TIPS ON CREATING A LIFE YOU ADORE

Reinvent Your Life

Instead of blaming your parents, ex-partner, or children for not living the life you desire and deserve, use your past as a learning experience and stepping stones towards success.

Everyone holds the potential to gradually mold their life into a delightful masterpiece. While we were encouraged to dream big in our youth, now is the time to pursue your grand vision. Take action, craft the life you truly love!

A vital step in reinventing your life and crafting a life you adore is engaging in self-reflection. Delve deep within yourself, exploring even the areas that may be painful. Instead of dwelling on them, let these experiences serve as motivation for transformation.

Here are some tips to kickstart your journey of reinventing your life: Begin journaling regularly.

Integrate meditation into your daily routine.

Connect with nature intentionally by taking a nature walk.

Integrating faith into your transformation will undoubtedly help you appreciate the new version of yourself in your fresh chapter of life.

Banking 101 Understanding Products and Services offered by your Financial Institution by

Alysia Perry Banking today looks and feels completely different than it did 10 years ago. In an ever-changing industry, gone are the days where you went into your neighborhood bank branch to engage with the staff while completing your transaction. With modern technology and banks keeping up with their competitors, this nostalgic touch may feel nonexistent to some. In this article, I’d like to explore some of the products and services offered that you may not be privy to.

Everyone has a basic checking or savings account. A checking account is traditionally used to pay bills and everyday expenses out of while a savings account is used for the obvious, to save.

Many financial instituations are now looking for you to keep or maintain a minimum balance to avoid service fees.

Ask if the bank offers any incentive for having accounts there? Are there any incentives for referring a friend or family member to open an account. Many banks will deposit funds into your account and your referral’s account after a few stipulations have been met, (eg. good account history, using online or mobile banking, debit card utilization, etc.)

24.

Many of us are on the go and busy with our daily lives and may not be able to find the time each day to do our banking. Therefore, banks are now offering convenient services that cater to their on-the-go customers. What does your institution do to make banking quicker and easier for you? Many offer mobile banking, online banking with bill pay, or the ability to pay a person, debit and credit cards with perks and the list goes on.

Think about your specific financial needs. Are you looking to purchase a home soon? Check to see if your institution has a mortgage department. Are you looking to consolidate debt? Inquire about a personal loan or credit card. Are you currently a homeowner looking to purchase an investment property, paying college tuition, or medical expenses? Inquire about a Home Equity Term Loan or Line of Credit to maximize your savings rates. Do you need to build or repair credit? Inquire about unsecured/secured credit card options. Are you changing jobs and not sure what to do with your retirement plan? Inquire about having a financial check up done by an investment specialist to be sure that you are maximizing your earnings.

These are basic services offered to customers but there are even more to learn about.

Schedule an appointment with a service representative at your local branch to have a thorough overview of what services are available to you.

By doing this you are educating yourself and are now equipped with tools and knowledge to share with someone else.

MOTHER’S WHO PRIORITIZE

SELF-CARE IS IT POSSIBLE TO CONQUER MOTHERHOOD, WHILE PRIORITIZING YOUR SELF CARE?

Make You A Priority

Yes it is. Prioritizing self-care is crucial for parenting effectively. Parenting doesn't come with a manual, and not every mother has guidance from their own mother or grandmother on how to raise children.

YOU CAN LOOK BEAUTIFUL ON THE OUTSIDE AND STILL BE FIGHTING FOR YOUR LIFE INTERNALLY. Just like me, prioritizing self-care, focusing on inner beauty, and healing from past hurts should always be the aim to enable you to flourish in all aspects of motherhood and life in general.

THE LEMONS THEY THREW AT YOU AND THE ONES LIFE HANDED YOU Instead of dwelling on the why and who, focus on creating the most refreshing bittersweet juice ever! It may be bitter due to the pain, but it's sweet because what was meant for harm, God can turn into good.

Whether someone has betrayed you, you've lost a job, your child is misbehaving, or you're facing tough times like eviction or divorce, trusting in God can turn things around. The pain you're experiencing can also fuel remarkable strength. So, why not turn those lemons into lemonade? Take it one step at a time, lean on your faith, enhance your prayer life, and seek support from others so you can walk in wisdom and bring blessings to those around you.

Who would have thought that gardening could offer more than just enhancing the beauty of a home? Gardening has the power to bring inner peace. Observing a well-maintained garden can bring happiness. By nurturing the land with your gardening skills, you may discover that it brings both joy and tranquility.

The variety of beautiful colors and shapes that blossom in each season is vast. Some individuals choose to adorn their homes with plants in lovely flower pots, while others hire a landscaper to care for their gardens. In either case, plants, roses, flowers, or geraniums can create an ambiance that makes your guests feel as though they have entered paradise.

Think back to your childhood when you used to admire the lovely roses in your neighbor's yard – perhaps you plucked one or received one as a gift. Now, as an adult, can you understand why our neighbors might be upset? The effort, time, money, and care invested in planting, watering, and tending to these roses are truly valuable.

Benefits of Gardening and Connecting with Nature Gardening is a tranquil hobby that engages multiple senses.

Nurturing plants enhances the aesthetics of your home.

CAN YOU THRIVE in your

WAITING SEASON During certain moments in life, as a person of faith, you might experience a standstill, where things seem stagnant and prayers go unanswered. This period may give the impression that you have been overlooked by God – it's simply known as a season of waiting.

Have you ever been in a season of waiting and felt the urge to hurry things along? Have you ever had a conversation with God expressing your impatience? Your waiting period can be a week, a month or a few years. I want to encourage you to wait & watch with expectancy.

God advises us to practice patience and remain calm while waiting. Some struggle to wait with patience, even as believers serving God. One might assume that faith and service would exempt them from waiting. However, if a wait is required, it's natural to hope it won't be too lengthy.

I believe it is possible to thrive in your season of waiting. What is “THRIVE”. Thrive means to flourish. A waiting season doesn’t have to be a season of distress. You can still do well in your waiting season. This picture marked a year of me waiting for God to do something in my life. What a tough time it was.

During a period of waiting, God is initiating a new chapter. He is actively shaping and preparing you for what lies ahead. This phase involves stretching you to enhance your endurance. If thriving involves growth and advancement, doesn't this align perfectly with God's intention behind waiting? Emerging from this waiting period, you will possess a heightened sense of trust, patience, and maturity that will contribute to your success in life.

52.

Your period of waiting can either bring you closer to God or push you further away. During my own time of waiting, I found solace in reading and praying more. I made a conscious effort not to let bitterness take hold, seeking the Lord in prayer, much like Hannah did during her time of barrenness.
