Comparing Your Life To Others

Do not compare yourself to others, if you do so, you are only insulting yourself and the person God created you to be.
People's lives are way different than we imagine them to be. Those people we may assume are comfortable in life, may  actually be having difficulties on their own they may be dealing with which we may not see or they may not tell us. Sometimes they may be trying to live a fake life outside their true selves on social media and outside their private lives. And we may be envying them or  hating our present lives for nothing.
Everyone has a black spot in their white linen clothes.
So before you think or assume your life is not perfect or great, and  wish you also had a better life  that somebody's having, stop and love yourself first. No one has a perfect life. Everyone is going through a difficult time in their lives. Stop comparing your life to others. Focus on your life, work on yourself and embrace everything this life has to teach you, both good and bad.

Focus on your life!!!!!

An Attitude Of Gratitude

To have an attitude of gratitude is the greatest virtue anyone  can have. Because it shows that you are content with the little you have and a happy expectation of all you are yet to have and enjoy in life. If you really want your life to change, then you need to add the habit of  gratitude. I realised that our generation of today take the power of being grateful for granted. Because we are a generation that is burnt on having more and more everyday, we quickly lose sight of the important things we already have that is keeping our life afloat at this moment. It's almost as if each one of us is in competition with one another when it's not supposed to be so. I was born with a disability from birth, an advanced form of poliomyelitis. I had twisted hands and legs as a child so I was only able to crawl on the floor. That was my only way to move. I hated that and myself so much because I wanted to walk just like everybody else. I was consumed so much by hate and ingratitude ...

A Letter To My Daughters On Women's Day

My dear daughters, this is a big occasion for you and every woman on earth. Because the whole world has chosen to celebrate you on this day. But as you are growing, do well to remember these commandments; This life owes you nothing as a woman Neither does this world You are smart and capable on your own Earn everything you want and wish for in this life Do not take crap from anyone, whether a man or a woman Do not cry Infront of anyone who does not like you, my dear daughters, for they will laugh at you and despise you Never expect things to be easy or smooth for you just because you are a woman, everyone in this world; weak or strong have to make things happen for them before they can succeed. Remember that to make it in life, it will take much time and patience. So wear patience like an armour when things don't go well for you as you planned Be gentle,  be sweet but always remember to speak bodly, stand strong and be ready to pull up your skirts to wade through difficu...

Be a Generational Thinker

One of the greatest books I have ever read is Long Walk To Freedom by Nelson Mandela. In his book he talks about the importance of leadership through sacrifice and having a sense of responsibility to develop others as much as yourself. He is seen as an icon, a leader and a symbol of peace and inspiration, not just to his dear nation of South Africa but to the whole world. But let's ask ourselves here, what really made  Nelson Mandela such a celebrated person around the world???  Sacrifice !!!! His selfless sacrifice and desire to see white and black south Africans live in harmony together in the era of Apartheid took him to prison for 27 years. Even after his release from prison in 1990, he worked together with his haters and political opponents in the spirit of unity so that a nation which was once  divided and segregated white, black people, rich and poor people, educated and uneducated can live together as one people for the sake of his generation and generations y...
