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 money year.


MY READING FAMILY

Very thankful for a specific set of people; my reading family. 
I'm so passionate about conversations geared towards growth. I respect the wisdom God has given each of us as humans and the contributions we can make in each other's lives, this is why I started a book club. 

I learnt alot from my wonderful reading family, I can't even begin to quantify. These people are passionate about growth and self development and they are certainly people I want in my life forever and I'm so thankful for that. 


CHAPTER 22

My birthday in this year was so startling. I couldn't believe this girl was turning 22. 
P.s - My age is news to me everyday. I feel like I was twelve 2 seconds ago.lol

I'm not one for resolutions but around that period, the Lord helped me make necessary decisions. I redefined alot of value systems and took actual steps towards making sure my value systems stay on course. I am still actively working on it but I'm so thankful for how far I have come and the journey ahead.


PEACE

This may seem funny but I am thankful for peace of mind.
Truly, true peace only comes from God. 
So many things happened this year that was so mind agitating. 
So I truly thank God for granting me peace of mind. 


ICONS

Thank God for John Maxwell. I read alot of books by this author this year and it has been a life changing experience.  

Because of one of his books, I have decided that I'm starting 2023 with a goal to make an impact in the life's of a couple of women around me. Helping them to live up to all God has called them to me. 
I'm so excited about this and I trust God to help me accomplish his plans for the people who are going to be a part of this vision.

GOALS WITHOUT DATES

Thankful for yet another year of not starting a podcast. This may sound funny but I'm thankful because I know everything will happen in it's season. My podcast will happen in it's season and in God's appointed time. 



THANKFUL FOR YOU

Thank you; for reading my Blog posts, for coming with me on this journey
and for being my best audience


There's a whole lot more to say of God's Goodness but I couldn't possibly be able to write it all even if I were to blog on it everyday of 2023. 

I'm so thankful, so so grateful. 
I fall more in love with Jesus everyday and I want to tell someone today that if you have Jesus, you have alotttt to be thankful for. 
Happy New year

Let's do this again this next year
Love & Light

Is it possible that a man love you and still cheat?  I watched a video sometime back of a man who said he would be head over heels in love with a woman and still betray her trust sexually. He added that female infidelity is much more disgusting than male infidelity. Click here to watch the video                                      .   .   .  .  I think these types of opinions are what we get when: 1. We keep championing stereotypes 2. We date/marry an unbeliever. I'll write on the second point today and one day I'll get to speak on how much harm stereotypes has done to us as a society.  Follow me closely. People often ask the question "what is Love? " Which is a fair question honestly but nevertheless, a question that can never really accurately explain or describe Love.  Which means while I understand what they are inquiring about wh...

The psychological effect of the ongoing strike on a Nigerian Student by OLUWATOSIN AKINNUOYE

LET ME BE PAUL; THE DEPRESSED Paul the apostle wrote letters of encouragement to the body of Christ. However, this piece may not totally be an article of encouragement to the students and whoever this reaches to, you may rather tag it ‘a note on how I feel’.  In the past 5 months and even today, I'm depressed but I realized that many young persons in Nigeria feel this same way, especially university students.    When the ongoing strike was announced some months back, I felt bad, but hopeful as it was tagged "warning strike", I saw it as a luxury opportunity to explore details on my research work. I keep wanting to avoid social media, considering how almost every update on my timeline, starting with Facebook all reads of my junior class Mates back at Secondary School who are signing out from their undergraduate level, signing into NYSC (“answering the Clarion call”), others having their Passing Out Parades etc. Let's not even mention how far my mates have gone. Fast...

Dreams!! Plans!! Two sides of a coin

... 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...
