Looking Back to Finish Well

Looking back to finish well

We are officially in the second half of  2022, and in this landmark Episode #60, I look back at the year thus far. If you are going to finish well, it helps to look back and gather the lessons we have learned. I believe life is jam-packed with lessons, and those lessons come to help us navigate the onward journey. So I thought I’d bring you into my sacred space, my journal, to see some life-changing lessons that didn’t make it into the podcast- or my social media platforms. If living inside out was a book, this episode is what lies between the lines 😁 Some of the gems I share include: Understanding the power of single dimension decisions. The seemingly small everyday tasks have the power to create the life we want or keep us stagnant. Learning to doubt your doubts: Some thoughts come to inform us, but the information isn’t necessarily an instruction. Every day we face two choices, to go for what we desire or to quench the desire itself. Know that the human spirit is dynamic, not fixed. You are constantly evolving to become the person capable of fulfilling your unique purpose. So even when it looks impossible, don’t accept it. Believe you can and allow God to mould you into the person who did. Use mindset tools to get you out of a rut, such as recalling the fantastic things you have done. This helps you to recognise your abilities when challenges conceal them. Next week we will continue with more lessons learned in the year’s first half. Mark your calendar: My much-awaited programme, Get Unstuck, launches at the start of the school year, on the 15th of September. Registration will open on the 30th of July, with minimal spaces. Get Unstuck is my unique system for exposing the mindsets holding you back. I created it because everyone has a desire to excel, but not everyone will live their best life. We place more emphasis on doing than we do on becoming; much activity keeps you busy but not necessarily productive. Our emotions spark our actions, which our thoughts birth. So if you want to change the outcome, you must work backwards to unearth your thoughts.  With more requests for mentoring than I can physically accept, I decided to include free mentoring in the package. I have over 19 years of business experience, and there is nothing that will surprise me about running a business. I am also in my final year of being in my forties, so I come with a bucketload of life experiences too. Head to toksaruoture.com to join my mailing list- or send me a DM. Let’s connect! Let’s connect on Instagram; I have begun a series of lives with female business owners because experience is a great teacher- but it isn’t the only teacher.
