You are right he has been on the list of extra ticket on two or three occasions. A big congrats to him for making it to the top
Thanks. Seem to be having a very lucky week. I guess it pays to be consistent around here. Some weeks I don't show up at all and when I do later on it seems to cover it all. One morale on this and life in general is to show up daily and to be consistent no matter what.
Oh, consistency is the one thing that always pays off.

This dawn we reach the mark of 1 million mined POB
I posted on, checking by clicking here
Thanks for keeping us engaged. Well, at least for holding out the prize to encourage so many to come and join in discussion.
Wow that's so amazing getting 1 million POB, that's requires a lot of hard work and extra, I will really love you to share this little idea with us in the POB talk. Achieving that in 5 months takes a lot of determination and extra hard work.
Oh that is really nice to hear...
A very good one from you and am going directly to check out that post from you after a little engagement here.
You are indeed to me a good role model,keep going
today I want to continue the content i couldn't complete the other day, for those that can remember, i posted about:
FOUR TYPES OF PEOPLE YOU NEED TO BE GREAT OR SUCCESSFUL IN LIFE
and as i said , i gave two which were
1.DIVINE CONNECTOR
2.PEOPLE OF ACCESS
today am here to drop the remaining two
and here we move to the number:
This people are great and wonderful people which we need to be praying to have in life, because they have alot of good effect in our life.
Having such people around you, it will be easy to overcome a battle or challenge in life, because they will give you good advice and also pray along with you.
They will love to see in that success, they try the possible best to keep you in right path.
yes ,you really get the message am trying to pass across
Yes now because they are so powerful in encouraging you, they will boost you with there advice.
And at the end you see yourself as a success man.
Wow this is very educating, I'm finding it interesting, I think I missed out from the other two you talked about in your old post but I'm so pleased to read the content of the remaining two.
This is you mentioned is really what an individual needs to be successful because at every point we as humans need help in life and if you do not the adequate people in life to give you lifting hands to succeed that you're doom to fail or suffer to survive alone.
For us to make it in life we need to be divinely connected to people that can help you get to a certain level and people with access to place you on places where you did merit for you to gain your ground against any fall that will be fall you.
Now you talked about two great points today which is extremely necessary and important for someone to have in his/her life which is the BURDEN BEARERS AND GIFTED PEOPLE. This gives great hope when you have people like this beside you to always stand for you no matter what and also give you guide when you seems to be loosing your way.
Thank for this teaching and I think is what people will aim to achieve on making friends and relationship the keep on life.
Keep relationship and friendship that is worthwhile in life and for a reason and also invest in it to grow.
NOTE:-
No one will achieve all this kind of people listed around them if you do not invest in that friendship and build it to that stage .
i love your response to the post and happy that my post can be a blessing to people which i didn't even know or see, it a great pleasure to me, and i also learn from you to invest in friendship, i will also keep that in mind ,thanks
Thank for creating such a beautiful post, we are all here together and the platform is meant for us to interact with each other, one of the reasons while we are here is to learn one or two things from ourselves.
I'm glad my contribution is valued by you and also passed on knowledge to you but I'm so happy to learn the words you taught in your content and will keep that in mind always in making friends.
Interesting one. Happen to have contributed to the past. You seem to bring realities of people we need to recognize if aim to achieve much. The importance of relationship cannot be over stated as they determine how far we go in achieving certain things in life.
Indeed we need the above kind of people in life as we can't all bear doing everything ourselves. The burden bearers are needed has we sometimes need emotional succour or people behind our to go through certain challenges. They can be our soul mates, friend partner or whatever but they have a great impact on us emotionally.
Gifted people are great as we don't have it all. We are blessed with different grace and we should be humble to tap from those who who seem to better than or have towed certain route we are about to make. Thanks for bringing such topic, it's really needed on our sojourn here on earth.
thank you for your response to the post and you are also giving me more knowledge as you talk about emotional succour, they are much important to our life too, they play a big role in our life
My pleasure. Many thanks to you for bringing up the topic in the first place
This nis good from you and I want to believe that I did little in adding little to the content then,I really want to say I won't be saying much in this edition as I really think that you have said all
And let me give you a great commendation that you have really been doing very well since your introduction to the house and let me say keep going higher mate.
Success on it own does not happen alone as our strength alone at some stage might been too hard for us to achieve this thing.
That is what it is very essential that we learn how to get surrounded with people of great Value and good mindset
People that see all the good things in you,even when you are failing,those that are willing to put you on your feet while you are down.
I learn some things from your wonderful writeup..
thank you for the comment
Good morning pals,
I could not participate well yesterday due to pressure at work. I got home exhausted that I couldn't touch my phone like that. It's sad that I couldn't make be in top 10 not to talk about top 3 on the list.
I promise you all guys that are taking my place here... I will claim my spot today... Be ready for me
Good day man. It's understandable, there are days offline that restrict our participation here. It not however something to be sad about, today is another day to redeem yesterday. Great on showing up more motivated than ever to remedy Friday lack of activity here. Hope you eventually end up getting rewarded today. But note here on pobtalk it's a random selection and one can only get lucky like every draws.
I thought the winners are picked randomly,but you sound like you know to surely win...care to share
Good day everyone. Let talk on how you do spend your leisure period?
What do you love doing at your leisure time?
Most my leisure time is currently spent with Splinterlands and the HIVE Network.
Wow nice question from you mate, greetings to you, hope you're having a lovely weekend and a good time too.
Well coming to your question concerning "what I love doing in my leisure time".
Well I love watching movies, play games like what or ludo or even only games, most especially I love playing play station too this one keeps me company a lot.
The kind of movie I watch though from Nigeria but I don't find most of Nigeria movies attractive except the ones on Netflix. So I enjoy watching action movies and adventure movies don't like zombies but comedy movies gets me going though.
I also use this period to browse and stuff the net for more knowledge and news update that are relevant, I also do some cleaning and laundry.
I try to write articles in advance so that I can post them on read.cash and HIVE later when I have nothing to post.
Oh i think that is a smart way of making use of your leisure time..
Hello dear, have you logged into your POB account yet? You have earned 100 POB rewards, congrats. You should stake them, so that you can get voting power and earn some curation here. The best part of POB is its curation rewards, try for yourself 😊👍
Definitely this is a very important thing that we should all know and do also.
Just like my father do say, hearing is not enough in getting results,but putting the information or instructions gotten into act is the best thing in life.
Hope you won't mind if I decided to call you Carrier of great information, thanks for doing this once and I expect everyone to take to this,I see this as another means of investing in yourself and the community.
Good reminder for all us mate
Good day man. Regarding the question at hand, even though have enough leisure time as I'd like due to the activities of the offline world, I don't to do some pleasant things when chanced.
During those free period or times, I do alot reading and listening words that can cause a shift in me. It could reading spiritual or Inspiration books or messages/podcast. Anything that can uplift my spirit.
These days it has reduced a bit but we still setting our sights to create more time and becoming a better version of myself. Apart from the above mentioned, I also spend some time in watching some movies (action, drama, SciFi) and a lot of them depending on my mood.
Back in the days I used to play lot of games but now due to time that has been cut off. Will love to get back into that occasionally to relieve myself from work stress and all. As they say, all work and play makes jack a dull boy.
Due to overwhelming activities in a way to meet up with set goals, leisure time in Nigeria has been sur-changed. Working Monday to Saturday night is now the order. The only day which is Sunday is also use to prepare for Monday. This is crazy.
Tell me, where is the leisure time... For me, the few minutes that I have is to come on this platform to relate with you guys, drop comments and do some write up if chance permit me.
Thank you
I often like watching movies and get a good sleep
Question.
Is happiness a mindset or Is happiness a journey?
If it's mindset how come people who are depressed can;be changed just like that?
If it's a journey then how come people who work hard are not happy?
How does happiness work? Does it have a fixed formula or it keeps on changing?
Its a mindset, depression can 100% be cured but it depends on the person and what is causing the depression. There's no secret formula for happiness. We are all individual people with individual needs. For one a work life might equal happiness for others the freedom that money can afford them might be the key. For others all they need is a roof over their head and a hot meal.
I'm a simple man, !BEER brings me happiness.
Well this your question is a bit confusing to me I've read it over and over again before some thing pop up in my head on what to write concerning if mindset and journey.
Well I will say happiness is a mindset, is can be in a way we programmed ourselves to be and things which we allow to get us as humans.
We have to know that whatever energy we give towards something that the energy we will be getting back from it, so when we always do or engage in things that makes us happy we always keep our focus and mindset on it.
For people that get depressed even though the kept the mindset of being happy, we have to understand we are all humans and we are doom to fave hard times at a certain level or stage in life.
I will not say happiness is a journey and I won't also agree that every body working hard are always happy.
My reason is this we all strive to get a work for a leaving and for it to settle part of our problems but what we also have to know is that what we are offered for the job is not always enough to cater and satisfy all our need.
So when you link working hard to happiness I will say no because what we go through at work and earn in return is not what makes us happy but rather the factors around us do.
I don't know how happiness works but we have to know, according to me happiness works in accordance to what will allow ourselves to react to or things we engage ourselves to in doing.
Well it depends on how the individual sees happiness,as for me happiness is a journey..
I believe it's more a mindset than a journey. For people who are depressed, I believe all the treatment done just brings them back to where they originally should be. As after been cured some still have the tendency to relapse if they don't hold on to happiness has a reality that occurs in the mind.
It's not a journey as people who work hard and eventually achieve success or get rich sometimes still feel they need more happiness. Happiness is an existing now. The earlier we realize it, the better for us.
The fixed formula of been happy is to first realize nothing can truly make happy until we chose to be contented with what we already have and not placing or tying that special feeling to someone or to a thing.

.Wow,this is really going to crack my brain as I have to read twice and still I will be looking like someone who Is going to sit on the fence here,cause to me this is really tricky.
Happiness can come in two ways,the mind thing and a journey in terms of the results gotten on a particular project.
Many tend to keep their Self happy irrespective of what they are facing and that is where the mind comes into play, mind you this is my opinion,we have people that ad encounter a lot of challenges and difficulties in life,but they choose to be happy cause they have this positive mindset about life and it happing.
On the other side people get happy,when they completely achieved success on a project or assignment.
So to me it depends on how it comes to an individual or the angle we are seeing it from
As for me i believe that happiness is a mindset,i learn to stay happy regardless of my situation

.This may be way off target but I wonder how many users here have trouble with mosquitoes...
Not mosquitos, but midges.
One thing that works with both mosquitos and midges is to keep a lot of live basil plants in pots in each room. Mosquitos are quite blind and locate their prey via smell, and the basil gives off a scent which confuses the mosquitos and they can't find you to bite you.
I seem to have experienced those annoying creatures feeding off my blood some days back. Used them repellent to kill them off. They are still a trouble from time to time though.
Mosquitoes like sweet blood, are u a sugar baby? Lol😊😂
Hello everyone how are you guys doing hope you guys are having a lovely weekend and a good time too.
Today is my resting day and I've been at home all day fighting with my bed and pillows.
Funny things today is hungry wants to kill me I was so lazy to cook food or go out to buy something, so I ended up drinking tea and having bread that morning now I'm hungry again and the time is 6pm Nigeria time.
Let's do this today and tomorrow and spread POB talk to our various blog to gain new members in the platform.
You guys should remember we have a target of @100 Participant here in POB talk and make engagement here more lively.
Greetings man. I'm doing great and the weekend has been quite good. Had enough rest this weekend than any other. Same here about them pillows and bed, I think I might have been struck with the sleeping sickness :-)
Funny how hungry you were and lack the energy to cook something. This things happen. Happen to share the same with you too. cooking is hard, the reason I also wish come up with something that can be made ready in less than five minutes or prefer buying already cooked food or some junks.
Great idea with rebbloging to give pobtalk more visibility. Will be doing that for 57th edition as this is old already.
Would be really awesome to hit 100 members here on pobtalk. Looking forward to when that day arrives, I believe it will be real soon
Good to have you reply mate, I didn't expect you to be bouncing around in 56th edition thought you won't gimme a reply but here you are always turning stones on your reply list around, that's nice of you.
Don't mind me and my laziness it comes and goes like that without my attention but I also need to find a way to get it under control now one cooks for me except I do that myself.
Yes sorry about the reblog stuff I always come to the room late but I will try one of this day to paste it early so others will attend to it before it gets cold.
Is our collective effort that will get us 100 participants in the chat room, if we cannot achieve that I don't know how else it will be done. So we ought to have that in mind and do everything within out power to make the room active always.
I always do well to reply any interesting comment in stumble on no matter how. Having quite a day yesterday I wasn't able to reply every one here which is usually my daily practice as I seem to be glued making a visit to pobtalk every now and then.
Wouldn't do that as I am also guilty when it comes to cooking and all. Also be believe it's normal to experience a bit of laziness on some days and most times on weekend after having gone through a stress week on them working days. For the cooking and kitchen duties, I think you might need a wife on that :-)
Nothing to be sorry about. It's important has daily participants of this initiative to give this platform some form of advertisement or publicity and the rebbloging happens to do just that to an extent. Good reminding people also about it.
Yeah it's our duty. I believe before the end of August we should be seeing such numbers of participants if we continue this way. With vempromundo.pob also increasing the rewards today by offering upvotes to top engagers irrespective of been part of the raffle or not, that should incenticize more people. Would really love us to grow around here in terms of numbers and stake holdings.
Oh I see I'm not the only one who gets lazy going to cook up something to eat but you're right though after running around all week day in day out it seems to be more had for us to stand or gain the strength to cook up something. But I think I will figure a way for me to handle that aspect to avoid being hungry Everytime.
However I'm still young mate thank you for the advice to get a wife, that's would be the best solution to that but at my stage now I'm not really thinking about getting married now as I have a lot of things which needs my attention and things I need to achieve before getting a wife for myself.
I don't like the situation where I will get a wife and I won't be able to take care of her the way I want and judging that I'm still young my parents is still expecting more from me mate.
Wow that's good news from vempromundo.pob adding extra contest to the existing one, this means that engagement will be on a higher rate today.
I'm partially active online today just engaging in few things though but when I have the chance I will pop into 57th edition to know what is going on.
Yeah laziness tend to set in after any leisure time to rest and good the weekend provides that. Food has not been my problem has I totally avoided the kitchen by eating out. I find that more beneficial as it saves time and also seem cost effective has I don't eat much. After comparing both prices, they are not far apart.
Oh, nice not rrushing into marriage when you are not ready for it. Been young provide the opportunity to be prepared emotionally, mentally and financially for that phase of life. I believe you have a fiance or girl friend, she can help you with the cooking aspect if you truly desire home made meals.
I perfectly understand your reasons. Great to think that way and not to follow others jumping into that ship when they are not ready. It's good to count the cost of setting into something before venturing into.
Yeah it would most exciting with the increased rewards. Quite noticeable, your engagement level today. I hope to see there and of course to interact more on that other side :-)
Okay I guess I will see you in the other side if I have the chance to engage over there because I feel like letting my phone rest a bit and also settle me head I've been busy with some other stuff today and it really took my time.
Well I'm not the kind of person that eats outside I prefer cooking what I eat and it also saves me more cost come to think about it and make the calculation the cost of me eating 2 square meal outside, I will use it to prepare a meal that I will eat 3 times before the day ends and still have small left over.
Another thing is that I'm not the going out type once I'm inside I feel lazy to step outside again so it won't be ideal for me if I base my eating outside because I will end up starving and places I can get food around is a bit far from my location.
Yes I put that into consideration, I can't just venture into it mate without sorting out a future for both of us and our children too. So is something I have be prepared for and ready to do.
Thank you for being so active with me.
What do you think will be the price of bitcoin by end of the year
I have been seeing some crazy predictions. I personally believe we could be seeing such highs like we saw earlier this year. Maybe $60-$70k all things been equal
Congratulations to the winners, u guys really deserved it.im reaaly happy for you guys congratulations once again.
Another late comer is here again today,but trust me I just have to be here and I want to say have been really engaged this days which as actually kept me out from here ,but still I can't not but come here and say hello to you mate's
Trust you guys are really enjoying the weekend and I must say mine as been busy since ,cause I have alot to do as I worked as an observer today in my state for an election which was held today,.
Trust you are wondering where I am from and seems have not really talked about that before,but definitely you got to know that today cause I have a question I need to ask self.
Am a Nigerian and I reside in one of the best part of this state in that country called Lagos state,trust you mate's might not have known much about that state,but trust me,try and come for vacation as their are lot of good places to see and relax.
But that is not really the major reason of coming to here and typing all this,juts like I said in the above statement that I worked as an observer today in the local government election that was held today, trust me it was a very good and peaceful one to say.
But my observation today as really drive my attention to the question which am about to ask,this is my opinion anyway and I must say am liable to every decision I make or suggestions I raised and thanks to the fact that thier is freedom of speech here.
Just as we do have elections in other countries too,I really get worried at the mind set of the citizens while casting their vote and most important the complain you heard from them after the elected person start misbehaving nor start going against their campaign promises.
This above statement is why am asking this question
A little surprised not to have seen you inspiring and thought provoking nuggets you share daily yesterday of all days. I figured out you must be really busy with real life stuffs. Great you eventually did even though it was a bit late.
I can only say for myself, the weekend has been awesome. Had enough rest till the extent that I feel I might run sick due to oversleeping. Funny right?:-).
You were an election observer, how cool was that? I also chose to stay away from them elections, not a cool act from me I know. Just applying safety measures, I believe you know what I mean:-)?
I figured it must be Nigeria has they also seem to be observing some form of local government election. Cool, the commercial Capital of the country Nigeria, I believe. Seem to have quite a lot of the state. it seems really popular and one of places that come to mind when the word Nigeria is discussed. Would be really to visit some hotspot over there especially in the island part of Lagos. I heard that's where all the fun is at.
Wanted to ask you earlier how the election as went. Great to know it was all peaceful and fair. That's exactly how all elections ought to be.
Concerning the major point of discussion which is your above question, I believe the personality and achievement of the candidate should be the major concern no all the manifesto and all as politicians seems to lie all the time in a bid to just seat in that position of power.
Hello Friends, Greetings 😊🙏
If you want success,
never cry at difficult circumstances,
Do not be afraid of the failure right away
Because the river never asks how far the sea is.
Enjoy the weekend and Engage 🙏
Wow.... beautiful and fantastic quote. Difficult time are indeed the right time to stand up and fight for what we want.
Yes a successful man never uses the whole night to sleep
The task to become successful is not a small one, failure is part of learn never get discouraged
Success never comes without struggles and there’s no fun too
Yeah you are right to get success one does not need to be weary or get tired of difficult circumstances around that may want to pull us back.
@vikbuddy thanks for your everyday motivational quote. When wake up in Nigeria all what we get it is motivational quote that has been keeping us moving.
Keep on the good works.
Yeah man, gold will not shine without passing through fire and water will not inside the forest without falling the trees down.
Success will not come without some challenges no matter what difficulties you're going through just be managing it till you scalp through of the situation.
Nice quote from you
Yes the gold goes through fire to become that precious beautiful metal,so sometimes in life the challenges we face make us become successful..
Meaning every body on earth have some series of stories to tell.
Success is not a give away stuff. It comes with sacrifices, thinking, smart work, determination to get the desired result by placing your focus.
If you want to be successful in life, hold on to this word that says.... WINNERS DON'T QUIT
QUITERS DON'T WIN......
Enjoy your day
As they say, nothing good comes quite easy. Such is the case of success. It's not handed out easily. The price has to be paid. No successful person ever made it without sacrifice, the reason we give up several things in the bid to achieve certain level of success.
It's important to also work smart and been determined i.e staying on course to that set goal no matter how difficult it might be. Resilience is one quality that put them Forbes dudes on there. They don't quit no matter the opposition.
Indeed those who quit never win. Before starting anything worthwhile, we ought to carefully be ready for it so that when them trails rear up their ugly head, one won't be consumed by rather walk through it with boldness and gazing towards the ultimate prize. Enjoy your day too man
Yeah winners should always learn to be confident and they should never give up on their dreams or goals..
You're very right man, that winners will never quit and quitters will never win.
In this case don't give up on your dream stay focus on ate goal so that it's can be achieved
Hmm this is inspiring,yeah you are right,winner should never quit..
Your blue print is everywhere mate and good one from you ,I won't stop saying good things about you or singing your good engagement and encouragement on this platform.
On the issue of success,am giving this in my own opinion,that success is a thing of the mind and it comes with lot of hard work and sacrifice too.
We should all know that it isn't something that we will get with ease as we are meant to face alot of circumstances in life,but in the cause of all this we should be focused and keep chasing our dreams
Failure to me is part of life and like I do say ,it is the best way to grant you the chance to do things in a better way in life
Just like my mother do say;
To this alone should let us know that we should keep on pushing in life and nothing should distract us from achieving our set target and goals
