The basic requirements for growth are desire and actions. However when your desire exceeds actions, the requirements won’t be met and growth would be hindered .

Some of us are too much consumed by the desire than putting in the actions required to give birth to the desired growth.

So, if you are concerned with changing levels rather than growing, please listen up- some levels are subjected to growth and not desire, because they can’t be handled with immaturity.

Therefore, it is essential that you’re grown into the stature of the level you have pictured before you can feature into it.

The reason is simple – you can’t operate a as a master in a filed with a baby’s mind. That’s would be the biggest disaster ever in your life. Kings reason, live or act correspondingly.

If you want to be a master, you need to gather the needed information, knowledge and experience before people will tag you as such.

You have to go through the process with all that it entails :depression at certain point, oppression another time, headaches, hustles, difficulties anything that can refine and position you as a master in the future.

Know that to move from one level to another , to climb the steps of a ladder in life, there is a sacrifice attached it. Some of them come in form of hard experiences meant to enlarge your capacity and prune you into shape like that tree at the roadside you admire a lot.

Give every word a meaning, learn how to grow with every comma, full stop, exclamation mark, question mark etc..

Anything that robs your peace, tranquility and comfort might be the right ingredients for the kind of growth required by the new level you want to reach. If you can’t endure it, forget about that desired growth you are longing for.

Know that some steps are sharp while others are steep. They become unfriendly causing your temperament. Therefore, you need to trim them well, pay rapt attention to them as you are climbing so that you stand still.

Unfortunately, some of us, merely have no accommodating capacity, yet we want to take the lead, command and give order. How can it happen successfully? Sometimes I feel like I am part of that group.

Some of us too find very difficult to manage relationships because we’ve unknowingly or knowingly stopped the process that might help us grow in that aspect. We taught we could do it alone. It will definitely bounce back.

Let’s say you leave in the same room with your friend, and one day you actually packed out of the room because you think your roommate is the most terrible and worst human being on earth while forgetting that you are not perfect as well.

If you start tagging people as such, you would like to live alone than mingling with people because they easily get on your nerves. But, stop and think : don’t you get on people’s nerves too? Or you are a saint. I don’t think so.

If you have resolved to climb a mountain for days, you will definitely burn some fat and dump some weight in the air before you reach your destination or achieve your goals.

If we badly hold on to those things, yet we desire new level, how will get there?

I hope by now, you have started thinking of your past, your current conditions, the way you go about things. That’s cool.

This means, wisdom is not acquired once for all. We grow everyday. That’s the principle of life. We all hope to be better day in day out even if many aspect of your life are not responding in affirmative to your desires.

Stupid ones analyse days, months and years of their life with usual false hope that things will get better the next day, month and year but the wise ones analyse each day, month and year of their life in such a way that they make the best from every moment. They don’t wish, they take action.

Don’t forget we are already in April and the year will end in 8 months time.

A new day should be a new you, and what you make out of it it matters a lot to your future life.

Be an action taker, a champion of the moment not the champion of the future you haven’t already seen and touched. Plan for the future but act daily to get there.

The only way to get there is to quit the fantasies and build your reality. Reality of the moment.

To sum up, these are things you can do

1-Get aligned with your maker.

Develop a cordial relationship with Him through which you can navigate the course of your existence.

Good success comes from God, not the ones that makes you rich with a touch of sorrow.

Stop believing the lies that you don’t need God to be successful.

2-Learn to grow with the commas, no level promises a smooth ride.

Stay active in the place of process rather than running away.

3-Be updated and versatile.

Learn skills, that’s the latest currency.

4-Read books:

It could be spiritual, financial, marital, leadership, career materials etc.

If you are an undergraduate, or graduate, these books will prepare you mind and get you ready for the desired growth you desire. Don’t wait till you graduate before you start making things happen or you have a problem before you start looking for solutions. They in those books.

5-Get trained and well groomed for the future before you.

6-Build your life with valuable resources.

7-And by all means, implement!

Getting results is not just about gathering knowledge, results can only be gotten from the knowledge you implement not the ones you document.

Finally, we made it to 2021! And guess what – did anything really magically change, disappear or improve overnight? Exactly! That is why I do not fall into the trap of resolutions, please don’t do it!

While the whole world has been affected by Covid-19, each country has had its own unique trials and tribulations throughout this challenging and often devastating time on earth. Living in South Africa, we were one of the first countries to implement a tiered structure to our lockdowns, and ban alcohol altogether, hence it seems some of our freedoms and rights remained in place while others were stripped under State of Disaster Laws. Humanity is not out of the woods yet; we still need to take every precaution when going about the daily business of our lives.

But all is not bad and irrecoverable! The greatest loss, destruction, and devastation hold within it the creative, constructive forces of the universe too. Within the seed lies the whole flower, the whole tree, the whole ecosystem. We just expect to have it all birthed immediately while life and the unknown mysteries of the Universe work to a different agenda. The Universe does not work on google calendars, schedules, and planners. Just because the calendar says 1 January 2021 doesn’t mean everything suddenly gets reset, refreshed, or returned to the normal we all secretly wished for.

So what should you do? Questions you need to ask yourself.

I think if we truly want to live better lives with better results we have to dig deeper. We cannot expect different results if we keep repeating the same behaviors and holding the same beliefs that we held as kids, teens, and young adults. We just land up playing out Peter Pan and Sleeping Beauty Syndromes – wondering why we can’t make the breakthroughs we hoped for.

With this being said we know that our thoughts create our reality and if this is so, then we surely need to start with where we are and address our belief systems for any change to take root and flourish.

What if we simply start by asking what didn’t work for us in 2020?  Go further back, what hasn’t changed or worked for you for the last 5/3/2 years?  What issues are we still dealing with, what demons are still lurking in our hearts, what qualities would we like to cultivate in the next 12 months.

I will admit the illusory trap of New Year’s resolutions and goal setting holds no weight for me any longer. Resolutions only hold the promise of a better future just like a mirage of a deceptive oasis seduces one’s senses in a desert.  Often, they are empty and half-hearted and at best they are flaunted about for the sake of our social media profiles and personalities. Time to ditch them and dig a little deeper.  This isn’t to say we need not strive for improvement and advancement in our lives. The purpose of life is to evolve and grow.

The statistics show that only 8% stick to their resolutions for a full year and over 80% do not see them through to 1 February. This is no surprise to me; we can’t even stick to one channel or book without chopping and changing our minds a hundred times before we settle down and commit to what to watch/read.

Why keep setting yourself up for a setback, when instead you can use this information to your advantage and do the work on the level where it actually all counts and is created from.

Here are some of the juicy questions that will get definitely kick start the process of long-lasting change, rather than the short-lived disappointing resolution trend. Remember lasting change happens through intention, not willpower or determination. We have to get our minds, thoughts, and beliefs on board before any real transformation in the physical world can manifest.

So here we go, start asking your friends, colleagues, and family members these questions too, you may be surprised at their answers or gain an insight that you may not have thought of. The questions may seem the same but sit with each question long enough for it to speak to your heart and then wait for your hearts’ answer.

*How will 2021 be different for you than any other year?

*How do you want to be different by the end of this year?

*In what ways do you want to deepen your experience of life this year?

*How do you want to improve your life this year?

I know they have been an absolute game-changer in my life and I don’t need to wait for a date on the calendar to start the process of transformation in my life, for every day is a chance to grow and blossom.
