Being healthy is a major concern for us all, unfortunately most of us only take it seriously when we get sick or is diagnosed with some form of disease that threaten  to end your life. 

We cannot always predict what health issue is going to affect us now or in the future.  However there are a lot of things we can do to either prevent it or slow it down.

•         Drink less soda
•         Eating fruits and vegetables
•         Exercise
•          Eat more healthy foods

 Take diabetes for example, this can be caused by eating excess junk food, or too much soda, smoking, or being over-weight.  If you are doing everything necessary to be healthy but you have diabetes any way, then it is important that you follow you physician advice.

You may be thinking I don’t have diabetes and no one in my family does, so I’m good.  Do you know how your heart is doing, or if the cells in your body are operating properly?  You could have a heart attack, or develop some form of cancer.

Forgiveness a Way of Life

No one is perfect, we all make mistakes, sometimes we have no control over what happen; however we have control over what happen with our minds, and can choose what goes and what becomes a part of our lives.  Taking control means making a conscious decision to do something.

Forgiveness

Forgiveness is a decision you make that will benefit you and not the other person who may have done you wrong.  It’s a decision you make to let go of your resentment and thoughts of revenge.  The bible talks about forgiving other as we would want others to forgive us.  Studies have shown that forgiveness is essential to your health and state of mind.

Forgiveness is not denying or minimizing the wrong that was done to you.  It is not telling the responsible party that it’s OK not to take responsible for their actions.  Forgiveness is allowing your-self to have peace and move on to live a healthy and productive life.

Over-coming Loneliness

Overcoming the Fear of Failure

How would you answer this question; “are you afraid of failure?” 

Did you know that your fear of failure can keep you from being successful in life? Fear can stop you from experiencing success and freedom financially and physically in your life; it can keep you in a place that you don’t want to be and don’t know how to get out of.

  Fear of Failure

Are you afraid that if you start something it would fail? Do you think that you are one of those people who fail at everything you go after, and that you don’t deserve to be success in life?  It’s time to take control of your fear of failure.  Start believing that all things are possible, you just need to apply yourself, and failure is an option you don’t have to choose.

Fear of Change

Do you think that change will bring failure?  I personal don’t like change because it takes me out of my comfort zone.  But I am not afraid of changes because it’s a part of our everyday life.  We can’t get away from change no matter how hard we try, so embrace it and let it work for you it does not have to be a failure; it can be your platform to success.

Fear of Being Judged or Rejected

Fear can control you only if you allow it to; it has no power except for the power you give it.  Every successful individual you can think of has had been judged and rejected yet they choose to persevere and not let fear of failure conquer, or intimidate them. 

Knowing When To Say No

Saying No is not always easy to do, it sometimes makes you feel bad and seems like a mean persons.  However once in a while you will find yourself in a situation that goes beyond the limits and you simple have to say “No”.  It is not easy to say no to your friends or people you love and care about.

Pleasing Other People

There are people in your life who every once in a while you may find it hard to say No to because you want to please them.  Pleasing others is not always in your interest, so you need to weight your options.  If you are in a business negation you need to use wisdom but stand up for what you believe and what’s in your best interest.  Take control of your life and stand up for yourself and say no when necessary, don’t always try to please others.

Afraid of Losing Friendship

I have lost relationships because I have said “No”.  Don’t worry about losing friends, set limits and stick to your principles.  If you have a friend you can’t say “No” to then this friendship is not worth keeping.  People come into our lives for a reason and a season so when the time comes for them to go, let them go.
