5 Things You Must Not Lose This Year

The euphoria of the festive season came and went and I trust you had a nice time celebrating with your family and friends (I had a verrrryyyyy nice time myself). Anyways, even if you didn’t, it is still a huge privilege to be alive in this newyear, isn’t it? After a long period of hibernation, yours truly is back and so is the blog (yes, I didn’t abandon the blog, how could I???). As we all move through 2015, here are 5 things you must not lose this year. Happy reading

#1 – Your Enthusiasm

Enthusiasm is simply the zeal, energy and passion for life. This is one of the propelling forces that gets you through life, otherwise you’ll end up in Kurma (zombie) mode loafing through life with no energy. No matter what comes your way this year trying to tamper with your joy and enthusiasm levels, regular time outs with God to clear your head will ensure that you don’t run after the fuel you need to make it through the year.

#2 – Your Teachable Spirit

Whatever you do, stay teachable and open to correction throughout the year. This will propel people around you to help you with vital info you need to get to the next level and make you squeeze out useful point from seemingly ordinary day to day stuff. Make it a personal goal to get wisdom this year via books, online posts and loaded people around you and your life will take a better turn this year. When you’re not teachable, people who would have otherwise given you useful counsel will hold back and watch you perish out of a lack of knowledge and I bet you don’t want that, do you?

#3– Your Risk-Taking Attitude

Breakthroughs in life do not come to those who play it safe; they come to those who take calculated risks with faith. Disappointments of the past will definitely try to rob you of your risk-taking attitude but if you allow that to happen, then you can’t access the breakthroughs lined up in 2015. Learn from the failures of the past so you can seize better opportunities this year and win this year.

#4 – Your Focus, Faith and Peace

These three things will keep you rock steady no matter the winds of distraction and change that may blow through this year. We all start out the year with a desire of what direction we would like our lives to go in, things we may want to achieve etc. Focus will keep you on course and stop you from derailing so you don’t arrive at the end of 2015 full of regrets. Faith and peace will keep you stable inwards so that fear, anxiety, worry and doubt do not incapacitate you and render your 2015 useless.

#5 – Your Fellowship with God

Whatever happens, don’t lose your fellowship with God. He is like the control tower we need to give us step by step directions that will enable us navigate our lives successfully in this aeroplane called 2015. Do your part to stay in touch with him and he will do his part to guide you. Put him first and seek his counsel before each step you take this year, not after. It is dangerous to afford spending time with everybody and everything and not make out time for God. That’s a recipe for disaster, if you ask me.

P.S: Thanks for your patronage throughout last year. This year, we’re poised to blow your mind and bless your life tremendously. We’ve got plenty things cooking up in the kitchen so stick with us. Xoxo
