The human brain is the most powerful single item in creation (or evolution) that has the highest processing power at which it produces results. It has capabilities the smartest of all devices can only dream of. It can process millions of data within a short period of time. It has been proven from researches that humans end up using only 4% of their brain in their entire lifespan with the 96% lying dormant. As powerful as the human brain is, there are little things that temper with It's functions. Things such as stress, depression and addictions are the brain's worst nightmare. The brain is like a big balloon and addiction is a tiny needle. One of the leading addictions in the world after drugs is Pornography. Porn addiction has been a major challenge and concern ever since the internet became available and accessible to everyone. The porn business is growing daily with loads and lots of stars arising from it. Tonnes of clips are produced per minute. These porn videos a...

Paul replied, "Short time or long — I pray God that not only you but all who are listening to me today may become what I am, except for these chains." (Acts 26:29 NIV). Bearing the mark of Christ goes beyond being called a “Christian”, obeying certain codes and written laws, participating in ordinances and belonging to a body of believers. The mark of Christ is a seal made by the blood of the perfect Passover lamb upon the forehead of all who believe and are called according to the wonderful purpose of Christ (Rev 14:1-2) 1.    Self-denial  (Phi 3:7-8)        You will have to come to a point where you take a decision to either live for or against Christ. It is either you are here or there and you can never be in between.  2.       2.  Have an Encounter (Exo 3:1-6)         You can only come to know who you belong to by having an encounter with the person. Before you can bear the mark o...

It is quite funny to realise that  90% of people who go into dating don’t even know why they are into it. A  lot of people cannot give a justifiable reason why they started dating or thought of dating in the first place. Dating is the activity of going out regularly with somebody as a social or romantic partner. Dating is supposed to be the first step in social relationship and the other steps include courtship, engagement and marriage. But unlike we have on paper, dating is now engaged in for several reasons. Here is a list of the most common reasons people give for dating. 1.     1.    It is fun I believe maybe they derive fun in inflicting emotional pains on their partners. It is a source of enjoyment and recreation to those who are engaged in it. It helps them to relax together and to also enjoy each other’s company. I think dating should be more than just deriving fun, it should contain series of events which prepares the participants f...

Whether by accident or design, you have one day come across a baby in your life. You must have observed how people want to carry them by all means. Most people tend to be attracted by the baby’s aura and this draws them closer. Babies are adorable, they are worth loving and above, they can also teach us some certain traits about life. Here are four rules of attraction as observed from babies. 1.        1.  Be yourself: Babies are so natural that they don’t even know what it means to fake their identity. They are always themselves and that attracts people to them. Babies don’t need to adapt to people’s thoughts or ideas, they display their real character at all times. This very trait makes people want to associate with them. Let people know you for who you truly are. 2.    2.    Smile: I have noticed that making a baby smile is regarded as a trophy or a reward for a job well done. Each time the baby smiles, s/he s...

Habits are characters and traits are acquired over time. They are either inherited from parents or learned over time. The human body is a little child which always strives to be attuned with the dictates of the body in order to keep it in shape. The body adapts to these habits and once it gets acquainted with them, it becomes almost impossible to break away from. There are habits we acquire that silently kill us. They also reduce the quality of the original life we are supposed to live here on earth. When these habits are not checked on time, they can lead us to an early grave. Death in the context of this article is not limited to the absence of breath but also the absence of vision and passion which are the necessary drives for a fulfilled life. Here are some of the habits that silently kill us without our knowledge. 1.       PRIDE What do you think you own that is worth being proud of? People who are fond of moving with a chip on their shoulde...

Our national dailies are inundated with unpalatable occurrences of rape and sexual assault inflicted upon man by man. For quite sometimes now, rape and sexual harassments have taken over the major scenes in our media houses. It is no longer news that our world is mad about sex. In order to satisfy man’s carnal desires, he has created sex dolls and devised means of enjoying sexual pleasures by any means possible. Rape is an act of forcing somebody into a sexual relationship without the person’s approval. It is also an act of deriving sexual pleasures against the person’s will. Based on this definition, both genders can be raped. It is should, however, be noted that the female gender is always at the receiving end when it comes to rape matters. The cause of rape in our society today has been attributed to the nudity in the dress sense of our ladies. It is unequivocally clear that our ladies dress to look or feel sexy but is that enough reason to be raped? I don’t think so. ...

An addiction is a great interest in a particular thing to which a lot of time and energy is devoted. It is an uncontrollable urge for something which could range from a substance to an activity. Usually, an addiction starts as a harmless exercise and as the body gets used to it, the urge becomes irresistible and uncontrollable. Take, for instance, those who spoke. It usually starts from smoking a single stick to smoking a whole carton. Addictions are on the increase and it has been observed quite a good number of people are under an addiction. Of this great number of people under addictions, only a few have been able to identify the dangers of addictions and to also fight it. The bulk of the addicts are still enjoying their short life in addictions. I know a lot of people will boldly beat their chest and say I don’t smoke or drink but it is shocking to know that people can be addicted to video games, computer, the internet, drugs, sex, phones, food, pornography and the list is ...

It is no longer a news that Google is the world's leading search engine. It came into the market on its knees and begging top brands to help it grow but was rejected because they never thought anything good could ever come out of search engines, not to talk of Google. Here are 3 Top tech companies that never saw anything good in Google. 1. Yahoo If there will be an award for the tech companies with a long history of regrets, Yahoo should definitely top the list. In 1998, Google’s Larry Page and Sergey Brin had approached Yahoo, with an opportunity to buy its PageRank system for as little as $1 million. The duo wanted to focus on their studies at Stanford, but Yahoo showed no interest as it wanted users to spend more time on its own platform.However, as time progressed the online world soon began to realize the importance of third-party online advertising revenue. Google built its own pay-per click service called AdWords back then, and is now the key reason for Google’s ...
