DON'T SETTLE FOR LESS 102

Image
People settle for mediocrity in many aspects of their lives on a daily basis. We accept jobs we hate, we deal with friends who let us down and we let our significant others get away with stupid things. Why do people choose to be complacent instead of moving where there are better opportunities? “It's easier sometimes to be stuck in a familiar rut or habit, albeit a depressing one, than to look outside the habit and have a life that is more desirable.” -anonymous People are terrified of change, failure and taking risks. This is one of the main reasons people settle in life. It’s not about unrealistic goals or perfection. It is about changing the things you can to be happy, not simply drifting along in life and complaining. It is far easier to settle than it is to leave our comfort zone. I’ve made mistakes in my life. I’ve let people take advantage of me and I’ve accepted way less than I deserve. But, I’ve learned from my bad choices and even though there are some things I c

INSECURITIES IS LIFE

Not feeling good enough has been an issue with me since i was a kid, and i fimd the older i get, the harder it becomes to deal with these things. Being a woman, we're naturally born to be more sensitive, to have those extra insecurities, and feel every word sometimes deeper than they were intended. When i was a child up until now, i have lots of insecurities be it in the face, talents, knowledge and of course, having a complete family. That's really my weakest part in my self. I cried because i couldn't have what others has. Maybe because i was a child back then? But why is it up until now i am crying for the same reason over and over again?  When you have feelings of insecurity, you doubt yourself and your abilities to cope with a problem or situation, or you fear a negative outcome. Insecurity is really the feelings that result from low self confidence.  So what can you do then if you feel insecure? I think that addressing the problem is very important as insecur

ADULTING 102

"When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me." -- 1 Corinthians 13:11 Do you always feel like you are always tired and just wanted to sleep all day? Would you rather choose to sleep instead of going outside? Do you also feel excited when holiday is coming because that means you have more time to rest and of course to sleep? Well then, welcome to adulthood. There is no clear determinant for determining when a person becomes an adult, Some say it's when you turn eighteen others say it's when you get your drivers license. One thing is for sure though to become an adult you must be mature and ready to take on the world. Being an adult means achieving a separate identity, being able to support your self and/or your family financially, and being able to provide yourself with a house or a place to call home. This means to be an adult you must become independent so that

FRIENDSHIP NEVER DIES

Image
Friendship begins at "Hi and Hello" and being casual to each other until you get comfortable and not shy anymore towards each other. Having a friend is really an advantage as an individual we had something to share things inevitably. Someone we can lean on in our weak days. And someone who would insult you at some point. And lastly someone we can trust on. They are someone you can call in the middle of the night and vent to, or just talk.  There are many valuable things in life, but friendship may be one of the most important. To live life without the experience of friendship, is life without living. But, but we need to select our friends very carefully. We have to remember the maxim “All that glitters is not gold”. We spent much of our time with them. Their mental outlook, behaviour, attitudes affect us too. Therefore, we have to choose our friends very carefully. Friendships are one of the most important things you can get out of life. It’s something that

FREEDOM IS EVERYTHING

Freedom. Simple word yet it means a lot. We can do anything here in our society because we have freedom. Freedom to talk, freedom to eat, freedom to love, freedom to adore anything. But as time goes by this privilege given to us is we tend to abuse it. We are no longer content of what it can give the reason at some point we abuse it until we forgot the real meaning of freedom. For example in social media we tend to abuse the access of facebook. Just like posting fake news, harsh comment and using it for illegal purposes. We should be very thankful for having freedom. Imagine the country that has no freedom, how can they do things knowing that it has limitations? Hard indeed. Similarly to a person who is worried and anxious cannot be free at mind and hence cannot enjoy the scenic beauty of a lovely moonlit sky or the pleasant music of the singing birds at the sunset. How can we live free? From my point of view, we can live free by respecting otherُs rights to live free too.We can

RESPECT

Image
Have you ever been in a situation where someone questions your beliefs, passion and dreams? Every time you try to speak and interact, the reciprocal action of the people around you is hate. What would it feel if you are doing your very best yet no one understands and appreciate your efforts. Do you feel respected when people are judging your every move and action without them knowing your real struggle, without them knowing the real you. Respect. It is such a big word, easy to say. But it is hard to do for some. In our society today where social media dominates us the word respect is just an ordinary thing that some people ignore it. Most people go through life and always hear about the word respect, but they don’t know what it means. Respect is the esteem for or a sense of the worth or excellence of a person. There are things in life you need to hold in respect. Respect for yourself, respect for others, and respect for property. Respect is taught to people everywhere and it is e

DREAM BIG

Isn't amazing that something you have prayed for, for the longest time, finally happened? Isn't amazing working on your dream job and doing things that you really like since day one?  Isn't amazing to be hopeful at some point? And isn't amazing to dream big? Everyone has always had a wildest dream in our lives and SO AM I. I have always been a dreamer. Since as long as I could remember, I would have these wild fantasies and visions of doing and achieving great things in my life. Since i was a child i dreamed to become a Doctor and a Supermodel. Big you may think but that is really my dream. I didn't know when i am started to imagine myself in a hospital wearing a white gown looking so formal and has a scheduled operation unto someone. Or walking on a runway wearing designer outfits made by famous designers then heading to my next shoot surrounded by paparazzi's. Camera is everywhere, click here, click there. Wow what a dream! Isn't amazing to
