Believe in Yourself

"Your works are non-sense and you really don't matter at all"  I've heard the lady telling the boy. What a cruel  remarks! And guess what?  Many times, we meet people like her. Don't listen to them. Don't  believe in them because God knows our worth and  we do matter to Him!

Believe in yourself when others don't...

because GOD believes in You!

Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities! Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers you cannot be successful or happy. ~Norman Vincent Peale

"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me"

~Philippians 4:13

Watch Me!

People has a lot to say about us. Sometimes we get discouraged.
 We need to keep on going and prove them wrong..

When someone says, you can't do it..

don't let them discourage you..

Instead turn around and say, "Watch me!" 

Nobody can make you feel inferior without your consent. ~Eleanor Roosevelt

Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it. ~Lou Holtz

Inspiring Words to Live By (Video)

 I used to create family videos using Windows Moviemaker.  Late last year, my brother gave me a copy of another  video editor called  Pro Show Gold. I've  tried to explore the program and discovered better effects and transitions.

Still A Work in Progress

 "I myself am entirely made of flaws stitched together with good intentions", 
a quote by Augusten Burroughs. 
Yes, we're made up of  flaws and  God isn't  done with us yet. It could be a long, difficult  process. But let's not give up. We will reap the harvest if we refuse to quit.

Effort only fully releases its reward after a person refuses to quit. ~Napoleon Hill

Serenity Prayer

O I love this prayer!

The Serenity Prayer
God, give us grace to accept with serenitythe things that cannot be changed,courage to change the thingswhich should be changed,and the wisdom to distinguishthe one from the other.Living one day at a time,Enjoying one moment at a time,Accepting hardship as a pathway to peace,Taking, as Jesus did,This sinful world as it is,Not as I would have it,Trusting that You will make all things right,If I surrender to Your will,So that I may be reasonably happy in this life,And supremely happy with You forever in the next.Amen.

~ Reinhold Niebuhr (1892-1971)

Bored

 I am accustomed to do the same routine each day.And yes, sometimes I get bored.
 Thus, whenever  Mr. Boredom knocks in, I  try to check my  options to overcome  the blues.   

Are you bored with life? Then throw yourself into some work you believe in with all your heart, live for it, die for it, and you will find happiness that you had thought could never be yours.  ~Dale Carnegie 
 
As far as pleasures, you've got to have limits. You shouldn't have too much of good things, so you'll always have a desire for more and you won't get bored.   ~Compay Segundo

 

A Personal Remedy List:

1. I try to break my routine. I'll  do something new  or a different time for certain  activities.
2. I try to keep motivation by changing my thoughts. I'd remind myself of my long-range goals.
3. I take the  time to talk to a family member or a friend. Guess expressing one's thought helps a lot.
4. I spend time for reflection (or  prayer). I seek guidance  from the power source greater than me.
5. I  spend  time for physical activities  like walking, sweeping  or exercising.
6. I read interesting articles or books that will help me fire my enthusiasm and renew the motivation.
7. Because I seldom watch TV, I try to watch TV every once in a while. I prefer informative shows or movies that is stimulating and entertaining as well.
8. I try to get  away from toxic people. I mean the negative people.  Those who prefers  to complain and grumble at all times. 
9. I try to warm up,  smile and remind myself that  everything will pass away. And things will get better soon!
