Welcome to Winning 11's Blog

Hello Lovelies, Here I am and today I am not here alone, I've got my dear sister, Olabisi Baruwa in whom I am well pleased. Today she lends us her voice on Domestic Violence (DV). I urge us to read and learn from her and as always DO NOT forget to share and comment.                                                     Let's establish what Domestic Violence is.  Domestic Violence (DV) is a violent or aggressive behaviour within the home typically involving the violent abuse of a spouse or partner. Domestic Violence (DV) is the willful intimidation, physical assault,battery, sexual assault and or other abusive behaviour as part of a systematic pattern of power and control perpetrated by one intimate partner against another. The frequency and severity of DV can vary dramatically. However, the one constant component of DV is one part...

' ........ Money answereth all things', a sage penman once wrote this in the most shoplifted book in the world 'The Bible', meanwhile  Depression  is simply defined as a continuous state of feeling sad.  As a young Nigerian, the word Suicide like the people who had committed it were foreign, I grew to know that Nigerians don't give up, we are the resilient ones, the Hustlers .  This is why recently when I hear about my kontri -people taking their own lives, I am taken aback! Don't get me wrong, I am aware and sure Nigerians have committed suicide even before i was born but trust me, even you as a cofam Naija person knows unsettling suicide is to us. Enough from me, let us read from Opumini Akinkungbe who is a renowed finance expert, as she pens down her expertise on Money matters as it concerns depression. Enjoy and do not forget to comment and share..... 7 April was World Health Day. This year, WHO announced its year long campaign; “Depression...

Hey Lovelies. I am learning, let us learn together from Dr. Travis Bradley who is an award-winning co-author of the #1 best selling book, Emotional intelligence 2.0, and the cofounder of TalentSmart. I pride myself to be a likeable person (you can agree or agree in the comments section) and as I am learning more about emotional intelligence, I realize that I kinda know these points, maybe you too but it won't hurt to read again. If you have never come across these habits, You're welcome. Here goes....... Too many people succumb to the mistaken belief that being likeable comes from natural, unteachable traits that belong only to a lucky few—the good looking, the fiercely social, and the incredibly talented. It’s easy to fall prey to this misconception. In reality, being likeable is under your control, and it’s a matter of emotional intelligence (EQ). We did some digging to uncover the key behaviors that emotionally intelligent people engage in that make them so like...

Hello Lovelies. I am learning, let us learn together. Read, comment and share. You are the sum of your habits.  When you allow bad habits to take over, they dramatically impede your path to success. The challenge is bad habits are insidious, creeping up on you slowly until you don’t even notice the damage they’re causing. “Chains of habit are too light to be felt until they are too heavy to be broken.” - Warren Buffett. The self-control required to develop good habits (and stop bad ones) also serves as the foundation for a strong work ethic and high productivity. Self-control is like a muscle—to build it up you need to exercise it. Practice flexing your self-control muscle by breaking the following bad habits: 1. Using your phone, tablet, or computer in bed.  This is a big one that most people don’t even realize harms their sleep and productivity. Short-wavelength blue light plays an important role in your mood, energy level, and sleep quality. In t...

Happy new year Lovelies. I have been reading, listening and learning a whole lot. I sincerely apologize for my long term break. But I am back and better! You might not read from me as often but you will definitely read and most importantly learn . My first post in 2017 is from Kellye Whitney, I read her on LinkedIn and I think bringing her intelligent mind on here will be fantastic. Enjoy and do not forget to comment and share............. Spoiler alert: If you haven’t seen Hidden Figures yet, you may want to wait to read this. Oh, heck. Read it anyway. It’s so good you may not mind a peek behind the curtain. I saw Hidden Figures last week. I expected it to be good, and it was. Taraji P. Henson (playing Katherine G. Johnson) and Octavia Spencer (Dorothy Vaughan) rarely disappoint, and singer Janelle Monae (Mary Jackson) came through strong. Go see it. It was sad, touching and emotional, and its happy ending was based in reality, as these three women actually ...
