@ the appointed time

Reflecting back to the time when we were young. We grew up with our cousins, we would play together, walk to school together, we would stand in a queue for juice/bread/fruit or hair cut. When we had a trip at school, we would all stand in a queue waiting for the bus to take us to our destination. Some have missed the opportunity of being/sitting with their friends in the bus because it was full and they had to cut the line and take you to another bus. This reminds me of the time I went to book for my learners license, we all know the situation there, I moved from one chair to another patiently grinding my teeth not knowing on which position should I sit due to tiredness.As I was about to go in that room for eye test I got cut. I never got angry as compared to when I was young. I now understand that everything happen at the right time.

When we were young myself and my cousins we all had dreams some came true and others not yet. What do we do? We keep on pushing. A mistake we make as people is to put ourselves under pressure by wanting everything to happen now.

Looking at what is happening in the world today we all don't have time to wait. Very few matriculants want to go to school full time, they opt for correspondence but come weekend they are parting their heads off. What happened to sacrifice? Some are in jail because they never wanted to work and earn a living. Some did abortion because they were not ready to be mothers. We have those who are crying their lungs out because they want a child now and it is not yet time.There is a handsome gentleman who is in a wrong marriage because he never took his time to know her.

The earlier we take time in doing certain thing the better. Everything happens @ the appointed time.

Lets take right decisions at the right time we will reap the benefits fresh from our creator!

There is No Try, Only Do!

There is No Try, Only Do!

We often think of failure as the inability to accomplish a certain objective. We give it our best shot and the results are less than favourable. We’ve failed. Ah, but does that have to be the end of the story? ONLY if we stop trying after we experience the less than favourable results.

Do yourself a favour and change your definition of failure right now. Here is a new definition of failure:

Not having a plan, not working a plan, and giving up too soon.
In the history of achievers, there was an attempt to do it again and again. If you have “failed” at anything in the past, be honest with yourself: How many times did you try? Did you give it a heartfelt effort and then give up when it seemed too hard? Did you let yourself become intimidated by challenge, or disempowered by negative comments from friends and colleagues?

Though you may believe that it was out of your hands, it is important to understand something.

You made a choice to fail

You gave up. You stopped trying. It doesn’t matter what the reason were, even though they may have seemed perfectly logical at the time. The fact is, you allowed external conditions erode your motivation and determination, and you threw in a towel.
If you made the choice to fail, you can also make a choice to succeed

With the right attitude, focused action steps and a solemn vow to never give up, success will be yours. Don’t approach your goals with an attitude of “try” only an attitude of DO!

“Trying” means you are not going to give it your all. “Doing” means that failure is not an option.


This is your life and you must decide that there is no going back, no giving up, no giving in – NO MATTER WHAT!

You are connected

 You are connected!

I could not be selfish and not share this with you, a couple of days myself and my sister were phoning our friends and sharing a very powerful piece, and that was fulfilling to us. Continue reading with understanding.

A robot was knocked by a truck and there was something amazing in it while it was facing down and very close to the floor.While the other robot opposite it is on caution, it would also be on caution, when it is open for traffic to proceed the same happened to the robot facing down. Isn't that amazing? What was funny is that we all focus our attention on the robot that is upright not the one facing down.

In life there are people who are like that robot that was hit by a truck. The robot facing down kept on responding to the traffic.I mean it was still connected and there was power.

Are you going through challenges? whatever it is, you are bigger than it, you are a winner! you can overcome it!

You are like that robot connected and full of power.Whatever it is you are facing today, can be resolved. My friend let me tell you, what is important is that you are still connected, not to the things of the world but to your creator. When everybody is looking at those who are standing, those who are making it, worry not cause you are connected, it is only that not everybody can see it.

There is a possibility that when it is time for the robot to be fixed, new material will be used to make it stronger than before and will never be broken again. There is a possibility that when a truck hit that robot again that truck will be damaged and the robot will only have scratches and require only to be painted after the incident. You are powerful beyond measure and you are a winner. There is a champion in you.

No matter how hard life has been,keep your head up. Remember you are connected!

Being free

Human beings are freeborn, this simply means that we are not born in slavery but with the power or right to act, speak, and think freely. Very few people understand what freedom means!

Freedom does not only have to be expected from external environment, it is also internal. South Africans and other countries in the world fought for freedom and there are still continuing with the fight. It is amazing that there are those who have freedom right on the faces but they are conditioned by oppression mentality and victim mentality.
Lets think about the freedom that those in prison are wishing for, freedom that an abused women is longing for, freedom that a hospitalised young person want, freedom from poverty, freedom that a drug addict needs, freedom that we all deserve as human beings.

Freedom starts with YOU. Free yourself from worries, guilt, fear, unforgiveness, and negative thoughts.
During my conversation with people I often hear them say “I don’t know what to do”. Let me tell you, there is something you can do. You have a CHOICE. If you don’t do something about your situation, it is still a choice. Not to do anything about it!

Free yourself from everything that does not benefit you. You have been blessed with all the equipment which is a mind to think, two hands to work and two eyes to see opportunities where no one else sees them. God gave to all. BE WISE!

Which voice sounds the loudest?

Which sounds the loudest to you?

• is it a cry of a new born?
• could it be a sound of a buses,taxis and trucks during traffic? or a train in motion and a plane passing?
• or is it a sound of a 21 gun shot during a funeral of a policeman?
• maybe masses toyi, toying in the streets of Johannesburg?
• somebody can say ' my neighbours are very loud people'
• or could it be a sound of Chiefs and Pirates fans at a soccer field?
• and to some it can be sounds of horses racing at a Durban July event?

All the voices and sound are there but they cannot make us or break us. We got to look beyond what we see and hear. There is a lot of voices in the world, and there are different sounds. We have animals that have different cry, lifestyle and stature. If a lion can bark , that will be a shock to the whole world.As people we need to be able to focus on our goal and dreams. When we do that we able to hear other sounds and voices and that teaches us to appreciate it more and not stress about it.

If there is one voice that we should listen to is the 'inner voice'. It sounds louder than the rest. It is God given and it pushes us closer to the main goal. Viva Inner Voice Viva!!!

Obsession about celebrities

I ask myself why is there so much obsession on celebrities. We tend to focus on their achievement rather than learning from the obstacles  they faced towards succeeding,and how they won the battle. Every celebrity had to start somewhere. They had their downfalls.

I always pass a joke and say to people  we are all celebrities. Some look at me with shock. The difference between us and  them is that they appear on television, magazines and we listen to them on radio.  What makes us clebrities is our uniqueness. As a twin, I could speak like my sister, walk like her but  I will never be her. 

Celebrities are human, we went to school with them, we used to stand at the corners with them, we went to church with them, we even shared and rented flats with them. They were our neighbours and still are. 

We identify too much with them to a point where we loose ourselves in the process. That leads to obsession.We are all born unique and different. There is nothing wrong with being a fan, seeing a celebritiy as a mentor, but you cannot be that person. All you can do is learn from celebrities and move on.

STOP shadowing celebrities, Live your life. You are an ORIGIONAL born to CREATE!

Prepare for war!

Being in the world means war. Are you prepared to fight? Do you know why the fight? Any idea of what you are fighting for? Do you believe that you can win?

What many people are doing is just fighting. There are those who are fighting but they do not know why they fight. There are those who want to fight but the do not have weapons. Prepare for war. You cannot go for war without  a weapon or the right weapon!

Weapons needed to win in the world:-

• In the world today you need a weapon called faith
• You need a weapon called self belief
• You need a weapon called knowledge
• You need a weapon called confidence
• You need a weapon called embracing change
• You need aweapon called moving on
• You need a weapon called creativity
• You need a weapon called focus
• You need a weapon called courage

• You need a weapon called love
• You need aweapon called persevearance
• You need a weapon called patience
• You need a weapon called networking
• You need to understand your environment so that you choose the right weapon

Having said all this you choose which weapon will work during the war. If you are not prepared for war you are simply accepting defeat without fighting.

Winning is not for cowards!!      
The secret is in preparation!!
