Have you ever been in a situation and felt on the verge of giving up? Have you felt like change is not for you, that nothing good is coming your way? I am saying this to you today, do not stress because nothing is permanent, and whatever you are passing through, it will change for good.
All you have to do is believe. Believe that tomorrow will be extraordinary, that what is coming will worth the patience, consistency and perseverance.
Keep believing, keep growing, keep hoping, and the universe will always make it come to pass in your life.💥💫

Have you ever noticed how a single book can shift your mindset? How one chapter can leave you replaying a sentence over and over again? Reading doesn’t just entertain us — it awakens something powerful within us. It stretches the mind, opens new doors, and quietly guides us toward who we’re meant to be.
The truth is simple: your purpose becomes clearer when you start reading. Here’s why.
1. Reading Exposes You to Possibilities You Didn’t Know Existed
Most people don’t lack purpose — they lack exposure. Books introduce worlds, careers, lifestyles, values, and ideas that aren’t present in your daily environment. Suddenly, you begin to see that there are paths beyond the ones you were told about growing up.
Reading whispers: “What if your life could be different?”
And that question alone can spark the beginning of purpose.
2. You Connect With the Experiences of Others
Authors pour their lessons, failures, triumphs, and discoveries into pages. When you read, you’re not just being entertained — you’re borrowing their wisdom.
You begin to think: “If they could find their purpose, maybe I can too.”
Stories of resilience, reinvention, and growth help you recognize patterns in your own life. They push you toward introspection, and that’s where clarity begins.
3. Reading Sharpens Your Mind and Deepens Your Self-Awareness
Your purpose often hides behind confusion, stress, and noise. Reading slows you down. It invites you to reflect instead of react, to think instead of rush.
Every chapter becomes a mirror. You start to discover:
What inspires you
What frustrates you
What you naturally gravitate toward
What values matter most to you
Clarity comes from within — books simply help you unlock the door.
4. Reading Expands Your Vision and Breaks Limiting Beliefs
Many people feel “purposeless” because they’ve unknowingly accepted limitations placed on them by society, family, or fear.
Books challenge those limitations.
They make you dream bigger, think deeper, and question the invisible walls you’ve built around yourself. And when your vision expands, your purpose expands with it.
5. Reading Helps You Find the Words for What You’ve Always Felt
Sometimes, you already know your purpose — you just can’t name it yet.
Books give language to emotions, desires, and ideas you’ve carried for years. Suddenly, a sentence captures exactly what you feel. A paragraph explains a longing you’ve never understood. A story makes your hidden passion come alive.
Purpose becomes clearer because someone else has already walked a similar journey and written it down.
6. Reading Inspires Action and Personal Transformation
Purpose becomes real when you take action, and reading nudges you in that direction. Whether it’s a motivational book, a biography, or a personal development guide, reading fuels you with energy to start doing something about your life.
You begin to set goals. You become more intentional. You start taking small steps.
And with each step, your purpose becomes less of a mystery and more of a path.
Your purpose was never missing — it was simply waiting for clarity. Books help you quiet the world, expand your mind, and reconnect with yourself on a deeper level.
If you feel lost, confused, or unsure of your direction, pick up a book. Read slowly. Read intentionally. Read with an open heart.
You may just discover that the answers you’ve been searching for were always waiting for you between the lines.

1. “It is chiefly through books that we enjoy intercourse with superior minds. In the best books, great men talk to us, give us their most precious thoughts, and pour their souls into ours. God be thanked for books. They are the voices of the distant and the dead, and make us heirs of the spiritual life of past ages. Books are true levelers. They give to all who will faithfully use them, the society, the spiritual presence, of the best and greatest of our race.”
——WILLIAM ELLERY CHANNING——
2. “The world of books is the most remarkable creation of man; nothing else that he builds ever last. Monuments falls; nations perish; civilization grow old and die out.
After an era of darkness, new races build others; but in the world of books are volumes that live on still as young and fresh as the day they were written, still telling men’s heart of the hearts of men centuries dead.”
——– CLARENCE DAY ——-
3. “Every man who knows how to read has it in his power to magnify himself, to multiply the ways in which he exists, to make his life full, significant, and interesting.”
—– AlDOUS HUXLEY ——-
4. “Committing an injury puts you below your enemy; taking revenge only makes you even with him, but forgiving him gets you above.”
——– DR. JAMES B. MOONEYHAN ——-
5. “Keep a grateful journal. Every night, list five things that happened this day that you’re grateful for. What it will begin to do is change your perspective of your day and your life. If you can learn to focus on what you have, you will always see that the universe is abundant; you will have more. If you concentrate on what you don’t have, you will never have enough”.
——– OPRAH WINFREY——–
6. “Hold yourself responsible for a higher standard than anyone else expects of you. Never excuse yourself. Never pity yourself. Be a hard master to yourself and be lenient to everyone else”.
——– HENRY WARD BEECHER ——
7. “The more you learn, the more you realize how much you don’t know”.
——- DONALD J. TRUMP ——
8. “Everyone has money problems. If you want to make yourself rich, solve problems. Identifying a problem creates the opportunity for creating a solution”.
——- ROBERT T. KIYOSAKI ——–
9. “Vision remains vision until you focus, do the work, and bring it down to earth where it will do some good “.
——- DONALD J. TRUMP ——–
10. “The real source of wealth and capital in this new era is not material things — it is the human mind, the human spirit, the human imagination, and our faith in the future. That’s the magic of a free society– everyone can move forward and prosper because wealth comes from within”.
——– STEVEN FORBES ——-

What part of your routine do you always try to skip if you can?
We all have that one part of our daily routine that feels like a tiny mountain—easy enough to climb, yet strangely tempting to walk around. It could be making your bed, answering emails, journaling, eating breakfast, stretching, or that quiet five minutes of meditation you always promise yourself you’ll do “tomorrow.”
The truth is simple: The things we try to skip often reveal the exact areas we need the most.
Why Do We Avoid Certain Parts of Our Routine?
Avoidance doesn’t always mean laziness. Sometimes it means:
It feels uncomfortable.
It requires effort before reward.
It forces us to slow down when we’re used to rushing.
It reminds us of a version of ourselves we’re still becoming.
That skipped habit might be small, but the resistance you feel toward it carries a message.
The Hidden Significance of the Avoided Task
Think about that thing you always avoid. Is it the gym? Planning your day? Cleaning your space? Making that healthy meal?
Often, the habit we skip is the one that would make our life noticeably better if we embraced it. It’s the little hinge that swings the big door.
Making your bed gives you order. Reading gives you clarity. Stretching gives you awareness. Planning gives you direction. Meditation gives you peace.
Yet somehow, we drift past them because they don’t demand urgency—only discipline.
The Real Question: What Happens When You Stop Skipping It?
Life shifts in powerful ways when you decide, “Today, I won’t step over this part of myself.” Small routines build self-trust. Self-trust builds consistency. Consistency builds the life you want.
You don’t need to transform everything overnight. Just pick that one skipped routine and give it a chance this week.
Let it surprise you.
Routines are more than tasks—they are promises we make to our future selves. And the part you always try to skip? That might just be the promise worth keeping the most.
What’s the coolest thing you’ve ever found (and kept)?
I just asked my colleague at work this question and she said that the coolest thing or rather the coolest person she had found and is still keeping will have to be her fiance.
According to her, ever since Gabriel came into her life, she has been very happy, cheerful and peaceful because he brought joy into her life, makes her smile and laugh more often. Even at work, sometimes I get jealous because the attention he gives her is out of this world 🙃…..don’t mind me just kidding….. 😆
I have never seen such love, such connecting, and such commitment before, it’s just so magical and I hope and pray they will continue igniting this joy within them and live happily ever after.
Thank you for stopping by and reading this my dear beloved friends. Enjoy the rest of your evening 😊 😘
I am not a fan of podcasts, and I don’t have anyone I’m listening to at the moment. But I think its high time to change the narrative.
I would really love a recommendation for a very good ones from you my dear readers 😊. If there’s any good podcast you are enjoying right now, please let me know in the comments, because I would love to enjoy it with you as well. 🤗❤
