The fun is when you do it first time honestly without looking at the answer.
Try it...
Five things are happening in your house at the same time. In which sequence would you solve them?
1. The telephone is ringing!
2. The baby is crying!
3. Some one's knocking or calling you from the front door!
4. You hung the clothes out to dry and it is beginning to rain!
5. You left the tap on in the kitchen and the water is already overflowing!
In which sequence would you solve these problems? Write your sequence from 1 to 5, then scroll below and check how your decisions were made. BE HONEST to yourself!
It's a Crazy Circle
Can I console you?
Someone came to see me at the office yesterday, while talking business a name came up, and for at least 30 minutes all he did was a count down of the top 20 reasons why this person was an ASS. He said things about this other person that I can't repeat anywhere else. It was dirty and uncalled for. I just sat there and listened wondering how many times someone somewhere has counted twenty things they didn't like about me.
Interestingly, immediately he left, another guy came into my office and didn't understand why I would grant audience to the guy who just left. "He's a failure" this new guy started, and for at least 10 minutes he mentioned so many reasons why he's not a person to be associated with. And like before I just sat there and listened.
Then this morning, three models came to the office to pick up their cheques and while waiting at the reception, I heard them talking negatively about another model who they felt sold out. When my sister eventually came to the office, I asked her about the situation with the model they were talking about, and she told me not to pay any attention to the three models, and she said something about one of them in particular that left me stunned.
A few hours later, someone called me to report my sister to me...
I dropped the phone and called my publicist, Niyi Tabiti, and he told me some things that I do that he doesn't like...
That was when I realised what a crazy circle it really is...everytime you talk about someone, someone else talks about you.
For everyone who thinks you're stupid, there are ten people who think they're foolish. For everyone who tells you you're uncultured, be rest assured that there's someone somewhere who thinks they are crude. Every time people gather around and talk about you, best believe there are people gathered somewhere talking about everyone one of them. I guess this means no one is perfect.
So every time someone says nonsense about you, don't let it phase you, instead imagine the 10's of people saying something negative about them at that moment. That's the circle!
And there are no exceptions. No matter how good you are, there's someone who doesn't like you. Sometimes they don't have a reason, they don't need one, they just love to HATE!
So don't let what people say to your face or behind your back make a difference to you. She thinks you're crazy? It's OK, someone else thinks she's an idiot...lol
Photo of the day...
1. Telephone represents Work
2. Baby represents Family
3. Door represents Friends
4. Clothes represent Money
5. Tap represents Sex

mehnnn... is dis Freud thing furreal?
Mine was 23541,lol...work coming in last.hmm.
It's really a circle,that's y i dont get it when people are really about pleasing everyone,it's not possible.There will always be haters,even mother theresa will have some.
I dont by this Freud priority.. Mine was 25431, Baby first.
Mine was 21534 lol
Very good analogy...for everyone person talking ish about you there is somebody doing the same to them
Eh...Gloria, the fact that the child can cry, means her airway is clear. One should be more afraid of silence or a choking sound.
Pre natal 101.
mehn, Freud was such a sex drunk idiot. lol...everything is all about sex for him..a guy who believes that every single human being is bisexual...hisssss! Even before looking at the explanation he gave i chose my baby, then tap cos mopping is not my favorite sport!..(how da hek did he even make the connection between sex and tap bikonu??...craze man)...then i'll picking up the phone and run out to get my clothes while talkn on the phone....while all this is happening, i must've told the visitor to hold on one minute..lol...
Nma
I did 5 first. But Sex is the last thing on my list oh! 52431
I turned the tap off first... but i don't believe it- i've never had sex, lol.
lol! that was actually funny. mine was 1,5,2,4,3. For me, it's family before work.i guess the ideal thn for me would v been-2,1,5,4,3 but i didnt relate those terms to the interpretations freud gave.
Lol! that test was actually funny.mine was 1,5,2,4,3.i guess i didnt relate the terms to the interpretation.i guess the ideal thn for me is 2,1,5,4,3.
Linda you have issues...I really do enjoy your blog. I chose 5 cos it won't be nice to leave the tap running. Baby comes second, he or she will have breast to compensate. Lol.
i turned on the tap first, never has sez either..what does this mean lol!
Yeap me too 5 first. So how many of you got 5 that are female, let's hook up for it :) First timers are welcome. by the way I had 542 as my first three choices. Hit me on aqualaaa@yahoo.de :) no spams please :)
Ya'll #5's better mail me make we hook up.
I bet we them "sex" on priority list are the smartest.
I chose 5,4,2,3,1 and your analogy of crazy circle is so true. I experienced that yesterday. If people don't hate on you then you are not living. My mom has a saying that let people hate on you and you give God a reason to bless you by reminding Him of those hating on you.
hm i knw i came to the office to report one of our staff and i just hope i am not that person that you tolerate o! nike oshinowo wana be .
I did 1, 5 , 3, 4 and 2. If this is real, then i'm not sure i want to reconsider my priorities. Mybe i dont just dig the family thing but im surprised i had let it fall so low on the scale that it's actually on the bottom.
Linda, did you watch saving africa's witch children? http://www.bellanaija.com/2008/11/18/saving-africas-witch-children/
