How to find Joy within the things you already have.

I can’t say that I have everything I want right now, but I can’t complain either I think life has been generous to me. I don’t have a car, expensive jewelry and designer clothes, nothing like that but I have enough and that’s okay for now. I know there are people in worse situations than mine and I continue to pray for them.

Great Things Take Time. Be Patient
Don’t get me wrong though I want to have the best things that life has to offer, everyone does, but I am taking my time, because I have to start from somewhere. I don’t want to be greedy or get to where I want to be in the wrong way, like by getting myself a ‘sponsor’ or posting nude pics on the internet. (Let’s face it I don’t even have the body for that but even if I did, I wouldn’t:)



I will definitely get there because I take every opportunity to learn, work hard and be good at what I do. That is what wakes me up in the morning: the chance to be better than the person I was the previous day.
Be grateful for what you have
One thing for sure is that I am happy where I am right now. I appreciate the little things that I have, my small apartment(rented), simple second hand clothes, I few pairs of shoes. I don’t feel ashamed to acknowledge what I have, and I honestly don’t care what anyone else would think of me. Am not competing with anyone,just me.

Do not postpone happiness
Once I realized that postponing being happy thinking that I can be happy later when I have lots of wealth and material possessions was a waste of time, I began being comfortable in my own skin. I became happier, grateful, confident and full of life. Am probably happier than that person who is wealthy and doesn’t even have time to spend his money because he is busy looking for more wealth. 

You are only as happy as you want to be
Do not end up miserable chasing material things in the thought that they will make you happy when they won’t. That car or house that you want so bad will never bring you happiness because you will keep on wanting more and more every day. A better model will come and you will still want that too so be happy with what you have and where you are because if you are not you never be. Happiness is an inside Job. #Life Lessons

Lots of love>>>>>>
