Balancing Life...

On a weekly basis, I have work, my blog, hanging out with my family, taking care of myself, and working on my future projects. My goal each and every week is to have a balanced life. In addition, while doing each of these tasks, to make sure I give 100% of myself to that task. It has been working out lately. Sadly, you have to create a time schedule so that you achieve all that you want to. You don’t want to get off track because that means something is not going to get done.

To have a balanced life you need to be focused and set real time goals for yourself. We all have a purpose; we just have to make time for it. It will not be easy, but you are devoted to your future self.

A balanced life definitely makes you happier and you will not stress as easily. You find lots of motivation, will be very calm, and relaxed. Prioritize what is important to your life and then go from there. Do not say that family is important and not associate yourself with family because your “too busy”. We all make time for what we want, so no excuses.

You may have to offer up some things. Like cut an hour of your sleep or stay up later. 24 hours in a day, is all that you need to accomplish the things you want in a matter of time. Just stay focus on your goals and what you desire.

Warning: there may be some days where you can not get everything done. Just know it will be okay. Have fun while you are doing the things you want to do. Be present. Do not worry about all the things you have to get done, just get it done with a positive attitude.

Uplifting Others!

Don’t tear people down, uplift them. We all have problems and things we have to grow through. You know how it feels. If you feel hurt, don’t continue to hurt others…bad cycle. When someone is in need of inspiration, motivation, or anything, try to be an encouragement. As you uplift others and be an example, others will follow…good cycle.

I feel it is easier to uplift others. Spread more happiness! We all can use a hand, especially during trying times. Build each other! Help! Be the person you once needed.

Ways to uplift others:

• Compliments
• Encouragement
• Share your wisdom
• Stay positive
• Show them unconditional love

Be the example.

Learn to be patient with yourself!

Learn to be patient with yourself, life, love, and others. It is important. Some things we may not understand at that moment and that is okay. Soon enough we will, as we continue to pray and seek God. It is vital to be patient with yourself. Things don’t come easy. As we are patient with ourselves, we become patient with others. Everything starts with us.

Patience is surely a virtue. Be patient with the process of life and how we continue to learn, grow, and evolve.

Developing patience for ourselves and also others takes accepting things for what they are, but knowing you have the power to change.

Timing is important. As time progress, things get better. Be open to life and patient to know everything will be okay.

Take your time! Have a great week!

God is within me!

My light is always shining because God shines through me. HE is the reason for my happiness, my love, my glow, my power, and pretty much everything I have. With a lot of prayer, persistence, hard work, and not giving up is how I possessed such light. I seek it from him and ask God to use me. I want to be able to show others an example of what God’s love looks like. I desire to be an example.

I did not get where I am at today alone, it is through him that I am where I am at today. I continue to strive and follow the path he has intended to be on. It is not easy, but I KNOW that everything will be okay, just like it’s always been.

God is love. Praying and asking for his guidance each and every day, and probably almost every moment has encouraged me to keep going. Even through my tough times I know HE is there watching, but also testing me. Through each test that is being brought to me, HE is making me stronger like him.

Sometimes I do not know how, I just know it was God. I’m sure you have plenty of moments when you do not know how, but you do know it had everything to deal with God. Amazing feeling. HE is always there. Even when you do not know how to help someone, he uses you to get to that person. Ever thought where the idea or such words come from, it was him using you to help another communicate to him.

God is everywhere. He is within me and you all at the same time. God is a spirit flowing through those who want to be used.

Maneuvering through life...

We all are trying to maneuver through life. Sometimes we are at a steady pace, then next thing you know life is moving faster than we can blink. It happens. Learn to take all of what life has to offer. It's so much. You'll actually be surprised more than you would want to. Just know there’s blessings everywhere!  

Stay grounded. Stay centered. Stay around those who uplift you. Maneuvering through life is not hard, we just make it seem that way. 

If you need any guidance, seek someone who has wisdom and are at that place you seek. They can help you not make the same mistakes they have made. It will help you in the long run and save you a lot of time. Where you are, someone has been there, and conquered it. You can too. Believe in yourself and your ability. 

Remember life is a journey, not a destination. Don't rush it. Most of our situations are temporary. Stay strong in your faith.

Have a great weekend!

We ALL need a PUSH!

We all need a push every now and then. When we are afraid to do the things we want to do, we need someone to give us that push. It is the strength that can get us through our trials. Sometimes you are so close to the finish line and all you need is that extra support. It’s there, just ask for it. Talk to people. Let them know what’s going on and your goals.

I want to note to be careful whom you talk with. There should be select people that should be included in the things that you are doing. It can be family members, friends, colleagues, or different people that you have associations with! Pick and choose those who will help you reach your goal.

Make sure you are honoring yourself when someone is pushing you. Sometimes they can push you further than what you can offer and you may not be ready. That is why it is so vital to know yourself and where you want to go. People can definitely attempt to control your life IF YOU ALLOW THEM TO.

Get people to push you in the direction that you desire to go. Create a support system. Keep strong. Stay motivated.

STAY CALM in the midst of cHaoS!

Always stay calm in the midst chaos. During a lot of chaos what do you do? Stress? Panic? Anxiety? If you do not know, check your behavior when something does occur! 

If you know me, when things happen I tend to be a very calm person. Reason: what's meant to happen, will already happen. Me stressing and all, would not help the situation. Another reason: I feel like God is always testing me, so I just respond in the way I know he would proud of me. Besides, majority of the time when we stress and things of such, God has already worked it out. When you look back, you realized time and energy has been wasted into a situation that was already preordained for your life. 

God does not want you to suffer or stress. Honestly, some of the situations we have been put in, is so that we can make our story here on Earth more interesting and relatable. The power of your testimony can change someone’s life!! During the midst of chaos, remain calm. Everything will work out in your favor. You just have to believe. Believe that you are on the right track and that God has a plan for you! 

The moment you begin to feel flustered or stress take a moment to breathe and see the situation for what it is. If there are others around you who are stressing, try to reassure them that everything will be okay. How you respond, others will too. Every action does not have to be a reaction. Try it. Sometimes I have people look at me weird like why am I not stressing. I do not need to stress when I have God and you simply don't either.
