Don't find an excuse find a way

Don’t figure out how to put it off until later. Use your energy and intelligence and time to get it done now. Let go of the urge to complain about how things are. Remind yourself that you can make things better, and challenge yourself in each moment to do just that. There’s no need to be dismayed at how hard it will be. Choose instead to be enthusiastic about how much of a real difference you can make. What really matters is not what’s pushing against you. What matters is how how authentically  committed you are to moving forward. Ralph Marston

I truly believe in being in the present moment, I say it all the time - Now is all I got! I've learnt that being present, being in the moment, focusing on now is a sure way of releasing stress! When I find myself thinking about what I have to do, what I didn't do yet I remind myself that no one promised me tomorrow so focus on the moment. It is really a feeling of freedom. I can choose to focus on what I have to do, or what I did not do or I can choose to focus on what I am doing now and give it all my attention and energy because when its done I just created a memory, a piece of history! How awesome is that?

I have been telling myself this today, singing it like a mantra! Why? I have been working on a research project on women entrepreneur's in Trinidad and Tobago which is due in 3 weeks time, in the middle of that I am travelling overseas and of course there's living to do!  So I focus on now because Now is all I have for sure! I focus on finding a way and not finding excuses on moving forward!

So what did I learn?

Complaining continues to create the vibration of what you don't want. As Bob Marley says complaining is praying to the devil! Today, take your focus off of what is wrong and focus on what is right and how you desire things to be. Put all your love, energy, mental power and decision making towards what you want and do not entertain thoughts that are to the contrary. You are more responsible for the way you feel than your environment, circumstances or relationships. Step towards love today, step towards solution.
Peace!!!

Redefinition of Lose

Rather than think about what you have to do to change a situation, consider what the situation might be doing to change you. How it might be seasoning and transforming and growing you. You are not responsible for everything and everyone. Allow that as a possibility. Jessica Dore There are some situations that are simply in your life showing you how to shift, how to be flexible, to grow, to transform. You long for change, yet you cling so to the familiar. You are so afraid of what you think you will lose. You are even afraid to lose the things you don't want. The familiar becomes your family, regardless of what it is. let's redefine "lose" I define lose as opening up to a new possibility The day I stopped saying that I lost my house, lost my marriage, lost my mind, things shifted for me The shift has to start inside How we define and relate to the circumstances in our lives transforms how we act. I started asking myself different question...

What Does Support Look Like to You?

  You save yourself energy when you learn to ask people what they need, instead of assuming you know best then acting on your own impulses. Allowing people to define what support looks like gives you an ability to assess if you have the capacity to show up - Minaa B If someone asks you right now, what does support look like to you, what would be your answer? It takes self reflection , self awareness and more importantly a whole load of authenticity to answer. On the flip side, do you rush to support others without them even asking- there may be times when that is required, however many a time we assume that we know what others want and need. The times when we do assume, after a while a feeling of resentment builds because "how could they be so ungrateful?" or "why are they not seeing their need for my help?" the other classic is "they must need my help to show them because they clearly are not seeing that they need support" We continue to assume what othe...
