Expressions of Myself

Good Morning  ! One question: How comfortable are you in your own skin? I ask this question because for years I was not at all comfortable in my own skin, until I dealt with my issues. Paula White in her book "Deal With It" says that you cannot conquer that which you will not confront, how do we conquer the issues that haunt us such as self-hatred, anger, resentment, frustration, un-forgiveness th e list is endless with all these negative emotions control us. We have a choice, YOU have choice. when we give ourselves a chance, a second chance, a third chance as we do for so many others we will see how we will grow and how automatically we become available to others even more, giving of ourselves even more because we have started with ourselves and that is where the start has to start, with us, with YOU. No one is to be blamed for where YOU find yourself today, you have allowed whatever your situation is. Think about it, what role did you play to where you are today and what ca...

Good Morning Beautiful People! What an awesome weekend I had, spending time with my family and practicing my "silence". It has been great, many of you know that I have cancelled my Workshop and my mom's words were to me that it is so sad that I cancelled she's witnessed how hard I have worked on it, all is not lost. I am taking the remainder of the year for myself and my family and my business. So  watch this SPACE!! Greater things are yet to come. My encouragement for you TODAY and for the rest of the year is: Don't take the time spent with your FAMILY for granted, I have missed a lot of moments with my kids due to stuff that has happened however I am taking my time back. Don't sell yourself short, TIME is a precious commodity that once is lost, it is lost. Our kids and spouses needs us, so therefore I am putting first things first. Family is a very important part of my Values and a part of who I am. Yes I will be posting much less than what I am used to, how...

Good Morning Everyone! A blessed Eid Mubarak to all my Muslim friends  . I just have a little ENCOURAGEMENT I know once I get going I literally cant STOP myself so here goes!  I was chatting to a friend of mine last night and what I realize whilst talking is that it is difficult to take responsibility for ourselves, us as individuals because we are so focused on others and their well being, we sel dom think of ourselves it saddened me a bit, however when I chose to help myself, love myself, think kind thoughts toward myself my love jar became full and I was even more able to bestow all the above onto others... Friend CHANGE starts with you and you are WORTHY to be LOVED UNCONDITIONALLY, It does in fact START with YOU!! SO WHAT stops YOU from loving yourself? You do know that you matter,right? Well GO ON! SPEAK FONDLY about yourself and to yourself...Let your cup overflow... Have a WONDERFUL day!!

Good Morning Beautiful people! WOW!! I just read a comment on someone's status update it was Anthony Robbins Facebook update and the person commenting was very vulgar on replies to others. This got me thinking, WORDS. How do you use them? What is the second most common word you use on a daily basis? Is it "profane" (swear words) there is a scripture in the Bible that says "The mouth speaks out o f the overflow of the heart..." Luke 6:45 for me that means if you harbour a whole of negative emotions in your heart such as anger, resentment etc that is exactly what comes out of your heart and will come out of your mouth. Now I do not mean to offend anyone, this is said with a lot of love and we need to do some serious reflection on how we use words is it to tear down ourselves or others or uplift others or ourselves? Take a few minutes now and just reflect and make a deal with yourself to increase your positive and affirming words instead of negative and degrading, ...

I am busy reading Paulo Coelho book called "eleven minutes" its an AMAZING read, on sentence that has somehow stuck with me since yesterday and thought of it is : One thing that has us making hasty decisions is DESPAIR. The definition of DESPAIR in the dictionary is -To lose all hope, To be overcome by a sense of futility or defeat. Basically finding yourself at the END of your ROPE and not knowing which way to GO, you know what HELPS. Take a step back and SURRENDER it all to God, it may seem easy and I know it isnt I do also know that God is FAITHFUL and He does Help us in our time of need, so when you find yourself experiencing despair, don't feel like you are cornered just open your arms and hands and say  "Lord I surrender to YOU, You guide me and You take control!" Their is always time to change direction if you let yourself be steered by the ONE who knows where you are going and where you are meant to be...

Do you give up too easily?  Did you know that there are people who went before us and never gave up, they were rejected yet still they believed in their abilities to achieve great successes and left legacies for us to follow they have paved the way for us to follow in their footsteps and do even greater things one of those people who did not give up was Albert Einstein, not to forget Henry Ford, go on and read about them, you'll be AMAZED at how many times they failed or were rejected yet they DID NOT GIVE UP!!  So you reading this DO NOT have an EXCUSE to give up!! DON'T YOU DARE GIVE UP!! KEEP GOING AND TAKE THAT FIRST STEP. The Journey of a thousand miles started with ONE step. #KEEPMOVING

How much Value do you put on yourself? How you treat others is a true reflection of how you treat yourself. I can pay for a good quality coffee and enjoy it and know it was worth my money, but how different is that to me treating myself in buying a good book that will change my life even challenge me to deal with my issues that haunt me. Well maybe that is a stupid example my point being I will pay money for good quality coffee or a good meal from Woolworths yet you and I will think twice about attending a Conference / Workshop / Seminar to improve myself / yourself and the quality of our lives. How much do you Value your relationships? I read something this morning that said “ what you don’t value you neglect ” so it is then safe to say if I don’t VALUE myself I will neglect myself, therefore if I VALUE myself I will not neglect myself / I will take care of myself. If I don’t VALUE my relationships (friendships /spouses /Life Partners/Boyfriends) I will neglect them, so if we (...

I have been preparing for my Workshop for the past 3+ weeks and as daunting as it is I have this urgency in my spirit and I also have a sense of sadness, we live in this beautiful country South Africa and we have so much potential inside of us all, and you know what saddens me this next thought: You do not feel it in yourself that you are worth YOU investing in yourself, how sad is that? You and I  live years of our lives "dreaming", "daydreaming" and yet you and I never put our goals on paper, we put off everything that we can achieve today for tomorrow! Today is a NEW day what will it take for you to take a bold step towards your goals? What is in your control to do? Find that answer and DO IT with ALL your might!! I leave you with this thought /question: If you don't invest in yourself, how can you expect others to invest in you? Now you may be asking "what is investing in myself entail?" "what is it all about?" "What do I have to do?...
