THE WATERMELON

-
One time I woke up to one of the very bright and promising Thursdays, free from the necessary responsibilities ready to self-reflect and sink deep into my aura. 
A thought crosses my mind and I begin to wonder why life can't give anything for free, must we always have to work or pay to get something good or helpful? All this being triggered by the fact that i having to shop for groceries that day.

As I'm shopping, I decide to buy myself a watermelon to try brighten my day and just as I'm about to leave, the vendor calls me back to give me an extra watermelon. Walking back home with the two watermelons in my bag I realize I just got another free chance to better my health and body with the extra watermelon.

That watermelon reminded me of the little things that we fail to recognize as we focus on seeing the 'bigger' achievements or gifts. 

Sometimes you have everything you need a your disposal but when the one thing you desire fails to come your way, you forget to count your other blessings.
As much as many have termed life as difficult, it all lies in your mindset and art of gratitude.

Learning to appreciate and see the good in every occurrence in your life by finding lessons in the bad and being happy for the good.

Not everything is worth your time or energy or emotions so don't waste your f*** on things that don't add any value!   So this challenge is all about selecting the things that are worth your f*** and not giving a f*** to those that aren't. Carefully select the more important things in your life, focus on them and invest your fuck in them because they are worth it

The 'Intentional' part we ignore

We're always reminding ourselves to be deliberate and purposeful in all we do for better results, striving to achieve the best in our day to day activities that contribute to what and how our future will be. Being Intentional is always the key.   One part of our human life however, seems to receive the lesser amount of our 'being Intentional'  and it sometimes gives us results that we never wished for. We tend to start relationships based on the feelings and energies we receive forgetting the 'Intentional' part of it all. While we focus on satisfying our social belonging and affection needs, we forget to think of what we want to achieve in the end. When the feelings start to fade and the energies no longer match or excite, what will be left to hold on to? Many friendships and romantic relationships we form lack a clear destination and purpose that gives us the motivation to keep investing and working towards the end goal. Our long lasting relationships,
