Hey Everyone!
About a week ago I had the opportunity to follow my boss to Orlando Florida. To be honest the break couldn't have come at a better time. Mentally I needed to escape, gather my thoughts, plan and prepare for future aspirations... alla dat!
Prior to this trip a lot in my personal life had changed, some things for the good and others for the bad. Above all, the life lessons throughout my journey thus far are greatly appreciated. I have been reminded that time waits for no man and how precious our time spent, is.
I think it's safe to say that the majority of us have the intention of accomplishing certain things at a specific age or would like most things to go to plan in whichever way we have planned it, however life throws you the biggest curve ball at times and we're not always prepared. How we choose to handle the direction of our new circumstance(s), makes the big difference in the journey to success.
No one is you and that is your power
Knowing who you are, what you are capable of, and your value is so important. You may be the only expert in your field, you may be the prettiest girl in the pageant, you may be the wealthiest man in the room... unfortunately there will always be someone better. Knowing your worth and value will maintain your confidence, strengthen any minor moments of insecurity and diffuse any feelings of intimidation. Situations can arise where your confidence is knocked, ego is bruised or value has been diminished. Gentle reminders to build up your self-esteem are necessary. Remain humble and recognise when doubt is trying to persuade you to blend in, keep quiet, shy away... Don't jeopardise your self-esteem, uniqueness for anything. Be you and know that you're enough
Being that there's a big part of me that strives for perfection, I sometimes hinder my own growth and stop my own progress because of the thoughts that enter my mind. Recognising this has enabled me to enjoy being me again. The pressures of life can throw you off course... your state of mind has to continuously embrace positivity to counteract how it can affect your actions.
