It's the little things

So there is this idea that was brought forward about the "Butterfly effect" where its proposed that a single butterfly flapping its wings weeks earlier could cause enough change in the air flow to cause a tornado. This theory sounds ridiculous but the more I thought about it the more I started to see the truth in it. So the idea here is one small action repeatedly done would grow in terms of its impact on the world of the person repeating that action. So in other words it is the small consistent things that are repeatedly done that  will help you achieve your goal. One would even go on to say you should not focus much on the end goal but rather on the habits that will allow you to reach that end goal.

  • Be exceptional always
    In all things you do whether big or small it is always important to give it your all and ensure that whatever product you are bringing out is the best of what you have to offer. The amazing things about always aiming to be exceptional is that people notice your commitment and hard work. which in turn would show them the kind of person you are and they will always have you at the back of their mind. Always aiming to be exceptional means that you and your work will always be a cut above the rest.


  • Guard your passion
    Well everyone is extremely passionate about at least on thing in their lives. It is this single minded passion that makes them wake up in the morning and be ready to work tirelessly until they achieve what they want to achieve. Protecting your passion and vision from all the negative verbal obstacles placed in front of your by the society is very important. Whatever it is that you are passionate about, needs to be protected and kept alive.
  • Start serving others
    There is just this unexpected wave of joy and peace that comes from helping others or attending to their needs. It is just a warm feeling which can only come when you choose to think about someone else other than yourself for once. The beauty about serving others is that it keeps you humble because you will be able to walk in the other person's shoes even if it is for a short period. Regularly serving others is a fulfilling activity which is good for your mental well being.


  • Manage your time better
    I have saved the best for last and in this case it is the best indeed. Time management is one of the most important concepts one is taught in business management. Time is so important that when one is setting goals, time should play a huge role in that goal setting. It is especially important to be able to manage your time do that you get the most out of your 24 hours. Make a schedule and stick to it. The trick however is to create a schedule that does not enslave you and leave in worse shape than you were before. Create a schedule that is easy to follow and allows you to complete the most important tasks during the day. 


I believe that one small action done repeatedly will have a much greater impact than when it is just done in isolation. Continue working hard towards your goals and remain consistent to see the small changes that it will make in your life. Start off by cleaning and tidying up your area of habitation and you will see the effects of any small action. Have a blessed week and Thank God its Monday

Sweet are the uses of adversity

Image
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 ...
