A Truth About Life: To Give Is To Live.

Image
- Giving is the key to getting and the secret of the Law of Abundance.                                                         - Uvelopin Hello again, and welcome to Uvelopin (which is you developing). As a truth about life, today's topic is "to give is to live". And this topic will be delivered with life's experiences. 1) We'll start with "Imoh" (African word for Wealth). Some years ago, Imoh worked in an accounts office and made a modest monthly income. Imoh had this cousin, Ayaka (African word for Sibling), who also had a paying job, but insisted on requesting that Imoh buy him recharge cards almost every time he ran out of airtime on his phone. Imoh considered Ayaka a nuisance for his regular requests for airtime, and one day, when Ayaka called for a recharge card, Imoh lashed out at him, telling him that they were both paid workers and h...

How To Achieve Personal Development: Associate Yourself With What You Want To Be.

Image
Hello again, and welcome to Uvelopin (which is you developing). Today, we are going to be talking about our associations and how they affect our personal development. Many times, we are oblivious of how our associations with our environment (people, the things we see and listen to, and the overall energy we emerse ourselves in each day). Our associations matter a lot because, what we listen to eventually becomes what we think about, and what we think about eventually becomes what we believe, and what we believe eventually becomes what we say or do. Do you see the chain of events? It's the chain linking what we see or hear to what we say or do. OUR DIFFERENT COMPONENTS There is some ignorance as to the components that make us up. (Permit me to get a bit esoteric now, but I'll break things down as best I know how). You may be wondering what I mean by "components". I'm not talking about the different body systems (digestive, nervous, circulatory, etc), neither a...

How To Achieve Personal Development: Spiritual Development.

Image
Hello, and welcome to Uvelopin (which is you developing). The focus for today is spiritual development as a way of achieving personal development. Some may consider spiritual development somewhat controversial, vague, vast, or unnecessary, but I will say it is the simplest and most important, and all encompassing way to achieve personal development. I say so because, you see with just discipline and attention, you can attain spiritual development. I use the word "just", and you may soon confess my expression of attainment of spiritual development to be an understatement, but... once you let go of your own vices, you become more flexible and easily accept the simplicity of, and dance to the rhythm of "discipline and attention". Once you get a hang of this concept in your spiritual processes and exercises, you begin to achieve spiritual development, and make the attainment of personal development even more of a breeze. To properly disintegrate this topic for smo...

How To Achieve Personal Development: Have A Schedule.

Image
Hello, and welcome to the Uvelopin blog. The focus for today is how you can achieve personal development by having a schedule, or filling up your calendar. It is important to fill up your daily calendar, and here's why: having idle hours or days means leaving a hole for just about anything to fill up. And something most certainly will; it may even be something stupid, or unwanted, or undoing in your life. The simple saying, "an idle man is a devil's workshop", is more true than you may think. Recall those times or days you had nothing to do? How did it make you feel? Restless, anxious, bewildered...? Then, some stupid idea came to your head, and you decided it was better to execute that stupid idea than be idle. Not your fault, but your fault. Not your fault, because the mind is not wired by nature to be idle or stationary (as the body is). Think of it this way..., your mind is still active, and busy, and dynamic even when you are asleep, or your when body is in som...

How To Achieve Personal Development: Resource Management.

Image
Hello there, and welcome once again to Uvelopin. Today, we are going to be looking at Resource Management as one of the ways in which we can achieve personal development. In case you haven't noticed, the major resources in this world are time, space and energy. Some of you, right now, are disagreeing, saying that time and money are the major resources in this world; but, hold on, I'll explain. Time, space and energy are mainly the major "categories" of resources in our universe. Not that you don't have money as a major resource, but money is merely a representation of these major categories. I'll explain further. Psychiatrists, doctors, and virtually all professions charge for their time, in other words, money becomes a representative (and not just an exchange) for the time they spent. Parking lots/spaces charge for parking, this, money then becomes a representative for the space (or takes the place of the space rented out); and this concept goes same for ...

How To Achieve Person Development: Self Confidence.

Image
This is another series I have decided to work on; how to achieve personal development. There are actually several ways by which personal development can be attained, but there are some things you must understand. First, I may use the words "achieve" and "attain", but make no mistake... it is not a destination. It is a continuous process (see A Truth About Life: Life Has No Destinations. It Is An Eternal Journey ); an eternal process. Second, it is worth embarking on, regardless of the pain you feel you may encounter. Third, no one can do it for you; there is a reason it's called "personal" development. Today, we will be discussing one of the ways to "achieve" personal development. Self confidence. Self confidence is basically admitting, or knowing, or making yourself believe that something is attainable (that ANYTHING is attainable) if you reach or go for it. And don't get me wrong... reaching or going for something isn't just wi...

A Truth About Life: Life Has No Destinations. It Is An Eternal Journey.

Image
Hello again and welcome to Uvelopin (which is you developing). Today's agenda is to share another truth about life which I have found to be definite, and it is that life has no destinations, because it is an internal journey. I found this to be true through my personal experiences, that of others, and good old logic! By logic, I am referring to the law of diminishing returns and the nature of all growth curves. It's simple! Simply put the law of diminishing returns says that, on a fixed factor (a non-flexible factor, such as land), you can only increase a variable factor (a flexible factor, example labour) in order to achieve increasing productivity so much so that, you'll eventually get a peak of productivity, after which total productivity begins to decline, and marginal productivity (the extra productivity you achieved with each addition of the variable factor on the fixed factor) decreases so much so that it becomes negative. I could give a better explanation and dr...

A Truth About Life: Reincarnation Exists.

Image
Hello, friends, and welcome once more to Uvelopin. The topic for today is Reincarnation Exits, as a truth about life. I know some of you reading right now don't believe in reincarnation, mainly because you can't appreciate the proofs around you, or just for the mere fact that you just don't remember your past lives. Well ... in this blog, we will fulfill the following objectives: 1. Explain the major reasons why people don't remember their past lives (unless by some intervention such as regression hypnotism or some spiritual means); 2. Look at some of the evidences of past lives, and share some real life experiences; 3. Talk about some of the purposes of reincarnation; 4. Provide some ways to see your own past lives (the safest ways). Now, let's get it on. So, why don't people remember their past lives? Well, it's simple; new physical body, new brain. The brain is the physical body's storehouse for memories, and the brain comes with the ...

A Truth About Life: Even the Devil Works for God.

Image
So here we are again. And welcome to Uvelopin. Today's truth about life is that even the devil works for God. Sounds insane to some of you, right? Well... From experience, I've come to see that's true. Not too sure how to go about this, but I'll give you some TRUE LIFE EXPERIENCES to give you a good perspective on this truth. I will not state exact relationships or names here except mine, for the purpose of protecting the identities of those whose experiences I'm going to be using on this blog. A little small talk before giving you the first experience.... Who do you think created the devil? I mean seriously.... And why do you think this negative force exists? Same reason why problems (or as I prefer to call them, "challenges") exist - to make yourself stronger; to force you into self development; to force you to grow spiritually; and to make life more interesting, actually (Lol!). Imagine a world without challenges. Can you? I can, and it's mind-...

A Truth About Life: Everything is Run by Exchange.

Image
Everything is run by exchange. You can't enjoy light until you suffer darkness, and to have the light, the darkness must leave, and if you want darkness (or when it comes time for darkness) the lights must leave. You can't get unless you give, and for you to get, something must be given. Do you see the exchange? In the case of self development, you realise that you must first drop old habits that weigh you down and bad attitudes (kind of how the bags are dropped from the passenger side of an air balloon so that it can take off from the ground. The sandbags are exchanged for elevation). Why do I believe this concept of exchange? Let's look at the law of conservation of energy (or matter) which states that matter (or energy) is neither created nor destroyed but transformed from one form to another. Do you see the concept of exchange? You see it in the water cycle; you get the rain when water evaporates from the land and seas, saturate the skies and clouds, and then recond...
