You are one decision away from a different life

There are times where we often feel as if whatever it is that we are doing is not enough. These times usually come when we fail to reach a certain goal or attain a certain milestone and we feel powerless. It is human nature to get disappointed in our own shortcomings. In my view it all boil down to one life changing decision which is to take yourself seriously and actually taking time to discover yourself. This one decision brings you closer and closer to your true purpose and narrows down what you ought to do in life. After making the decision to look within yourself to find yourself, there are a few things you can do to help you on your path of self discovery :

  • Trust in your ideas
    On average, the human mind is capable of coming up with close to half a dozen ideas on how to become a better person mentally physically and financially every single day. Pure human instinct is survival and your mind is hard wired to ensure survival by any means. There are a lot of things you have always wanted to do to advance your career, improve your qualifications or even start your own business. Trust your survival instinct and pursue those ideas  and give yourself a fighting chance.

  • Develop a positive attitude
    "As a man thinketh so is he" ~ King Solomon (Proverbs 23 vs 7). This has to be the most powerful piece of advice anyone can ever receive. These are words from presumably the wisest man to ever walk the face of the planet. He understood the importance of the mind in human destiny and progression of life. Feed your mind with positivity all the time, feed it with words of encouragement, feed it with plans of a great future and assuredly it will be all you think about. Create your own ideal world and future in your mind and act upon it and your will find the best version of yourself.

  • Value addition
    Any good business consultants will tell you how crucial it is to present yourself as a source of value in people's lives. The same applies to your own self image, developing your skills and attributes makes you a person of value. It is near impossible to look past people of value and much like any good products out there, people are willing to pay for value addition so live a life where you are seen as a person of value
  • Passion is energy
    If you cant figure out your purpose find your passion for your passion will lead you to your purpose. Purpose is the one thing guaranteed to stay with you for the duration of your life. The bad thing is that not living your purpose will rob you of your happiness and it will haunt you for the rest of your life. Focus on the things that excite you most and get your blood boiling for a more fulfilling life.
This is going to be yet another fruitful week for you, remember you are amazing and you are the best at what you do. Ask yourself what ideas have been stocked up in your head and how best you can act upon them. Give yourself time to look within yourself and find out who you really are and what you are meant to do.  Work on developing your skills this week and Thank God its Monday.

The horse is made ready for the day of battle

" The horse is made ready for the day of battle, but victory rests with the LORD " ~ King Solomon(Proverbs 21 vs 31).This is a verse I got from my little brother during one of our family devotions and it really got me thinking. In ancient times the horse was considered one of the finest beasts man could ever own and use for his/her personal use. Before it was used for agricultural purposes it was mostly used for transportation and for war as the soldiers would ride atop of it into battle. The horses were readied for battle a day or 2 prior to battle so that when the day arrives they are in perfect shape and would prove to be an advantage to their owners. King Solomon however knew something that a majority of people didn't know, that we may have the finest horses but victory rests or lies with the Lord. This to me means that before there is even a victory the horses need to be made ready for the battle and this allows the victory to rest with the Lord because we wo

Value your identity

Our past as many would argue is always going to be a huge part of our life. The sad part is a majority of the memories we remember are those in which our lives were at an all time low. This can be a certain failure, heartbreak or some other catastrophic event. Continuously replaying such events unintentionally molds us into the people we are and would result in loss of confidence, depression and just a general lack of purpose or value in life. If these things don't shape us then the constant criticism we receive from friends and family molds us unfortunately. A number of people are the way they are simply because of what was said or what happened to them that they can not let go of. Holding on to such negative emotions not only has its toll on your emotional and mental well  being but it also has some effect even on your physical well being. The most powerful thing in the world is to be consistent with the thoughts values that you believe to be true about you . In my view identity

If not now then when

I feel like this week's article is a sequel to the one from last week because I have the same thought process and emotion as I did last week in relation to just starting on whatever it is you want to start on. I have had times where my mind has just been rich with potentially scalable project ideas which would not only benefit me but also those around me. The reason why none of you have heard about these projects is because all of them are still waiting for something to happen first before they can take off. Bear in mind the biggest dream killers are procrastination and the search for perfection. Procrastination is is the action of delaying or postponing something. So basically everyday you say I will start tomorrow or next week Monday for no clear reason then you my friend are slowly turning into a consistent procrastinator but it doesn't have to be like that. Like I always say...the reason why you never do things is because your brain is always trying to keep you safe and com
