THE BEST THING TO DO!

Image
Paying attention to something you do not want and cannot do anything about is not helpful! The best thing to do is to stay focused on being positive no matter the negative news trending in the world! I remember in 2014, during the ebola outbreak, I was heavily pregnant, and you know how pregnancy hormones do not help with negative news at all!  I am a very clean person and I do not joke with my hygiene at all. But can you imagine the extra carefulness and hygiene I had to put up with because of ebola? I got so exhausted with the fear of ebola. It got to a point that if I mistakingly shook someone or touched someone or anything at all, I would not be myself the whole day until I used almost half of my disinfectant for a very thorough bath. It was so terrible! The alarming part was that every corner I went to was all about ebola news. If you were not talking about ebola or you were not up to date about ebola, you are seen as irresponsible. Everybody wanted to trend with the ...

BE GRATEFUL! LIFE IS ALREADY BEAUTIFUL!

We all go through difficult times, but no matter how bad things seem, there is always plenty to be thankful for- so so much to be grateful to GOD for! Remember how far you have come. Remember the good "things" that life has brought to you. You can't tell me that your life has been all misery, can you? Take a moment and remember, and you will be amazed how much life has given to you. So be grateful. Be thankful!  Remind yourself now and again how beautiful life is and then, write them down. That is one of the ways I remind myself how so kind life has treated me, in spite of whatever challenge I might have faced or am facing.  There is a deep assurance that you feel whenever you read out your blessings! All you feel is gratitude! And a grateful heart attracts more blessings! So friend, affirm that life is already beautiful even before you have your heart desires met!

MAKE YOUR UPSIDE LIST!

Are you caught up in between two options?  For example, you got a new job offer that has some good things about it, yet have some things you do not love? While on the other hand, you have your current job which has its benefits as well, yet some things you do not love?  Truth be told, the situation can be very overwhelming if you have been in such situation before or you are currently facing such situation.  Well, I have good news for you! You do not need to be overwhelmed anymore. Here is what works(ed) for me and I thought I should share with you. All you need is to do the following:  Write down the upsides of each option you are considering- pay attention only on the upsides and give no thought to the down sides!  Combine the two lists together to make it one list, then hand it over to the KING OF THE UNIVERSE!  Believe that you have whatever you are willing to allow! Choose all the upside and never the downside and it shall be so for you...

BEHIND OUR SMILE! BRAVO SINMI, THIS IS A GREAT PIECE. AND I JUST SHARED IT TO THE WORLD!

Sometimes, I browse through people's profile on Facebook, and I almost felt jealous ...as a matter of fact I do. Everybody seems to look so cute, so satisfied and accomplished. And then, I go ahead to check out their info and am like, so GREEN with ENVY. Why? It is because they seem to have it all; the perfect face, job, guy/girl, statistics, words etc.  And then, I get exhausted and I ask myself, "shouldn't I be doing something better?" Many unread books are wailing in my book shelf, I have to prepare for a professional exam, my blog is screaming SMS (save my soul), life is moving on and moving fast, I have a lot of thinking to do about the 'what' and 'how' of my plans ...so so much to do.  However, I still appreciate the time I spend either facebooking or browsing through people's info, photos and pages. Reason is because, it is not only a time to keep up with family, friends and foes, it is a reflective time. Everybody seems to be happ...

HAPPY GOOD FRIDAY FRIENDS!

The death of our LORD JESUS marked the beginning of our victory over sin, the enemy! So today isn't about wearing a long face and feeling sober; it is a day of thanksgiving, victory, joy, laughter. If the enemy knew that crucifying our LORD will bring his doom, he would not have gone that far. But it was predestined to be, so that you and I would be brought back to GOD'S loving arms without fear of judgement.  Let us rejoice and be thankful for this great sacrifice that brought us victory and made us heirs to the Kingdom of GOD. 

FOCUS ON YOUR TOMORROW!

Focus on your tomorrow and all that you would love to become. Isn't it best that you channel your energy towards talking about your future, instead of going over your past every now and then? Some people think that they would be justified when  they keep robbing their pasts on their faces. Listen friend, there is no justification in visiting your past, only self pity and guilt. You have all that it takes to become the best that GOD created you to be! It is all inside of you. Remember, what you feel, you attract! Instead of feeling pain and guilty, feel love, joy and every good thing that you desire!
