This is what I want to become…. That is what she wants to do… He aspires to….
They do nothing. Nothing different, nothing more than where they are at now.
Will anything change?
IF WE REMAIN WHAT WE ARE, WE CANNOT BECOME WHAT WE WANT.

GRATITUDE –
BIG WORD BUT WITH A GENTLE MEANING.
IT SIMPLY MEANS THE CONSCIOUS PRACTICE
IN THE PRESENT OF
RECOGNISING AND APPRECIATING
THE GOODNESS IN YOUR LIFE.
SIMPLE.

In your quest to achieve your goals, you could drive yourself or push the envelope to attain them.
You may forget to savour the moments of success along the way, getting there. Even with these multiple little successes that add up, you may find stress and tensions building up within you.
You may find yourself sprinting in a marathon race. It’s normal.
Take a short break. Take stock of what you’ve achieved so far, and what else needs to be done.
Remind yourself of why you are doing it for. Picture yourself at the Finish Line. Enjoy yourself.
There’s more of a story to tell about what you did to achieve it, than, after having achieved it.

LIFE SEEMS TO BE A CONSTANT CLASSROOM. EVERYTHING IN LIFE COMES TO YOU AS A TEACHER.
EACH MOMENT SEEMS TO HAVE AT LEAST ONE LESSON FOR YOU TO LEARN.
EACH OF THOSE MOMENTS,
YOU HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO APPLY WHAT YOU LEARN.
PAY ATTENTION.
LEARN QUICKLY.

YOUR MIND WILL BELIEVE WHAT YOU TELL IT.
TELL IT THAT YOU ARE THANKFUL FOR WHAT YOU HAVE.
TELL IT YOU ARE SMART AND AMBITIOUS,
THAT YOU ARE ALMOST THERE IN ACHIEVING
ALL THAT YOU SET OUT TO DO.
TELL YOUR MIND THAT YOU ARE FEARLESS AND BRAVE IN ENSURING THAT YOU DO ACHIEVE ALL THAT
YOU SET OUT TO DO.

An awe-amazing start of Father’s Day – with family. I remember the first day I became a father – What a privilege and honour it was then…and is still now…even more…
Here’s wishing my father, my brothers, brothers-in-law, all fathers in the family, and all fathers (including my classmates and schoolmates from school)
HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!
A RECOGNITION THAT IS WORTH IT’S RECOGNITION.
