You Inspire Me.
I have often been asked, how do you manage to stay encouraged? What drives you to keep motivating others? How do you juggle between caring for your family, housework, blogging and a YouTube channel?
Well, to be honest, I do face many days when I don’t feel encouraged, days with writer’s block, when I feel exhausted. I quite often feel overwhelmed to juggle between the various roles that I am currently playing especially being a glorified maid by day and a blogger/ YouTuber by night!😅
But there are a few things that help me to keep me going:
🌟Each day I strengthen my walk with my God because I know and believe that HIS grace is enough for me.
🌟I consciously keep negative people at bay. This is my space and I choose who enters it, lest they do and mess with my thoughts.
🌟I remind myself of how passionate I am about my work and keep at it.
🌟I plan my work in advance as much as possible.
🌟 I push myself hard, to take my ‘me’ time.
🌟 I do have cheat days (chocolates & chips) and I don’t beat myself up for having them.
Besides all of the above, there is one thing that makes me want to inspire more and more, makes me want to motivate and encourage people the world over, some days it makes me wanna dance like I did with my twins when I crossed a 💯 subscribers:
💫It is the feedback you send me.
💫The way you support my work.
💫 The love I see in all those messages you send me as well as the comments you post on the blog.
💫It’s the joy I experience by helping you to step out of your comfort zone.
💫The laughter, fun and excitement while planning and executing the talk shows.
💫It is you who encourage me to encourage you.
My journey so far, with Natalie Inspires You, has taught me a few simple truths: Seek to encourage & you will be encouraged. Seek to love & you will be loved. Seek to support others and it will flow right back to you. You never lose by supporting others!
On last week's talk show on my YouTube channel, Natalie Inspires You, we discussed how women can be encouragers to their own tribe.Women can certainly encourage other women; be it in the corporate sector, in a school or church community, in families or in friendship; how women can humble themselves and seek encouragement from women who are way younger than them! This episode managed to put quite a few of us into a mode of encouragement. If you missed it, you can click on the link below for some encouragement.
