BRICK WALLS

Saluting all my partners who believe in style, worth and class (our aristocratic fundamentals), It’s another Saturday to spend with you and I appreciate your support by just reading this. Have fun. 

Ever wanted to do something and you felt like you were pounding hard against a brick wall? Not that the wall wouldn't break eventually, it was just taking too much of your time, concentration, effort, focus…in fact, it was taking all of you. I went through a similar experience when I was about to start writing this article. Each time I read through, I felt I was missing the mark. I had a topic in mind but the article didn’t seem to be heading in the same direction as the topic.  At some point, I wanted to shut down my laptop and just come back later but I thought, “hey, when would later be?” We all encounter this “brick wall” moment at different times in our lives, we could experience it in trying to form a new habit, go on a diet, et cetera and during this moment many questions rush into our heads like; “How long is this going to take?” “Why am I even doing this in the first place?”, “Is it really necessary?” “Isn’t there another way out?” and the likes… Most times we just want to say “You know what? I’m done with this! There's gotta to be an easier technique” but then we find an “easier” technique and don’t stick to it, whine and quit and there we have the vicious cycle.

Who do we put the blame on in this case…ourselves? No, blaming yourself is too hard a sentence for the crime committed, as it tends to lead to other side effects like depression and I’d like to stress at this point that we don’t even have enough time to live and do all we want, to give some seconds to depression or feeling unworthy. Frustration is part of progress; it’s never one smooth sail all the way. My suggestion would be to ask yourself, “how many unfinished “projects” or things do I have on my plate?” Whether it’s just one or many, the best thing would be to make sure you don’t clog your sink with unfinished projects if you have few, as few + few = a lot in no time and if you have a lot, you don’t want to end up having to pay for damages to the sink. So don’t quit trying to be an early bird or trying to appreciate the people in your life more, better still, don’t quit trying to do something that makes you a better person. The journey may be long and the roads may be winding with too many U-turns but with your eyes on the prize, run to your desires and remember, if you become too weak to run or walk, crawl but go after what makes you happy. Best of all; go after what makes you an unadulterated aristocrat.

Remember to kickback, embrace the colours, live your life to the fullest… enjoy the moment

Loads of love my darling blue-bloods…xoxo.

Also want to debut this amazing wallpaper that my friend designed for the blog... (lovely right?)
