How much do you believe in yourself, your abilities and your skills? The level of belief you have in yourself to a very greater extent determine how far and the level of success you can pile up in life.
There are days when we begin to loose trust in ourselves, what we can achieve with our acquired skills, determination and knowledge. Self doubt is bad not having a tiny bit of belief in yourself is suicidal; it kills and brings any success ahead of you to an abrupt collapse.
Being able to hold ‘self belief’ puts you just a stone away from achieving whatever you are about to tackle. Our attitude, spirit, strength and mindset channelled towards our goal determine whether there will be a realization or not.
One of my best female friends ‘Doris’ has been battling for years to conceive a child and after moving from one prayer camp to another with her husband, God finally woke up from His sleep and answered their prayers.
The few months gone has been very exciting for Doris and her husband since it has taken them almost 7 years to have their prayers heard. 7 years is really a long time to wait on God when family members would not stop throwing all sort of pins to find a mistress for the Mr.

As a patriotic Ghanaian, I detest people who make comments that seem to suggest that they do not like Ghanaian movies. Comments such as ‘I don’t watch Ghanaian movies’ and ‘I only watch foreign movies’ and the rest of such worthless comments irritate me.
Nonetheless I think that people who make such comments can’t be blamed for their stand. This is because sometimes it’s very painful to watch some of these Ghanaian movies with horrific pictures, inappropriate languages, bad sound and lots of continuity inaccuracies.
So it’s somehow prudent to concur with the people who have constantly drummed into our ears their strong aversion for movies produced in Ghana. Just imagine sitting through the entire duration of a Ghanaian movie and only to realize that, the story line is similar to several Ghanaian movies you have already watched.
Don’t get it twisted, it’s not a similar story; it’s actually the same story twisted with different casts.
Least I forget, their story lines are about love: If it’s not about someone dreaming about a lady and goes to gallivant searching for the said lady [imagine this], then it would be a man who claims to love a girl yet goes to the ladies house to insult and beat the parents.
I have been one of the ‘die hard’ fans of Yvonne Nelson who have gone all lengths to defend the talented actress since the whole ban saga came up.
Since GhanaCelebrities.Com published that the Actress has been banned, I have read and heard her in several interviews saying, she is not aware of any ban and that she has not been banned.
Several years back I tried to learn the salsa dance but did not like my experience, so I gave up that dream. I don’t think it’s for lazy dancers like ‘myself’. Let me continue to enjoy my ‘Kpanlogo’ dance. Citizen Kofi Entertainment Centre recently launched a weekly event to enable patrons explore Latin Culture without … Read more
Ghanaian Actress Yvonne Nelson who is currently serving a year ban which she has on several platforms claimed not to be aware of has apologized to those concern with the hope that, her ban would be lifted. You can click here to read about the apology.
The first question I asked myself when I heard of the ban was that; why serve 9 months out of 12 with a hard heart and then at the last minute, go on your knees to apologize for what you have over the months stated you did not do.
I reached out to an insider from Yvonne Nelson’s camp I had previously spoken to this week about the ‘Return Of Yvonne Nelson’ to find out what were the reasons behind the sudden and late hour apology.
Sexy Ghanaian Actress Yvonne Nelson, who was banned from acting in Ghana and Nigeria last year October for misconducting herself on set, whiles shooting “4play Reloaded”, has finally subdued herself and rendered an official apology to producer Abdul Sallam Mumuni of Venus Films Productions and the Film Regulatory Council.
After about 9 months of redundancy and absent from the silver screen, the actress has finally decided to swallow her pride and reconcile with the producer who brought her into the movie industry. In a letter dated 14th June 2011, addressed to the President of the Film Regulatory Council, Yvonne expressed sincere regret for her actions and apologized to producer Alhaji Abdul Sallam Mumuni, members and executives of Film Producers Association of Ghana (FIPAG) and the entire film community in Ghana.
“. I render an unqualified apology for any embarrassment that my conduct might have caused anybody. I promise such a behavior will not repeat itself again”, Yvonne’s letter stated.
In the initial stages when the issue of banning the actress came up, she quietly when to Abdul Sallam’s private residence to apologize but Abdul Sallam refused to accept her apology and asked her to organize a press conference or render a public apology on radio, TV or any other public platform before he will accept her apology but the tall actress refuse.
This is a short one but hope it gets to be published. I am beginning to put dotted lines together to come out with a clear picture in relations to ‘what is common between Confidence, Mimi and Delay as far as Dogs are concerned’ since all these entertainment personalities in recent weeks have shown their strong affiliation to dogs.
Delay is said to be carrying around a certain dog she claims has the net worth of $2000. The dog is like her close pal and probably more, I mean her working mate.LOL. It maybe that she just loves dogs but then Delay’s friend Mimi was also recently in news for having 7 Dogs. Two much of a coincidence to my thinking.
Ghanaian-born Hollywood actors Kwame Boateng, Kofi Siriboe and Kwesi Boakye, also known as the K-3 Brothers will be the Children’s Village Ambassadors for a literacy program to support reading in the African American community on Saturday, June 25 at Los Angeles, California.
Although born in America to the same parents, each of these brothers bears a name that pays homage to their royal Ghanaian roots. The talented young siblings have already forged impressive acting careers in movies and television, and they continue to impress critics and fans alike with their dynamism.
I have a lot of respect for the Grandpapa of Hiplife but then, that does not mean I should let this slip. Recently, Rihanna who is probably 23 years old was blasted and criticised by various urban Entertainment blogs and other media platforms for using the words ‘F**k You C**t’ on twitter.

A loyal GC reader ‘Miyagi’ just sent me a link to the article below written by Joy Ocloo, an incredible loud mouth from Leila Djansi’s camp on a Nigerian website.
The article suggests inter alia that, there is some sort of animosity between Leila Djansi and ‘myself’ plus probably GC and its readers are part of why Nia Long could not make it for their movie. I thought this story was long dead…
In fact, I have moved on and I am enjoying my blogging life. I do not have time to host any sort of animosity for anyone so if Joy Ocloo is saying this, then maybe it is her and Leila Djansi that have gotten an inside for me.
This is a complete bullshyt, why would I care? I am stating it firmly here that, those in Leila Djansi’s camp thinking there is an animosity should get over it and take some chill pill because I am focusing and have no time!
