Do you really know your own value?
Self-esteem refers to your opinion about who you are and the worth you place on yourself. It is one of those difficult concepts to master in life. You don’t want to think too much of yourself because arrogance is not a nice trademark to have, but thinking too little of yourself can cause major problems for you too. What you should strive for is a healthy self-esteem. Balance is the key.
Moenie jou lewensdeure oopskop nie
Tyd vir TV en fliek het ek nie baie nie, maar die ander aand vang my oog weer hoe een of ander karakter op die skerm ‘n deur skouer dat mens net skaniere sien trek. Ander kere skop hulle dit mos sommer so woerts-warts oop en storm binne.
What to do when you are feeling blue…
I am a firm believer in the power of positive thinking. I have realized that your perspective on life can make or break you. I have also realized that being human means we all hit emotional speed bumps sometimes. I’m talking about those days when you just don’t have the emotional energy to deal with life’s normal ups and downs.
Ken jy die blame game?
Dis so oud soos die berge. Om die waarheid te sê, Adam en Eva het daarmee begin. Onthou julle nog in Genesis? Toe hulle in die moeilikheid beland, blameer Adam dadelik vir Eva en Eva blameer die slang. En so duur dit steeds voort. Mense is bang om verantwoordelikheid te vat vir hul dade.
Accept and learn
It’s easy to acknowledge that all people are fundamentally different from one another in theory… It’s a different ball game in practice when another individual step on your toes!
Sand in my skoene
Ek lees ’n aangrypende verhaal van Peter Jenkins wat ’n boek geskryf het oor ’n stap ervaring, A Walk Across America. Peter het oor ’n tydperk van vyf jaar, 5 000 myl gestap met ’n 70 kg rugsak. Hy trotseer uitdagende weer en is verkeie kere aangeval deur diere, gesteek met messe, gepik deur slange en beroof. Hy is raakgery. Sy hond en “sielsgenoot”, is doodgery.
7 Areas requiring your attention
We live in a world where everything is done fast. Somewhere along the line, we started to think that more is better, faster is excellent and to be in a hurry is productive. If you think about it, it doesn’t make sense at all. Why are you rushing through life? Why do you have to have that new vehicle, that bigger house, that huge bank account? Are you sure that your hectic lifestyle is not hurting your relationships with your loved ones?
What are you waiting for?
In the 1940s a psychologist by the name of Dr. William Moulton Marston, also known for creating the comic strip Wonder Woman, send questionnaires to 5 000 people. He asked them, “what did they live for?”.
“Ek kan nie meer nie”
Dit is Saterdagmiddag, ek sit buite in die tuin. My gedagtes is iewers tussen my skooljare en die verlange na my ouers. Skielik word my dagdroom onderbreek deur my selfoon wat lui. Dit is my vriendin Karien. “Ek kan nie meer nie! Alles gebeur met my!”
Jy beter bely. Wat??
Ek sit diep en nadenkend en dink wat ek op my drie Facebook blaaie kan pos. Iets betekenisvol wat hoop gee en mense kan help om prakties te leef. Ek dink en ek dink en ek het dit: “ Kindness is more important than wisdom ”. Ek stuur dit dadelik vir Rynhard om ‘n bypassende prentjie te soek en te pos.
