Self-Love Vs Self-Mastery

Self-Love Vs Self-Mastery

In this episode of Construed, I shared on how we can redefine self-love for ourselves and not get carried away by popular culture. So, I'm asking what is the greatest expression of self-love? For me, I'll say self-mastery. Pls, feel free to send audio messages or a DM on how helpful you've found this episode or any feedback you might have for me here on ⁠⁠Twitter ⁠⁠or ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠.

Pedestals & Superhumans

Pedestals & Superhumans

Are all our heroes frauds? In this episode of Construed, I talk about meeting your heroes and the unrealistic expectations we have of strangers. Celebrity status does not bestow wisdom, so in choosing our mentors we must choose wisely. We must also not inherit the dogmas of our heroes when we meet them. It's okay to accept people in parts. To the best week of our lives yet. Please feel free to send a DM on how helpful you've found this episode or any feedback you might have for me here on ⁠⁠Twitter ⁠⁠or ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠.

The Relativity of Hard Work | Hardship vs Hard work

The Relativity of Hard Work | Hardship vs Hard work

Hi people, in this episode I spoke about how hard work is perceived differently across generations and how our goals should decide how hard we work and not our emotions or public opinion. As we go into a new week, pls keep in mind that hard work is relative and only your goals can dictate how hard you should work.

The Bane of Labels | Of ready-made philosophies & thought processes

The Bane of Labels | Of ready-made philosophies & thought processes

Labels are lazy in most cases. And I have come to the personal conclusion that people who look for readymade philosophies, thought processes, and human experiences are very quick to take on labels. In this short episode, 'Tunji Enahoro spoke on labels and why we must be intentional with the labels we take on.

The Responsibility of Privilege

The Responsibility of Privilege

Is privilege always monetary? Are there non-monetary privileges? In this episode, I spoke on our peculiar problems—challenges that are specific to each individual—and how our privileges balance things out on the scale of our existence. How shining and being our most valuable self is a product of our individual privileges prevailing over our peculiar problems. And what exactly makes up the responsibility of our privilege?

The 80/20 Principle | When the little things matter.

In this episode, I talked about the 80/20 rule and it can be used to deal with procrastination and perfectionism. How the seemingly little decisions or tasks make up for most of our outcomes. If you have ever struggled with prioritising your list of task or decision, the 80/20 principle is great framework to adopt.

Use This Gospel | For Money or Hope?

Use This Gospel | For Money or Hope?

Hellooo guys! In this episode, I talked about what the gospel really is and addressed the big misconception about the main benefits of the gospel and its attractions. And how the gospel should be preached according to the bible and the after-effects of preaching only the side attractions and leaving the main course. I hope this episode helps you approach evangelism in a more effective way and our life of faith as believers. Have a great week

Indecision, the great scarcity of context.

Indecision, the great scarcity of context.

In this episode, I shared a thought I had recently tweeted on—Indecision—and how many people get stuck at important decision-making junctions of their lives. I talked about one of the many factors that influence our decision-making process as humans, context, and I shared how this can sometimes be the source of indecision in our daily lives. It is not enough to get context, but we must be sure we didn't get it from unhealthy comparisons. I hope the few tips I shared on how to handle indecision help anyone listening who is going through the same.

He is one of the most socially intelligent people I know and I believe that the gems he shared would be helpful to anyone looking to shoot their shot in the future. Sadly, we narrowed this down to romantic relationships shot shooting but most of the tips shared still apply to shot shooting of any kind as it concerns human relationships.
