Wear Clothes That Matter ❤ | Soft and Chic | Damie Ojo

“Don’t be into trends. Don’t make fashion own you, but decide what you are.” – Gianni Versace  “Fashion is not necessarily about labels. It’s not about brands. It’s about something else that comes from within you.” —  Ralph  Lauren “When a woman says, ‘I have nothing to wear!’ what she really means is, ‘There’s nothing here for who I’m supposed to be today.’”— Caitlin Moran We are God's Perfect Creation  Beautiful of all Worlds DamieQuotes

Comparison is the Thief of real Joy

Image
" When you go on Facebook it's  kind of like you're going through everyone's pictures and everyone's life, like, oh, that looks like so much fun, oh they're so cool, they're so pretty, they have all these cool pictures" It's so hard to not compare yourself to other people like that's one of the hardest things ever in life. As human beings we just get tempted to compare ourselves to other people in the same field as us. You just feel like you don't have anything, and you just begin to belittle your own achievements. Negative Comments Today the chance of being scrutinized is greater because more people interact through a protected anonymous filter, potentially making self-esteem issues more sensitive. If we find out that we do not have as many likes or comments as our friends in the network, we will feel less confident. Offensive comments can mentally attack us and leave bad emotional scars.Some victims suicided to fini...

10 Things Unhappy People Don't Do

Image
Unhappy People Don't: Say Thank You Saying thank you -and,  more importantly,  meaning it-has actually been proven to make people happier.  Feeling and expressing gratitude is a win for everyone involved.  The person being thanked feels happy for being appreciated,  and the person doing the thanking feels good for making the other person happy. So if you're ever feeling down,  ask yourself : Have I been acting like a jerk lately? If the answer is yes, the odds are pretty good that this behavior is affecting more than just the people you're rude to, it's making you unhappy 😞 . Unhappy People Don't: Take active roles in relationships It's all well and good to have lots of friends and family members, but if you never make an effort to work on or maintain those relationships,  you won't be getting nearly as much out of them as you could be. Reach out: show you care.  Being nice to others can make you happy, too ☺. Unhappy People Don't: Pray o...

Stepping into the unknown| Is it okay to change?

Image
" I am willing to put myself through anything, temporary pain or discomfort means nothing to me as long as I can see that the experience will take me to a new level. I am interested in the unknown, and the only path to the unknown is through breaking barriers, an often painful process" Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frighten us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.  It's not just in some of us, it is in everyone. And as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As w...

The Deep Things Of This World

Image
"Lay up for yourselves not treasures upon the earth, Where moth and rust doth corrupt, And where thieves break through and steal But lay up yourselves treasures in heaven Where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, And where thieves do not break through nor steal For where your treasure is, There your heart be also" Mattew 6 vs 19-21 Thus the most important thing for you and me, as human beings, is to try and find out for the rest of our lives what is the purpose for everything in life, That is our main goal. Unless we ask ourselves,  "What is the purpose for everything in life?".  We will miss the wisdom of God in creation. This wisdom is like a secret that was supposed to be known before we were created. It's a wisdom from God that He is keeping for us. It was in God and now it dwells on us.  In other words, you were born with wisdom that literally came out of God. You have the ability to line up with God. You are in the God class. ...

Emotionally Detach Yourself from Money! 💸

Image
Life becomes simpler and a lot more meaningful when you are emotionally detached from money. A lot of us let our money dictate how we should feel. 💷💵 As a progressive individual, I want to develop the right attitude to money and personal finance. I have been trying to follow this lately, a whole lot better thinking has filled me, and I feel really good about money now! These are ways to develop a "money mindset". You better shape up! In order for us to appreciate, handle, and keep the blessings we receive, something major must be done in the way we feel towards money. Everything takes longer than we think, and so does our "healthy" attitude towards money. 💸 "If you cannot control your emotions, You cannot control your money"                                                             -Warren Buffet Create a Budget...

Self-Discouragement Among Females

Image
This terminology is called 'the impostor syndrome' Both male and female are susceptible to this Although more intensely felt by women Even the most wildly successful influential women in power admit to this Like so many things, a lack of confidence can become a self-fufilling prophecy They stray off their path by giving up their dreams and talents "I feel I don't deserve people's attention' ' I am a fraud' 'They are unto me' Many escape into drug abuse or promiscuity to avoid The nagging voice of their true calling to express their talents Most of them are truly gifted musicians, writers, actors, dancers, public speakers and politicians.  Fear of failure Fear of overreaching Fear of not being liked Fear of being a bad mother, daughter and wife! On the otherhand what tactic women do is to conquer this feeling You have to feel like you are in charge and let the conviction come naturally to you Res...

Within Our Beautiful Imperfections

Image
"A flower does not think of competing with a flower next to it.  It just blossoms" This quote is a good and simple reminder  of living our lives without competing or comparing ourselves to others. We often find ourselves making comparisons  with our peers and those in our vicinity. This often makes us compete with them and even jealous. Learning from others is important but competing is deliberating and it doesn't bring anything good. Let's learn from nature how to be beautiful with who we are. Look at how buds can all blossom into beautiful flowers without any competition.  Each bud is bound to develop into a beautiful flower.  This is also true for the next flower, just like these flowers we all have skills and attributes that when the time and season is right will make us blossom.  We need to understand that different varieties of trees flower at different times,  some are very early whilst others are...

Don't give up easily....Fight 😊

Image
                                       You might be at a place in life where you are beginning to question your progress. Your plans are yet to pan out but everyone you know seems to be flourishing. Every person on your social media and network is doing much better than you are. It could be that you are still battling with your career, business is at its lowest or whatever plan you have isn't taking off as anticipated. You feel dejected 😥, about to give up and losing faith in your journey is different from the next person. We might all start at the same time but your dreams might take longer than you desire or even faster than expected. Never question or doubt your journey just because you are yet to achieve whatever you have planned. Know that it is still okay for your dreams to be realized at a later time 🙏. It might appear as if things are taking longer but realize y...
