Complaining is a form of communication

Have you ever complained? Ha! If you are anything like me (like I used to be) I loved complaining and being the victim, I would complain about what others have done to me, how they made me do things, yes me Zenneline Life Coach & Mentor, I complained how my spouse hurt me, how bad I was treated and yes always saying I am not innocent in all of this I had my part to play, however I got angry at my circumstances and where I was at, but all I did was complain to any one who would listen about how bad I actually had it, did it help me? NO! It just made me feel worse!

So I decided to keep quiet, I decided to STOP my complaining and change ME, change my attitude to one of GRATITUDE. I started Journaling everyday for almost a week, everyday I wrote about 10 things that I was grateful for and that changed my heart it changed my thought patterns, instead of focusing on what I didn’t have, I now focused on what I did have, which made my life pretty awesome!!

What I have found is that most often than not we blame others for our behaviours but if we want things to change for the better we are the ones standing in our own way, I realized that I was my worst enemy, I was my own GIANT and I needed to get out of my own way. It’s not easy to do that because you are at war with yourself, however when you see how it will benefit you its pretty easy to do.

I am glad I got out of my way! How about you? CAN YOU RELATE?

“Be the change you want to see!”

I THANK YOU...

Today I have this IMMENSE gratitude towards people whom I have known for a season and whom have now either removed themselves from my life with ill intentions or whom has accepted my way of ending our season. I must say I never thought that some friendship doors that I had to close were laying so heavily on my heart and it was holding me back. I do feel FREE and I am moving forward at a pace that is surprising me, ALL GLORY TO GOD! I have such gratitude towards those people who have moved on for whatever reason and I am so filled with JOY this morning that my soul cannot contain it and I want to speak a blessing over each person whom I have had the honor of knowing but who has now moved on, I pray a blessing of GREAT things to come in your life and I PRAY THAT GOD WILL SHOW YOU MIGHTY THINGS AND THAT YOU WILL STAY CLOSE TO JESUS, IN JESUS NAME,MAY YOU LATTER BE GREATER THAN YOUR FORMER, IN JESUS NAME, AMEN! Just a small ENCOURAGEMENT for those out there who is still holding onto to...

Such truth in this picture. I saw this picture message on a page I follow on Facebook and it made me think and reflect and I shared it on my page but I didn't elaborate at the time because I was still filled with negative emotions. Then this morning a friend of mine shared it on her page and these are my thoughts about this and I am referring to friendships/relationships with family and just relationships in general. So please allow me to express myself.. What is most difficult to comprehend is that we allow people to have so much space in our lives and they give so little of their time to us...It hurts immensely when you know how committed you are to certain friendships/relationships and you get absolutely the bare minimum and that fact is what is making me walk away from many. Zainonesha had this to say about it " So true...then one has to settle with lame excuses as if our lives are depending on it. Be Honest I would say" Yes I understand that we are all in dif...

Thought for the day...

When someone shares something with you in confidence don't go jumping on their issues' band wagon, don't make their issue yours, respect their issue in the way it is presented to you don't go making up your own stories because in the end the person who shared with you has made peace with it and you who has now made it your issue is just showing that you are not that "mature" to deal with the information given, examine your own heart and deal with your issue accordingly. We are all different and we deal with things differently and work through things differently so let us respect the differences, doesn't make my way right and your way wrong. It is what it is
