When fear threatens to cloud you, don’t let it. If
fear is what pushes you to do something, make a decision DON’T DO IT, DON’T
MAKE IT! If fear is the reason for putting something off, for procrastinating
with an important decision, DO IT WITHOUT DELAY.
The success and happiness of your thirties is
directly correlated to the decisions you make in your 20’s. People will always
feel they know what’s good for you. Take the advice, nod, even mull it over,
but in the end, do what YOUR HEART feels is right for YOU.
When faced with a decision, ask yourself three
questions; is this the right decision? Is it for the right
reasons?Is it the right time? If your answer is YES! YES! YES! You
won’t go far wrong in life.
In everything you choose to do, be kind. Kindness
is a rare commodity; it puts you and your interests behind that of the next
person, not just in grand gestures, but even in the little things. It emanates
from the heart, and is felt by those who cannot be fooled by insincerity. A
shortcut to morality is the golden rule of life; ‘do unto others as you would
have them do unto you’ you’ll discover that this really is the start of wisdom
and righteousness.
And while we’re on the subject of morality,
relationships will NEVER be clear, it isn’t the nature of things. But you can
help yourself by doing an exercise; make 3 lists: 1. What you ‘want’ in
the man you love 2. What you would ‘like’ in the man you love 3. What you will
not tolerate in any man in your life.
And stick to this list…preferably the first list.
Standards dictate who we let into our heart, who stays there, and who deserves
to be there. The more you compromise with these lists, the longer it will take
to find your soulmate.
While looking for him, never covet what another
woman has. Let what is meant to be yours, come to you. This habit people have
of running in packs isn’t all that healthy either, after all the saying goes
‘relationSHIPS sink when they have too many passengers. You don’t need to let
everybody in. And while you’re at it, Jealousy sucks! Try being on the
receiving end of it, you’ll understand how damaging it can be to any
relationship. Spending a fun weekend with someone is not enough to know if you
really like them. You only really get to know people in their reactions when
things are not going their way, and over a prolonged period. Further down the
line when you think it’s a done deal, it’s still NEVER going to be ok to have
sex in your parents house, unless you’re married. Get over it!
There’s never going to come a time when you should
stop feeding the child in you. It’s the part of you which will always
experience the real beauty of life, afresh, every time. Don’t ever be afraid of
your own company. For anyone to love being with you, you must first love being
with yourself. Wear your hair EXACTLY as you please. Society will have to get
used to it. When you are choosing clothes think about what this will tell
people about you when you wear them…and always be true to who you are. Everything
on the outside should be a further expression of what is on the inside. Save!
Yes, now IS the right time to do so.
There will be rough times, and you must survive
your own traumas, but don’t fall victim to your story. Heal. Release. Move on.
Thrive! It’s your motivation which will dictate the results of ANY action.
Always try to come from a good place. It will show.
My darling you’ll never stop learning, and, while education is a leveler, LIFE
is the best teacher. Best case scenario, use both. Reading is a joy! Read! It’s
never too late to learn to love books. But if the books you’re reading don’t
make you a better person, you’re reading the wrong books. Quality of life is
what you give to yourself. Not what your job or your relationship gives you.
Decide what you love to do, and start doing it
TODAY.
