On Strength And Patience (This Is Personal) – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 21-May-202121-May-2021

It is easy to acknowledge and respect a man of strength while overlooking and underrating a man of patience.
In that same breath, why is strength regarded as a masculine quality and patience as a feminine quality?

Nigerian Senators And Their Tearful Protest – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 21-May-202121-May-2021

If you believe there is something wrong with Nigeria, now is the time to act. Don’t speak up and cry, then go back to collect your salaries and allowances.
There is always the option of keeping quiet and allowing your name to forever rest in infamy. But at least, deny your children the disgrace of seeing you cry like a little bitch.

New Pictures, Savings, Or Current? – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 21-May-202121-May-2021

Sometimes, just like and share a picture and move on. Other times, drop a compliment, the person might really need it.
Just don’t let your compliment always be the precursor to them asking or being asked, “savings or current”.

The Multistorey Debacle – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 20-May-202120-May-2021

Have you ever been in a multistorey building and look down at the “peasants” beneath you? Doesn’t it feel cool to be able to see people from a vantage position, and they have no idea you are up there?
Add to that the cool breeze enjoyed by residents of multistorey buildings.

Confident Incompetence – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 20-May-202120-May-2021

One of the most baffling sights I am always bewildered to witness is that of someone operating with a swagger that can best be described as confident incompetence.
I can’t help laughing when their confident incompetence results in disgraceful failure.

On Strength And Patience – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 20-May-202120-May-2021

In our daily travels and travails (depending on which applies to you), we need a lot of strength and patience.
Success in any endeavor would be impossible to attain without strength and patience.

China’s Space Junk – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 20-May-202120-May-2021

Looking back at China’s space junk from 2007 and now, 2021, should space endeavors be a source of worry? Just like with industrialization and global warming, countries that didn’t participate or benefit could be the worst-hit victims.

JOSH JOURNAL ML SPECIAL THE BOOK CLUB

My Multiple Tabs Problem – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 19-May-202119-May-2021

Honestly, if I had an intern, I would have asked them to go through the tabs and summarize them for me. Unfortunately I didn’t
If I could afford it, I would have hired a temp to do it for me. Again, I can’t afford to.

Searching For Something × TREASURED JOURNAL

by Comfort Mordi 19-May-202120-May-2021

Many people have mastered the act of suffering and smiling. They are good at displaying affection and happiness in public, but behind closed doors, they are empty and sad.

JOSH JOURNAL ML SPECIAL THE BOOK CLUB

It Looks Like I Don’t Know How To Do Meetings – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 18-May-202118-May-2021

Everything that has just been said, you will see someone else confidently stand up as if to proffer a solution.
Instead, they will go on to restate everything the last speaker just said. Except in a more fanciful rendition

JOSH JOURNAL ML SPECIAL THE BOOK CLUB

Sometimes You’re Just A Ben Chilwell – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 18-May-202118-May-2021

From shooting themselves in the foot to sticking their foot in their mouth, people end up doing more damage to themselves than their targets.
It is always better to pull a Kante and end things amicably. You ex-friend, boss, or lover should always be left with a smile whenever they see or remember you.

Who Is Scared Of Seniorman Kelz? – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 18-May-202118-May-2021

If only someone from the MCR had taken made the effort to read what was written on Iheanacho’s flag.
“Seniorman Kelz”. What is less political than that? I had to get on Twitter to figure out exactly what was written on the flag.

Every Club Needs An Alisson Becker

by IJOSWIL 17-May-202119-May-2021

Turns out you can get that legendary status as a goalkeeper by not only stopping goals and even penalty kicks. You can provide assists and score yours too. Not just free-kicks and penalties. Last-minute headers too.

JOSH JOURNAL ML SPECIAL THE BOOK CLUB

Don’t Take That Break – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 17-May-202117-May-2021

A major key to maintaining strength, morale, and maximizing productivity is knowing when to take a break. Such period is used to rest, recover, research where necessary, and regain strength and motivation for the task ahead.

JOSH JOURNAL ML SPECIAL THE BOOK CLUB

The Etymology And Greek Meaning Of… – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 17-May-202117-May-2021

Do you have an idea how frustrating it is to listen to a speaker, and half their speech is telling you about the true meaning of a word?
They’ll pick a big word and break it into multiple parts, then coin another meaning to it and expect you to find that to be deep.

FEATURED ML SPECIAL TREASURED JOURNAL

Just Change The Needle × TREASURED JOURNAL

by Comfort Mordi 12-May-202112-May-2021

How about those who feel they’ve invested so much in a particular project and they just weary themselves out daily even when they ain’t seeing results. Things don’t work that way. Sometimes you have to lose to gain and move forward just like I changed the needle.

The Worst Speaker Ever – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 09-May-202109-May-2021

No one asked you to be a role model or influencer, but that comes with the territory of being a public speaker and influencer. Stop asking people to ignore your personal life but take your words seriously.

Public Holidays As An Economic Indicator – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 09-May-202109-May-2021

There are very few things the lovely people of Lagos love more than public holidays.
The manic tempo of Lagos is one that can only be survived by intravenous doses of public holidays.

The Book Of Lamentations – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 02-May-202115-May-2021

If volunteers are asked to pick the books they’ll be interested in writing, the book of Lamentations will have the most volunteers.
As a matter of fact, if the new books don’t have to maintain the size of the old, the book of Lamentations will take up ninety percent of the new Bible. There is just too much lamenting to do.

SINCERELY YOURS WEEKLY SPECIAL

You Are Fallible (Sincerely Yours)

by IJOSWIL 02-May-202102-May-2021

Those who profess to be infallible are the ones you should fear the most. In a bid to prove how right they are, they will go to any length. They don’t care whose ox is gored.
You are not one of such. Welcome criticism and correction alike.

The Breakfast In Bed Situationship – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 01-May-202101-May-2021

Please, if you know breakfast in bed is something you look forward to, ask your husband if he can cook before you marry him.
Maybe you should even taste his food. It’s not only guys that need to know about your kitchen skills.

DEPUTY GIRLFRIEND ML SPECIAL THE BOOK CLUB TRUE LIE STORY

The Couple That Gossip Together… (Deputy Girlfriend)

by IJOSWIL 01-May-202101-May-2021

She went on to regale me with the latest news on the blogs. I think all of our gossip sessions can be summarised thus, “Nigerians are crazy.”
And apparently, the couple that gossips together stays together.

Acknowledgment And Receipt – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 30-Apr-202130-Apr-2021

It is one of such instances that tempted me to send an acknowledgment of his acknowledgment.
The only reason I stopped was that I knew if I started it and he indulged me by replying, then I wasn’t going to stop.

ML SPECIAL THE BOOK CLUB TO THE ALTAR TRUE LIE STORY

Blind Scan VS Auto Scan #ToTheAltar

by IJOSWIL 30-Apr-202129-May-2021

How long do I have to wait before I come up in someone’s scan? Not just someone, but in the scan of a guy that is my kind of guy.
I never thought of this before, am I my spec’s spec?

Animal In Human Skin – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 29-Apr-202129-Apr-2021

Spot the animal in human skin around you based on their response to this stomach-churning incident. Don’t stop at blocking and reporting them on Twitter and Instagram. Keep your children away from them.

IDIOMS AND PROVERBS WEEKLY SPECIAL

Real Gs Move In Silence (IDIOMS AND PROVERBS)

by IJOSWIL 29-Apr-202129-Apr-2021

I remember the first time I saw the word “lasagna”. You can be certain that I pronounced it weird. My pronunciation was so off, that when I first heard it pronounced right, I had no idea we were both referring to the same thing.
How can you pronounce lasagna as “lasanya”?

A Little Imbalance × TREASURED JOURNAL

by Comfort Mordi 28-Apr-202128-Apr-2021

Most times we feel it’s the big things that really destroy. Actually, it is the small things that the devil uses. He makes you comfortable with that little imbalance, making you believe no one would notice the fault in how you look.

On Death And Progress – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 28-Apr-202115-May-2021

Apparently, there is one circle where death isn’t as frowned upon. When I found this out, I was shocked.
That was until I heard their argument. Now I’m conflicted. On the one hand, they are right. On the other hand, this is someone dying.

RHETORICS WEEKLY SPECIAL

Are Aliens Racist? – RHETORICS

by IJOSWIL 28-Apr-202128-Apr-2021

More disturbing than blacks not being picked up by the aliens, is the fact that no Nigerian has recorded any of such encounters so far.
The Nigerian population in the USA is enough to have witnessed a noticeable amount of extraterrestrial activities. How come none is reported?

“This Cannot Be Happening To Me” – Josh Journal

by IJOSWIL 27-Apr-202128-Apr-2021

There are principles that guarantee outcomes, then there is also the law of randomness.
Not every situation has a reason, a purpose, or an origin. Some just happened for happening sake.
