Life Passage

“We become what we think about.” – Earl Nightingale Do you know that Positive thinking is a key to good life? Truth is, it holds water!  Your body responds to the way you think, feel, and act. The mind and brain have loads of duties to play in the human body and as such, the way we groom our minds to function will determine the way our bodies will function.  As we advance in our life journey, we are drawn to the importance of positivity as a source of healthy living and as a way of breaking barriers.  There comes a time in life when it will seem as though your world is crumbling and falling apart and at that very moment different thoughts will begin to play up in your head.  Different thoughts will begin to play up. Both good and bad thoughts and most times the thought of giving up feels the mind.  “ The mind is everything.  What you think you become.” – Buddha Well, if you feel life is taking a thorn in you, just remember you are better than someone else....

One thing that is associated with infants is, feeling relaxed and untroubled when they know their mom or dad is right beside them. There's this assurance they have in their mom/dad that makes them not bother about anything else. There's an adage that says, “never put all your eggs in one basket”. Well, I guess you know it can be very dangerous to put all your eggs in one basket, especially when you're not sure of the basket's quality.  Nevertheless, as we progress in our life journey, we need to be rest assured that we will in one way of the other need someone to entrust all our worries to. Now, the question is, who is that someone? Who is that someone that I can entrust my worries to?   Who is that someone who wouldn't complain that my burdens are heavy and that I worry him/her a lot?  Well, the answers are not far-fetched. The someone is JESUS. Yes, you read well, JESUS, and He is the only person who is ready to carry your burdens and hear you lament without scold...

Albert Einstein emphasized the importance of sticking to what you want to do, even when others think it's 'unrealistic'. "The person with big dreams is more powerful than the one with all the facts.”  A dream is the most essential thing in one's life. It’s a cherished aspiration, ambition, or ideal. Our dreams of becoming great in life can be very powerful because it serves as a push for our success.  As we progress in our life journey, it is paramount that you have a dream. Dream helps you achieve any goal that you want to achieve . It is very important in life. They motivate, inspire, improve and help you in achieving any goal that you want to achieve. In Martin Luther King’s ‘I Have a Dream he says “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. I have a dream today”. Dreams are very important and as a person, if you don’t have a dream i...

“Successful people maintain a positive focus in life no matter what is going on around them. They stay focused on their past successes rather than their past failures— JACK CANFIELD” We often get stuck in the routine of life, often missing a deeper connection with things that are quite essential to our life journey. As a person, I love to daydream. I can daydream about anything, I can even daydream of my wedding.    Aside from my fantasies, most times I get carried away by other people’s success that I fail to notice that I’m gifted. One thing that troubles us in our life journey is our inability to pay attention. Lack of attention can be vexatious especially when you have cooked up plans of becoming a celebrity in your head. Lack of concentration can be one hell of a problem and it can trigger you to miss your paths. Most people find it difficult to focus on things that they know how to do best, sometimes, it could be as a result of low self-esteem or ridicule from people, or...

Drawing from our previous post that has to do with gratitude which is very paramount in our life journey, it's also worthy to note that you can't move an inch in your journey if the God figure is struck out.  One thing I hold strong is the belief that God is everywhere like the air we breathe. He hears us no matter how we hum or mumble at our words. He hears and understands us, He does.  I have realized that even when everyone is gone, God stays right there. He stays, and he waits patiently and walks with us through that problems.  I seldom make friends because I feel some are not worth being called one but if there's one person I call my friend then it's God. The friend who never stabs and denies His bestie.  It's sacrosanct that we include that God figure into our daily activities. Know Him and He will reciprocate. Search Him and He will reciprocate. Love Him and He will surely reciprocate. He is God, He is God and He is God.
