The Intoxicated Reign of Words

Intoxicated to drugs;
My drugs are Lexis;
Literarily insane enough;
Acute poetically depressed;
A naturally frustrated linguist;
An inoffensive verbal criminal;
Get me an over-exposed perp-walk;
That’s what I am, a merciless LOGOPHILE!
A bloody, freaky, aggressive, yet sweet PHRASEOLOGIST!

Welcome to my world, the World of Expression!

Reinventing Yourself: Shifting To The Next Level


Reinventing oneself has nothing to do with developing new skills and abilities in you, but it is more like a ‘wake-up-the-hidden-talent-in-you’ exercise, which, in difficult times instinctively orders the mind to find new approaches in order to put things back on the rail and it which is sine qua non to brilliance.

It is a crucial time in life when the gears of the body turns out to be rusty and where wear and tear shows itself to be affecting the once acclaimed innovation, creativity and dynamism in us, which requires the mechanism to be greased and oiled, that is by maintaining constant reviewing and monitoring of our qualities.

The reengineering/rejuvenation takes effect after renewing or upgrading our qualities, which was for some time perceived to be acquired and static rather than evolving thanks to catalysts like situations. Stress is incontestably viewed as deadly, but applying some doses of optimism creates a reversed effect from deadly to heavenly.

Listen to yourself by first understanding the psychology of the individual and the environment in which he/she evolves. Through observation, draw some bring about analysis which will derive to several hypothesis or alternate crisis resolutions. Weigh the pros and cons of each solution and decide upon the most reliable, viable and wise decision based on the long-term vision.

Start applying the ‘now, can and must’ rule in your life, but renovating the ‘maybe and later’ rule and jump into opportunities and use the latter as vehicles for you to reach your goals. Nurture an steady confidence in you, in your thought, decision and action, get rid of all archaic and disruptive thoughts and think proactively with the eyes focussed to the horizon, anticipate on unexpected situations along with rescue plans (in case of), fuel yourself with motivations and pull on the trigger by acting responsibly and collaboratively.

La Sagesse de l’homme


La sagesse de l’homme ne se résume en l’ignorance des bassesses répugnantes, des provocations répétées, des langues fourchues, des pensées empestées,  les actions machiavéliques, des ingratitudes récurrentes et des impairs irréfléchis de ses semblables.

Seule sa grandeur d’âme, sa modestie, son honnêteté, sa sérénité et son pouvoir d’accepter les choses comme elles sont demeurent ses atouts et ce qui fait de lui un être à part entière.

En somme, on peut déduire que le monde est un océan qui est constitué des innombrables espèces les une plus amicales que les autres et les une plus coriaces que les autres, ce qui rend ce monde fort intéressant, vivable et excitant.

Comme quoi, la beauté est non seulement la délicatesse, mais on y trouve aussi de la désolation déguisée.

Have a 'Prosperous' Meal


Personal success is never affected by the so-called windfall effect. It is a long-time process and preparations. The best way for someone to grow up emotionally, intellectually, psychologically, socially and economically as well is to prior raise some vital questions, for instance who we are, how we are and who we can be and how to reach greatness. Greatness may not be termed as being divine, but in terms of the importance you give to the self.

However, there may be some barriers to personal development that is ‘towards becoming better than you are’. One of them is the attraction of the inferiority complex, which is a catalyst towards reproducing obstructions to success and there is also the fact of being too pessimist, as well as defeatist. Giving up even before starting something is the worst of all illness. You will, in any way experience the waterfall effect in case you still nourish your mind with such things.

The best way to pivot from a smaller dimension to a bigger one is not a secret kept in a double-locked vault, but it is something which is dormant somewhere in our grey matter. It is the only place where you are allowed to make a mess in order to look for the things, the vital one, of course. Get yourself to work now. Convert your weaknesses to strength and your threat to opportunities and gather the ingredients, for instance optimism, courage, perseverance, peace of mind, stir them under the mild fire of determination and have a ‘prosperous’ (…) meal.

Business Relationship: Family, Friends and Foes


Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger are two icons and synonyms of success that have chosen to keep a low-profile. Having inherited gifts like creativity, innovation and coding in their genes, they both created an apps called Burbn, which would then be re-engineered and renamed to Instagram. Jack Dorsey, the founder of Twitter, who is a friend of Kevin Systrom was the first ‘outsider’ to test the once ‘beta’ version of Instagram and he promoted Instagram on his Twitter account, which resulted the download counter to explode in less than 24 hours, indicating more than 25,000 downloads on their iPhones.

Moreover, Kevin Systrom benefitted from his personal networking to get his new product marketed and launched and this is thanks to Jack Dorsey. Investors like Dorsey, amongst others then queued up to invest in the company which has a lot of potential in the industry. Jack Dorsey, seeing the success of Instagram, had in mind to acquire the company and to integrate it to Twitter and he formally made the first step by expressing his interest thereof. The offer was categorically declined by Kevin Systrom.

However, some months later, following the dropping of the initial proposal, Facebook eyed Instagram as its next acquisition and Mark Zukerberg, the man who needs no more introduction made an eye-popping offer of $ 1 billion, which was soon accepted by the founder of Instagram. The founder of Facebook raised the bar to such an extent that his competitors would not dare to adventure themselves into the transaction. Kevin Systrom and Co. accepted the offer, hence putting an end to the sound relationship with Jack Dorsey, who contributed to the success of Instagram.
Conclusion of this real-life situation: Friendship has never been a factor of benefit in any business, not even family relationship. There are no friends, no family and no relatives in the cruelly competitive business world, but only business partners. The friends of yesterday can turn to be the enemies to tomorrow!

Une Histoire de Différence


C’est l’histoire qui jette la base sur les différences entre 2 guépards et une antilope.

Les félins sont des carnivores qui ne peuvent résister à la chair et au sang, tandis que l’antilope et la proie même de ces félidés mentionnés ci-dessus. L’insolite veut que les prédateurs ont sauvé la vie de leur ‘nourriture’.

Ceci dit, le fait d’être diffèrent l’un envers l’autre apporte des défis et d’ouverture d’esprit et la beauté dans la vie de tout un chacun.

Tout comme la terre et le ciel.

Ces derniers sont heureux comme ça, la terre admire le ciel et le ciel contemple en faire de même, même s'ils sont très distants.

Au fait, c'est pour dire que les différences sont complémentaires pour faire de ce monde un lieu paradisiaque, intéressant, formidable et où il fait bon vivre.

Sans les différences, ça aurait était monotone, tout comme automne, ou il n'y rien mais que du blanc, du froid et une monopolisation de la souffrance des sans-abris.

Il faut avoir le mal pour que le bien puisse éclore, au cas contraire, le mal apporterait certainement la destruction.

C'est ça l'importance des différences entre les personnes ; ce qui procure la beauté dans une relation.

Sur ce, cessons toutes formes de discrimination et vivons dans l’harmonie, dans la paix et en fraternité.

Même les animaux nous montrent l’exemple, alors allons faire de même !

Coup de théâtre; Prorogation du Parlement – Ça sent le roussi !


En s’appuyant sur  l’article 57 de la constitution compte tenu de son prérogative, le Premier Ministre a décidé de proroger la rentrée parlementaire, soit de repousser l’échéance des vacances parlementaires pour le 16 avril 2012. Avec une majorité peu confortable, des observateurs ou comme diraient d’autres, des mauvaises langues commence à se délirer en affirmant que ‘le seul maître à bord’ est en ballottage défavorable et il craint vraisemblablement d’être balancé par-dessus bord de son navire qui est en train de prendre l’eau. On laisse entendre qu’il s’est montré farouche quant à une rentrée qui peut, sans aucun doute, lui couter chère, voir même une destitution surprise. Est-ce que le ‘Tout-Puissant’ nourrit-il la frayeur d’être pris par surprise par une motion de non confiance de la part de l’opposition, désormais unis ? Autant de questions dont les réponses ne seraient tardées à faire surface. Ainsi, peut-on dire que c’est la fin d’un règne ou un simple mouvement de pion dans l’échiquier  politique par le ‘fin stratège en personne’ ? L’avenir nous le dira !
