"According to Psychologists, there are four types of Intelligence:

1) Intelligence Quotient (IQ)
2) Emotional Quotient (EQ)
3) Social Quotient (SQ)
4) Adversity Quotient (AQ)

1. Intelligence Quotient (IQ): this is the measure of your level of comprehension. You need IQ to solve maths, memorize things, and recall lessons.

2. Emotional Quotient (EQ): this is the measure of your ability to maintain peace with others, keep to time, be responsible, be honest, respect boundaries, be humble, genuine and considerate.

3. Social Quotient (SQ): this is the measure of your ability to build a network of friends and maintain it over a long period of time.

People that have higher EQ and SQ tend to go further in life than those with a high IQ but low EQ and SQ. Most schools capitalize on improving IQ levels while EQ and SQ are played down.

A man of high IQ can end up being employed by a man of high EQ and SQ even though he has an average IQ.

Your EQ represents your Character, while your SQ represents your Charisma. Give in to habits that will improve these three Qs, especially your EQ and SQ.

Now there is a 4th one, a new paradigm:

4. The Adversity Quotient (AQ): The measure of your ability to go through a rough patch in life, and come out of it without losing your mind.

When faced with troubles, AQ determines who will give up, who will abandon their family, and who will consider suicide.

Parents please expose your children to other areas of life than just Academics. They should adore manual labour (never use work as a form of punishment), Sports and Arts.

Develop their IQ, as well as their EQ, SQ and AQ. They should become multifaceted human beings able to do things independently of their parents.

Finally, do not prepare the road for your children. Prepare your children for the road."

“5 THINGS NO ONE TALKS ABOUT BEFORE MARRIAGE"

Sometime ago, I told a married friend of mine I was going to wash his car for free in exchange for some delicious marriage advice that they hardly discuss in Church.

I mean like practical everyday things my partner and I should know before we walk down the altar, not the regular 'submit to your husband, love your wife like you love yourself, only missionary style is godly, respect your in-laws, and all other things they teach us on the surface that we have heard and tired.

I washed his car cheerfully after he shared these 5 deep facts with me, I believe it will bless you too...

05- EMOTIONAL TEMPERAMENTS: Do not wait until marriage to find out how deeply emotional your partner can be, and to what limits.

What are his breaking points? How does she deal with a fight? How do we apologize after a disagreement? Is keeping mute or ignoring your calls her own idea of avoiding a fight? Does he love to be left alone after an argument as a way of avoiding a confrontation? It is so important that you talk about these things when the 'I love you' is still fresh, to help you have a good knowledge of your partner's reactions when they come.

04- HOLIDAYS AND TRADITIONS: Wow! Holidays can be so wonderful together, but where do we spend most of our holidays? And with whose parents do we spend it with, mine or yours? Is it okay for my family and relatives to come around for a holiday? Whose family traditions do we pass on to our children?

You might think 'naaa, this isn't important' , but wait until marriage when one mother in-law decides it's her right to be visiting the family every weekend while the other mother in-law is not happy she only gets to see her grandchildren once every Christmas.

03- SPIRITUAL TEMPERAMENTS: it is not enough to know that your partner is a Christian, God-fearing, and all other pretty Christian stories we make up to qualify a spouse!

How is his relationship with God? How does she reflect her excitement about God with other people around her? Does your partner charge you to get intimate with God? Does he approve of morning devotions? Does he approve of raising an altar for God in the house? What are their beliefs about tithing and seeding? Where do they stand concerning faith principles like first fruits and charity? I hope you know it is possible to have a prayer strength of 6 hours and still not believe in seeding.

02- HOUSE HOLD DUTIES: this is one thing we never talk about. Women do all the chores right? But WRONG! Unless you are comfortable with playing the ‘complete house wife duty’, then you’ve got to talk about who does the what, at what times, and at what conditions? Whose turn to look after the baby, who drops them off at school and back, who takes the car to work, who pounds the fufu? Etc. Heheheeheh, I can hear some unromantic men saying “Godforbid I cannot pound any fufu after paying the bride price”. Lol

01- MONEY STUFF: some of us are more comfortable with our boyfriend taking us to exotic places to eat and drink lavishly, buy us expensive gift presents, and spend big on extravagant dates. But we forget to pay attention to his ability to manage his finances, spending habits, credit history, and bills. What will our budget look like? How should we save? How do we invest? How much does she earn? What is she bringing to the table?

00- SEX: hehehe, I would have loved to talked about this too, but the strong things he shared with me, hmmmm, if I share them here some people will start dreaming dreams and seeing visions in this cold weather. Soo bye bye!

There are a lot more cardinal points than the above listed five, things like love language, family orientation, business sense, adversity quotient, core values and principles e.t.c. but sadly, the majority focus more on physical appearance, pocket strength and sexual ability. We live in a society where men especially are weighed by their pocket strengths and gbola size. Frivolities have become priorities in these present days and it's so sad.
But God will Help us to choose right & love right.

If you see a future with that partner of yours, and you haven’t taken time to deal with these topics yet, please hurry and get on with it. Because this will become the big talking point a day after the WEDDING.

A TRUE FRIEND IS A FRIEND IN ADVERSITY!! BRAVO DAVIDO!!!

In the quest for success,
find peace with your failures.
Embrace your weaknesses.
Let rejection strengthen you.

Cherish the days when you feel inadequate, as they signal
your potential for growth. Appreciate the highs and lows.

Welcome the "no's and let
them guide you with passion.
For it is through these experiences that the summit of
Success is truly rewarding.

From the depths of adversity,
the heights of greatness are
most cherished.

Your Setback Is a Setup for a Comeback
What looks like failure is just a setup for your next breakthrough. Every great champion has faced adversity—your time to rise is coming!

The moment we believe that success is determined by an ingrained level of ability as opposed to resilience and hard work, we will be brittle in the face of adversity

Life can throw storms at us when we least expect them. The loss, the setbacks, the heartbreaks—they can feel unbearable. But here’s the truth: storms don’t last forever. They come to test your faith, refine your character, and prepare you for the blessings ahead.

Instead of focusing on the storm, focus on the One who can calm it. God’s strength is made perfect in your weakness. He uses every challenge to build resilience, every pain to birth purpose, and every obstacle to create opportunities.

You may not see it now, but one day, you’ll look back and thank God for the very things you thought would break you. Keep walking in faith; the rainbow comes after the rain.

Loyalty is a non-negotiable value that holds significant importance in various aspects of life, including personal relationships, professional environments, and ethical decision-making. At its core, loyalty encompasses unwavering commitment, trust, and steadfast support towards individuals, organizations, or causes. This steadfast dedication forms the bedrock of trust and reliability, fostering a sense of security and dependability in both personal and professional settings.

In personal relationships, loyalty forms the foundation of trust and mutual respect. It involves standing by loved ones through thick and thin, supporting them during challenging times, and upholding their best interests. Loyalty in friendships and romantic relationships translates to unwavering support, confidentiality, and a sense of unity and solidarity. This steadfast dedication reinforces the emotional bond between individuals, creating a sense of security and dependability within the relationship.

In the professional sphere, loyalty is crucial for fostering a positive and productive work environment. Employees who demonstrate loyalty towards their organization exhibit a strong commitment to its mission, values, and goals. This commitment often translates into increased productivity, higher job satisfaction, and a more cohesive team dynamic. Furthermore, loyal employees are more likely to uphold the organization's reputation, maintain confidentiality, and act in the best interest of the company, thereby contributing to its long-term success.

From an ethical standpoint, the non-negotiable nature of loyalty is evident in the adherence to moral principles and obligations. Loyalty encourages individuals to act with integrity, honesty, and consistency, even in the face of adversity or conflicting interests. This unwavering commitment to ethical behavior serves as a guiding principle in decision-making, ensuring that individuals remain true to their values and uphold their responsibilities to others.

In conclusion, the principle that "loyalty is not negotiable" underscores its fundamental role in personal relationships, professional conduct, and ethical integrity. By embodying loyalty, individuals and organizations foster trust, reliability, and a sense of unity, ultimately contributing to the strength and resilience of their interpersonal connections and professional endeavors.
