Time for Change: Four Reasons A Person Should Change and Why

By


Change is necessary, but not all change is good.  It is the revolution of the future.  We need change for growth and prosperity. But what is Change?

The word CHANGE means: To become different, renewed or anew; a shift in paradigm - from ones current state to new desired state.


Personally, I am not one to advocate CHANGE. Unless of course, you are doing it for you and NOT for someone else.  You see; in any event, one MUST want or need to change in order for change to take place in the first place, and we hope for the better.  We cannot be going about telling people to be their "authentic self" and then; in the same breath, tell them to change.  Change for what?  We must all live the life we love and love the life we live; so long as it is a life DEVOID of the four BIG "NESSES".

In order to live a BOLD AND CONFIDENT LIFE one must first devoid one’s self of what I call the four BIG NESSES and/or the tell-tale signs of LOW OR NO SELF-ESTEEM:

Disrespectfulness: 
RUDE, DISCOURTEOUS, SARCASTIC, CONTEMPTUOUS, YELLING, ♥CAUSING ANGER OR ANNOYANCE, SPEAKING OR ACTING IN SUCH A WAY

Ungratefulness:  
UNTHANKFUL, UNAPPRECIATIVE, UNPLEASANT, ♥NOT GIVING DUE RETURN OR RECOMPENSE FOR BENEFITS RECEIVED

Mean-Spiritedness:  
COWARDLY, CRAVEN, DISLOYAL, BULLYING, MALICIOUS, PETTY, ♥UNTRUE, HATEFUL, JEALOUS, ♥ALWAYS WANTING TO HURT OTHERS CONSCIOUSLY OR INNATELY

Weakness:  
ARE YOU A PUSHOVER, THE AGREEABLE ONE, ♥LACKING FIRMNESS OF CHARACTER OR STRENGTH IN WILL, EASILY DEFEATED ♥TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF, SELF-PITY OR VICTIMIZED SYNDROME
DO NOT BE AFRAID TO ASSERT YOURSELF OR EVEN BECOME THE “PROVERBIAL B!TCH”, IF IT MEANS STANDING UP FOR YOUSELF AND YOUR WELL-BEING.
These four NESSES are life’s greatness ENERGY ZAPPERS.  They serve no other purpose other than to hold US back from attaining our full potential, personal balance and spiritual richness. If you are holding on to any of these, I beg you, let it go!

You need to be REFORMED if you:

  • Always twist the truth to make others look bad or sympathize with you
  • Are a Notorious liar
  • A Thief, or
  • A Menace to society.

How does one change?

In order to change, we must be serious about change. Change must be a personal commitment and a ritual for it to take place. We can change by doing one or all of the followings:
  • First acknowledge the need for change
  • Be willing to RE-LEARN and break old cycles or patterns
  • READ Self-help books and Article or listen to Audio CDs and the likes – Knowledge is Power is the Key
  • Enlist the HELP of a Personal Development Life coach or a Counsellor
  • Surround yourself with PEOPLE who exhibit the change you desire  
    • – The power of Association
  • Believe in yourself and Trust God to help you get through it.

Overcoming Distractions, Discouragement, and Discord

By
Life is full of light and darkness.   What matters most is what we choose to focus on and knowing what to let go of.   We've all wrestled with the demons of distractions, discouragement, and discord from time to time.   The sooner we learn to destroy them effectively, the sooner we will start walking into our destiny.   In this post, we will look at strategies to defeat these demons to ensure that they don't continue to disrupt our lives and career.   DISTRACTION : According to Google, distraction is anything that prevents us from giving our full attention to something else.   That said, distraction is not all bad. Sometimes we need to divert our attention from one thing or the other lest we become obsessive-compulsive about it—which is no good in the end. Even the scripture tells us there is a time and a season for everything. Distraction can be mental, actual, emotional, or spiritual.   It can be pleasurable or painful. It's all a matter of...

MEDITATION: The how and why

By
Meditation is an ancient practice that holds the key to inner peace, self-relaxation, and personal growth. It can be your path to tranquility, clarity of thought, and the attainment of your loftiest aspirations. So, why should you meditate, and how can you harness its incredible potential?

X Don't Call Me Strong, Don't Call Me Resilient! Stop The Madness

By
  Dear Black People, What I am about to say may sound controversial to some, but this is a subject that I am passionate about.  It behooves me to speak to the plentitude of posts and podcasts going against the strong Black woman and resilient narratives as stigmatizing to the Black woman in particular. I am a Black woman who considers herself strong and resilient. I teach my daughters to be strong and resilient. I teach my clients to be strong and resilient, and I am proud to say it. I will remain strong in the Lord.  I get that they are trying to decolonize certain stereotypical behaviour that continues to permeate society, but what does being strong have to do with decolonization? Our strength is like our blackness. It is what sets us apart. If Black women were not strong, there would be nothing left to decolonize—we would be extinct. My strength is in my weaknesses. So don’t apologize for calling me strong. Change degrading behaviour, and that will be enough for me. Yo...
