Power of small goals and self appreciation

 Have you ever heard that voice inside your head telling you that you can't?I know it well.The one that if you let it,grows int a mountain of self doubt,making you believe you can't do it.But here's is the thing, I'm a recreational runner,just like many of you and I've learned a trick to overcome this challenge.

As a runner ,facing difficulties is a part of the journey.When the going gets tough, I've found that's setting shorter targets makes a long run seem more manageable.Its like breaking a mountain into small hills,and you can apply this to life as well.

So when the negative voice starts creeping in,do whatever it takes to drown it out.set smaller goals,and when you achieve them don't forget to celebrate your victory.Life is  like a race and setting smaller targets leads you to the finish line .

And here is a little secret ,you are your biggest supporter and cheerleader.sure others will cheer you  on but it starts with you.Life will throw you in all directions,but guess what you are the captain sail through.Stand strong ,focus and make changes  when needed.Always remember to appreciate and thank yourself , no matter how small the achievement.You got this  ship in control sail to your destination safe.

Yours

Kajad Ndivo.

I've been there , gripping onto things that drained  me emotionally  and physically.Its a challenging place, especially when fear of the future keeps you hanging on.But here's is the deal, sometimes you need to say enough is enough,let go and move  forward.when you wake up from.this brain slumber ,its a rebirth like no other.Holding onto the wrong things and People might block better opportunities and caring people from coming into your life ,and when you let go you experience great freedom like no other,you set yourself free. So screw the negativity,the fear, breathe and embrace a fresh start.Dont waste time knocking on doors where you're not welcome.The more you keep knocking,the more delusional and desperate you look.As much as you care,you need to walk away in fact run and don't give people a chance to treat you like a door mat,you are better than that. In life don't be like a toilet paper,w

A journey to self discovery

As the the year draws to a close,it's that time again-reflecting on resolutions. Did you set any last year? Did you achieve them? I ,like many made a few resolutions,but the outcome surprised me. At this point last year,I found myself longing for an extra source of income. Cue the typical internet search :"how to make money online."However,the search results seemed like an endless loop of videos,blogs and tantalising offers that required payment and subscription. It felt ironic_ I'm seeking ways to make money,yet I'm asked to spend money to access the information 😭😭😭, frustrating right? Eventually,I shelved the pursuit of wealth and redirected my focus inward.Working on myself became the priority.what transpired was unexpected yet transformative.I started feeling better_happier, healthier,more rested_and my overall performance improved.it was a shift from chasing money to embracing self_care. I began incorporating activities that invigorated me:running, cycling

 Have you ever looked at someone and admired them thinking they got their shit together only to find out they're are secretly struggling with heavy burdens?It's common experience we all face from time to time, carrying unseen weights while longing for someone to share our load. We all crave a safe space to unload our burdens,but it's essential to tread carefully.Offering support is noble ,but I've learned first hand the importance of offloading my own luggage before extending a helping hand.Recently ,I found myself eager to assist someone,only to realize I had my own struggles to confront.Its was a poignant reminder that recognizing our own limits and admitting when to seek help is crucial.just like physicall spaces,we each have our capacity and overloading ourselves only leads to frustration and stress. Carrying more than we can handle only adds to our burden perpetuating a cycle of strain and exhaustion this not able to lend a hand in any way.Managing our loads wisely
