Mixed Feelings...
A blink of an eye and the weekends are over. Back to work. A short week ahead because of the Good Friday hols but so much more to cover at work. Despite of uncertanties that I am facing, I know that my words frame my future and thus shape my week ahead and in the long run, my entire life. Thus, I am determined to SPEAK positively into every aspect of my life!
Do you realised that you don't need to learn how to be negative or even try to be negative? We are all born to be negative naturally! Thus, its important that we always keep and maintain a positive mindset about everything that is happening around us including those things that we wished we had but we don't have at this current moment. Many things are fighting for our attention every single day but the important thing is which one do we give our attention to? Because that will be the one thing that will shape your attitude, beliefs and ultimately convictions.
I shared in my earlier posts on how 2007 is going to be the best year yet and last week; God has lifted another veil on how 2007 is going to be the best year yet. As I moved into a new chapter of my walk with Him, I know that though its going to be challenging, but yet new things are going to be accomplised and new fruits are going to be borne forth. :) Also had dinner with Jus after practice the other day and its been a long time since we last caught up and everytime we share, it seems like there is no end to what we can share or want to share. Shared with him the desires of my heart and he shared his too.
Insecurity is not a norm. Feeling insecure is a deficiency. And the worst manifestation of insecurity appears when you impose it on a loved one; be it a friend, partner or family member. Do I feel insecure at times? Yes. Do I feel that I am out of the pack at times? Yes. But I realised that we have to reach a stage of our lives that we stop asking questions on why and how people treat us or look at us in a certain manner and start doing something about it. For me personally, it's about getting out of the state of self pity at times and take a look around to realise how fortunate I am as compared to my peers or people around me.
Life cannot never be perfect. I used to think that maybe when something I desire happens, then life would be perfect but at the same time, problems will never end and with each passing year, the problems you faced increase in difficulty and complexity right?
Thus what is important is that we do and live each day to the best of our ability; knowing that we have given our best.
Today is April 2, and officially we have passed the 3 month mark of the year. What do I expect to see in the next few months of the year? What are my goals and targets that I've yet to fulfil thus far. Below is a list of them(not in order of priority):
1) Be able to save a steady amount every month to meet my pre-determined target by end 2007.
2) Be able to love and care for every person that I know.
3) To enter into a relationship and life long convenant with (...)
4) To secure a permanent position within the organisation.
5) To see my family members giving their hearts to Christ.
6) To be more patient and less critical of others.
7) To purchase a small car.
8) Equate my personal life to my public life totally.
9) To be fitter and leaner by losing 2-3 kg of my weight.
10) To have flawless skin.
11) To rise up as a choir helper.
Lastly, I just want to say: Talk is cheap but only action in the right times is priceless.
God bless all.
Glenn.
