Be Intentional Series II: THOUGHTS

Happy New Year! I hope you had an amazing transition into the new year. I hope you are also enthusiastic about it and your expectations are high. First and foremost, I wish you the best in everything – I pray that you’ll become the best version of you and you shall achieve all that God has for you. Don’t accept defeat; don’t accept failure because you will win!

Today’s “Be Intentional” series is about thoughts. And if you haven’t noticed, the first part has been posted last month on joy. So, I noticed that some people aren’t interested in this new year new me charade and it makes me wonder why they’re not interested or should I say tired of becoming “new”. Being a new person has nothing to do with a new year. It has nothing to do with new clothes or forming a new attitude; it has everything to do with the mindset. And why wait till the 31st of every December to realized that it’s time to step up?

Each one of us is endowed with so many things that make us different in so many ways. In other words, God is not boring. Everyone put in a room displays the beauty about creations’ diversity but, we have one thing in common: our thoughts define us as individuals. Many people walk around feeling ugly and not worth anything because they believe that. There are so many beliefs: some people believe in the power of makeup cuz without it they’re not beautiful. Others believe they must look a certain way to have a girl or they must look a certain way to have a man. Every day, there’s something each one of us affirm and accept- we accept defeat, success, failure, anger, shame, pain, joy, peace, etc.

We win battles because we believe we can and we lose because we believe we will. The thing is if you believe you are winner, no circumstance under any circumstance will stop you. Sometimes we speak it out because we have affirmed it our minds. Successful people aren’t successful because they worked hard – they’re successful because they put their mind to it and they believe they will be and that pushed them to work at it. Whatever that comes out is because of what has been brewed in the mind. So, as we journey through this year, let’s be intentional about our thoughts. Let’s aim higher, let’s teach ourselves discipline, let’s teach ourselves hard work. Be on guard on what comes into your head because even if it doesn’t affect today it will affect tomorrow.

See you next time! And always, me love U!
