HANDLING MARRIAGE: WORK SERIOUSLY ON YOUR LOVE LANGUAGES!
A lot of people are wondering whether their spouses love them or not. On the other hand, their spouses are wondering why they do not appreciate the enormous love they show to them. A major reason for this situation is that even if one shows love in the best way one can, their spouse may not seem to see it because it is in a language that they do not really understand. It is therefore important to try as much as possible to learn your spouse’ love language and speak it so that they will feel loved. - Dr. Josiah B. Andor

BUILDING TRUST AND CREDIBILITY!
One aspect of consistency that needs to be looked at is adherence to industry norms and standards. A consistent person can be described as one who follows universally accepted standards within specific industries. Though it's helpful to be unique and become a master of your own style, it has to be consistent with the principles of best practices. Even in your uniqueness, you have to conform to standards.

You can do this by, first of all, studying others in a similar line of work, identifying the principles that characterize their practice, and incorporating them into what you do. Once the principles are incorporated, you can employ your unique ideas and focus on giving off your best. In this case, you will stand out as a trusted name that also adheres to industry norms and standards. This will help build trust and credibility. — Dr. Josiah B. Andor

GREATNESS IS MEANINGLESS!
Apart from pleasure (Ecclesiastes 2:1-3), the next thing the preacher focused on were things associated with greatness - houses, vineyards, gardens, parks, reservoirs, servants, herds, flocks, silver and gold, treasures, a harem (vv. 4-8). One would expect that these should provide some meaning to life; but the conclusion is the same - he says, “everything was meaningless, a chasing after the wind; nothing was gained under the sun.” (v. 11, NIV).

Just like the preacher, many are striving to achieve greatness and enjoy things attributed to greatness. But the reality is that they only give a temporary feeling of accomplishment, which has no lasting value. To find meaning in life, there is a need for something more than just physical indicators of greatness. It may feel good to achieve greatness in life, but it should not be the ultimate goal of life. Eventually, it will prove to be meaningless. – Josiah B. Andor, PhD.

DEALING WITH DISTRACTIONS IN YOUR MARRIAGE: ENSURE APPROPRIATE BALANCE!
Working on the time you spend together with your spouse is so essential that every couple would have to make it a priority. Couples have to work on being present in their marriage by making intentional efforts to avoid distractions and concentrating on the marriage instead. Distractions that come in the form of gadgets, social media, friends, work, family, money, children, visions, career, business, exes, besties, and ideologies, will need to be checked and efforts put in place to ensure the appropriate balance. - Dr. Josiah B.

DEAL WITH DISTRACTIONS IN YOUR MARRIAGE: IDEOLOGIES!
The ideologies you hold about certain issues, events, or activities can be a distraction to your marriage. This happens when you allow those ideologies to come between you and your spouse. When you are so convinced about a particular issue, you tend to disregard the views of your spouse when they share a contrary opinion. In such cases, you lose your oneness on the issues that manifest your differences. In order for your ideologies not to pose a distraction to your marriage, it is helpful to make an intentional effort to clearly communicate your ideologies, listen to those of your spouse, and come to a clear understanding of your respective views. - Dr. Josiah B.

DEAL WITH DISTRACTIONS IN YOUR MARRIAGE: BESTIES!
Friends can be a distraction to your marriage, but the worst group of friends in this regard are the ones termed “Besties”. These are friends who are extremely close to the extent that they occupy a major part of your life. As a result, they tend to take all your time and attention. Such friends can be a major distraction as their presence can negatively affect your time with your spouse. It is therefore important to make an intentional effort to to ensure that your besties do not pose a distraction to your marriage. - Dr. Josiah B. Andor

DEAL WITH DISTRACTIONS IN YOUR MARRIAGE: EXES!
It is important to work on avoiding the influence of your ex on your marriage. You need to be careful not to allow your ex to be a distraction to your marriage. Whether your break-up was based on a mutual understanding or based on a hostile misunderstanding, you need to have boundaries so it doesn’t conflict with the time you have for your spouse. Don’t let your ex be a distraction to your marriage. It is important to put in intentional effort to ensure that much attention is given to your marriage despite the connection you may have with your ex. - Dr. Josiah B. Andor

DEAL WITH DISTRACTIONS IN YOUR MARRIAGE: BUSINESS!
Building a business can take so much time and attention. You need to spend a lot of your time, resources, and focus fully on it; especially if it is at the initial stages of its inception. Whereas there is nothing inherently wrong in giving your business attention, you don’t have to ignore your marriage in the process. It is important to give attention to your marriage even when you are building a business. Don’t let your business be a distraction to your marriage. There is the need for intentional effort to ensure that much attention is given to your marriage as well as your business. - Dr. Josiah B. Andor

A TRUSTED NAME!
Since people take you seriously once you are consistent, it is very important to build consistency as a trait. Consistency involves reliability, uniformity, and harmony. It implies living a principle-driven life and applying your principles in all situations. In addition, it is important that consistency is shown in your personal habits. This means you have to make it a point of principle to maintain a regular routine. It is one side of consistency that helps build trust and promote efficiency.

If you are able to identify a good habit, it will be helpful to build upon it until you become a trusted master. Once you master it, the next step is to establish a routine that will be regular and predictable. This builds trust and makes you more committed and efficient. You need to remember that once you are consistent, you will be taken seriously at all times, and no one will attempt to take you for granted. When you establish and maintain a regular routine, you become a trusted name everywhere. — Dr. Josiah B. Andor

PLEASURE IS MEANINGLESS!
In Ecclesiastes 2, the preacher explains the attempts he made to find meaning in life. He lists a number of things he attempted to depend on - pleasure, laughter, amusement, wine, infrastructure, etc. None of these helped in any significant manner. The first one in verse 1 is pleasure. It reads: “I said to myself, “Come now, I will test you with pleasure to find out what is good.” But that also proved to be meaningless.” (NIV). In short, he sought to experiment with pleasure and having a good time.

Though this might have entailed a lot of activities, he concludes that it is also meaningless, like vapour. This shows that pleasure may be good, but it does not offer meaning to life. You may engage in enjoyable activities - parties, celebrations, joyful occasions, and other forms of pleasure, but you may still be unhappy. To wit, having a good time is okay; but it should not be the ultimate goal of life. It will prove to be meaningless. – Josiah B. Andor, PhD.
