Speak a better word It might not happen all the time, but I have noticed when I speak negatively, negative feelings emerge which somehow also creates negative situations around me. As a result I truly believe there is power in the tongue and what we speak can often manifest itself. People often ask me why I speak positively most of the time. Well it’s for that reason. I’ve had negative words spoken over me and those words were deposited into my life and I started believing them and living like they were true even though they weren’t. It was deep….

We can’t control all the situations around us but we have some control of the things happening within us. Situations will happen, people will happen but it’s how we respond to those things which is important. We can control our emotions and reactions the majority of the time. We can choose to stop letting things bother us. We can ask for help so that we can finally let go… We can’t make a change to everything around us, but we can make a change within us. Peace and love MrsJK *Throughout Lent I’m not giving up words completely but I’m…

Do not resent the days of small beginnings. Out of those days rivers of life could flow. I’ve learnt this lesson lots of times over the years. Sometimes I start something and it doesn’t look like it’s going anywhere because it’s small but each thing has just provided a piece of the puzzle for the bigger picture. Yesterday I was talking to someone I really respect. He helped me understand that a small idea that I have could be revolutionary and could change my life financially so I have to do it. When I was made redundant last year I…

We will never reach the top if we don’t start climbing. This is may seem like an obvious thing but is it? I am someone that has lots of dreams and visions for things. Lots of these things are still nothing but dreams because I haven’t done anything about them. I receive confirmation that they are the right things to do but I still sit on them for years. I think I was waiting for something, but the funny thing is I don’t even know what I’ve been waiting for. Over the weekend I tackled something that I had put…

Don’t let life become too serious. Feel free to have fun. I was hanging out with some kids one day and one of them suggested that I get on the floor and act like I’m sleeping and let them cover me from head to toe with lots of bean bags. I think they were a bit confused and shocked when I agreed to do it. I think it shocked them because I’m an adult and at times us adults make life too serious and portray the image that it’s a crime to play silly games. We can’t do this, we…

It is well… Today, on the 16th anniversary of my mum’s departure from this earth, I decided to write a poem which will hopefully inspire. It’s called ‘It is well.’ It is well… When things are all over the place and life looks a mess I don’t worry so much now because I know I’m awaiting the best. It is well. It doesn’t matter if yesterday didn’t work out in a good way Because there’s another chance to work on those things today. It is well. I didn’t think I’d cope without my mum being on this earth cos she…

Be still and listen I woke up this morning thinking hmmm I have no words today. Now for me to have no words, there must be a reason because I usually have words for days. I actually just stopped and sat quietly for a while to feel my heart beat and listen to myself breathe. Then I realised there was a point to this. Sometimes we are so busy worrying and complaining we forget all our blessings. I am blessed to have a heart that beats normally on its own and blessed to breathe without any equipment. What I also…

We have the power to overcome fear by telling it to leave. I know that might sound wacky but it works. Like worry, fear can attach itself to us but it can also disappear through our own choices. It’s a state of the mind and I’ve realised with the Almighty’s help it can vanish. Fear and worry are relatives and they gel well together. They both consume our time and stop us from doing better things. Fear can stop us from stepping out of our comfort zones and we worry about the outcome if we do. The result usually is,…

Worry is a big time waster. Spend time on better things. I used to spend hours worrying about things I couldn’t control. I would worry about the worse case scenario and I must have spent valuable time coming up with some rubbish. However I have some friends that used to go beyond my levels of worry. Even I was baffled to how they could come up with some far fetched stuff. Pure genius. If there were awards for worrying they would win. I’m so happy that they are learning not to do it so much now. The thing was, most…

We don’t have to make time for ourselves just choose how we spend the time on ourselves. It’s Friday! Wow I’ve had a wonderful week off my main working activities. I’ve spent lots of time with my lil family and I’ve seen lots of things that have inspired me and hopefully they will inspire you over the weeks and months. As it’s Friday, my tradition for that day of the week is to remind everyone to ensure the whole week doesn’t pass without us doing something for ourselves. No doubt we do so much for others. We’re parents, siblings, friends,…
