In every end, there is also a beginning.

1. When life does not go as planned, breathe and remember that life’s richness often comes from its unpredictability.
2. Sometimes you just have to accept the fact that things will never go back to how they used to be, and that this ending is really a new beginning.
3. One of the most peaceful mindsets ever begins the moment you finally find the courage to let go of what you can’t change. It is what it is. Accept it, learn from it and move on. It doesn’t matter what you’ve done; what matters is what you choose to do from here.
4. The secret to getting ahead is to focus your energy not on fixing and fighting yesterday, but on building and growing something new right now.
5. Even if you have a good reason to be angry and resentful about what happened, don’t. Channel your energy into thoughts and actions that actually benefit your life today.
6. Your world can be an entirely different place than the world you lived in just a few moments ago, once your attitude toward it changes.
7. The situation does not determine your response. YOU determine your response. Take a moment now to pause and remember who you truly are. Take time to reflect on the things that have real and lasting meaning in your life.
8. Life doesn’t owe you anything else, because you already have everything you need. But you do owe yourself the courtesy of making the best of it.
9. Don’t procrastinate. Don’t waste your time wishing for a “better” starting point. Instead, make use of the real and present starting point you have, and get going.
10. Be humble. Be teachable. The world is bigger than your view of the world. There’s always room for a new idea, a new step… a new beginning.

Take care of yourself__"The first wealth is health".

By Strive Masiyiwa  A few weeks ago I went to the doctor. I will tell you what he said about my health at the end, but first read this: Twenty years ago, I arranged to meet a well-known British international businessman who invested a lot in Africa at the time. We agreed to meet for dinner at a leading hotel in London.  After a good meeting, we started to walk out of the restaurant when he suddenly collapsed in the lobby. There was total pandemonium as they rushed to get medical assistance. Being London, an ambulance arrived in minutes. I jumped in the back with him as paramedics wrestled to keep him alive.
