Dreams!! Plans!! Two sides of a coin

Image
... taking action steps towards the life you desire. We all have amazing dreams and visions on where we want to be and what we want to be doing in the future. It's beautiful to think about, it's beautiful to dream about. Having and writing down these extraordinary goals is the first step and a very essential step towards the life we desire. The mistake we all make sometimes is having a vision for where we want to see ourselves in a couple of years from now but no plan, road map or action to get there.  What are you doing today that will further propel you towards your dreams and aspirations?  It's not just about desiring to be a CEO with many employees like Mark Zuckerberg or Elon Musk, it's what am I doing today to prepare myself for that reality? How many leadership conferences have you attended? How much can you spare for a leadership course? What are your best reads on the subject? How intentional are you about growing your financial IQ? What I'm sa...

God is Good

Image
It's been a while since I last posted on this space courtesy of school activities which tend to take alot of my time and energy.  Being back on break, I thought I would start writing the minute I got home but I struggled so much with getting inspired. I still am. The good thing is that in recent days, I feel my hands warming up to get back to what it loves and I sense my heart indicting good matters so watch this space. I have been meditating recently on the Goodness of God. It's really so beautiful when you think about it. The Lord led me to a scripture; Genesis 16:1-14. This is the story of Hagar, an Egyptian woman serving Sarai and Abram. So a background story; Sarai was without a child and was beyond devastated about the situation. She then asks her husband to sleep with Hagar so she can conceive and maybe through her slave, she could have children. Abram didn't oppose the idea,he laid with Hagar and she conceived. Pride set in and she started looking down o...

The Journey of Sexual Purity

Image
For a couple of weeks now, I have been feeling very strongly in my Spirit to pen something down on sexual purity. Posts like this makes it seem like the writer has everything together which is not necessarily true. I will say though that I am grateful for the journey thus far.  This blog post highlights a couple of key points that have helped me in my journey and that I trust will to aid your journey too.  Your 'Why' Living a life of sexual purity is absolutely difficult if not impossible if your why is non existent or questionable. Alot of us just know that certain things are frowned at in the Faith and want to follow suit to maintain an image but we have no real conviction and so we fall. Take time out to ask yourself why you chose to abstain till marriage Is it because people are doing it? What if you realize that people aren't actually doing it? Is it because this is what men what? What happens when you realize the opposite?  Is it because you ...

Gratitude Journal 2022

For a year that I started without much of a goal, plan or aspiration, the Lord did me well. I'm so grateful for 2022. There are so many things to mention but I'll write specific things that God laid in my heart to write on.  This year started with no goals for me, not one single goal.  Well, I used to randomly pray about God helping me to start a blog. I don't classify that as a goal though because I did nothing about it. I had no game plan to achieve it, I wasn't even planning on using my hands to start the Blog. Lol The prayer was for the Blog to happen to me miraculously 😅  So I had no plans or goals for 2022 but like I said earlier, God did me well. I'm so grateful for an intentional Father.  I started this blog in the month of April. BOOKS I am very thankful for books. More than any other year, I read a significant number of books this year and learnt a great deal from them.  I started reading on finances this year and wow, just Wow. 2023 is certainly my m...

Little Enablers of Late Coming

We are at that time of the year again, the month of December. In the little town I grew up in, this time of the year is always filled with numerous events, concerts, conferences and so on.   I believe it’s the same in most places around the world. This is why I have decided to write a blog post on an issues that has long affected us even beyond seasons like this, I’ll be writing on time management and a general respect for time.  The issue of Time consciousness is one of utmost importance. It’s one discipline that we’ve not been able to completely master and this poses as a real issue that needs to be addressed.   In this blog post, I elaborate on a perspective that I have come to believe is one of the reasons why the problem persists, which is:  “People disrespect time because they know that organizers, speakers and every other person disrespects time” This plays out in different ways which I’m going to be exploring in this Blog Post.   I ask tha...

TO MY SISTERS; The Trap Of Good Intentions

Image
"When Good intentions become questionable..." I realize that when it comes to relationships, a number of people may have really good intentions, they may have the desire to be the ideal person for their partners, they must have even daydreamed of the kind of relationship they want with their partners.  Where it becomes a trap is when good intentions stop at being just that; "Intentions..." An Intention can be seen in two senses: 1. What you desire, aim or plan to do. 2. The goal or purpose behind a specific action or set of actions. The second meaning of the word is quite interesting. It shows that for something to qualify as an Intention (whether good or bad) there must be a key element; " action " . The Intention becomes the goal or purpose behind an action.  It is quite disheartening that in many relationships today, people say they want to reach a particular goal for themselves, their boo or relationship in general but never actively work ...
