For the past years you have been setting your goals and writing down your resolutions but to no avail.
Probably just a few did come to pass, yet the most waited ones are still stagnant and taking time to their fulfilment.
In life we go through different phases that breaks and makes us at the same time.
We face some difficulties that we can even wonder if we will get through it. It’s all up to what we feed our minds and selves with; our way of living can not function well when our mental health is not in good state.
Now that you know your triggers, what hinders you from living well, you must master your inner peace.
Create a space of disappoint so that when things go off the way you did not expected them to, at list the pain will not excruciates you in a manner that bounds your well-being.
That’s the most vital aspect you should master in your in life because everything begins in the spirit before it manifests in the physical life.
Our lives should be guided and rooted by the word of God; it shouldn’t be just but a must.
Pray and let God know your worries and weaknesses because by posting them on social media will be a freely exposure of your weakness and it doesn’t help you, it actually worsens the situation, especially when you fail to get the attention you will be looking for.
Let this year be for you and God, be patient and give Him time.
Let your knees always stay close to the ground for prayers, no one can satisfy or heal your spirit except the one who created you.
We all encounter moments that we can be vulnerable, to the extent that we need someone to talk to. I encourage you to be wise by knowing who to share the deeper things of your life, we are now living in a world where people take advantage of one’s vulnerability using it to their own benefit.
I have witnessed betrayals in friendships and associations, people are not what they seem to be.
Prior to that you are what you surround yourself with, therefore its not health to carry some relationships that drains and devalues you, instead of them transforming and challenging you to be a better person they worsen your situation.
Learn to love yourself so that when you master the art of loving yourselves you will know the difference between attention and deep love. Set your boundaries and prioritise your safety, get to know people first, enquire well about them before you take them in your space to avoid misconceptions.
This year try to educate yourself in new things be it a degree, course or attending master classes, the advantage of doing it is that, they increase your growth and self-worth.
At the same time those are the places you can meet the people who can change your way of viewing life, as well as experiencing life changing opportunities. Read life changing books, try to avoid being on social media 24/7 for pleasure but using your data for getting information that makes you better, than losing another year by being aware of every story in the streets.
Be skilful in your craft, try to bring new ideas to your business, attend seminars get helped and see where you’re lacking because information can serve you from unnecessary disappointments you keep on enduring by being lazy to adapt in a learning environment through ignorance and too much excuses.
Always be positive and be expectant of good things.
