Politics Is Meant To Be Boring – Josh Journal
The press needs to stop this need to make politics exciting.
To help people keep an eye on the government, politics needs to remain “boring”.
The politician might be an orator or performer, that is not a license for the press to enable him to play to the gallery.
Stop Asking Them To “Do It Again”
As much as they are happy that they are being paid to do what they love, they will appreciate it if they are allowed to do it with their sanity in place.
Will you be kind enough to stop asking them to do it again?
The Power Of The Writer – Josh Journal
Being a writer is being god-like. You have the power of life and death. Just by putting pen to paper, you create a character that has never existed.
As the writer, you are the origin of their life.
The Right Teammates – Josh Journal
From 2021 and beyond, may our peak period, our productive days, and our best years not be wasted away through no fault of ours.
I pray we find teammates that will bring out the best in us, spur us on to excellence, and may we be that teammate to others too.
Am I Elitist? – Josh Journal
If iron sharpeneth iron, then I need only the best of the best around me.
If that makes me elitist, then it is likely those around me (my accusers inclusive) are elitist too.
School Anthem – Josh Journal
The brain is indeed stronger than we ever imagined. Don’t stress over things. Even the subconscious part of you is working to fix things that matter (and do not matter) to you.
Daddy And Mummy – Josh Journal
The inquisitive part of me can’t help but wonder, did the wives start calling their husbands Daddy, because he called her Mummy, or did the husbands start calling their wives Mummy because she started calling him Daddy?
The Wedding IV Palava – Josh Journal
With or without an early IV, I am expected to be at the wedding. Matter of factly, without a wedding IV at all, I am still supposed to be there.
Like Tree Branches – Josh Journal
If I’m valued, you will enjoy me. And if not, I will excuse myself.
My time is too valuable to be wasted on fortuitous gambles, led by incompetent glory hunters.
Where Is Your Money? – Josh Journal
Late last year, I was in conversation with an acquaintance and he asked me, “where is your money? Why aren’t you wealthy?”
The person in question can be categorized as rich. And I know him well enough to know that he didn’t ask the question as an insult.
Preparing For A Heartbreak – Josh Journal
Another crazy thing about heartbreak is that even if you can see it from a mile away, it doesn’t hurt any less.
Both times I’ve experienced heartbreak, I had envisaged it, but that doesn’t ease the impact. As a matter of fact, it hurt more.
We Met Up – Josh Journal
It felt good seeing friends after a long time. That feeling is priceless. Those are moments we’ll remember with smiles as we get older.
Happy Birthday, Mummy! – Josh Journal
Happy birthday, mummy. I pray you live long in health and wealth to celebrate more of this, and more with your children.
You Are Being Sentimental! – Josh Journal
Watch yourself. Before you mention that the other person is getting emotional or sentimental, ask yourself, am I being emotional right now?
Knowing And Doing – Josh Journal
A running theme in my journal this year has been the distance between knowing and doing.
Looking around me, I realized I am not the only person who fails in closing that gap. Truth is I am a voracious consumer of knowledge.

Happy Active New Year – Josh Journal
This year though, I am stepping it up a notch and actually getting active. More exercise, more movement, more fitness.
The six-packs might not show, but we must stay healthy.
Happy Financial New Year – Josh Journal
I should preface this by stating that my financial life has been a big mess.
So when I wish you a happy financial new year, you would do well by wishing me the same.
Happy Spiritual New Year – Josh Journal
If someone wishes you a happy spiritual new year, what are you supposed to reply?
Same to you?
Amen?
Whatever the right answer might be, I do wish you a happy spiritual new year.
I don’t know if that phrase makes sense, but I hope you understand my sentiment.
Happy Studying New Year – Josh Journal
Some of us have stopped studying since we left school. There are even some people who only read when preparing for exams. What a pity.
How are you supposed to grow in life if you have stopped learning?
Happy Creative New Year – Josh Journal
Happy New Year is the salutation we are used to when we flip the calendar to start a new year, but I need to switch that to a Happy Creative New Year.
