Morning Inspiration: Part 2- A New Chapter - New Year, New Beginning & New You.

I was drawn to the quote below as it echoed one of the biggest life lessons I learnt, which is there are never endings, just new beginnings because every day is a new day for us to evolve, thrive and flourish. To be driven by possibilities and not the past because the past has ended and the future has yet to come. Therefore we can only embrace the moment, the here and now to shape our tomorrows.

‘The first step into getting anywhere is deciding you are not willing to stay where you are’ John Assaraf.

Acknowledgement in wanting better instigates change and influences your next moves, without this it makes progress unlikely as you are not motivated by any reasons to do differently. Typically we all wish for a better life and not many for whatever reason do anything about it. I was no different to the norm at one point, until my circumstances forced me to face my fears and embrace life.

In the midst of my lowest ebb, I realise that all that I deemed as my security in life was not so secure in time of great need. Reading has become my source to finding a solution to repair and restore my broken self. This led me to explore Christianity, as I absorbed each message about pain it touched the core of my existence and slowly but surely I began to get to know Jesus for myself. I learnt rapidly the significance of Him in my life and how He indeed saves and rescues people like me.

I am speaking as someone who has had 10 years of therapy off and on. Leading a life away from this seems unlikely. I was restless and tired in my being until I met Jesus, for Him to heal and soften my heart with unconditional love. Because Jesus is God and God is love. I now realise that anything good comes from love and this represented the God that I know through His son Jesus.



‘When the heart is full of love, it is also filled with faith, hope and peace. When the heart isn’t full of love it is filled with the opposite that goes down a devious path and dries up.’ The inspiration for this actually came from my 10 year old daughter, which is a miracle in itself, as love is an unspoken topic historically. I don’t think there is a stronger testimony than this, Jesus truly changes lives for the better.

I hope by my sharing my vulnerable former self, it will encourage and inspire you in some shape or form to never give up. Everything is relative and interchangeable, circumstances do not necessarily dictate outcomes. It’s the relentless pursuit of wanting life and not settling until you have found the peace you deserve.


With much love

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 ...
