themselves.
Welcome to my blog where we discuss everyday issues, challenges and opportunities abound.

Don’t Surrender To Any Definitions — You Can Decide Who You Are
It’s the ultimate cliché and something we all hear a
thousand times over: to be truly happy, you need to start with yourself. But
how often do we not live up to this? Media outlets are bombarding us with
images of how we should look, society is telling us how we should act, and
people with limited beliefs are telling us how we should feel.
A lot of the time, we are forced to define ourselves
by other people’s ideas and perspectives. We seem to care too much about what
other people think of us and live our lives pleasing or conforming to what
society as a whole tells us is right.

How to Develop a Mindset for Success
If you’d like to be more successful in your life,
working on your mindset can greatly help you.
Here’s how to develop a mindset for success.

Learn to think big
In The Magic of Thinking Big, author David

We try to short circuit the process, but we easily forget that most of the
lasting success and great things we see around today were product of moments of
undescribable pains.
We try by all means to avoid anything that will bring pain in the process, but very few understand that PAIN is an essential commodity we must consciously or unconsciously become familiar with or embrace as a part of our life as we live a purpose driven life.
