I feel blessed to have the most amazing friends. When I have felt unable to pursue my goals, they cheered me on; when I have strayed and become distracted, they aligned me and put me back on the right path. I love that the relationship I have built with my friends have allowed them to…
PASS IT ON : Part of the ‘GAP’ Series
P – is for PASS IT ON. We need this series with the letter P for ‘Pass it on’. 2 months ago I formed a new habit of asking myself ‘who needs this?’ whenever I got the privilege of being blessed with money, information or anything.
YET : Part of the ‘WAY’ Series
Y – YET It’s the last letter in this series of attitudes I have adopted in the past couple of weeks W for Write A for Act and Y for Yet! Yes you got that right… I love the word YET because it puts an emphasis on HOPE. Think of these 2 statements – ‘I…
ORDERLINESS : Part of the ‘TOP’ Series
Orderliness A while back I saw a bumper sticker that read ‘I’m too lazy to be disorganised, being organised makes my life easy’. How profoundly true is that? Many of us struggle with setting up and subsequently maintaining some order in our day to day life but wouldn’t you agree with me that when you…
TENACITY : Part of the ‘TOP’ Series

ADVANCE : Part of the ‘STAR’ Series
Advance – next attitude is the choice to end each day knowing you have somewhat grown! One of the things I’m challenged at, besides sports is languages. I just can’t seem to get the words into my head and keep them there. So I find myself constantly attempting to speak a 2nd language and giving…
THANKFUL : Part of the ‘STAR’ Series
Thankful – I loooooove being thankful! From the time we wake up in the morning till we rest our head at night, we are constantly bombarded with demands on our emotions. Many times we let ourselves go off in a spiral of self-pity and feel irrelevant.
SERVE : Part of the ‘STAR’ Series
A couple of weeks back I attended a conference at the O2 and while waiting for the programme to begin, I asked myself one of those searching questions – ‘Doyin which qualities do you possess that’s makes you feel particularly able to take on the world?’ Yes I know, I am a random thinker, probably…
