I Have A Question For You, Yah



What did you do in the past seven days?

What things did you learn? What life lessons did you draw from them?  What challenges did you face?
One of the most effective techniques for putting your life on track is the weekly review. I usually take an hour or two on Sunday to carefully examine the preceding week and ask myself the above questions. Everything I did wrong in the past week I take steps to learn from so I won’t repeat those mistakes. I will also examine my successes looking to see what strengths I possess allowed me to make those small accomplishments.
This weekly evaluation will allow you to have some clear insight into your progress or lack thereof. If you can’t find anything you’ve learned from the past week then it was wasted. When you take a look at your past week, looking at what you have learned and how you have improved yourself, you can really see how appropriately you are using your time.
Just remember that this week has past. Don’t beat yourself up about wasted time or your failures, focus instead on how you can use that knowledge to avoid succumbing to the same faults in the week ahead.
Use this process to motivate you in your week ahead. Looking back at your past week can be a very motivating exercise because it gives you the tools to put into focus what is important to you. Now that you know what you did wrong, and more importantly, why it went wrong, you can take steps to change so that the week ahead will be better.
The next step is to decide what you want to accomplish in the week ahead. Decide what you want to pay attention to and focus on. Using the problems you encountered last week, come up with solutions to possible problems that might come up in the week ahead. So if you had a dietary goal and blew it on a bag of Oreo’s, then come up with some steps to preventing that from happening in the next week.
Got it? Great! Now, go and try it. Don't worry, God has your back. Kiss Kiss.

Learning from my Wrong

I am incredibly hard on myself when it comes to being wrong and making big decisions in life. But, being wrong isn't as bad as we make it out to be. I have made many mistakes and I have discovered few lessons from my experiences. When I look back on my choices from a year ago, I always hope to find a few decisions that seem stupid now because that means I have grown. If you only live in the safety zone where you know you can’t mess up, then you’ll never unleash your true potential.  There is no reason to be depressed or give up simply because you made a few wrong choices. Even more crucial, you must try your best every time because it is the effort and the practice that drives the learning process. They are essential, even if you fail. Realize that no single choice is destined to fail, but that occasional failure is the cost you have to pay if you want to be right. 

We need men

am all about women empowerment. Matter of fact, it is safe to say, I am a feminist. But, when it comes to gender equality, is the scale balance, or starting to tip over? To have a successful community, a successful nation, we need both women and men to succeed equally. We need men to succeed; we need them to marry and raise strong children; we need men as much as women if we are to rebuild the family. Given the daily attacks on manhood in our media and our culture, the odds of creating strong, good men are ever shrinking. Unless we give the same attention to our boys and young men that we give to their female counterparts, the situation will only grow worse. Without a determined effort to raise our sons with the same sense of hope and aspiration given our daughters, to let them know that masculinity is as positive a value as femininity, to teach them honor, courage, and virtue, we will see even fewer intact families, an ongoing sense of hopelessness and despair a
