An exit is an entrance into another place. 2017 was a rollercoaster ride through flames, cold and many obstacle courses. In the end, I smile because it was all part of the process and I can officially say I owned 2017. 2018, here I come.

"Manners are a sensitive awareness of the feelings of others. If you have that awareness, you have good manners, no matter what fork you use." - Emily Post
I didn't choose the word "reflection" without first putting it to thought. It would be kinda right to use the word "impression" as this is what you leave with people long after you're gone but impressions on their own give room for presumption and expectations which is subject to the preference or bias of the impressed. The reflection I speak of is the rub on effect of someone's attitude or attribute on another even in the faintest of expressions. That little something becomes a part of the person like a magnet leaves some magnetic properties on the metal that stuck to it for a while. Make it count.
The poshness, packaging and persona of class isn’t all bad as long as one doesn’t lose sight of one’s true identity.
Being real is a scarce quality. Choose to be real.
Focus is key. Distractions isn't an option.
It has been said, "Practice makes perfect" but practice can be a cycle in mediocrity with much effort and commitment but little or no change at all if it isn't done with the intention of actually getting better. Going through a process without consciously subjecting oneself to be processed still churn out crude results. Don't hate the process since it is the product that is in view. Don't rush through the process or it will be one's undoing.
The best way to move ahead is to start. If you start nothing, you'll achieve nothing 100% of the time. That you failed or didn't reel in a catch is not a loss. It is lesson learnt and experience gained.
It is possible to hold a mindset encoded to think and operate in ways far beyond any present level. If it is relevance beyond your present sphere of influence that you seek, have your operations constructed on ideas and ideals beyond your current sphere. Seek and sought to know the operations beyond borders and implement them in your day-to-day runnings.
It's high time we stop putting numbers to our days and make the numbers of our days count.
The power of will has been known to translate ideas into actions, beliefs into works, ideologies into movements. Once a decision is cleared for execution, the fuel for delivery is supplied by the will. Same also applies to being planted, unmovable, and unshaken in what one puts his or her faith in. Sheer will alone is like a wild energetic stallion that must be tamed with adequate knowledge and understanding outside of which chaos is inevitable. Zeal without knowledge is a stone throw from disaster. Electricity conducted across a circuit will light a bulb, therefore, make sure the framework of your daily thinking is patterned after accurate information and adequate understanding.
“We judge ourselves by our intentions and others by their behaviour” Stephen M. R. Covey
The really terrible thing about lying to one’s self is that over time one believes it is true. It is easy to point out a flaw in character or lapse of judgement in others but to own up to the same in ourselves may result into a psychobabble of how well-intentioned we are and how we really meant to do the right thing over and over again. Worse still is how we tend to activate our defensive mechanism when others point flaws out in our lives.
Well, it’s time to pull out the chair, take a seat and talk to yourself:
“Should I have acted that way?”
“Should I have treated him that way?”
“Will I like to be treated by others that way?”
“When I say my mind, do I really take care to mind what I say?”
“Do I really care or I enjoy the publicity showing care brings?”
“Is this really who I am or am I scared of change?”
“Did I have to make him feel worthless?”
“Do I have self love or am I just self centred?”
Being real with anyone should start from being real with you.
Remember this: It is only a knockout when you remain floored. Get up and keep on keeping on.
