Feelings fellow behaviour

I’m sure that everyone will agree with the statement “feelings follow behaviour”. According to Wikipedia, it describes feelings as the ability to perceive physical sensation in a part of the body and behaviour as the way in which somebody behaves. In my own words I define behaviour as an action of how people behave. Feelings and behaviour work hand in hand with each.

The feelings that we get will reflect on our behaviours. It can either be in a good or bad way, depending on the situation that one is face with. Why is that so? Does this statement make sense to you? To me this statement is the other ways around because the behaviour follows feelings. Is that not so? Let us face reality now. Think of Cape Peninsula University of Technology students during examination time, they are stress and if you happen to meet a student that wrote a difficult paper on that day one can see it from his/her face. He or she is sad. Another example, when you are in love with someone, you will behave well to that person because you are happy.

If you never experience that in life that means you don’t know how your body works.

It is better to practice a little than talk a lot

I agree with the statement, it is better to practice a little than talk a lot. Cape Peninsula University of Technology students like complaining that the workload is too much. If you think deep, the workload will be too much because we wait until the last minute. If you finish your assignments on time you won’t complain. Students that like complaining are those that talks too much and they never submit any assignments. I think this should come to the end. There is a say that goes “practice makes prefect”. Which means the more you practice, the better result you will get? Is it not so?

It is important for us public relations students to practice on our writing skills before we go work next year. It is all about practicing to write proper articles. We must write so that we can improve on our writing skills. Talking too much won’t help us to pass Media Studies. In some cases keeping quite is the best way to talk.

You will bore the people around you especially when you talk about your goals that you want to achieve and not doing anything to show that you will achieve your goals. People will start calling you names such as: Mr/Miss no action. Talking too much is not good at all. Sometimes your body says much before you start talking. That is what I called the action speak louder than word.

It is important for us to start taking action and not to talk too much. At the end of the day it will be us (Students) that will be faced with the problem. Take action and become someone better in life.

It is a poor idea to lie to yourself

Of course, it is a poor idea to lie to yourself because it is a bad thing. Sometimes one gets use to it and it is difficult to change back from where you were. In life, many people think when they lie to themselves they can get away with it. Which is not true at all?

Yesterday I was conducting a research at Cape Peninsula university of Technology. I manage to interview ten students. I ask them the following questions: why do you lie to yourself? How many times did you lie to yourself? Do you think it is a good idea to lie? Do you lie to impress other people? I got really good responds from students and I can’t believe myself. Most of the students said they lie to themselves we they come from, what they do, to please other people, to hurt other people emotionally, to hide from the truth and to attempt to make our life better.

People should know that it is a poor idea to lie to yourself. In the bible Jesus said you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free. It means in life we should always seek to tell the truth to any challenge we are facing.

We must stop lying to ourselves because it is a poor idea to lie to ourselves. Let us face reality and become a better person.

Not all those who wander are lost


I agree with this statement “Not all who wander are lost.” Many of us dream to get good things in life but not all of us get to live our dreams. We tend to ask yourselves questions. Why this happening to me? Is there something wrong with me? Sometimes we even end up comparing our lives with our friends who are progressing. I know it is hard to see your friend progressing while you are not. I think we should bear in mind that we are all different from one other.

We go through that in life, and it not because we want too. I think it’s because God wants to see who is strong and whose not. If you are strong enough you will fellow the right directions still you reach your goals. If you are not strong you won’t make it. But there is a chance for that person to change and fellow the right direction. God is there to guide us anytime.

Most people think that all who wander are lost. Talking from a point of view, I think sometimes it can be a right answer or wrong answer. The reason for that is because we are all different from each other and we can never look a like. In life, it very important to except yourself for who you are and fellow your heart.

I believe not all wander are lost.
