Today I am a year older... I am not one to celebrate my birthday as I always hope I would be in a better position in my life everytime it comes.
♢
One would say I need to be greatful as there are a lot of things that I have achieved that I should be greatful for. I guess I should stop being hard on myself. I guess I should be more appreciative. Trust the process and reward myself time and time again for all my achievements, for "happiness is not about getting what you want all the time, it is about living with what you have and being grateful for it."
♢
As from today, I celebrate Ntombikayise Bhengu. The daughter of a single parent of six who worked as a domestic worker... A girl from Soweto, who studied in a school where there was poor infrastructure and poor teacher attendance. A girl who made it to one of the best Universities in the country, the University of Cape Town. A Masters candidate at the University of the Witwatersrand and the Co-Founder of a tutoring and a career development company, @thementeesark, which is also providing employment for the youth.
♢
From here onwards, I will continue to celebrate this woman that I am and that I am becoming. I will celebrate her, in her failures and in her successes.
♢
Ntombikayise Precious Bhengu, stop being so hard on yourself. You are coming along fine.
♢
If you also start being too hard on yourself, know that you are doing just fine. Here is a lovely poem by Rita Jade:
♢
"Tonight, just for this one night, rest your heart.
Be gentle and loving with yourself.
Stop thinking that life is there to break you.
Life is here to make you.
You took on more than you ever imagined you could handle.
You have sometimes surprised yourself.
You have marveled at your strength.
You have moved the unmovable.
You have overcome the unthinkable.
You have endlessly fought.
You have stood your ground.
For that, you should be proud.
You are still here, safe and intact.
So for tonight, just for this one night, rest your heart.
You are doing the best that you can."

Initiate your abilities. ⠀
⠀
Just a little story about this drawing. 2016 I met a wonderful lady. We took pictures and before going to visit her, I drew one of the pictures we took. I had no clue that I was able to draw people. ⠀
⠀
I finished it and I was blown away by it. I realized that sometimes your best abilities will be initiated when you have a burning desire for something.⠀
⠀
This also applies to any goal that you have. Your burning desire to succeed is enough to carry through the hardships. Failures and pitfalls will only be permanent when that light runs out. ⠀
⠀
No matter how complex a dream may be to others, believe in it even when you are at your lowest point because it is that constant application of efforts that make sense at the end. ⠀
⠀
Do it now!⠀

Dignify yourself.
The way you conduct yourself and the choices you make always portrays a certain image to your future and to people.
Whether good or bad, your dignity is always tested.
How then do we maintain a good dignity of ourselves?
We need to constantly honor and value ourselves enough to realize that there's a difference between negative pride and dignity. Negative pride is thinking that you better than everyone else.
Dignity is loving yourself enough to realize that you not special than everyone else.
Never try to withhold your dignity in exchange for people's happiness because an honorable person restores the dignity of others.
God created you with perfection, love yourself.
It's not pride, it's dignity!

Why look anywhere else while you have everything you need?⠀
⠀
The reason why we never start is that we spend time calculating risks more than the benefits. ⠀
⠀
The reason why we never embrace ourselves is that we spend time looking for what we can't find. ⠀
⠀
The reason why we never see how fortunate we are is that we spend time feeling sorry for ourselves. ⠀
⠀
Remember that you survived more than you deserve in some way. It is time to realize the tools you have. ⠀
⠀
With them, you can build an empire. With them, you can turn dreams into reality. ⠀
⠀
It is time. It's your time to move an idea into a product. Take a leap of faith and destroy all the self-made obstacles.⠀
⠀
You are amazing!⠀

Fear will always be there but don't allow it to take over. It crushes greatness in people every day.⠀

Why do we have to gain knowledge? ⠀
⠀
Well, looking in a broader view, in every situation we gain knowledge. We learn from people, we learn from animals and we also learn from love, so basically we can never stop learning. ⠀
⠀
People spend time looking at the ultimate goal that matter to them, goals like winning an award or getting to be deemed successful. That's just the cherry on top. The question is, what knowledge do we gain in the process? ⠀
⠀
It is important to realize what you learn in everything you do or encounter. You have to be susceptible to information. You need to master the ability to accept knowledge and be able to apply it. ⠀
⠀
In this way, you will be able to have a clear mind on how to deal with situations. Train your mind well because that is your strongest point, never stop learning because you need every information to better yourself, to make enrich your life. ⠀
⠀
What do you think about knowledge?⠀
