HOW DO I GET MY HUSBAND TO LISTEN TO ME?

In one of my Relationship Talks, I discussed on this topic 

"EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION IN RELATIONSHIP AND MARRIAGE '', There was a question on `why do men find it difficult to listen and give due attention to their wives?` One of the guys in the discussion answered and said "Most of the time, some women just enjoy irrelevant conversations and the men are too busy to sit and listen to those unproductive words''

I pondered on his answer. You will agree with me that, of a truth, women are gifted in talking and can speak at length to the person they love so much, but there are tactics to speaking ,most especially to your husband, if you really desire his attention. 


CHOOSE THE RIGHT TIME. 
There is a time to talk and there is a time to be quiet. As a woman, you must study your husband's mood. It is not all the time that your husband want to converse with you or listen to you and that does not mean he hates you or fighting with you. When he just returns back from work is not the right time to begin to report the bad attitude the children displayed in School ,the NEPA and Water bills they brought or television subscription that is due. 
Another thing is when you have hurts against him,before you express yourself study his mood. Ensure he is in a relaxed mood . When you take note that your husband is tired and he is dozing already during conversations then it is the right time to be quiet. Don't begin to nag him and force him to listen to what you have to say. 


SPEAK EDUCATIVE AND INTELLIGENCE WORDS 
Men are given to few words ,they don't have all the time to sit and listen to gists that are unproductive and irrelevant. If you desire to get your husbands attention avoid gossips, repetitive gists, emphasizing on one issue for long time; Nagging. Communicate with intelligence, give words of advice,speak words of wisdom, discus in the area of his interest. Discus issues that solves his problems and productive to him. Correct him too, but do it in love. Talk about your feelings, desire, emotions and needs too. 


CHOOSE RIGHT WORDS 
Season your words with the salt of grace .Ensure your speeches are graced always and encouraging. Deliberately choose words that are edifying. If your husband knows that your words are mind breaking, and he feels down casted any time you speak ,I assure you, he will always avoid talking to you. He will be scared and will not know the next bomb you are about to release on him. Avoid always blaming him,even when he is to be blamed. Don't talk to him like you are talking to your son or house maid. Talk with him don't talk at him. Correct him in love,do not sharply rebuke him.


USE EGO BOOSTERS 
One key that will work for you is to always praise him,hail him,boost his ego ,any time you are having any conversation with him. Praise him when he says the right thing. Use appreciative words when in deep conversation with him. 


BE A GOOD LISTENER TOO 
Some women are given to too much talking. They can talk for Africa, When you want to say your own, they will tell you to wait ,that they are not through yet. Such women should learn to listen when their husbands are talking to them. Whenever you don't pay attention to what your husband is saying you send a message that you don't value him .When you listen to him you tell him that you respect and love him. When you listen you also increase in knowledge. 

Don't just talk in your marriage, have meaningful communication.

HOW TO MEASURE SUCCESS

I will be very correct to tell you that many people out there who make use of the word “success” don’t even know what it means. Sometimes people thinks success is all about having fame, riches and respect. The English dictionary describes success as “the achievement of one’s aim or goal” . There are lot of definition and meaning of success but I will take that a more composed meaning, in other words it carries the definition and meaning.           To be successful does not mean you must have half of the world in your hands, or probably, ride on a Bugatti or Ferrari, to be a success don’t not mean you must live in coconut highland, have a mansion and But to the definition I took, success talks about achievement, which is the act of achieving or performing a successful performance. And after it said one’s aim and goal, the word one’s there means your. Now let’s configure the definition removing one’s and putting your, then it will ...

P SKY DROPS A NEW SINGLE AFTER TEN MONTHS

P sky who is a Nigerian European base artist drops his new single titled Hustle after Baby Girl which was released March 2016. Hustle which featured two artists, Snoway and the producer of the song Joe Blaque, is a hit. P sky in his verse talks about his life in the streets, and how he has been hustling, the advice from his mother, and also his hatters from the street. Snoway who did not change the line of the music said, all he does is think on how to make it in the industry. How the rich is getting richer and how the poor is getting screwed. And prays he does not drop at the end of the day, as they will always say, when my maga go pay. Joe Blaque took the last verse, by taking about his badness in the industry, just like 2baba (2face Idibia) having some many children but from one woman. And he is not going to stop hustling until the richest man in Africa (dangote) calls him boss. Hummm, what a rhythm.            The song which...

MARRY A BEST FRIEND

Friends play a vital role in our lives. The presence of friends in our lives is supposed to be a blessing. There is no security like having a friend who watches your back, guides you, assists you and listens to you. After creating man, God realized there was one thing missing, which was a lifetime friend for the man. That is why He instituted marriage; a lifetime friendship between a man and his wife. In this life, if any one will doubt us, not our friends. If anyone will give up on us, not our friends yet people we call friends, people we take bullets for, are the ones behind the trigger sometimes. Enemies who want to hurt you these days come into your life as your friend, just to have access to you. Satan has succeeded in creating counterfeits, including friends. If this is not the case, how can a husband of ten years of marriage tell his wife, “I no longer feel love for you so I want a divorce”, how can a wife married to wealthy man, leave him because he is now broke.

Slim Jimmy of Rea Sremmurd has cut of his hair

I really did not know why he had to cut off his dread lock, but all I can tell is, they are no more. It wasn’t so clear that his dread locks was all gone, but take a good look at his front hair in their new video “swang”, you will see he got nothing. Doe it wasn’t too clear but it all shows that he has no hair at all, because he was on low cut. Hum I really don’t have to criticize him on that, but his new look looks good. All the same the dread lock was better off. Maybe he has reasons to cut it off, and I guess they must be good reasons. Well the other good news is we can now finally differentiate between Swae Lee and Slim Jimmy. Now I can proudly tell you that it is only Swae Lee that is on dread, while Slim Jimmy is on low cut.
