2016 Sparkle

-


Whoop! Whoop! It is 2017, that “new resolution, new me” time of the year. I am so excited about 2017 because 2016 has been a great year for me. When a year ends on a good note it brings a good fresh start of the new year. Let me take you back a little bit to 2016. Here are a few highlights of 2016
Obviously the most precious one is my ZIWA Courage Award. That award gave me confidence, uplifted me and gave me a lot of hope to soldier on with my life without comparing myself to anyone. It made feel like I am on cloud 9. You can check my previous blog all the ZIWA information is there.

2017 is my final year in uni. YEAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!! This means I need to put more work and upgrade my CV. This year I decided to take part in most leadership positions. I applied as many as I could. Guess what? I got all the jobs.

  Aunother reason to be grateful to God.
Get ready for this third one. Are you ready……… I found love in 2016 *blushing* . I cannot say much at this moment. It is a post for another day. Look out for a boyfriend tag ,on my YouTube channel (Sinikiwe Kademaunga) soon.

   
2016 was my year to try out a lot of fun stuff. Some of the things might sound small but to me it is everything. The greatest thing I tried out was opening this blog. I am not the greatest writer or creative person out there but this is a platform I have decided to share my thoughts and experience with you guys.
I tried out a few fashion items which I thought could not suit me. Fashion gurus out there can agree with me that one of the things that makes any outfit looks put together is a watch. I have always wanted to wear one but I was not sure if it won’t fall from my hand. Now here I am, I am loving it.


I have always loved short hair. It makes me feel unique and different. Ever since I tried short hair I feel so comfortable with myself. Last December I took it on a whole other level. I tried the “bald” look. Honestly I am loving it. I have never felt less stressed in my life the way I feel now.

We cannot call it a year without a few lessons. Here are mine:
1.    Never stop trying. No matter how big your dreams are, you will never achieve them if you do not try. Experience is the best teacher.
2.    Never let people bring you down. No matter what you do in life people will always have their opinion. Do not just take any advice you get from every Tom and Jack you meet. Be surrounded by the people you trust, the ones who calm you down, people who love you. Some people are just there in your lives to check your progress and criticize.  
3.    I have also discovered power of social media. It can break or build you. Once you put something on social media it is no longer private. People already have their opinions on it. I have learnt that do not take everything personal and keep some things private. The world does not deserve to know about your life. you owe nobody an explanation.
I would love to hear how your 2016 was, just leave a comment below. I enjoy reading your comments.   😃

Self acceptance

One day my friend asked me what i would want God to do for me, just one thing. My response was so quick and i said,"Good skin". My friend was shocked because she thought i was going to say i wanted to be tall and have my arms. However that was not my priority because i have become so comfortable with myself that i even forget about my disability. Only one thing has gotten me to this level and that is SELF ACCEPTANCE. Self acceptance is the first step to your self development journey. According to Dr Tara Brach, author of  Radical Self Acceptance , the feelings of shame and unworthiness are the source of many problems we experience with our relationships, careers, and social life. Self-acceptance is the ability to accept yourself as you are instead of how you wish you were. Its about accepting your strengths, weaknesses, flaws and all. Self-acceptance is the feeling of satisfaction with yourself despite your weaknesses and regardless...

My heart is filled with gratitude and happiness as  I write this blog. I cannot even start to explain how happy I am but all I know is I am smiling throughout this blog. I am really excited to announce that I was awarded the courage award of 2016. WOW!! As soon as I received the email I rushed to check what is a courageous person. Lol! Yes,  I did because I could not believe myself. When I checked the definition, I realized that I am also in a process of knowing myself better. Some of the things that I take for granted and think it is just my everyday routine, it really inspires someone else out there and people see my courage in it. Okay, enough of rambling let me point out a few things that I have learnt from this award: 1. Be Yourself Like I said earlier on for me some of the things I take for granted people find inspiration in it. So always be yourself you never know how many people are watching and getting inspired. Be yourself always. 2. Share your story A lo...

6 Business lessons I have learnt in the past 2 years

Since i started my life coaching business there are things I have learnt and I want someone else to get a lesson or two. 1. Ideas do not come fully formed Don't wait till you have all the information, resources etc. All you need is your idea and everything will take shape. Start where you are with what you have. Ideas will come as you grow and gain experience. Entepreneuship is a journey. Do it afraid. Most people are hold back by fear but do it afraid anyway. When i started as a life coach i was a jack of all trades but as i grew in the business i found my niche and now i am a confidence coach. Even my logo was just basic but now its more colorful and meaningful to my goals and vision. #justdoit 2. You will think of quitting so many times  They say start a business its worth it, i am yet to see the worth it part lol. When you start your business, you have so much energy and passion to serve. You feel like you will change the world but hunnay! reality will humble you...
