January 2023

There is a thin line between original and counterfeit. For various reasons, it is increasingly becoming difficult to get the original. People have lost their original identities and lifestyles and it becomes almost impossible for them to retrace their steps to originality. It is difficult to maintain originality without guidance from the universe. You will be tempted to walk away from your precious original nature that the universe gifted you in the beginning.

The good news is that the universe is sending divine help your way. Are you ready for it?

The savior is here!

The universe loves you. She has always loved you. Whoever loves you unconditionally will find a way to rescue you, even when you are stuck. She is reaching out to you out of her deep love. You will finally retrace your steps back to originality and live your true lifestyle. Everything shall lay bare before you and you can make informed decisions. There are rules to guide you back to finding your originality and becoming the best you could ever be – the best worker in your company, business person, student, group member, or wherever you could be.

1. Listen to your inner voice.

Do not ignore the still small voice speaking within you. It is your spirit communicating directly with the universe. Your inner voice is always right. It guides and advises you when everyone else abandons you. It is mostly overlooked because it is less persuasive compared to worldly temptations. The universe speaks to our spirits through conscience. It is the conviction of right and wrong. You will feel guilty when you knowingly stray from the right original path to follow your selfish desires. Stay in the lane of originality by listening to your inner voice.

2. Do not be afraid to be different.

Well, the original is different. Ten people maintaining their originality are all different from each other. It is not true to assume that you will be like every ordinary Tom, Dick, and Harry when you remain original. Originality is not uniformity. Nature is not uniform and so is originality. There are hills, mountains, valleys, plains, and plateaus. They all have different features and climates yet they are all part of nature.

This is how beautiful it is when you decide to be different. Do not be afraid to do things differently. Different is beautiful.

Look at the different climates worldwide. The winter in Canada, the hot climate in North Africa, the Mediterranean climate of western Europe, and the tropical climate of Australia, sometimes all happening at the same time make the science of nature very unique. It can accommodate diversity gracefully. The beauty of being different makes you original in your right.

3. Be ready for a small beginning.

Everything major once had a small beginning. Originality starts with baby steps but eventually grows to leave elephant footprints. Nothing genuine grows big overnight. It takes some time to grow it into something reputable.

Otherwise, the modern world is offering success readily served on a platter. It looks attractive but it’s not long-lasting. Grow your original idea through all the stages of growth. Work on your business, no matter how small it may be, and the universe promises you expansion.

The best teacher is how rain is formed. A small cloud is blown by the wind across the sky and it grows over time (depending on the prevailing weather). The same cloud then gets pregnant with rain and it pours heavily.

We hardly appreciate how the rain was formed and assume it was brought by the big dark clouds that we saw in the sky. The small fist-like cloud eventually grew bigger and brought the blessing of rain.

Your small beginning on an original idea will eventually grow into something bigger and better.

4. Be like the wind.

Do you love the wind? I not only love it but also admire this beautiful act of nature. The wind is mysterious in a good way. You can neither see nor touch it. You can only feel it and tap into its goodness. There is a valuable lesson that nature is teaching us – that what is original can be felt. It cannot be ignored. Your choice to stay on the original path shall be felt by everyone in your orbit.

There is nothing wrong with being mysterious like the wind. Whatever your original design or plan in life is, adopt the wind approach. Put in all the hard work and you shall have direction – just like the wind – blowing to the right or the left. On your original path, your success can be measured and it is undisputed. The strength of the wind is measured by a windsock – wind filling the sock-like bag indicates how strong the wind is blowing. This important measurement influences decisions in aviation.

Your progress on the path of originality equally influences a lot of things in your life. This is the path that the universe has chosen for you.

5. The original is consistent.

The sun and the solar system are part of the universe in space. The silent rule governing originality is consistency. Follow up on your idea and be consistent in making it work. This gives you a lifeline even when challenges arise to cut you off. You can avoid accidents when you are consistent.

“Accidents” like the solar and lunar eclipses in space are caused by a lack of consistency of the sun and moon to remain in their orbits. But most of the time all year round when planets in the solar system remain in their orbits, everything runs smoothly with zero inconveniences. Choose to stay consistent in your orbit and your life will not be chaotic. You shall be an example to be emulated all through. This is the Universe’s plan for you.

The Universe’s rules of originality will guarantee your success this new year. It does not matter if you failed before, here is a second chance to retrace your steps to your origin.  

We want the food we eat to be tasty, delicious, and mouth-watering. Food that will make you ‘worship’ the chef. Good food unites people from all over and they will always look forward to when they will meet again. The recipe for tasty food is a closely guarded secret that barely leaves the kitchen. After all, if you know how to cook it yourself then you will no longer need the chef.

PS: What is your favorite food and do you know its recipe?

There are several ways in which the universe operates that remain a mystery. You may have unsuccessfully tried to figure it out. This is the recipe that barely leaves the kitchen. Anyway, there is nothing to worry about because you are still a beneficiary of the universe’s kitchen. Nature serves you with happiness, purpose, health, growth, leadership, and long life. All this depends on what you order from the menu. If you earn the universe’s trust, then you can be trusted to enter the kitchen. You can interact with the staff there and make new friends.

Modern-day unhappiness.

Do you feel lonely, sad, or stressed?

Most people, especially at this age, are very unhappy. They tolerate their marriages, jobs, businesses, and everything they do instead of enjoying them. You could be at work in the morning and you immediately look forward to lunch break. At noon, you are already wishing it was evening. Life becomes an endless cycle of complaints. How unfortunate! The good news is that there is a solution. The universe can give you the freedom of everlasting happiness that is missing in your life.

The secret recipe.

The universe has shone its light on the secret recipe for happiness. It will cure our lives and restore our original joy. It is His will that we do not drown in self-pity and complain about everything. It’s kitchen time! Here are the ingredients.

1.     Self-love.

Self-love is an important ingredient in happiness. It is the starting point. Do not break your back taking care of other people and in the process forget about yourself. You serve others better when you are in a better state yourself. Gift yourself nice clothes, eat good food, explore your hobbies, and prioritize every good thing for yourself. Appreciating yourself for your effort and work well done will make you feel important. It will boost your self-esteem and give you one more reason to smile.

Do you recall anything you did for yourself and were proud of it? Constantly treating yourself better makes you happy. Happy people make others happy too because they are not bitter. Their positive energy creates an aura of positivity and possibility. It is a win-win.

2.     Appreciating nature.

Go mountain hiking. Visit that game drive. Take a walk in the forest. Go bird watching. There is nothing as beautiful as nature. Its beauty is unexplainable and our spirits connect with our environment automatically. The sight of beautiful rivers, landscapes, beautiful skies, the ocean, and every other creation, works magic in our spirit. Why so? Because nature is our natural habitat. We just don’t know it enough. When you are unplugged from nature, you suffocate with sadness. Even doctors prescribe the morning sun and sunset rays as a source of vitamin D.

Life without appreciating the beauty of nature is like fish taken out of water. It will struggle and eventually die because it has been taken out of its habitat. Your happiness lies in nature. The evening wind will do you more good than watching a movie and watching the stars at night will give you peace. Appreciate nature more and your smile will be permanent.

3.     Family time.

The family is an underrated blessing. Quality family time with your children, spouse, or parents is something that is slowly fading in this generation. This is why you must seek it aggressively for you to be happy. Your family will love you unconditionally; not because you have money, a good job, or a successful business, but because you are one of them. You are their father, mother, brother, sister, son, or daughter.

My friend once told me about the value of the family blessing. They are the reason we go to work. We want them to spend the money we make. Why would you go to work for money that you will not get to enjoy with your family? Our happiness is to see our family content and happy.

The family connection remains a mystery. The universe designed it so that we are happy when our family is happy. Create your happiness today.

4.     Discovering your purpose.

Your purpose is very important in the recipe for happiness. It motivates you to wake up in the morning and face the day at hand. The blessing of the universe for that day is hidden in what is your purpose for the same day. At the end of the day, week, month, or year, what do you want to have fulfilled? Whatever your answer is – that is your purpose.

There is satisfaction in living up to your purpose. You are happy for absolutely no reason that you can explain at the moment. This is the power of your purpose. It is like a well that does not dry up even during the dry season. Every other thing that makes you happy at face value can be taken away or even die a natural death except your purpose. It is inborn and resilient to challenges.

Discover your purpose and hold on to it like an infant grabs her mother’s hand. Only then shall you be happy forever.

Eternal happiness.

The universe wants to grant you eternal happiness. Not as the world or friends give you, but with a touch of divinity. It is fulfilling, loving, and selfless. You do not have to hurt someone else for you to be happy. There is enough space for everyone.

Now that you have the secret recipe for happiness, the universe entrusts you with the responsibility of being an agent of happiness.
