Recharge time!!
We build kingdoms,
townhouses and condos for our problems, or we invite them in and run baths for
them – Iyanla Vanzant
How many
times have you had a problem or a challenge and it’s all you talk about? The
issue takes over your life, it starts to define you! Your entire focus is on
this so called problem. I’ve learnt that when that is the approach, the
situation just grows, you praise it and make a God out of it! I’ve learnt to
shift the focus from the problem to the solution! You may not even know what
the solution is but sure enough you can shift the thought process to something
other than the problem and how much of a victim you are!
Stand in
your power. I have heard it time and time again here, “there are no victims
here” how awesome and powerful is that outlook! I am not a victim, I refuse to
be called a victim, I refuse to be labelled a victim by myself or by others.
That is
not to say that you deny or ignore your problems, of course not, it is
acknowledging it and showing up with a totally different mindset!
Yesterday
I had to collect my passport, I am going home tomorrow/ My passport has been in
immigration for ages securing my work permit, they told me come for it this
week, I have been going there daily only to be told to come back tomorrow. It’s
now Friday I leave Sunday I get there and the officer says sorry come back on
Monday! What??? He tells me to go away!
I get
back to base and she says to me “ stop focusing on the problem , stop telling
me about it, what is wrong about it, you will get your passport” This is now Friday evening at 4.30pm! I went away and stopped talking about the
African disorganised ways!!
At 7pm I
received my passport with the work permit stamped! Miracles happen every day!!
Home
time!!!
Thank
you guys for sharing in this first leg of my journey, I will be at home for a
couple of weeks recharging, let’s see what lessons I learn there! Bear with me
as I may not be able to hang out with you over the next few days but will touch
base soon
Peace!!!
