Reflections

 Dear Diary This is a picture of myself that I took in 2014 or 2015. I just know it was in the season of me being single at the time. This was the time I had already told myself that I will never get married one day.  In fact, that was the decision I have made and sticked to it. I never knew that what I decided did not occur as I have planned because in 2018, I got married to the most wonderful, caring, loving husband.  God really had His plan laid out long before time. If I never had faith before, my faith grew so strong of seeing God working things the moment my focus shifted from what I want and how I plan things but instead make God the first most important priority in my life. This picture reflects such joy in my eyes. But that season it was not a joyous time at all. So much pain and hurt are hidden behind this smile. So much bad choices that I have made during this time in my life, and I am thankful it did happen because really prepared me and trained me for the per...

Moving out of the comfort!

It  is scary moving from the known into the unknown. It is scary moving from the comfort into the uncomfortable. We don't also like the new things to come at a speed we cannot handle eventhough we asked for something different. Sometimes we get what we asked for or prayed for but what if you feel totally out of your depth. You have no idea about the environment, the conditions and ways to go about it. But still you take a step everyday towards getting into the deep.  It is in this moments when one discover the true reason you were made on earth in the first place. We can only grow under pressure. Pure gold are formulated under excessive fire and it has to withstand the heat to come out as pure gold. How much more will you and me be tested to step out of the fear path and step right into the next.  We have no idea how it will end or where it will take us but with Jesus Christ in your boat you can be certain ,it will go into the right direction.  Neve fear ...

Necessity of stretching

Stretching are those exercises that are done before you go for a jog, a walk, playing a soccer game or any other physical activity. It can be damaging to your muscles when you do not do the necessary stretching exercises before the physical exercise. You will always feel the pain in your muscles the next day after a physical test or an exercise program. We tend to skip the stretching parts which are so important for longevity of life. The less you become active the more your muscles pull back and are not easily moveable as you become older in your age. The purpose of stretching is to minimise discomfort after an intense work-out or physical activity. In the same way that our body need stretching to maintain its agility in movement, the same way we need to be stretched spiritually, professionally and on a personal level. Our bodies are introduced to new movements during the physical stretches and in the same way our perspectives on life, belief systems and career paths can also be s...

Fight vs Flight

In a boxing match there is usually two people who are getting into a ring to battle against each other for a prize. There can only be one winner. During this time the fight and flight impulses kick in. One will constantly opt to fight (remain standing or getting up) or to flight (remain on the ground and give up). Are you currently facing a fight or flight situation? It can be anything from: ·                      Should I continue with the studies when it seems impossible? ·                      Must I stay in this relationship even if it brings so much tears? ·                        How do I keep the peace in the family? ·                      Do I keep working under bad working conditions? ·      ...

Trust the process

Do you feel like giving up on what you started?  This can  be a book you start writing, starting your own business, starting a vlog or blog, working on your finances. This can be anything you recently embarked on. There comes a time when things don’t work out the  way you always planned.  Maybe there is no interest in what you are selling, writing or making videos about but time will come when you will be noticed. Not because of who you are but because of the total impact you will be making in the world. We sometimes want to give up in the middle but it is there where all the pressing, molding, shaping happens. Things around us may look as if there is no changes happening. The environment that you are familiar with seems like there is no development in but it is where small changes do occur.  It is there where small victories are won even if you don’t see it. We should keep our eyes on the main goal we started with in the first place.  It is in this times w...

Every day counts

 Every day is an opportunity Do you feel that you have come to your end of searching for better things or oppertunities? Maybe you have been looking in all places but without any progress. Its difficult not to get what you are actually looking for. Its also sad to stop looking for what you want. How bad do you want to develop or make things better for yourself? It can be that you feel that you are too old now to dream still.  It doesn’t matter what you think or how you feel but with breathe still in you , you have an opportunity to try again. It is not always easy to dust yourself off after you fell, but that is the only way you will be able to move forward. Do not be so comfortable in what you have now ,whilst you are entitle to so much more. Stop watching other people's successes and feel you will never get there.  Each person's journey is different. They also had their difficulties but because of perserverance and commitment they have pushed through. People who look as...

Create your destiny

Have you ever wonder why certain things dont turn out the way you wished?.  The reason is that you did nothing to fulfill it. Could it be that you just have wishful thinking?. That you wish to be someone , have something, become someone one day but you do nothing about it?. Life is what you make out of it. What you create is what you will get. If you want to have a   house full of joy, laughter, happiness you should create the atmosphere. If you want to have an enjoyable work environment, you should create one.  Nothing will just be the way you wish it to be. What is the areas that you wish to see some changes in?. Here are ways to create what you want: 1.  Begin your day with positive self  affirmations. Speak good words over yourself such as " I am loved", I have joy, I will win today". This way you are setting the pace for the whole day. 2.  Start your day with prayer and bring all your plans and desires before the Lord God of the whole universe....
