The author encourages everyone to intentionally schedule regular Me Time for themselves. The Power of “Me Time”: A Path to Self-Healing and Self-Awareness.   It is not a path to Selfishness.

  The author was inspired to write this after listening to a Christian Radio Program by Chuck Swindoll  who is a Pastor and Bible teacher at Insight for Living in the United States of America. We typically know the names of famous artists in the world but what about the unsung Hero's in our lives, or do we even have at least 3-5 people whose names we can call out to as our Unsung Hero's. Time to Self-Check: How wealthy are you, really! When we hear the word  wealth , our minds often go straight to money, net worth, properties, assets. stocks, or luxury.   But what if I told you that real wealth has nothing to do with your bank account? Don’t get me wrong.   Money is a necessity for providing things for your living.   But wealth? What if the truest form of richness lies in the quality of your relationships? Your attitude and the positive outcome you generate in your surrounding.  You Are Richer Than a Billionaire If you can name 3 to 5 people in y...

It’s been a while since the author last wrote on her blog—not because she didn’t want to, but because life has been full of exciting developments and it took a lot of her time. She takes her writing seriously and didn’t want to post just anything; she wanted to share something meaningful, something that truly resonates with her heart. What follows is a reflection she’s been holding onto for some time—thoughts she’s finally ready to put into words.   Midlife Awakening: Why Life Truly Began at 50 When I turned 50, a few friends who already reached the milestone smiled and said something unexpected: “ You’ve just entered the best part of your life.” I remember thinking to myself,  Really ? What’s so great about turning 50? All I could see at the time was aging. Health issues starting to creep in. Slowing down. The looming approach of retirement. The pressure to save more, plan more, worry more. I felt like I was stepping into the first chapter of a midlife crisis -boredom, uncert...

  The author encourages individuals to be courageous in taking risks in confronting the unknown, to take the first step to success and not have any regrets in life. That Risk You Are Afraid to Take Could Be the One Risk That Changes Your Entire Life We often do not take risks because we doubt ourselves in moving outside our comfort zone.  We fear in facing the unknown.  Every significant breakthrough, every transformative moment in life, every success often begins with a single step outside your comfort zone. But taking that step can feel daunting, even terrifying. The risks we avoid often seem safer than the unknown, yet the very risks we fear could hold the key to our growth and opportunities we’ve only dreamed of.  We take comfort in not taking that risk rather than facing the unknown. The Nature of Risk Risk is inherently tied to uncertainty. It means venturing into unfamiliar territory, where the outcomes are not guaranteed. This uncertainty can trigger fear...
