1. Acknowledge Your Weakness:

You need to first acknowledge that there is an issue, it could be an habit or addiction. 

2. Set Realistic Plans:

You can’t choose to be self disciplined by mouth, you have to work it out, it requires hardwork.

Set out plans on how you want to overcome the habit or addiction. Example: Stay off social media for 6hours.

3. Resist Temptation When It Comes:

Yours could be that you don’t want to buy on credit again. 

This means that when anyone tells you to take something and pay later, resist the urge to take it and move on.

Yours could be no taking of Soda this month. 

4. Always Think Of The Long Term Results:

Think about the result of what you are doing now. Let your focus always be on the positive results you would be getting from being self disciplined. Don’t think short term, think long term.

5. Have Accountability Partners:

It would be a good idea if you have someone you are accountable to. The person is able to monitor your progress. 

Don’t forget to try out these steps today,remember it’s a gradual process. Give it time.

Marriage, Career and being a mom can be exhausting, and for some, it’s a struggle

doing everything within their power to maintain a good work-life balance, keeping the home

, taking care of their kids and having time for themselves.

Did I just hear you say you are tired and exhausted? First you deserve all the applause,

I mean how do you juggle being a wife; your husband is your baby o, then being a mom.

Now imagine you have more than a kid, that’s enough work already, then you still have a 9-5.

I need you to clap for yourself. 

Honestly combining all these can be exhausting most times, I mean it literally seems as though

you don’t have a life of your own and you are living everyone’s life. 

Pause and take a deep breath, it’s okay to get tired and sometimes take a break to pull yourself back together.

Here are 5 major ways you can deal with it:

1. Put your trust in God:

The truth is your strength may fail you. You should write these verses out and paste

them on your wall, either in the kitchen or in your study room.

When I am afraid,

I put my trust in you.

In God, whose word I praise,

in God, I trust; I shall not be afraid.

What can flesh do to me?”

-Psalm 56:3-4

The LORD is my strength and my shield;

in him my heart trusts, and I am helped;

my heart exults,

and with my song I give thanks to him.”

-Psalm 28:7

“Trust in the LORD with all your heart,

and do not lean on your own understanding.

In all your ways acknowledge him,

and he will make straight your paths.”

-Proverbs 3:5-6

A life without Jesus is nothing, so when next you feel overwhelmed about your

home and career, look unto Jesus to help you out, and he will always come through for you. 

Your home, kids and career are your ministry: The moment you no longer see this as a chore

is the moment you start enjoying every bit of experience. 

2. Meet frustration with love:

Frustration is normal while juggling many responsibilities, however it should not get the better of you.

Instead of getting frustrated when your partner or child is acting reach out back to them in love.

You can make a funny face or just gently and lovingly look at them and offer them a hug. 

3. Plan weekly or monthly outings:

It’s okay to plan weekly or monthly outings with your family. This would help you bond more with them.

This a once-a-week or once a month shows your family how committed and important they are to you.

It brings more joy into your life as a family and as a couple.

4. It’s okay to take a break:

You might feel guilty wanting to try this out, but to avoid total burnouts it’s okay to take a day

and let your partner or your kid’s if they are old enough be aware of this.

Let them know that mummy is resting. 

5. It’s okay to get an external help:

You might have your reservations around this but know that it’s okay to get help.

If it means you have to hire a cook or sort please do, it even helps you to be more productive. 

These are the few tips I would be sharing with you. Which of them would you be trying out?

Please drop your responses in the comment section. We look forward to hearing from you.

It’s good to be happy but it takes wisdom to keep the relationship.

Here are a few tips to know before you say yes to that guy.

1. Discover and build yourself: You need to discover yourself first before you start discovering your partner,

you must know your strength, your weaknesses, your gifts, your abilities first.

Also build yourself, you don’t have to wait till marriage before you start building yourself.

Start now, work on your character, be financially stable. You can’t choose to be a liability to your partner.

2. Build on the word of God: As a Christian if you choose to follow the word,

a lot of things won’t be hard for you in marriage. There is a way you will walk with God that

if he instructs you to do anything it won’t be hard for you. You must learn to be slow to speak,

you must have self control, marriage isn’t going to change anyone instead it amplifies things.

3. Get counsel: Counselling cannot be over emphasized,

you can’t claim to know it all. It’s better to seek counselling.
