Your life will become a lot easier when you build yourself to the point of attraction.  Thus, when you become so good at what you do, you begin to attract people and things into your life instead of chasing them.  The chase has its place and time in the lifetime of your personal and professional pursuits.  And it must end at some point in time. It takes a lot more energy to keep up with the chase.  So, learn to build some leverage over time by building yourself to attract.  Truth is, the chase is hard. Chasing is energy sapping if you have to do things that way every single time.  There are some things you would have to chase in life but there are others you should attract.  You will make more strides in life if become a person or professional who attracts.  So, consciously build your abilities, gifts and talents, and skills to a point where these attract all your dreams and desires. Life becomes easier when you learn to make the law of attraction work for your good.   Lear

Give yourself permission to live and learn as you live. Life is for the living! Give yourself permission to live and grow by the day. Give yourself permission to believe, begin, build and become your best. Give yourself permission to make progress on the daily. Perfection is a myth. But progress is a must. Make progress on the daily, you will be happier. It is okay if you don't know or understand everything. You don't have to see the last step on the staircase before you use it. No one ever did.  But anyone who ever did try, made some progress and became something out of nothing.  It is only those who do not ever try anything that often amount to nothing.  The desire for perfection would often block you from making any meaningful progress.  So instead of letting that stop you from exploring and putting your potential and talent to good use, focus on making progress one step at a time.  Give yourself permission to make progress instead of focusing on perfection.  You

There is a reason your past is called the past. So, learn to move pass your past.  Truth is, there is absolutely nothing you can do about the past.  It will do you a lot of good, if you stopped revisiting the past and dwelling on same. You have no control over anything that happened in the past.  And you cannot change the past unless you have the mystical powers of a time traveller.  You have the present and it is called the present for a reason.  It is a present because it is a gift you get each day.  Today, your present, is a gift, so make the most of it and make your life better.  Change what you can today and let what you can't change go.  Focus on making the best of your present and you will not have to worry about tomorrow.  Accept what has happened and free yourself to experience now and what is ahead of you. Just trust the process.  You will be fine.

Self - care is not Selfishness!  It is only when you are filled and fulfilled that you can pour yourself into others to have them filled.  Take care of yourself mentally and physically because you are all you've got; before any other person or thing.  And while at it, also develop yourself intellectually into a person of substance, so you can pour something substantial into others. Self-care is not self-centredness and definitely not selfishness.  Take very good care of you so you can take very good care of yours.

I haven't been to the pool for some time and was hoping to do so today. But, thanks to the drizzling earlier in the morning, my plans changed and I went cycling.  For my first leg, I did 5.82KM in 39 mins. I took a break at the park to see an ongoing match.  I am about to take my second leg towards home.  Giving yourself some sweaty mornings are good for both mental and physical fitness.  Try it more often if you don't.

A couple of weeks ago, I received a mail, followed by a formal invitation letter to present my research work at a conference in Prague, Czech Republic.  The mail came from the program manager of the 10th World Congress on Cancer Research and Therapy. Last year, I had similar invitations to speak at conferences in Germany and Norway. And in all these instances, they found my works online.  Ours is a world gifted with many platforms where one can showcase their works.  Be deliberate about your online visibility and your value proposition as a professional.  The world is a stage and every act you stage, especially on social media is being watched. So, give your audience a good show. You can never tell who is watching and who will be  mentioning you in the right rooms.  As a professional, identify the platforms best suited for your field and publish your works on such relevant platforms.  Your digital footprints do serve as your online CV and they come in handy when it matters
