You are both being and becoming at the same time. A portion of your reality is not merely what is, it includes what you imagine that your life can be.
The stronger your desire for what can be, the more you are motivated to change. The more you perceive that what you desire is possible, the more choices you make in favor of that envisioned future. When that vision is compelling, it pulls your tomorrow into your today.

Prepare, Posture, Position, Arise, & Be Wise!

Time- life. Seed-harvest

It is important that you realize time waits for no one. If you do not do what you ought to

do at a given time or should I say if you do not seize the opportunity when given then do not be alarmed at the outcome in the future.

I am saying this because more than ever before I have come to the conclusion that whatever you sow you will surely reap. Let's come down to earth.... How can you say you are looking to be financially free yet you have nothing doing with your hands. How can you say you want to be productive yet you've never for one day sat down to plan and write out a vision to run with. At what point would financial freedom or productivity set in? I find that most times we are mentally lazy and easy to settle for a mediocre life style

Nowadays we see people who do not know what it means to be a friend, what it means to care for someone, what it means to intercede for a loved one. People no longer go out of their way for others, some do not value other people's act of kindness, some stay financially indebted to others even though they are capable of servicing the debt instead they risk loosing a good relationship which was once founded on trust. Time waits for no one, eventually your investments good or bad would come to maturity so do not be alarmed when responses become cold, when that friend takes you only on face value, when your words can't be taken to the bank, or when others do not see the need in going out of their way for you. There is no other way to say this, time waits for no man if so invest wisely that you may presently see what your harvest would look like in the future.

Now please do me a favor....look around you. Yes do so now. Who do you see? Your boss, colleague, friend, wife , child, husband, mother, father, sibling, employee, employer?
....A time would come when they would not be there...ask yourself if you've invested rightly in their lives. What are you presently doing or not doing? Are you taking them for granted or are you taking advantage of their gentle disposition or simple nature. Know that there are principles or laws that play a vital part in life irrespective of whom you are dealing with and those laws stand supreme. Clearly such a law is that of seed time and harvest.

........there is always a better way!

Walls have ears.
Trust is earned and respect too
You may deserve to have something but not everything is expedient.

A heart felt SMS to a couple expecting a baby.....

Am sure by now you guys are counting days. Am so happy for you both .
Please try and be there for eachother as often as possible. With a child coming in, it's not a matter of who is right or wrong it's a matter of working hand in hand for the good of your child. You guys are a team. In all you do know that your life is about to change but don't fret.
Please always talk to eachother. Whenever you feel neglected communicate this to one another. Don't let yourself go. Be there for yourselves.A Couple's Guide to Communication

Where to ?

Be careful how you treat others. It's a matter of time and soon they will eventually be in a position you never envisaged.

You are one with your words so endeavor to weight your conversation before speaking. Often I play( in my head )possible ways a conversation would go before I start what I can't finish. Try it !

Never think you know it all. You can learn even from a new born babe. My daughter is presently teaching me how to be a mother. Certainly I'll be better when her other siblings come along. Take the hint! You can learn from a cow too!

'Go where you are celebrated'... so my husband says to me. Listen to me people gravitate towards warmth and affection so learn to celebrate people irrespective of their class in society maybe that way you 'll make friends or better still loyalists.

Only a fool refuses corrections. If you are corrected (never always pleasant and may hurt our pride or ego ) thank heavens for the opportunity eventually the fool gets caught in his web. You for one would have saved yourself.

Breathe.......

Consider breathing for once.
Consider breathing to calm yourself
Just breathe.
I said breathe, it does work!


When you breathe you concentrate on your thoughts
That is why when you breathe you don't talk
When you are not talking I do hope you are thinking
And while thinking I do hope your eyes are opened to make observations
In observing we read body language...emmm I hope you 've not stopped thinking.

You see, if you talk as much try cutting down what you say and think twice as much as you talked....
Did it work?
Were you able to achieve more?
Often times our expression alone speaks louder than we can ever say
Eventually the message is passed across without the damaging effect of the tongue


Now don't get me wrong, there is a time for everything.
The trick is to know when to talk and to know when to breathe.
Choose wisely......


..there is always a better way

what if ?

If we only take a moment to be quiet and observe the things around us.

If we only decide not to complain but learn from every given situation.

If we only understand everyone has their opinion and would like it to be appreciated.

if only we maintain a good attitude towards life we will eventually see the positive and not the negative each time we look into the mirror.

If we only say 'am sorry', 'I love you deeply','thank you', 'forgive me'. 'Please' the response we receive may be different.

WHAT IF?
