Hi lovelies!! Happy New Month. It's our month of PRODUCTIVITY at Father of Light Ministries so yes #iamproductive

Initially, I was going to title this post, 'Mid-Night Ramblings' and then I noticed that it was my 100th post and ta-da, here we are.
Not so much has been going on with me lately. 

Yesterday was the first day of clinical practice but I didn't go. (shh! don't tell my dad) I'm just not in it at the moment, waking up in the morning is difficult enough. I'll go today tho.

I've been really lazy when it comes to writing poems. I just seem to be losing touch with my creative side.
My excuse has been,
It's not like being a waiter is a bad thing in itself but well, I call myself a 'writer'. So, let's see how many pieces of art I can create this July.

One of the many things that have been giving me joy is my hurrrrr. Yassss! I am obsessed with it and all. I may have commitment issues with a lot of things but not my hair. I mean, I am so dedicated to it. If I were that dedicated to my life. smh! vain human! jk!!
Honestly, though, I love the growth, fullness and weirdly enough I love the shrinkage.

One thing that has been on my mind is getting back to making YouTube videos. Writing makes me happy but I am my happiest when I'm making a video. I am camera shy though but just seeing myself create something that inspires or motivates someone or even just make someone smile, makes me excited.
That said, keep your eyes open, I will see how I make YouTube work.

Lastly, if there are topics you want me to write about or make a video about, be sure to leave them in the comment section.

One of my  favourite pastimes is watching videos on Youtube. Hair tutorials to be precise. On the days when I am quite energetic with nothing much to do, I make attempts at pulling off the hairstyles. Well, braiding my hair is one thing that I have always wanted to do but the thought of it alone kept scaring me off.

A couple of days back, I just picked up courage after watching a junk of videos and started braiding my hair. Half way through, I got tired. All I wanted to do was take down the braids. I just couldn't take it anymore. By the way, this was day 3 in my hair braiding journey.
Mehn! The thought of the time I had spent was my number motivation to continue...lol.

Because I'm always looking for lessons in everyday life, I found a couple in my little hair experience (hexperience :D).
There are many things that eye catching, ideas that you just want to implement. Or maybe if you're like me, you have all these goals in your head that hope to achieve, BUT they are very scary. Like they often look so big that they kinda induce fear. You can look on yourself and see how small you are in relation to those goals.
One thing that I have come to learn is that we may all see the same thing but our perception is often different. We all see with our eyes but perception is a mind thing so things that we think are too big are seen as such because of our mindset.

Well, what if these goals are really too big and are seemingly impossible to achieve, you can split them into smaller steps. If my ultimate goal was to finish braiding my hair in a day, I probably would not have been so impressed with my progress after day one. So cut yourself some slack and split your goal into smaller bits.

Smile... wink ;)

One other thing I learnt is that, as difficult as it is to start, it is more difficult to finish. Lots of projects have been abandoned because of the lack of "finishative". We have been taught to use our initiative to do things.

Ideas are all around, everyone sees them but the smart ones use their initiative to work on them. It takes a step further into wisdom to not just start something but to work on it to the end.
