Daily Teachings: 30 July 2021

“Your life is in your hands, but you must learn to gain control of your thoughts. All of your problems of fear, failure, and doubts are because your MIND is ruling you. Your mind has taken over, and you are the slave and victim of your uncontrolled negative thoughts. It is as simple as that. Take control of your mind and your thoughts. Every day, bit by bit, watch your thoughts.

When a negative thought comes, stamp it out, and refuse to allow a negative thought to take root in you by thinking of something good instead. Think more and more and more good thoughts, and soon they will come automatically.”

All of us have negative thoughts, and these negative thoughts are holding us back. Let’s try to live a more positive life by changing the way we think.

“I did my best but I failed!”

Change your way of thinking to….

Taking a short break to recharge my batteries.

Good day friends,

Over the past few months I have found that I am not as focused as I always was. I feel tired and drained. It all started when I had that nasty kidney infection and my blood pressure went through the roof and I was on bedrest for more than a week.

Since then I tried not to work to late or start to early in the morning, but in the end I fell behind on my edit work which resulted in my daily posts also falling behind due to a lack of photos. The things I used to love doing was becoming tasks and not fun anymore. For example doing research and identifying birds, animals and flowers.

I have not been making much progress with my Gaelic lessons the past two weeks, I need silence and no distractions when I am studying and at the moment that is not happening. My two hour lessons have become 30 minute lessons. I just do what I need to. This morning I came to the conclusion that the new work I did learn over the past two weeks did not stick. I tried to do a test and nothing stuck…. 😭 I draw a blank… Another reason to take a break and recharge.

This is why I decided that I need to take a short break from blogging, social media and any studies. I will only be focusing on relaxing and playing with Willow. When I feel like it I will do some editing

I did schedule some posts in advanced so my blog will not come to a halt.

If all goes well I will be on my post, recharged and ready for action on Monday 9 August 2021.

With all my heart, thank you for your ongoing support and taking the time to read my post. I am truly grateful for every view, like, follow, and comment I receive.

Please stay safe and healthy.
