“Every day is a good day. There is something to learn, care and celebrate." - Amit Ray
Hello everyone, it's weekend once again, are I hope you all are ready for some fun engagement? I know you are just as much as I am and as it's our manner, today is another day when we don't have to follow all the rules so we don't miss the fun, hehe. So who is ready? I am 😁😎.
OBJECTIVE
As we all know, the Hive Naija Weekend Engagement is focused on promoting the togetherness of the Nigeria brethren together through engagement and it's also now concerned of the well being of each and everyone who is part of the engagement. This account was opened to make the engagement more personal and official you can find the INTRODUCTION POST to read more about the purpose and aim of this new account and also do well to follow the account so as to know when a post is made.
Last week, the topic was "WISDOM VS MONEY"
We had over 700+ comments last week, I want to appreciate you all for the consistency, quality engagement and your efforts, let's keep them coming ya all. Special thanks to everyone who makes this hang out possible.
A long time ago, I thought, I shared and I asked "Why don't we Chat on hive every Weekend?"
And you all said... YES
"Well, we won't be the first as there are some weekend engagement trends already on Hive! But this would be THE NIGERIAN VERSION!"
I will drop a topic every Friday (Today's topic is below), share your thoughts on the matter, reply to someone else opinion, and interrogate the opinion if you like. Keep the discussion on. If you don't have anything to say about the topic. Just reply to someone else's comment.
Do all these in the comment section, as that is where it all goes down.
There are no further rules, please banter as you like, speak any Nigerian language (Igbo, Yoruba, pidgin, Efik), anything, as long as someone else can understand.

PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT
For this weekend, we will be talking about personal development. As humans we know for some it has been so easy to achieve our goals because we have strategies in place that actually works for us while for others we most times don't even have any plans for our personal development and improvement. So below are the questions to ask for this weekend.
- Do you have anything you do to be the best version of yourself? If yes, please share with us so others can learn
<div class="phishy"Are you struggling with any addiction that you are thinking is almost impossible to let go of? If yes, tell us what it is and if you would want to let go of it when you see it is not helping your personal development
I can't wait to see all of your responses to this question and I do hope that we get many more people joining us this week to make the discussion more fun and enjoyable and entertaining for everyone.
Okay Let's Gist!!!!
Be as simple and sincere with the discussion, hehehe.
Don't you think we are forgetting somebody?... Well, I'm sure we are...
Oh yes before I forget, there are also prizes for those that did well to invite someone new to the party and also you that has done well to invite someone you are also not left behind because you didn't leave anyone behind. But wait... Not so fast, this time you have to be more intentional about your invite, yes that's right...you know what you benefit when you engage so why not let others know about it. In fact I will advise you to look beyond the prize and look more to doing something different even for your Naija brethren by showing them the way here.
Heheh. Thanks so much for this weeks edition. It’s always a pleasure to be here again. I missed out on last weeks edition but I am in for this week.
And yeah…
The best version of myself is working towards being CONTENTMENT.
I am not ready to give up and I am not the type that would rush beyond my time.
I like this, really.
Contentment is one virtue that is going into extinction in our generation.
Like, everyone is on the run to be greater than the other. It is more like we are in a competition.
That competition is what I will not put myself in. I can look forward to a better future but not competing with others.
Such competition results in rivalry which is not health for an advancement of life pursuits.
I so much agree with this
Thanks man.
The thing is, shine your shine, I shine my shine. Together we shine our shines🤣
Contentment is a good thing as long as you don't relax on a spot, you are contented with what you have at the moment but still strife to become a better person.
Wowww
Talk to me directly babe
Oil full ur head 🗣️
Haha, thank you sis😂😂
Uwc 🥰
😂 😂. Make i come use small cook spaghetti 🍝
Hahaha 😂😂
Relax
😂 😂. The oils is just going to waste oo. 😂
Use it and cook stew 😝🍲
Yeah. Getting out of ones comfort zone is what it takes. I really grabbed your message. Hehe. Oil full your head in Nkem language.
Wow... contentment is great virtue
Keep it up bro
Yes thanks so much
Guy this one na soft life .
Make no body just rush you,you deyy okay with wetin you get and you dey walk towards wetin you want get,no pressure!✌️
Nice one bruh
Sure😜😜😜. Soft life with my wife and family. No rushing my sister.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣I believe you scatter 😎
Haha. How you go believe me scatter? You wan scatter me??
🤣🤣 no oo..
I mean I believe you😄
How can I trust you? 🙃🙂
Sigh contentment
Nice
Contentment makes our development much easier to achieve, otherwise, we will be feeling bad we aren't achieving much and also wanna give up on the little improvement we've made cus of lack of contentment.
You are right about that. We should be careful about the kind of race we want to run
Yeah definitely
Sigh, most of the time it isn't actually what we can do but who we come in contact with to do what we can do to bring out the best version of us.
Meeting the right people
This is a key role in self-development, why?
It's one thing to have goals and plans it's another thing to execute them rightly with or without help but if there's no way you'll need help. But aside from this you also need the right people who wouldn't distract you but instead encourage and help you get that development you seek.
So if you have all of it figured out and you aren't with the right circle it will definitely go down except you leave, then things will surely be different.
Thanks for reading. ❤️

The question about the addiction woulda been ideal but would also be too personal so.
To be the best version of myself, this is a fairly easy question. Do what you love, simple. Now the not so simple part is finding what you really love. You can say you love money, you love video games, you love your job, bla bla bla, but sometimes it can take a lifetime for one to figure what they are really into, so each day should be a day of soul searching for that thing that you enter a complete state of flow whenever you're doing it. I started writing a few months ago and it was one of the best decisions I made. Writing is therapeutic. It is a strong form of meditating and I can tell you for sure that mediating is powerful. Meditating is truly immersing yourself in whatever activity you're doing and not thinking about other random stuff. So to truly be the best version of you, continue to do what you love and if you haven't seen it, keep looking
Love and light ❤️
Hmm, very insightful, continue doing what you love and if you haven't found it search on!
Yes sis.
Thank you ☺️
A day of soul searching
Hmmmm, this word caught my attention full time....
Yea .. doing what I love is a great way to be the best version of myself... and working towards achieving the best of what I love
Spot on. We all wish to be the best version of ourselves but we can only keep working towards it 🙏🏾
Exactly Steve 👏
Doing what I love the most is indeed great way to better my self.
Nice one😊
Thank you 😄
I pray we all figure out our true calling ☺️
Right🤗🤗
Doing what you love and love what you do. Nice contribution
Thank you 🙂
Nice
🤝🏿
It's been a while @sam.hangout, I'm glad I'm able to participate this weekend, where is everybody though?
You never disappoint with the questions, as they are always relatable.
To become a better version of myself, I've learnt to take life easy, enjoy every little moment life offers, detox myself of any bad feeling or energy no matter what it may be, that way I allow positive energy and opportunities flow in easily.
I'm also open to widening my knowledge on various fields, as the saying goes, learning never stops.
I'm inviting @dikaan my AKS brother and @stellageorge, two wonderful and intriguing writers, to a part of this interesting hangout.
My dear...these are important steps to personal development. Learning never ends....we gat to be open for learning even to our juniors
Self detox is cool as well 👍🤗
Yes mama, even from Juniors, as I got to know about hive from my younger ones 🙂
Letting go of bad energy is everything for me.
Enjoyment is cool too.
Nice one there! 😊
Thank you @redna you get the point🙂
🤗🤗
Bad energy stay far away.
That's the secret to a peaceful life.
Yes it is
Hello folks..
How una dey today? Hope una gallant as I am ... alright, it's another beautiful weekend engagement and I am not seeing many people on today's party 🎉🎉, kilode? Una still on the road? Chicken 🐔 and drinks go soon finish oo 😂😂
Okay let's check out the question..
As for me, what I do is that: I try not to dwell in my past failure but rather find ways not to fail again on the same thing....I try to create my happiness even when things seems unpleasant. I forgive easily inorder to enjoy my peace of mind which is a luxury to me thereby making me to remain focused without interferences.
I try to work on my weakness and develop my strength . I don't fail to create my daily goals even when I set monthly and yearly goals. I avoid to place high expectations on people inorder not to receive a dissapoinment that would leave me devastated. Finally, learning never ends of course....I humble myself in asking questions steady and open my mind for more knowledge ❤️
@princessbusayo, @dimmablogs I missed you oo... @adaezeinchrist, @hopestylist , @quduus1, where all of una dey nah
@sam.hangout na my entry be this 😉
Working on strength and letting go of anger from offense is top premium.. That's really a unique version of oneself .
Setting daily goals and achieving them is power..
Thank you for sharing.😊
Yes my darling 🥰
Thanks 👍
🤗❤️
Yes my dear nice talk by not expecting much from people, because human being can serve you breakfast even for night

Ohhh Yaa hawayou all doing my people. This weekend be as e get.but regardless it's still my favourite of all time..
💃
To the question
So I have this bad habit of
snubbing
especially with calls. I have this fright for call or will I say I have call anxiety. I'll give a person my phone number and when the person calls the next moment am already scared and tired from not knowing what to say and not wanting to stay long on a conversation.(don't get me wrong,I can keep conversation regardless) So if the person like, he should give me a million call I'll refuse to pick even when I don't even know what the intentions are!!
Sometimes my mum will be like "pick call na,you no know wetin the person want tell you"lol.
This isn't helping me at all, on several occasions I've lost money,plus valuable information because of snubbing a call.
I'm really trying to change this as it's not adding to my improvement but it's really not been easy..
But I'll keep trying regardless 😊
Kai! I missed. I hope it will come again this week?
