I will rather pursue and uphold, with excellence, that which is right and honourable, than to find solace in the chambers of comfort and mediocrity. #life_philosophy

#ReflectionDiaries (Maximising Destiny)

There are five questions you every individual must answer regarding their destiny. They include the questions of identity, source/connection, purpose, potentials/capabilities, and eternal destiny.

#ReflectionDiaries (Love)

#Love is primarily demonstrated through four principal pillars: passion; commitment; pleasure; and, sacrifice. These four elements form the basis for walking in love, even beyond the realms of lip service.

As such, it is important for individuals to adapt and engage in a #stress-relief cycle, per time:
- identify stressors;
- minimise exposure to identified stressors;
- replace stressors with adaptive coping mechanisms;
- repeat cycle.

#ReflectionDiaries(Routines)

The difference between where you find yourself and where you desire to be, is defined by the power of #consistency. Frankly, it transcends and vetos both hard work and excellence.
Be diligent to worthwhile #routines.

However, these #contemplations are actually subtle outcries of internal pressures and frustrations seeking for #help, as opposed to the thought that a suicidal person has already made up their minds.

#ReflectionDiaries

Suicide deaths among children and young people are usually preceded by #suicidal contemplations, including suicidal thoughts, threats, attempts and gestures.
It is a #myth to think that a suicidal person will commit suicide, if (s)he talks about it.

As a means of holistic approach to domestic abuse response, services should seek to protect children (including the unborn), empower victims to protect themselves and their children, and hold abusive partners accountable and provide change opportunities.
#NSPCC

[MC Akaninwor @OfficialMC_A]

More so, as a domestic abuse approach, consider the perspectives of the child, victim and perpetrator, as well as the stepping down arrangements for application re child protection threshold.

In every domestic abuse situation, practitioners and agencies involved should take due diligence to ensure they identify safeguarding indicators, utilise safeguarding systems to support multi-agency safeguarding.

#ReflectionDiaries

The human mind is not like computers, where softwares are either installed or uninstalled. It is driven by the forces of #nature and #nurture. As such, it is only sacrosanct to be wary of exposures to potential risk or protective factors.

#ReflectionDiaries

Excusing or rationalising one’s faults is tantamount to #cowardice; Master the art of taking #responsibility.
In the final analysis, it’s not about who was wrong, but the individual who came through it, the better person.

In our engagements with other individuals, especially the #vulnerable, it’s important we understand that #compliance doesn’t translate into #consent, and #motives outweigh both strategies and actions.

One word used literally could mean a ‘bad’ thing, at the same time, the same word used metaphorically, within a different context, could become a representation of something ‘good’. As such, words are at the ‘mercy’ of the #communicator. Selah!

[MC Akaninwor @OfficialMC_A]

It transcends the act of mindfulness to the point of ‘reasonable #thoughtfulness’ - every mental process that has its basis on taking actionable #responsibility for both actions and inactions, as a response to an ‘acquired #realisation’.
