JOURNEY TO SELF-IMPROVEMENT PART 1

 

So for about a month and a half now I’ve decided that I want/need change in my life or should I say I think i’ve reached the point in my life (yeah i know I’m only 21) that I know that there is more to it. More to waking up everyday, taking a shower, walking my dog, feeding him and my cat then going to work, then going home. Of course the occasional outings, events, parties, etc. I must say I didn’t come to this realisation and decision just on my own. This guy I met at work for about two months now maybe. He seems to have everything planned out for his life, which i admire about him so I took that seriously.

    Honestly guys, I want so much out of life. I want to finish college, travel, explore new cultures, meet new people,learn a new language, party (like i haven’t done enough of that lol) , become successful(financially stable) and just.. happy. 
    Okay, self improvement and personal development. How to go about it. Now, disclaimer, I’m no expert. Lol like not at all. Just something I’m determined and passionate about and why should I not share it. 
First thing should be is to set out goals. I mean why else do you want to improve ? What results would you like? One of my goals is to become successful. How broad is that right ? lol. Let me break it down : I need to change my mindset, I need to save, try to maintain positive thoughts, believe in myself, live with intensity meaning to be strong and my put everything into everything I do. Lastly, prayer… SELF-DISCIPLINE IS THE KEY. 

  I’ve read that self-improvement presents new opportunities. It increases your self esteem which results in becoming a better person. My challenge is letting go of the past, getting out my comfort zone and to commit to growing. 

Ok bleh enough get to the point right? The best way I believe to improve os by setting time by yourself and reading and researching. So far to be honest lol, I’ve read one book, Your a Badass: How to Stop Doubting your Greatness and start living an Awesome Life by Jen sincere. Its a good read and I recommend it fully. A must read that I’m going to order is Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. I’ve read couple pages and I’m impressed and excited to start. 

To be continued… ! 🙂

First Blog Post

“Time is the master…”

                                     Lol. My history teacher back in high school said that to us probably every class we had and it still puts a smile on my face.(Oh how I miss High school) At the time back in grade 10 we weren't serious as we should have been about school. Then came grade 12 many and he would still say to us in his matter-of-fact tone,"time is the master". These four words did not mean as much to me as it does now. I've graduated high school (this year makes 2 :o) , experienced college and the work environment somewhat. And after then I realise that time truly is.
Ok so what does this means to me? Why did it take so long for me to realise? I've become aware that (regrettably) so many things have changed in my life so quickly that it really shocks me. Changes such as friends,family,school, my future .. just life on the whole. Time flew. I feel that I should be in a better position or place in my life by now. Causes of this are : laziness, procrastination, selfishness,pride,money. Three years ago I would have never thought this is where i would be in life. To answer why it took me so long to realise this is because things were not aways like this well not this bad. Life was good. Now I'm not saying at all that my life is horrible and that i hate because I have myself to blame and it could be worse.  You may be asking why I'm i complaining or not doing anything to change. Well lol , i really don't know myself. What i can say is that I am definitely trying. Creating this blog and actually writing is a step. I could be sleeping now actually or watching movies but I said to myself let's do something different. I'm an aspiring journalist so write and share it. Another thing i want to touch on a bit but i'm a bit hesitant about it. Well anyway it's about the true master : God. I don't know who might read this but you may think too that God is and if life is not the way i want i should take it up with God. Well, firstly I do believe in God and here in the Bahamas it is what you can say christian or God-fearing place. So I'm fully aware. My issue is (briefly) is that I've went through the most horrific time in my life in 2014, my graduating year. My mom passed and  of course I was a mess but i think I recovered quickly (sometimes i think too quickly) anyway , i had many people who were here for me and I got told there is a reason why God would let you go through that.. for something better to happen and also I got don't question God. So eventually i accepted it and thought that i"ll be fine but now like i was describing in the beginning where I am in life is not where i want to be. So to me i guess yo can say i'm disappointing and I DO NOT BLAME God,I blame myself. Nonetheless i tuly feel that I need to strenghten my relationship with God.
Moving on, I can only hope that things will fall in place for me. That I will be able to go off to school in Canada, get a job, have my own money , travel the world,completely happy and continue enjoying life. Until then.. time wil continue to be the master..

Apologies if this was contradicitory or confusing, i started to ramble when i got in my feelings. 😦
