You are not here by accident, but by design. You are here to enrich and change the world with your presence, by radiating love and happiness. In so doing, you are helping others to revel in the joy of being alive and living with love, grace and gratitude. You will remember your purpose, when you connect to your inner nature, your soul. You are gifted with a spark of creativity but like most are totally unaware that your every thought is shaping your character and your reality.

You are what you think. It is an ongoing project as you are ever thinking, you can thus indeed become the person you always wanted to be. You do not have to remain stuck with negative, crude or rude labels given to you by others. Who cares that you were deemed a dunce at school, or saddled with horrible misnomers or that you were tongue-tied during the awkward adolescent years? That is history, done and dusted. You have the power to take back control by answering only to names that befit you, honour you. Nobody can make you feel anything without your consent, words only hurt when you give it credence. Now that you know that you have a super power, like everyone else, start using it, unlike everyone else. Though the power of thought is well documented most people prefer to exist in Lalaland, comforted by the lie that life is happening to them, that they are powerless victims, and worse, that they were born that way. You will know when you are your authentic self, that is when you are untouchable, commanding and a true creative force. Then you can claim that you were born that way. You are insulting the Creator when you blame your lazy-ass ways and bad habits of not taking care of your physical body with “I was born that way”. Whatever you decide that you are, whether or not you hide behind excuses of it is ‘too this or too that’, you will be correct. Anything and everything are only as much of an issue or excuse, as you decide to make it. 

Know this, that the only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.  Take the time to pause and scrutinise your thoughts and explore the hidden emotions you may be carrying.  Everyone has an internal guidance system, your inner wisdom which helps you understand yourself and your role in life. Learning to connect with your inner wisdom is vital for transformation and can be done in a myriad of ways. Reflection, meditation, mindfulness and journaling are a few ways to connect with your higher self.  How you feel about yourself and your capabilities is fundamental to your personal identity. Take time to explore your sense of Self and get to know yourself, your interests, likes, dislikes and passions. Nothing stops you from becoming the person you want to be. After all, you are what you believe yourself to be. It all starts with you. 

You were birthed here to make a difference in the world, and you negate yourself when you forget your purpose. Awaken to the greatness in you. Nobody else can make you, only you can create yourself. If you correct your mind, the rest of your life will fall in alignment. Remember, it is never too late to make a change, to be that person, the one you always wanted to be. Do the necessary to become that person now. Starting over is scary but also exciting, as you have the knowledge of lessons learnt and can create your perfect self and live your best life. You have greatness and unlimited potential in you. You just have to remember that. 

It is not the mountain we conquer but ourselves - Sir Edmund Hillary 

It is through overcoming our inner struggles that we are able to achieve great feats through self-mastery. 

If you correct your mind, the rest of life will fall into place - Lao Tzu 

When you are in control of your mind your life will be easier as you will be making better choices 

You are searching the world for treasure, but the real treasure is yourself - Rumi 

Ultimately, we forget that we are a spark off the Divine, each one uniquely and wonderfully made. Celebrate yourself, you are precious to God and your personage is greatly valued  

Knowing yourself makes living easier - Thibaut 

For if you know and understand yourself, you will be able to make better choices and decisions and to live a life in accord to your core values. It allows you to live your best life. 

What lies behind us and what lies before us, are tiny matters compared to what lies within us - Ralph Waldo Emerson 

Life only happens in the here and now. Our past self and our future self-have no power as power to live and create reside only in the present time, what lies within us creates us and our reality, always in the here and now and is thus the most powerful, but often neglected, time zone, as people tend to moan about the past and fret about the future, but pay little heed to the present.
