#NewBlogPost #Inspiring #Positive #Ideas- #GameChanger #Books to #Moments

Hello

Thank you for stopping by at this week’s blog post, the support has been truly amazing and I am forever thankful for more that you can ever imagine.

It’s been a tough road and in many ways it is still is but the response I get from my blog is feeding my motivation to turn this blog into a book. (I have shared some snippets in previous posts, drop me a line and let me know your thoughts).

#NewBlogPost- as we are a quarter of a way into #2016-I thought it be a good idea to be in reflective mode……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………....


I read that it’s important to celebrate the little milestones of achievements to motivate self to keep going & realise how far I have come in such a short space of time. It’s easy to dismiss the little progress, as they seem insignificant or small but without those tiny seeds of inspiration- it wouldn’t have added to a complete change in mindset. Change always starts with self before it can be materialise, as you can’t expect a different outcome, using the same mindset that created your current reality.

Just over a year ago, I attended Michelle Mone’s-My Fight to the Top book talk, it was only 6 months since departing that dire job, which left me in a state of despair. I loved her story because we are all to some extent a product of our circumstances, but we don’t have to be a victim of our circumstances. Through her grit and determination she did just that, despite her personal circumstances, she had the mantra of a highly effective person- I am a product of my choices & not a product of my circumstances- Stephen Covey, 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.

Below is a timeline of key events that inspired me to think & be in a way that moves me forward, hope this list can give you some food for thought on your own journey:

-      Go Think Big Event
-      Michelle Mone-My Fight To The Top Book Talk
-      Cinderella Exhibition
-      Steve Witt Sermon
-      Summer Holidays- Beach Outings
-      Christian Retreat
-      Women Ministries
-      Fellowship
-      Care For The Family-Parentalk


It’s hard to think positive during storms, a quote I shared earlier said it perfectly why I support this way of thinking by TW-

Negative thinking creates obstacles, and positive thinking clears them.

A simple trip to the beach gave me so much inspiration from the calmness of the sea to the crisp clean air- inspired me to be still, mediate & just take in the breaths of life. I also created KIMI’s logo in the sand- connect with me on #facebook to see. More so it encouraged me just too simply take in the beauty of the earth and not just be consumed by things and people that usually has minimal value. 

It reminded me of a profound teaching in Christ, happiness is not attached to things or people. True happiness derives from holiness, living through Christ’s peace & righteousness making the right choices, in accordance with the Word & being Christ like in a broken world #ChipIngram all works towards eternal & everlasting happiness that is deep from within.

Have a great week! Over 4,700 hits- could you help to share this & reach more? Thanks.

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 ...
