Thought

Have a Vision, Accept Setbacks & Be Persistent

J.K. Rowling always knew she was going to be a writer. According to her website, “As soon as I knew what writers were, I wanted to be one.” But it took more than wishful thinking. She started writing the Harry Potter series during a delayed train ride from Manchester to London. Rowling envisioned all of the characters and the story started to take shape. She spent the next five years outlining the plots for each book and wrote down the names and magical powers of every single character. It’s that attention to detail that make the stories so great.

There are too many things I’m thankful for to choose one. Ironically all the things I’m most thankful for are not THINGS at all, they are the people that make my life whole. Husband, daughter, mother, close friendships etc.. This pandemic has truly made me realize the worth of all the things I took for granted; sneaking off to a morning movie with my hubby, girls night with my friends or watching my daughter lose her mind in a bouncy house place with the other kids. That said the things I can do like work on my personal goals I need to get more intense with, so I need to hurry up and start doing things badly so I can get to the good. Thanks for helping to keep me motivated!

I am extremely thankful for my parents, who are the most tough and hardworking people I know. They have been working super hard during the pandemic and somehow they manage to be amazing parents through it all as well.

Holidays are always bittersweet because I miss my parents and my son. However, I am immensely grateful and thankful for the family I have been blessed with a husband, 2 amazing daughters a son in law that loves my daughter almost as much as I do, sister friends, my dogs and all of the blessings that come from asking God to pattern my steps and my words so I can be able to help whenever and wherever I am needed.
I am extraordinarily grateful for my health and the health of my family and friends!
Thanks for your vision and sharing the inspiration we need!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!!!

I’m thankful my family has been healthy during this pandemic and that they didn’t get Covid. I’m also thankful that it is Christmas time! This time of the year feels somewhat normal when comparing it to life before the pandemic.

I extremely appreciate life. It might not be a perfect life but it is the life that I made. This pandemic thought me a few things one of the biggest lessons that that I learned is that life is not promise to anyone. At any day, anytime, anywhere our life can be over in a blink of a eye. I am sure that no one planned to leave this earth the way that people are leaving it now. How can a family plan for a situation like this. So am Thankful for life and everything and everyone in it.

I’m thankful for all the examples I have in my life. They’re the reason I’ve learned to value time. I’m only 21, but I feel so behind. As a result, I work harder & smarter, and attempt to seize every opportunity.

Peace & Blessings. I want to comment on the Ziglar post ( Worth Doing Poorly) . This is so true and valuable. As an EFL instructor and student, I learned the only way to learn a foreign language is to speak it badly in the beginning….one cannot be afraid of that phase, because you will never advance👍
