The Work Out Plan
The most interesting thing about a workout is the fact that you cannot see the end products of your working out immediately after starting. The beginning in always the hardest. The discipline you have to subject yourself to does not come naturally.
You will have to go against all odds in working towards that overall outlook you have pictured.
A workout plan is engineered according to once abilities to fulfill it. We all have a choice of how we would like our workout plan to be like. One of the reason we can stay committed to this plan is because we have full ownership of it.
Every individual in the world has to come to a point where they decide how they want to live their lives. According to skills and abilities we have in us, we choose they course of Life we would like to live. In choosing (Dream) the kind of Future we want, we work towards that particular picture we have in our minds. This is why it is very important that we have a picture of the future.
My mentor Coach Boago F Ramogapi would advice us to have cut out pictures of the kind of house, car, Life we would like to live.
The fundamental significance of this exercise is to always remind you why you are doing that which you are doing.
After ever workout, we go to the mirror to check if there is any progress. The picture of the figure we want is so clear that we will push even harder to get the best result in a shorter space of time.
HOW MOTIVATED ARE YOU TO SEE YOURSELF LIVING THE KIND OF LIFE YOU DESIRE?
Just as we are disciplines to workout daily for the figure we want, we must be focused on the overall Life Goal and never loose focus on what really matters to us.
Research shows us that: In the same way that a car stores fuel in a fuel tank, muscles have evolved the ability to store glucose, fatty acids and amino acids on-board. All three fuels are burned for energy in the mitochondria, organelles within muscle cells that function much like a car engine.
Every individual is packaged with something which gives them the abilities to enable them to attain all round prosperity.
Just as the muscle has enough fuel to get it through a workout, everyone has something in them, and that something will acquire you all round success if you utilize it to the full.
The motivation you get everyday you work out is the picture of the future you saw. Going to the mirror after every workout is you checking if whether you are there or not.
HOW DO YOU MEASURE YOUR SUCCESS?
We do not want to find ourselves having over worked our bodies. There is a picture of the kind of figure we are aiming for. The goal is to reach it and work on maintaining it.
This is a Life principle in which every Successful Person operates.
My mentor once gave us a quote at one of his empowerment sessions. He quoted one of the motivational teachers of our time and said that successful people achieve success early in life and work to manage it.
Final Words
It is important that have a picture of how we want our future to look like. The reason why we can endured to heart aches we experience through life is the clarity of the dream we have.
Have a picture of your Future and work towards it
The Sensitivity of Growth
Growth has both its Pros and Cons
Remember that 1 jacket you Loved but had to give it away because it didn't 'Fit' you?
This a concept which we see in the friends we loose in every step we take.
Remember in High School, we would sign t-shirts so as to remember the people who were detrimental in your moving forward from one level to the next?
This was the symbolic meaning of us showing those people how much they mean to us.
We want to remember the good times we had, the childish fights we had and the good chats we shared
The cons of Growth have robbed many of us of the happiness we thought we sought after.
Before we reach success, its very important that we keep those who truly care for us as close as we can. Growth brings change.
Its important that we keep those we Love dearest close to us. Let us not Over-grow the very people who were there for us when the world wasn't.
I PROMISE TO MAKE TIME FOR YOU!!

Closing a Chapter In Your Life
Life as we know is made in 2's:
Day and Night,
Male and Female,
Black and White,
Life and Death.
The same Analogy can be used when you end one part of your life and you go on to begin the next.
We move from day to day without the realization of how different yesterday was from today. We do not take the time to analyse how yesterday was.
'Our lives are like a page with 2 sheets printed on each side' - When you turn the page and transition to a new day; Ensure first that you create a Summary section of the previous day before you move on to the next. As you turn the page moving forward to the next day, you have to understand that whatever happened yesterday is a build up to the next day.
Unless and until your close one chapter of your life and move to the next; you will continue to turn the pages of life and move from day to day, month to month, year to year, with no definitive plan of your future.
A young man such as; Andy Moithuti Batlhophi closed a chapter in his life when he moved from being in the party scene to a lifestyle of being perceived as young leader. I myself had to stop the drinking, the smoking and the partying just so i can make a difference in the lives of those around me.
You cannot read 2 chapters at the same time. The context of one chapter, will distort the other and you will find yourself in 2 worlds not knowing exactly where you belong. In my 20 years of living, i had turned the pages in my Life Book from one page to the next, not knowing what the final chapter of my Book entailed.
It takes a brave, revelated individual to move from one chapter of their life, to the next. Until you move on to the next chapter of your life, you will continue to build on to the past discrepancies of yesterday.
Be Bold enough to move on to better things. You can determine how the final chapter of your life will be written but only if you ensure that the life you live today, is one that you would have bargained for.
-Success is a Choice away. Decide today and you too will live a life you have complete control over

How Checking Your Spelling Can Save Your Future
Honestly i enjoyed coming up with that title :)
As individuals we have defined Life according to what other individuals outline is important.
Example: 'We go to school because someone made us believe that it will get us a job. On the other hand, some individuals will now tell you that school will award you the knowledge to compete in the market'.
The things that matter to us have been defined by someone. Question now is; What have you adopted to work for you?
Do you live through Life believing what you believe because you heard something from someone?
Our lives are at the Mercy of the people we connect to. With that said: How then do you control and maintain your relationships?
Now to our title: 'How Checking Your Spelling Can Save Your Future'. Not to advertise anyone but Microsoft Word a feature called Spelled Check. We use this feature to ensure that whatever we post is acceptable by the set standards of society.
The Education System has adopted this phenomena, You will be told to check your work after writing your exam. By checking your work, you are simply saying that you want to make sure that whatever you submit for marking will be accepted by the examiner. I hope you smiling right about now because you realize where i'm going.
When replying someone on Social Media, do you read through your message before sending? By reading through it, you are simply saying that you ensure that whatever you send will be accepted by the other individual on the other line.
'Acceptable' here means adequate for purpose. This goes on to say that whatever you reply has to be in line with the purpose of your relationship with that individual.
Example; The purpose of your relationship with your Parent is that they provide for you whenever you are in need. The way you reply them when they talk to you should be adequate to the purpose of their relation to you. This is different from your Partner. When your partner is angry with you, your response should be 'Acceptable'. You may be silent and not reply because your response must be adequate for the purpose of your relationship. By choosing to be silent, you have understood the purpose of your relation, being so you have chosen to give an 'Acceptable' response.
Before you reply someone, think about what you are about to say. Run the statement twice in your mind before saying it. The first words you think of saying are inspired by your emotions. Breath in, then Breath Out. Thereafter you can be sure that you will give an 'Acceptable' response.
**The ideology of 'Checking Your Spelling' can save your future in that you consider the other person before saying anything to them**

The Ordinary Hero
As individuals, we should learn to be appreciative of everyone we meet. We should learn to see potential and good in everyone we come in contact with. The same person you see in tartered clothes today may be the same person who saved a life 3 minutes ago. The Ordinary Hero does not have a title to his name, does not wear expensive clothes and eat in restaurants. The Ordinary Hero is that individual you meet at the Bus terminal. The Ordinary Hero is a humble man. She does not do good because she wants something in return. She gives 100% to everything she does. Opportunities follow the Ordinary Hero because everybody notices his good works. People call her because they need someone like that in their lives.
Have a positives outlook to everyone you meet. The Ordinary Hero might be the next person you meet and that may be the breakthrough you always needed. Be the Ordinary Hero everybody needs in their lives
