KIMI 's Back Story

After many years of trials and tribulations, I felt overwhelmed and exhausted to the core. Life just seemed too hard and I was destined for a mediocrity existence. I worked with a therapist to unpack these negative thoughts and emotions. The sessions were very helpful as it taught me some life changing skills, such as valuing and using my experiences to redefine myself. We all carry a burden in some shape or form, the difference is how we see and manage it. During this time I was inspired and motivated to learn a different way of thinking and being because as the saying goes ‘if you know better, you do better’-Maya Angelou.

A common feature of personal growth in my reading is that everything starts with a thought and the Thinking KIMI blog will be documenting my journey from thinking and being in a new way that moves me forward and taking myself to the next level. I am a firm believer in that if you always do what you always have done, you will always get what you always got-unknown. I was able to make that transition from being stuck in a rut to seeing the world in abundance.

In short Thinking KIMI is an online platform for exploring positive thinking on a practical level and connecting with like-minded people to share ideas on how to create the life we truly desire. Throughout all my reading from various sources, one thing has been very consistent is that we as individuals have the power to change our lives. Michelle Mone said that if you are not successful it’s because of you and her story is a real testament to her victory.

Highly Effective People Strives For Excellence

Hello I hope you enjoyed the last 2 special blog posts about Parentalk and Abuse. I felt it was important for me to use this platform to raise awareness on topics that could make a positive impact on future generations. This week is back to talking about life, inspiration, motivation and ideas-this post was actually inspired by a rather dysfunctional event. Every day we have many distractions, which can keep us from our destiny if we chose to be consumed by it.  Our dreams has to be bigger than our current reality to cause us not to sweat the smaller stuff and that involves letting some things or people go. The difference between effective and not-effective people is how we chose to channel it. Below is how (after the initial annoyance) I done it. Just to put this into context- the individual(s) concerns were unable to take accountability for their actions / errors, instead what I observed was a misuse of power and the slow demise of an outdated organisation. Enjoy...

A book review – Part One - Dealing with Disappointment by John Hindley

This book was a relatively easy read with the simple idea that leaves you to question: is life just one big disappointment?  In many ways it does seem so; the author delves into different areas of disappointment in our lives. I suspect most if not all are relatable to everyone. Firstly, the author says we actually should be disappointed by life, as things are not as good as they should be. We live in a frustrated and frustrating world; the frustration is because of the fallen world when sin entered humanity. We all carry this divinely inbuilt sense that the world should and could be better. The book goes on to say that on the other hand, we are sometimes too disappointed with life.  We expect satisfaction from other areas of lives to overcompensate for this.  When this satisfaction is denied, it starts an over-disappointed cycle. For example, I came across a thread where the mum wrote in and expressed disappointment in her children’s grades, which led her to ques...

A seemingly insignificant act has the potential to change the world...

I loved learning about the story of Reformation Day. The significance centres on how the Bible became accessible for everyone to read - historically the general public wasn’t allowed to read it, only priests or those considered anointed within the church were allowed to read it. The priests read the Bible in Latin, so for most people, it wasn’t even possible to read it. God’s word was entrusted into the hands of those in power, who were deemed qualified to understand it.  What the priests were teaching, was not actually in line with what the Bible said, as one monk, called Martin Luther found out. He started to read the Bible for himself out of pure frustration.  According to the teachings of the priests, believing in God seem to be just to be an endless set of rules and it left him feeling as if he could never be good enough for God. Little did he know at the time, he was about to birth a revolution that quite literally changed the world. This set him on a path of ...
