If he has anger issues, don’t marry him!

If someone overreacts or throws tantrums when you’re dating, drop them like a hot potato. You don’t qualify to be their personal psychiatrist. Don’t cheat yourself that you will change them.

It takes two peaceful individuals for marriage to work. Don’t inherit extreme historical baggage. One should be at peace within before living with others. It’s anger and pride that break relationships. There’re issues and offenses in marriage. Marriage runs on the backdrop of humility and emotional stability.

If issues develop when you’re already married, then you have a responsibility to work on your marriage. Your partner, your choice. But don’t step into marriage with conspicuously irreparable issues. The purpose for dating is to gather data whether to proceed with the dude you’re seeing. It’s easier to live with a cheat than with someone with anger problems.

Of course, we all get angry. I’m talking about someone who totally loses control of himself. Someone who shouts at you or threatens to hit you when dating is not worth your hand in marriage.

The Artistic Mind of a Criminal

I used to have a client who is a professor when it comes to art, paintings and antiques. He paints one portrait and makes millions out of it and that really fascinated me so much that I started doing some research into the Art, paintings and antiques industry. I discovered that the painting industry in Ghana is very small and young but elsewhere in the world, it is a huge industry which contributes significantly to the economy of these countries. The USA economy in 2014 and 2015 benefited US$730 billion and US$763.6 billion respectively from the Art, Paintings and Antiques sector(1). US$12 billion (£9.2 billion) was contributed to the UK GDP in 2016 from the Art and Painting sector(2) with Singapore’s Art and Painting contributing S$2.13 billion to the GDP in 2013(3).
