FOCUS ON THE WINS

As i continue sharing about my goals journey,this post will mainly focus on Physical goals and Spiritual goals.may i mention how important it is to believe in Yourself and in your abilities. On spiritual goals,i have learnt God is truly faithful even when i faithless.Even know as i write this,i need God to charge my faith up and i know He will do it.i believe He will do it.One of favorite bible verses on God's faithfulness is: 1 Corinthians 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it. On Physical goals,i have been able to achieve much in this area.have i encountered challenges?yes!From the weather being bad,to having no nanny to leave joy too but i have kept going and i can see i am loving what i see when i look in the mirror. One of the qualities that have come out in me during this journey is how resilient i am.and resilient for once seems like a nice/good word to use on myself.it does not mean suffering,it means i have kept going no matter what. On my financial goals,i have seen so much change,everything i have declared over mysef and my life over the past few months,i have seen manifest and i thank God for this,for this has been such a big win for me. Maybe you can share down below in the comments some of the ways you are working on your goals,see you in the next post.

GOALS

Today i will sharing on goals,setting goals and what has be working for me and can work for you,i will actually share some of the goals i have achieved thus far: 1.Travel/recreation goals-i achieved this past weekend during new years and go to some #tembea kenya by going to Ngare Ndare Forest in Nanyuki and i am so proud of myself,and i am looking forward to achieve more travel goals even outside Kenya. 2.Family goals-One of my family goals that i have written down is a family that prays together and i know its possible in jesus name!i believe and that's it.i know and believe God is faithful enough to bring it to passl. 3.Career goals-This is still a working progress but i will say this,i have seen a change/milestone in this area,God has been working. 4.Health goals-this has been my biggest milestone thus far and i will share pictures soon and its getting clearer for me by the day and i thank God for this. 5.Writing goals-i have always loved writing since i was a little girl and i pray i perfect it and poeple can relate to what i share.my end goal in this to finish writing my first book which i started in 2020 and reach a larger audience.for now breathing exercises and quieting everything down has helped me in writing more. 6.Spiritual goals-this has been a working progress for me but i see God leading me,i had not settled down on a specific church but i am taking baby steps to get closer to God by His grace.this one requires no judgement. 7.Get a vision board-i cannot insist on this and how important it is and how it has changed my life for example one of the goals i had written down is to be more neat and organized and it happened!yay! 8.Relationship goals-This has also been a win for me especially when it comes to joy,my daughter,a more closer,healthier and happier relaionship with her and being able to involve her in more activities such as my work,a happier relationship and it has worked,even the ability to spend more time together but i had to start with me.my relationship with myself has also greatly improved and i love myself more now and will continue to do so as i overcome imposter syndrome. Thank you for reading and making it this far with me!SEE YOU IN THE NEXT POST.

CONFIDENCE PART 2

I am continuing my series on how to build confidence and i will share a few tips on what worked for me or what has been working for me: 1.Share what is it you want to do in life-you have to be very specific on this to avoid any confusion: my examples are: -i want to travel to specific countries with joy such as dubai,south-africa. -i want my wedding pictures up. One thing i have learnt about goal-setting is just have faith in it.Just believe,dont ask too many questions,let your mind rest. This has really helped me focus on my goals without any distractions,so that when distractions come,you are able to get back on track immediately. 2.Celebrate myself-this is a big one for me,for example like today i have to buy myself chocolate,its a must that we are constantly celebrating ourselves even when noone is.find a way to treat yourself,it could be something low budget,but works for you.clap for yourself,celebrate the small wins no matter how small and make it a lifestyle. 3.Be more clearer on your financial goals-i mentioned this in the last post and its a working progress,i am yet to draw up my excel sheet but what is the harm in trying and writing it down. 4.Get clear about your goals and gain clarity. 5.Have a vision board-make your vision board-cast the vision and write it down. 6.Stay thankful-you can never go wrong with thanksgiving,stay thankful for everything and the people God has provided in your life. 7.Discover yourself-i have discovered alot myself in the journey i am such as i am so much more focused,driven,how i actually go after i want,how i am a co-creator with God(creative),a visionary and a doer.these are all things i have discovered about myself with time and i appreacite them and i hope you do too.

CONFIDENCE PART 1

One thing i have learnt about confidence is that you have to build it and here are ways i have built mine a.First and foremost write down the things you want to be or become: Here are mine: -i want my leopards jumpsuit and heels,lol -i want alignment in my life,Godly alignment. These are just some of the examples and there is no shame in that.There is no shame in wanting good things in life and actually actualizing them. b.Another way is write down the things you want to do. A goal written down is not only achievable but shows you are 50% there.i am a bigger believer in this. Examples of what you want to do: i want to coach and earn a living from it. i want to do a job i love. The key in this is not just getting it done but putting action steps behind it and small steps become big steps,small wins become big wins. c.Another way is to also stop overthinking and trust yourself.this has been monumental to me especially in my dating life and has helped me overcome barriers i once had,for example;affirm yourself things like:i am a catch!i am a damn good catch!and from there it flows. d.work on your financial goals and by this,i mean me too.finances have a way to affect us no matter which walk of life you are from.if there is a way you can write them down and start working on them,your life will be so much better.i could also mention work with a budget,buy what you can afford and for the ladies,you do not have to be extravagant to look good.learn to thrift and again,work with a budget,an excel sheet could help. e.Be thankful and stay thankful no matter what.you become a more attractive person in life when you are thankful than when you are grumbling.if you have to write your thanksgiving list do it.Thank God!thank yourself!thank others and it will illuminate.it will come back to you 1000 fold.just like we are told in the bible to tithe and by attractive,it could even be in business,you attract more money,more people when you are thankful but this is not a means to an end,its a way of life.thankful people are normally so much more happier. f.write down what is it you would want to have in life; for example;mine in this area are: i have more than enough enough money to do the things i love. i have a Godly spouse. These work well with affirmations and how you see yourself or who you believe you are.you can only attract who it is you believe you are.if you believe in Godly marriages like me,you attract that.set small simple goals to achieve that which you want in life and leave it in God;s hands for He is the author and finisher of our faith!amen! Kindly apply and tell me how it goes.all the best to you.

HONESTY

wow!today in class we learnt about core values and i realized one of my core values is honesty let me tell you why: i did not realize honesty was a core value for me until i was 21.i got pregnant and by the grace of God met a friend through parents magazine who then became a divine connection becasue she had already gone through what i was going through at the time. i shared with her freely my journey once we bacame friends and she recognized that quality in me and i have held on to it to this day.it has been a guiding force in my relationships,friendships and the things i do.it has opened more doors for me than it has closed.i will say this: why am i telling this story? well because today in class,a lady shared how she got married at the age of 21 and hinesty was her virtue from the beginning.it guided her marriage and career life and sometimes it paid off and sometimes it didnt. what i can tell you is that her story stood to me.why?because i have this notion from so long and i have belived since i was young(like 20 years old)that getting married early is wrong and even the statistics say 'a person who gets married young never survives a marriage' and i have held to this belief till today.but maybe i am open to change because i am 29. i got pregnant at 21 and was in no way ready for a baby.she got married at 21 and she was in no way ready for marriage,little she know,or little did i know,.same age,different scenarios. her story inspired me to say the least because it remind me of my 21 old self and her beliefs about marriage. it stirred something in me to want to write this and articulate it on paper. i am an inspired 21 year old but i am a more inspired 29 year old gril,more confident. as a sign off this,i want to say thank you,thank for all those stories that have inspired us to be better. with love, jacque.

NOTES TO YOU

There are days i wish i could change something about myself and this is no way to start a post but if there is something i want my blog to reflect is complete honesty as God leads me and i am learning to fully accept myself as i am and i hope you do too.
so on to some of the notes i have learnt on my journey
FORGIVE
I am still on this and if i am to be completely honest this is a struggle for me even now.i am currently on a series on forgiveness sent by a friend by John MacArthur and well...welp...its still a struggle for me especially when it comes to a close family member.
i am praying for grace to finally forgive.
SHORT PRAYER:
God cleanse my heart.
There is post i have seen from a friend's whats app status and i thought i share:
'we would never learn forgiveness if people never hurt us'
how true this is
we would never need to actually forgive since there would be no hurt,we would never see the need.God help us get some perspective on this.
i am on a journey towards forgiveness and my prayer is that we get there.
That is my prayer for you my dear reader and you too.much love to you.💜💜

God's got this

Today was a struggle
Well during the day
And I am typing this out right now
To be honest it takes sheer courage to write this...the title and all
I am praying that God will meet me where I am
I am crying out to God
I do not want normal
I want more
My soul wants more
Somehow I ended up in different places today
And it could be my soul was searching profusely
The first place I ended up was a pizza inn place and I ended up ordering soda
Later in the day,I found myself in a fries place and I ended up ordering tea
After taking tea,I found myself craving for coffee
And somehow wished I was in a coffee house sipping my coffee and living my best life
But in all those thoughts
I was reminded that God's got this
God's got my situation
God's got the nanny I have
And I was reminded to rest
Just rest
Rest in Him
Rest in His power
And I immediately went home.
God's got this.

Please pray for me.
