Oh yes, in this post I am celebrating action in the face of inaction, so you definitely read it correctly! Sometimes I feel stunted into silence! Why? Honestly at times it’s difficult to say it is just one reason, but I know writing this post creates an avenue many may be able to relate to!
Does it mean I am doing no more writing? By all means no!
Some very wise souls imparted knowledge that have surely helped me get where I am at present!
One was, “Keep writing!”
Another was to find a positive in every negative and to carefully think through each decision.
Through and through those have kept me going! These and the love and support of my circle. Some days it feels smaller than other days but keeping my focus on those who need me has been of paramount importance!
Surely at times some of these things must have crossed your mind:
1. Those who have said things about you!
2. Those who track every step you take and make an issue of it!
3. Those who judge you incorrectly because they don’t know you!
4. Those who can’t handle your energy!
5. Those who drain your energy!
Honestly, I have had my fair share, but such is life! There is more to come because this is the story of life!
And yes, if I got a dollar for every rotten thing that happened, no doubt, I would be a millionaire but that’s not my focus – just my way of laughing at some of the curve balls that have come my way.
But the reality is, people will always talk about you. Some do it to feel better about themselves, others do it because it disturbs them!
Keep your focus more than anything! Always focus on being a better version of yourself and always ensure that you do not let anyone distract you from your goals!
Those who cannot handle your energy will find every reason to stay away from you! They will also try to deter you in every way but never be so focused that you cannot see what you need to do rather than what you want to do. That’s the difference between being focused and being so self-absorbed that you cannot see what is right in front of you or you cannot see things for what they are.
Do not let anyone drain your energy. Your energy is just as precious as your time. More than anything do not give up! Focus on making memorable moments! Rise in the face of adversity and remember you are not alone!
This was something I coined as a verse:
“Little grains of water
Little grains of sand
Make the mighty ocean
And the mighty land.”
The aim of this is to always be reminded that no one and nothing is insignificant. Do not let anyone make you feel less than a person. If they do that to you, don’t think you need to repay the favour. Never underestimate your worth and your contribution.
From me to you: keep your focus! Love life and live life!
