LIVING THE LIFE YOU DREAMED OF - OLAYINKA ZOE

Happy New Week darlings!  Missed us yet?😄😄😄Sure you have! Trust the weekend was awesome. 

It's stifling how many times we admire others and their supposedly perfect life. We see them through the 'they-have-it-all' lens and we simply want to be like them.
However, that manner of life is suffocating and blinds our eyes to the other things we have in our lives and should find joy in.
The Big Question is- How then do we enjoy life? How do we live the life we dream of and fantasize about? How do we even make the best out of that life?

•The first thing is that we need to be intentional about living that kind and quality of life. Being intentional about it awakens a consciousness in us that it isn't a fictitious way of living and it can totally be achieved.
•The next thing is to give more time to positive things that we delight in. Devote more time to those things and find out more things that will put a smile on your face each time. Celebrate yourself and take pride in seeing the beauty you possess inwards.

•We also can not ignore the place of contentment. Yes, we strive to be better versions of ourselves, true! Absolutely true!! But let us also remember that we can not never truly enjoy life if we live it by other people's standards. We are unique, different and beautiful in our own way because we simply are not created the same! Our fingerprints are not the same; So why should we consume energy by imitating and underliving ourselves and our potentials? As we live to bring glory to our Creator, we can never bring Him glory by trying to be someone He never intended us to be.

•In enjoying life, let us never underestimate the need to take a chill pill and relish the little things in life. Let us do the supposedly small things with joy in our hearts.

•Most importantly, we need to know that we were made for God and we're wired to have Him fill us, so without Him in us, we would always have a feeling of emptiness no matter the height of success we achieve. We would only live lives that others would keep longing for, whereas we ourselves aren't enjoying that life.
The Life we keep dreaming of is not unrealistic, it's livable so long we learn how to live it.


Have a great week!
