BECOMING A BETTER YOU.

The month of January has gone by really fast and I cannot believe that it is the last Tuesday of the month already. Let us have a quick recap of our discussions in the past 4 weeks. Just as many of us have new year resolutions at the beginning of the year, we thought it was important to discuss certain things that we ought to start the year with so that we are able to follow through till the end of the year and even in future years.

The first thing we said is that this year, we all need to let go and let God. What this means is that we should let go of past mistakes and errors and allow God work in us and through us. The second thing we talked about is the need for us to be joyful. We stressed the fact that a lot of things will happen and we might get annoyed or frustrated but we must always wear our joy hats and not allow such situations take our joy away. 

Being prayerful is key and this was the third thing we dealt with. We should surrender all our desires concerning our relationship/marriage and in fact everything that concerns us to God because He cares for us and knows everything we need. Last week, we emphasised the need to stay away from unhealthy relationships. You do not have to be close friends with people that do not mean well for you and people that will make your life worse instead of making it better.

This week, I will like to encourage us to develop ourselves both now and in future years. Developing ones self means taking drastic steps to becoming a BETTER person. How can we develop ourselves? How can we become better people? We can develop ourselves by engaging in activities that would make us better and not make us worse than we were last year. We all should form the habit of reading books (this is one that I have not been so great at but whenever I read a book, I gain knowledge and that gets me excited). We should also attend programs that are centered around things that are important to us.

We all have one character or the other that needs to be worked on. We have one or two bad habits that we know are not good for us and even affect the people close to us. This year it is adviceable that we build good character and drop bad habits. This is a step to becoming a better person. Let us choose to be people of integrity, people that are loyal, trust worthy etc. Registering for courses (professional or non- professional) is not a bad idea - this would help us a lot in becoming better as we would become knowledgeable in certain areas of interest.

This year, we all should connect with people, be friendly but we need to be very careful so that we do not get wrongly influenced. We all should make the decision to be better people and make impacts in as many lives as we can impact. Get close to God, He will make your life sweet and better than it has ever been. There will be challenges but you can be sure that they would not last long. 

In taking steps to being a better person, we have to be weary of making excuses. Instead of making excuses, let us challenge ourselves to do the impossible. Be a better you and you will be happy.

Thank you so much for stopping by, we hope to see you next week.

OneLove,
