Moments of Inspiration: Life Crush Everyday #LCE



Hello lovelies, how are we doing today. It is another wednesday and I think all over the world people have got the Woman Crush Wednesday "Campaign" going on, I love to research but I am not sure I want to know the history of this #WCW. I like it because some people use it to appreciate themselves and the women in their lives, so its not a bad idea at allllll...

So today being wednesday I have my own crush campaign going on and it is the Life Crush Everyday #LCE. Yaaay!!!


So this is quite simple, I just want us to take a look at how we have gone so far in life, How does it look to you? Does it reflect who you truly are? Does it make you feel you are on track in achieving your purpose on earth?

You definitely might not have gotten to where you want to be but you can only have a crush on your life if you feel it is on track. How well have you been a blessing to the lives of people? how well have you left a positive mark in the life of another, even if it is one person?  How well are things going as planned, if they are not have you ever asked yourself why?

If you do not understand a man you cannot crush on him. And if you do understand your life, very probably you will not have a crush on it...Uju .C

Monday Inspiration: Top Secret of the Week ( If you do not love yourself, you cannot love another)



Hello lovelies, How are we doing today? Personally I am still wondering if the weekend is over, but anyways it is and work has got us again *the hustle continues*

Last week was about getting our  vibes on for the new month and today lets talk a little about the secret of letting out love to others.

So yeah, I have always learnt to love but then I kept asking why do people still hate/dislike. If love is what we are meant to offer to everyone, why is there still hate and then I got the top secret, it was a secret I had to unravel for my own life and I will be sharing with you to the best of my ability.

Let us take this illustration, you go to a shop you see someone purchase something you would never imagine you can buy, what will be your reaction? I am sure you would start wondering what is this person using this for, How will someone even think of buying such an item.

The reason you hate it is because you know it will definitely not work for you but then it might just be super amazing for the next person.

Loving yourself is the greatest secret to loving another.

You can never give what you do not have, you cannot give me a pen when I ask you if you do not have one. That is how love is.

The reason why a few people tend not to interact with people properly is because they have refused to love themselves. You can only be ready to share in one's excitement if you too are excited. That's the simple logic behind it.

The ability to love yourself is the beginning of joy, love and happiness.

How do you go about loving yourself? it is easy, loving yourself is being yourself, being who you are without making additional effort to be someone else, you find out life is easy, simple, free and happy.

Being yourself helps you attract your type with little or no effort because what you wear, how you act can easily swing your people close to you.
Being yourself makes you love and appreciate who you really are, because you dress the way you love to and feel happy, eat the way you want to and feel happy.

But you tend to fall out of love with yourself if you decide to imprison your life and style by other people's judgement.

Because you will be forced to wear something people will compliment but then you will not be happy, eat with a fork and knife with a fake smile when it is sweeter and easier for you to eat tidy with your hands and laugh about it.

The love for self I say once again is derived from being yourself and accepting you for who you are and if you must change your style or anything about you, change it to suite who you are not people's compliment.

Appreciate yourself, love yourself, be happy about who you are and the love you have for yourself will be well packaged and ready to deliver to someone else.

A photocopy of an item can never be compared to an original.

Be original, be yourself and let love flow from within you.

Dance when you want to, sing when you want to, eat when you want to and stay happy because you have to.

So it is up to you.. Will you make conscious effort to start loving yourself? What did you imagine you hated for no reason? Kindly share in the comment box below.

Go through this week LIVING YOUR LIFE AND LOVING YOURSELF.

My quote for the week: Life is too short to be anything but happy.

Moments of Inspiration: Permission Taker or Action Taker, which are you?

I want to go to the market and buy something, please can I go? Oh sure you can. Please I want to go and take the best from life, will you allow me?

Sister and brothers is it everything we take permission for? My second question is the subject I want to talk about today. 

There are a few things in life we do not need anyone's permission for and they include:
-To Exist
-To be happy
-To create your plans and vision for living.


You do not need anyone's permission to exist. You were not created to subject your existence to anyone. So do not hold yourself back with your own hands.

You obviously do not need any permission to be happy. Like seriously? Laugh, jump, scatter the place, feel happy. Anyone that is angry should please be angry. Your happiness is your choice and you can decide to stay happy every single second of your life. (which I tell you is the best decision).

And finally you do not need permission to own a vision and a plan.

You might be asking, how don't I need permission, what is a mentor for? A mentor gives advice but does not create your plan/vision and has no right to write it off. A mentor just tells you ways to go about becoming successful with your plan. You are liable for your failures/success.

You don't have to take permission for your life if you must get to your place of destination. Sometimes you have to take the move because the more you keep waiting and take for granted your plans, the more you keep limiting yourselves. Most times without being bias, the people we try to take permission from are people that may intentionally want to slow us down, you wont blame them it's because you gave them the room to. The only persons you are permitted to seek permission from is YOU and your CREATOR

I actually learnt something new and I started looking up as often as i can in a day. Why? You may ask, it is because I want to walk in the consciousness of reminding myself that there is one who is seated above and watching all of us here on earth. and since i started that I tell you, there is nothing that I feel I want that I wont get, except it is not the best for me.

What am I saying? We do not need permission from anybody about life asides the Creator, if we must get anything from man then what we need are the ideas and they come from mentors. But if you have a plan/vision and you feel someone can tell you it is right or wrong, then that's far from the truth.

Our Creator to a large extent has even let us go, he said we should write the vision, make it plain and run with it. (Hab. 2:2 Paraphrased) He did not say seek permission then run with it.

The word also says "Plans go wrong for lack of advice; many advisers bring success." So you must have your plan first and seek advice. Nobody creates your plan for you.

So many people spend their lives waiting and preparing to live. They complain about a job they hate, how everything seems to go wrong, or how it’s just “not the right time.”

It’s like the whole world is conspiring against them. But is it?

When you make out the world to be a place that snuffs out your dreams, where nothing goes your way, then that’s what it will be but when you take control and open yourself to possibilities and have faith in allowing good things to happen, there’s a much better chance that your dreams won’t be just dreams anymore, they’ll be reality.

You do not go to a mentor and start looking, you go to a mentor when you have your plans written and you need ADVICE not permission to write your plans.

It is high time you owned your life,start taking action and start living. Yipeee....

So lets hear from you What are the things in your life that you have been ‘waiting for permission for,’ and what can you do about it TODAY? Share your story in the comments below.

Because I'm happy


Hello lovelies, hi hi..*hiding in my closet to type this post* as I am breaking my blogging schedule. But I just had to *am sorry* BECAUSE I AM HAPPY :))))))).

Yaay! It feels so good to be happy, it is a period of jumping around, smiling away, feeling beautiful, feeling like you do not have worries at the time and you are just living.

But then I wonder why can't this just be everyday *sighs*

Your happiness can only be everyday if you CHOOSE to make it so.

Guess someone is feeling as excited like myself, if yes ask yourself what actually made you happy today and why cant it happen every day.

Happiness is a choice, it is not bought with money, it is not said in words but it comes from Within. It comes from your inside.

The only place you loose happiness is within you and the only place you also find happiness is within you.

It is your sole option to decide to know the things that get at you and things that you let go. Most people have lost their happiness because they pick at everything, everyone says to them at every time. Kilode? Haba!!!  Why so angry?.

Life is a walk way o, why not decide to catwalk so that others will see. Make people vex instead of making yourself vex. When people try to get at you ignore the depth of their words and give a smile in return. (NOT SO EASY THOUGH, BUT IT IS POSSIBLE AND YOU WILL NEVER KNOW UNTIL YOU TRY)

Some people are just set on a mission to annoy and a number of us are also receptive of their annoying self. It really should not be that way.

Think deep about this:

Whatever negative word people say to you does not determine the outcome of your life.

If that is so why waste time on what does not really matter, when you can be happy, jumpy, singing and clapping and working towards that mega future...

So are you ready to make everyday a happy day. Be the happiness virus carrier.

So if yes...lets dance together.....Where is Pharell?..  PHARELLLL!!! Oh here he goes....

-

Stay happy always. LOoooove you loads. Yes you!!!

Monday Inspiration: A new month, a new dawn to give thanks.


Hello lovelies,

Happy newwwwww monthhhh!!! I am so excited Christmas is almost here *coversface* and as the year draws to a close, I smile every day and keep thanking God for his faithfulness. And I am here to encourage you to do same. 

It has been a long year indeed, from 01/2015 till 11/2015, 1 month count down. What more can we do than remain thankful for all we have received thus far, for the gift of life, health, joy, peace, protection, provision and every other Jara that you got which includes, car, house, Iyawo (wife), Oko (husband), baby and many more, it has been God.

If you were never grateful or if you have not made it a habit to be grateful, it's time. 

A new month, a new count and a new week. It’s time to sit back and just keep writing about how wonderful life has been. Let us keep the complaints aside this time. Just keep writing and keep saying thank you, because God is indeed the reason you have not lost it all. 

You complain about money, what if there was no life. You and I know God has been so so good to us.

If you do not know how to start I will help you. 

Open this scripture and see why you should be thankful.

Psalm 103: 2-10

2- Praise the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: 
3 - who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, 
4-who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, 
5-who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's. 
6-The LORD works righteousness and justice for all the oppressed. 
7-He made known his ways to Moses, his deeds to the people of Israel: 
8-The LORD is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love. 
9-He will not always accuse, nor will he harbor his anger forever; 10-he does not treat us as our sins deserve or repay us according to our iniquities. 

If you think the Lord has done nothing for you go through this scripture over and over again and ask yourself if you owe Him thanks and if you still think there is nothing to thank Him for, please thank Him for me. *youknowhowwedo*. 

So through this week and this month let us make thanksgiving a habit. To give thanks to God for all he has done as we start getting ready to write our next year resolution. Yaaay!!!

I am sure that from today you will start giving thanks and in your thanks I know the good Lord will fulfil all that your heart still desires.

Have an amazing week and stay thankful.

Moments of Inspiration: Every professional artist was first an amateur, and every story has a beginning.

One thing you can never avoid through a journey is the beginning- Uju .C

Hello lovelies. how are we doing today?

Today I will be dropping a few lines on giving a thumbs up to those already in the field and an advice to that one who is living in fear of starting.

Your beginning never defines your end -Uju .C.

Your beginning never defines an end but you can only have an end with a beginning. Like I said earlier I will be giving reference to two sets of people and I know most of us fall into either of the categories.

To you out there scared of starting your dream, living with the fear of will I ever get known or that sector is too occupied, no one will notice me or if I start what is the possibility of not failing. The people you are scared of getting into to be better than (little do you know that is who you are designed to be) are people who definitely had a beginning.  People who never knew what the journey would be like but decided to take a step and yeah, how amazing for them to be at the top of what they do today. Have you ever thought in this light? Have you ever seen the picture of the journey the way they saw it before they took that step. If NO, it is never too late for you to take that step today. "Fear of Failure" its inevitable, but the secret to conquering fear is by taking action and having faith, because truly faith without work is dead.

So when you feel like you are not worth it, remember that Every professional you see today was once an Amateur and even professionals still make mistakes.


To you out there already taking your journey and you feel things are not telling off the way they should, I must say congratulations to you because you have achieved one step, which is the beginning of the journey, but then when the road is rough what is the way out, do you end the journey or do you turn back or better still do you think of how important the end of this journey is and believe that there are ways for  a solution?. If I were you I will choose the latter and what is this solution if I must ask? The solution is taking Stock, YES I said it. Taking STOCK of what you have done thus far, how far in this journey have you come and what ways did you ride through.

Our ability to take stock of the beginning till today therein lies the solution you seek.

For God has given us wisdom and a sound mind.

Take Stock, draw up a solution, Take Action and work in faith.

The secret of starting and continuing is simple. TAKING ACTION with FAITH.

ARE WE READY TO START NOW? if yes..then lets make this happen, write out that dream and make it plain, then take action and run with it, with your application of faith.

Take stock, draw up a solution , take action with faith...


I believe you too can be that PROFESSIONAL.

If you have something you want us to talk about, please do not fail to contact me via mail and I will be glad to journey with you.

Monday Inspiration: Make a Push for Yourself



Hello lovelies. how was the weekend?, It is a new week, an amazing one to look forward to.

Today I will be giving us a quote for the week to keep us going through this week, one you should not just read and ignore but read and act on it because in your actions lies your result.

I know you have heard a lot concerning your situation but then you are limited to a change because you do not take action.

So the quote from me to you this week is:

If you do not PUSH yourself, you will keep being PUSHED around - Uju .C

The person in you wants to come out but it is waiting for that push, go ahead and make that happen today and this week, stop the procrastination, stop being told what to do at all times when you actually know what to do.

Sometimes you should have your own rules, live and walk by them, it is a new week of possibility,
Ask yourself AM I PUSHING MYSELF ENOUGH OR AM I LETTING PEOPLE PUSH ME AROUND?

Have an amazing and productive week.
