Learning to Wait

Sometimes you have to wait on yourself. Some parts of you might be ready while others may not. Remember that every part needs to find some balance in order for you to accomplish your goal.

How to Know Your True Friends

Sometimes you think you know who your true friends are. Failure is not the only test of sincerity. Success is also a great one. If they can't applaud your success sincerely then who are they to you? Remember that a dangerous snake is the one who hides in the long grass.

The Beginning of the End

Have you ever had moments when you were at the end of something and you didn't see it coming? Well there's a difference between preparation and expectation. Enjoy the moments as time flies by and you move on into another chapter of life but don't forget to prepare for the next.

Success and the People on the Way

At the end of the day, you won't necessarily remember every little thing you did to succeed. You might likely remember the relationships you had...the ones you built and the ones you broke. Caring for people is a part of successful living so make sure you have that healthy element in your life too. Now don't use and abuse people...be sincere.

The Will to Improve

In order to improve you have to first acknowledge that you need to. Don't be afraid to work on your weaknesses with those who have strengths in such areas. You will be surprised when you realize that some of the most successful people are where they are because they turned their weaknesses into strengths. You just have to be wise so that you know the difference between persistence and moving on when it comes to sharpening your skill in a certain area.

The Power of One Yes

The power of 1 yes is underestimated often. Sometimes all it takes is 1 yes from someone to help you reach your destination.

What Are You Doing With Your Life?

Are you that kind of person who just enjoys celebrating when others succeed? Like you are so good at figuring out what great things have happened to those in your immediate circle or even celebrities like Kimye...mmm. What about you? What are you doing?  You are just so busy criticizing others. Well you might want to take a step back and start doing your thing and minimize being an unpaid critic lol.

To the Mother working 5 Jobs

It's late at night. It's early in the morning. It's mid-afternoon. You don't even stop to take a break. You refuse to rest unless it's necessary. You think about your children, your parents, and everyone who needs you. The vision you have for them is what gives you every ounce of energy needed from your first job to the fifth job that you all get done in a week.

Wasting Your Life

Don't waste your life doing what others say you ought to do in order to succeed. Live your life by your own rules. You don't want to find out that you were living a lie when it's too late. Only you can define what success means to you.

Battling Your Daily Fears

Have you ever thought you would never succeed at something? Don't let what you see and hear discourage you. Be brave and battle your fears daily.

How to Accomplish Your Big Goals

Have you ever wanted to get done so badly that you never started? If that sounds like you then you are over ambitious and that's okay. You just have to know how to use your strong sense of achievement to actually get stuff done. Don't waste your time planning...begin to do something even if it is a bit at a time.

How to Overcome Failures

What makes you think you are not better than them?

Who told you that you can't do what many have done?

Who or what is not the whole question...the question is what will you now do about it?

The Dangers of Jealousy

Why don't you celebrate when someone succeeds? Why do you get mad when someone gets what you have wanted for so long. Life is weird with its ups and downs and jealousy is not the way to go. It will just pull you down where you don't want to be. Learn to celebrate others success and it will make your life better even if for a second as you rid yourself of your selfishness.

Overcoming Pity and Entitlement

Do you ever feel like the world owes you something? Are you always looking for pity when you are trying to succeed? The truth is that some people might feel sorry for you and empathize and help you out. The other huger majority may never understand you intentionally or unintentionally. So wash your eyes and refuse to view yourself through the eyes of self-pity and self-entitlement because I have not yet seen anyone who got somewhere meaningful by embracing the two.

Getting Over the Fear of Failure and Success

Some of us are so so scared to do anything because we think that losing or winning is too risky. Risk will follow you anywhere even if your sitting on the sofa like a potato. Stagnance is not worth it. Dust yourself and get up and make yourself move beyond fear.

Falling is Normal...Get up Now

We need to be able to celebrate our accomplishments no matter what others may expect. We need to decide to get up. There is no use wallowing on the floor about how much time, energy, and resources we invested during our first attempt at something. So when you ever find yourself down just remember that getting up is an option. Don't stay down there.

Trying again and again

Who said trying something again is failure? Who said your first try should be your last try? What and who puts these messages in our minds? A lot of successful people did not always get their desired results the first time but thank God they tried again and again or else the world would lack a lot of things that we really treasure and enjoy. So go and try again....do that which you vowed to do once.

Success and your mind

Have you ever been told or told someone, "You have everything you need to succeed"? Well whether you have or haven't there is some truth to this statement. A lot of things that happen or do not happen to us tend to test our responses to life while teaching us lessons. But don't forget to have fun in your quest for success in any area of your life. No one knows all the rules of life but it does help to try to apply what worked for others and see if it works for you too.

 

The art of advice

There are times people share things with you. Sometimes all they want is just a listening ear. Not everyone wants to hear advice. So just take it slow. Listen and listen real good. Then you will know what to say, as there is a time for everything. And you will know when your advice is needed, and then you can share it in the most empathetic manner possible. Happy week!
 

Reaping and sowing

Some people say it's karma and some say it's just a law of life. Either way we ought to know that we have to keep an eye on what are we putting in ourselves. We just have to be careful also because sometimes the way that others treat us is a reflection of ourselves. Great weekend!
