Investing your time in you

Image
How you spend your time tells you who you are. Think about what is it that you want to create with your time. How you commit your time and how you spend your time tells exactly what you are committed to. How much time do you spend everyday working on your dream? In the last year what new skill or knowledge have you acquired? What kind of Investment have you made in you? Lots of people as soon as they punch out they rush home to do nothing, they rush home just to sit and do nothing. You have to give in everything you have, This is a life class that means we have the opportunity to learn how to maximize our lives. Think of the things you are doing that somebody else could be doing and think of yourself as a precious commodity. Reserve your energy for your highest and best use. All the successful people have the exact time that you have each day, so what they do that you might not be doing is that, they always invest in themselves, they put time in something that th...

Breaking those habits might be tough, but wearing the best can complement you without breaking that “on point” looks. Most People tend to lose their styles and wear colours that don’t even complement each other.   Looking more fashionable isn't always about wearing the trendiest, most expensive clothes, or mastering some complex styling tricks. Sometimes it's as easy as just tucking in your shirt or throwing on a pair of sunglasses. Fashion is now modernised unlike in previous decades where shorts were a barrier to look good, where caps were only for mans and colour blocking for traditional people, now fashion allows people to wear layers without looking overdressed, wearing those clothes that not only complement their bodies but that are also comfortable and fashionable. Combination of colours can attract attention, set a mood or even influence emotions and perceptions. We all have that one favourite outfit that we wear over and over again but that should...

Don’t wait until graduation to start your job search, it might sound obvious, but this is a common mistake. Job-hunting is a long process, persevere. In fact, start making your post-career. It takes dedication and ability to commit yourself to work. It’s a door to door knock until one notices that you have the ability to do what is neede...
