INSPIRATION talk with Mary Ewa

A Time for Introspection…

There was a time when the act of contemplation was a lifestyle, a time when people joyfully sought quietness as their time of introspection, a time to reflect and have the understanding needed to proceed with matters of life and even their relationship with the world at large. But since the advent of the tool called social media via communication technology, the act of seeking self through introspection is literally phasing out as a way once gladly embraced by those who sought deep insight and understanding of life and how to deal with its issues. Our world is now filled with so much noise such that you don’t even need to leave your home to hear the loud noise all round about but right within your home, you find it there and everywhere you go or look as far as you have an android phone with active data, you are either a listener to the noise or you are the creator of the noise.

Frankly, each new beginning requires a new and fresh dedication. It’s a new year, a new start, new terms, new strategies… If we must turn things around for good,if we must achieve our goals and turn our dreams into reality, we must be result-driven, we must be firm, focused, decisive, disciplined and bold in action.
Do not seek validation to make your life better. Do not let who you are or become be determined by what people say else you will end up living a life that is not yours… a life far from your dreams and your aspirations. Each one of us is a distinct individual wired specially for their unique purpose on earth. However, a good number of us have lost our purpose because we have been busy trying to get validation from people who don’t even know our stories, our struggles, our fears, our tears or even our pains. However, it’s a new dawn and a new chance to change the narrative… make up your mind now and see how powerful you truly are as a human person!

Commit to self-growth and be intentional about it. State your terms; It’s time to be in charge of your life. Direct your cause and determine your result. Spare no thoughts to negativity for that will be your biggest detour. Learn from the past why you failed. That surely is your way to unleash and experience your full potentials.
Be mindful of your words and your mindset because those are your working tools.
We may not always know this but those two tools are the most powerful tools that can make or mar a man.

Look forward, be focused, permit not the noise to dictate who you become. Don’t let your experience in the past year shape your expectations, lest you limit your chances and possibilities. Work hard, do good. Do not allow the wickedness or ignorance and unpleasant encounters of others rob you of the greatness that lies ahead.
Push hard, go back if you need to, make sure to pick up the project you have abandoned and breathe a new life into it.

Surely we can do it!
It is time, let’s get started.
