I believe it takes some effort to say "yes." If you understand what I mean, it could be simple to state but challenging to put into practice. It takes a lot of bravery and careful thought to agree to anything since it allows one to go outside of their comfort zone and explore options that will help them develop. I made a commitment to myself early this year to say yes to a few things.
-
Yes to God: This may not seem like a point to most people, but it is to me . I don't fancy myself a good or perfect Christian, but I recognize God as my ultimate being and have faith in him. I've seen him come through for me several times, and I'd always choose him and say yes to him every time.
-
Yes to the positive proclamation: You know, words have a strong aura that may either create something or destroy it.I used to have this habit of saying negative things like "it won't work," "I can't do it," and so on. Before embarking on a project, I already had the negative thinking that it would end in disaster, and with that pronouncement in mind, there is a 90% probability that it would not even work since I have conditioned my mind to believe so. I had this buddy who would continually warn me about it, and due to her, I learned to view things differently and more positively.
Good things happen as a result of good declarations. I'm saying yes to it since I have seen it work out many times for both myself and other people.
-
Yes to Remaining Healthy and Fit: This is also one of my daily affirmations. Recently, I haven't really been taking my health seriously. So I'm saying yes. I agree with maintaining a healthy diet, boosting my immune system, exercising, etc. A healthy man, I think, is a wealthy man. I believe that I would not be able to pursue the life I want if I were not healthy.
-
Yes to Love: When I saw this prompt, this was the first thought that entered my head but I had to state them in a scale of preference that's why this came in 4th. I have this buddy who would always say to me; " Victor! I want to watch you fall in love again" and I would smile and say; "okay, soon!" But I've made up my mind to accept love once again. I think that love is a really lovely thing, and I need to discover that spark sooner rather than later. I believe one of the reasons I haven't said "yes" to love is because I'm afraid of making the incorrect decision.
-
Yes to being at peace: I'm appreciative of the people I get to interact with. He once told me: "Nobody has the right to disturb your peace or ruin your day. Always locate and embrace your place of peace." I'm the kind of person that gets caught up in everything and starts overthinking. I believe that I deserve peace as much as everyone else. So I'm agreeing to Peace.
However, I'm saying NO to;
-
Poverty; Being poor affects one both mentally and material wellbeing. So I'm saying no to it and i'll put in the effort necessary to achieve my goals of productivity, prosperity, and success.
-
No to not believing in myself and having low self-esteem: I lack confidence in myself and my ideas, which is discouraging. Yet, once I make that brave decision to accomplish what I want to do, I'll perform it perfectly.
-
No to societal discrimination: This is being faced everyday in the society. Having fear to do what one wants to do because of the fear of being judged by the society. For instance, I think it's mainly the Africans that do this. When a lady who is up to 30 years old and is not married, it is said that something is wrong and they judge her for that and some other cultural practices like gender inequality and all of that.
-
No to procrastination: I think this has been one of my many defaults. I tend to make so many procrastination which then leads to laziness and then I end up not achieving that goal I've set. However I'm saying no to it.
-
Lastly, No to Bad vibes and peer pressure: Bad vibes somehow brings about negativity and low self esteem. I say no to negativity, bad peer pressure. The only peer pressure I would want is the ones that would push me into achieving my success.
Well until next time, Do have a nice day.
