Don’t be a job snob!!!

A love language

Facebook have this memories feature. I can’t say it is good or bad because c’mon, I am not the same person that I was 10 years ago. Yesterday it reminded me of a picture I had posted 8 years ago when I was doing a job that will be considered menial.

It was my first end of academic year break. Back when I was at vars, Chuck’s were the thing. Besides them being a thing, I also have a thing or two for sneakers, it is my financial toxic trait. I wanted them so bad but my parents couldn’t afford them so i figured I might as well work to get what I want. As Robert Kiyosaki said, don’t say I can’t afford it, say what can I do to afford it. Since I had 3 months of doing nothing i had that moment of what can I do to…

Self investment, the best investment…

Sunshiny SA Site

If I asked you what your greatest asset was, what would be your response?  Your House? Car? Family? I beg to differ. You are your own greatest asset.  Investing in yourself is the best investment you can make. Everything else will fall into place once the decision to take this powerful responsibility is taken. Nurturing our gifts and honing our latent talents yields amazing personal results. It spills out in other aspects of life and helps serve others better.  Self investment IS the best self love. After all, how can you expect others to love you if you do not love yourself first?  So create and chant those positive  mantras-for-success.  Say yes, take that leap of faith mentally, prioritise yourself with consistent motivation (motivation post here), and watch doors open universally. It all begins with in YOU, for You.

I always worried about “job security”. Not any longer. …

Where there is an ending, there is a new beginning, but I can’t seem to find this new beginning. Some things are hard to live with.

Things like regret, loss, and especially heartbreak. Going through the pain of heartbreak seem like a never ending pain.

These were the words I said to myself one morning as I stared at my image in the mirror.

Hello, my name is John. I work in a digital marketing firm and my job is pretty good.

I am good looking and I know what I want.

I remember using that line in my bio when Isigned up for a dating site. There are various good-looking girls on dating sites, but my first rule is: I must see you physically before Istart anything serious with you. I remembered Jane I met on this dating site a few years back. She appeared good looking in…

It seems like every industry is cutthroat and all about making money. Thankfully, not all industries are like that. If you’re a kind person who wants to help others, there are plenty of great career options for you.

Here are 4 options that require compassion as well as skill.

Physical Therapist

The job of a physical therapist is both mentally and physically demanding. You will need to be able to understand the needs and limitations of your patients, as well as have the stamina to help them with their exercises.

However, the rewards are great. You will get to see people improve day by day, and you will play a vital role in their recovery.

From assisting the elderly in senior care homes with basic movements to helping someone regain the use of their limbs after an accident, you will make a real difference in people’s lives.
