a million words had been said between us. You are a prize my darling Inikpi Araoluwa. You are the first thing I ever fought for.  (I guess you would be šŸ˜•   puzzled)  Inikpi, you were so quiet in my tummy, I was afraid you will be stillborn.  I stressed your dad so frequently to the emergency ward,  the poor chap had turned into a staff member at the general hospital.  You were quiet for another 7.5 years. Clingy, unsure, cautious, you walked late, you spoke late,  I had to leave you with strangers so I could go to work,  your...

How not to kill a successful Team.

On my way to Work one morning, listening to an audio book, a statement pops at me "Success is achieving Set goals" Pondering on this, I realise teams are destroyed because we do not know how to manage success of teams when we achieve set goals.   A team is considered successful when set targets are met. A team would have gone through this cycle to become a performing team. Going back to the story, you know I am a salesperson, so I am constantly ploughing resources into Self-Motivation, being a Team Lead can be draining as you have to constantly motivate your team. I had learnt from a previous job that you can lead effectively by having; Experiential Knowledge: In my opinion, I believe the best leaders are created from the team, Management has expectations, the Team also has expectations, the ability of a person to balance the expectations of both parties increases productivity. A great example is recently my sales team expanded. From my experience I have learnt tha...

(Image from www.weshare.com )   No one can force you to do a job you do not want to do. Sales Jobs can seem to be weary behind closed doors, you get to a point and say to yourself "is this really worth the stress?" Sales jobs have their down days where you feel that you just cannot go on. From experience it is easier to stay Self Motivated, than expecting to Management to keep you motivated, because we all have a free will, and we rebel when being coerced into submission. Simple Crazy tips to keep you Self Motivated: As at that Moment, you are the person for the Job: Feel good with yourself It is just a Job; This job does not define whom you are, it is just a process to achieve your dreams.
