Let go 2015 bed habits nd start afresh

Let it go. There are some things,

some people, some attitudes, and

some feelings that you have

experienced that you just need to

let go ~ because they are

preventing you from living your

greatest life! You are in charge.

Exercise your power by

consciously looking and asking

the question..."How is this serving

me by holding on to this attitude,

anger, lack of forgiveness, grudge,

or negative emotion?" Stop

allowing these things to… Continue

Prayer is powerful

“However, this kind does not go
out except by prayer and
fasting." - Matthew 17:21
When you fast and pray, those
mighty mountains in your life
will literally crumble in to dust
before you. God is more
interested in your love for Him -
and your relationship with Him -
than what you can do for Him.
When He sees you go the extra
mile, there is nothing in this
world that will stop Him
blessing you.

Refuse to complain

Refuse to complain. Complaining

is just a way of not taking

responsibility, justifying doing

nothing, and programming

yourself to fail. Complaining

creates the illusion that you have

done something. Instead, pour

your energy into improving your

situation. When you find ways to

be productive and maintain a

sense of optimism, you

demonstrate that you are in

control of your own life.

Complainers focus on what has

happened, and… Continue

Change your self fast before you change others

Stop trying to change the people

you love and change yourself!

Stop trying to change people who

take your money but will not take

your advice. You will only drain

your own mental, spiritual,

emotional and financial reserves.

The truth is...people change when

they are sick and tired of being

sick and tired or hit rock bottom.

If you are dealing with addiction

or irresponsible behavior from

grown adults ~ protect your wallet

Keep your focus

Lions do not have to roar. There is

power in silence, confidence, and

persistence. Those who work

don't talk, and those who talk do

not work. Handle your business.

Measure your efforts by results.

Focus your time, energy, and

activity on mastering and

executing a plan.

Avoid the energy draining practice

of telling people what you're going

to do. Instead, spend your time

and effort in doing the things that

are necessary to… Continue

Believe

Sometimes you have to believe
in someone else's belief in
you...until your own belief kicks
in!
The people you are with can
have a huge impact on you.
Choose wisely and
courageously. Align yourself
with people that you can learn
from, people who want more out
of life, people who are
stretching and searching and
seeking some higher ground in
life. You have GREATNESS
within you!

Character

No test...no testimony. You can

not make lemonade with sugar

alone...you must have some

sour lemons. You can not learn

good horsemanship by riding a

tame horse. The harder the

battle, the sweeter the victory.

Regardless of what happens to

you, never say you are having a

bad day...say you are having a

character building day. All the

things that you are going

through are building your

character. You are being shaped

and… Continue

collectively can bring the ultimate

gifts of Christmas ~ peace, hope,

joy and love into our own lives, as

well as the lives of others.

Today is Christmas. Instead of

just giving and receiving gifts,

Dont stop now

Do not stop now!! Continue to

work on yourself and your dream.

Do not look for others to hold

your heart, take your hand or have

your back. You are responsible

for your own life and for creating

your own path. Commit to move

out of your own way. Stop

procrastinating or waiting for

someone to rescue you.

Be clear about who you can count

on and who you must count out.

Make adjustments and surround

yourself with positive… Continue

wishes all South Africans a happy

and safe festive season. This is

the time of year that most

Leadership

"The challenge of leadership
is to be strong, but not rude;
be kind, but not weak; be
bold, but not bully; be
thoughtful, but not lazy; be
humble, but not timid; be
proud, but not arrogant; have
humor, but without folly."

Focus on solution

Focus on solutions ~ not

problems! What you focus on the

longest becomes the strongest.

The best way to deal with the

challenges you are facing is to

look for solutions. Spend your

time being creative, resourceful

and get some help. Worry is faith

turned inside out...assuming the

negative. It wastes your energy

and does not solve anything. It

paralyzes you, stifles your growth

and robs you of your creativity.

Use your imagination… Continue

Youthzones empowering young people to become successful entrepreneurs

To me Entrepreneurship is to live.

It’s about persevering. It’s about

testing yourself. It’s about not

becoming complacent. If you love

what you do and are willing to do

what it takes, it's within your

reach. And it'll be worth every

minute you spend alone at night,

thinking and thinking about what it

is you want to design or build.

Always remember that some

people want it to happen, some

wish it would happen, others make

it… Continue

7 things to stop doing to yourself!

1. Stop spending time with the

wrong people. It’s useless

spending time with people who

don’t know your worth.

2. Stop running from your

problems. Face them head on.

3. Stop lying to yourself.

4. Stop putting your own needs on

the back burner. Yes,

help others; but help yourself too.

5. Stop trying to be someone

you’re not. Don’t change so

people will like you. Be yourself

and the right people will

love the real you.

6.… Continue

My goal

response into results. Some

Expect great things in your life

It is not enough to want great
things in your life. It is
important to EXPECT that you
will get them. Want shows up in
conversation, but expectation
shows up in what you actually
do to make those things come
true. Be an active force for good
in your own life. You have
GREATNESS within you!!

Do your best each and every day

Do your best each and

everyday. If you lose something,

don't let it be your happiness.

Life's too short to waste your

time on those who aren't worth

it and some people are only

meant to stay in your life for so

long. Use past experiences as a

tool to grow(not as a crutch)

and embrace forgiveness. I do

this to let you know it's possible

to be happy, healthy and strong,

but it all depends on what you

do and how you do it.
