Morning Inspiration - A Pattern of Events with a Hidden Message

Hello

Thank you for stopping by.

I am always super thankful for everyone who takes the time to share and connect with me. A couple of weeks ago, I received the following timely quote by @mrellison that shifted my thinking from obstacle to opportunity: 

‘If you keep noticing the same thing over & over again, pay attention to it. Signs are there as universal messages for you to receive.’

One issue that was particularly prevalent was dysfunction, despite limiting my contact with people it had a habit of reappearing in all forms. It would have been far too time consuming for me to respond and engage with each individual case. I am also transferring the control over to the other party, which maybe short sighted of me. 

 In other words, given the quick succession of similar events how sustainable is it for me to ‘have a conversation(s)’ with every one of them? The impact may also be minimal, as people are usually on the defensive. 

My beliefs and values, maybe stagnating rather than strengthening me as an individual. A typical response of indifferent would be nuisance and annoyance, which is quite rightly so but rarely provides an adequate resolution. 

People will always have a problem with people on some level. I now accepted this to be a part of life. It doesn’t mean I condone bad behaviour or agree with some questionable ways but it does mean I am at peace to coexist in a rather somewhat broken world.




Never let outside circumstances turn you into something that you are not. Keep shining because we are all born to thrive in all the wondrous of life. 

With love and peace

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 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 ...

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...
