Update Yourself

Don't get so invested and carried away by 'work' that you forget to invest in yourself.

If you are relieved of your present position today, will your present skills be sufficient enough to empower you either as an employer or employee?

As a business manager, have you acquired the latest skills in managing your organisation's resources?

You might say, "I have experience in this! Do u know how many years I've worked in this position?! I don't need any skill because my experience is enough!"

Experience is good, but it is in the past. Your experience with Windows 97 will not make you function well in the era of Windows 10.

You need up-to-date skills in order to be relevant in this dynamic age.

I Blame Myself

One empath struggle I constantly battle with is always feeling responsible for how I am treated by others. When someone does or says something hurtful to me, my first thought is that I caused it. "If I had respected myself enough to establish boundaries, X wouldn't have had the audacity to do this" "If I had worked harder on my career, I wouldn't be here to receive X treatment" The crazy list goes on... Once in a while I speak up immediately but most of the time I blame myself. I always expect more from myself and feel I shouldn't have put myself in a position to be hurt. Writing about it now makes me realize how hard I am on myself. It just doesn't make sense to be hard on the one person that you have. The one who's been with you true thick and thin - YOURSELF. How hard can it be to be kind to yourself?

I hope I stay this time.  A lot has been happening, one minute I am optimistic about life and the next I doubt my life choices.  Although I know I have made more of good choices, I can't help beating myelf up at every mistake.  Making mistakes make me feel like the dog that goes back to it's votim- silly.  Here I am moping about just one error, unable to engage in any useful task. It's funny how I can type here but cannot carry out my writing tasks. Anger is truly semi madness. Pardon my rustiness, it's been awhile I let my feelings out.  

I have Proof

I have proof that there's no need to worry about anything. I have proof that God has given us everything we need to live a happy life. I have proof that God gives us everything that is essential to the fulfilment of our purpose. Before I show you my proof. Let me ask, why are you sad, worried and depression? I'm sure your answer probably sounds like "because I DON'T HAVE..."  It's the things we don't have that cause us sadness the most. The things "God hasn't given us" that cause most of us to become depressed.  We somehow have this ideology that our happiness, joy and fulfilment in life is dependent on the acquisition of things that we don't already possess.  "Once I get that degree, I'll be happy and get a good job" We get the degree, only to find out that it doesn't guarantee a good job. We are disappointed but we fail to learn, so we begin the cycle all over.  The next phase might be, "once I get a good job, I...
