The opposite side of fear


I strongly believe that God intentionally put all the blissful things in life on the opposite side of fear. We need to understand that our minds were designed specifically to protect us from anything that can harm us. It is this specific design that has seen a lot of ideas and dreams never manifest into reality. With the new year I feel like it is time we acknowledge all our fears and consciously choose to overcome them. Whether it is starting your own business, taking the next step in your relationship or anything else that has been a victim of your fear...take the next 12 months as the foundation to finally break down the fear barrier. Here are a few tips you can follow to help you on your journey:
  • Have a reason
    There is nothing more fulfilling than having a thing that you are so passionate about and being able to pursue it. For everything you do this year it is important that you find the anchor reason as to why you are doing it. Feel it deep in your heart that it is absolutely necessary for you to do it to the point that your current environment does not play a great role in you doing it.
  • Stop the mind games
    Every single one of us has one thing in common which is survival instinct. Any time we get into an uncomfortable situation our instincts automatically kick in to ensure survival. Our minds want us to be as comfortable as possible and any time we attempt to cross that line our mind immediately takes over and does everything in its power to stop us. Breaking free of this cycle is crucial in having a great year.
  • Follow your fear
    Marie Forleo once talked about the power of fear in achieving our goals and realising our dreams. Though it may sound contradictory, the very concept of following good fear which comes when we have a good idea or when we want to do something out of the ordinary is very helpful. Such fear is crucial for growth. The more scared we are of a work or calling, the more sure we can be that we need to do it. Feel that fear and do it anyway.

This is going to be your year. Fight to break down all fear barriers and get that which you desire the most. Crush your goals and enjoy a fruitful 2020. You are amazing, you are talented and you are the best at what you do. Be blessed and Thank God its Monday

Sweet are the uses of adversity

When things are bad it is human nature to forget that things are going to get good and when things are good it is also human nature to forget that things are most probably going to get bad. I strongly feel that the main cause or one of the main causes of stress and in time depression is not knowing what to do . When things are going really bad I believe not knowing what to do is the main cause of stress. I believe that we have all been through some level of adversity (a very unpleasant situation) and what separates us is how we react and navigate through these adversities. "Sweet are the uses of adversity , which, like the toad, ugly and venomous, wears yet a precious jewel in its head " ~ William Shakespeare. To help deal with adverse situations i have compiled a list that will help you cope better with difficult situations :  Learn to take a hit One of the most useful skills you are taught in any combat sport is how to take a blow . The reason why people end up los...

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

Image
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 ...
