And the Lord answered me, and said, "write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that reader it" Habbakuk 2:2 Have you written your vision down? Or do you think the year is coming to an end and therefore no need? When you write your vision and goals down, you give it Life, you give it prospective. It becomes something you are looking forward to do. Yes the year is coming to an end, who says you can't achieve your goals in the next one month, a week or even a day? Who says the paradigm can't change and swing in your favour. Do something today that yourself will thank you for in five years to come. Start by writing your small goals down. But don't just write, TAKE ACTION. Note if you can do it daily, it becomes a habit and habit once formed, will lead you to achieving your goals. Besides, who says you can't plan your year 2021 now. Don't wait for 2021 to come knocking. Start now to write your vision and plan for the new year before it arrives. This way you will be on top of your game. This is the best time to plan for your year 2021. If this has helped you, please share with your contacts or someone you think might benefit for it.

Are people talking you down and telling you, you can't amount to anything? The only validation seem to come from strangers instead of your family or friends. Are you blaming yourself for the death of a loved one and wish you could have done more. Do you have this thought in your head 'if I could have just listened, be there or stay longer, maybe, just maybe she wouldn't have committed suicide or he wouldn't have given up'. Does this guilt and pain weigh on your mind all the time and you don't know how to go pass it, to be the person you want to be. I want you to know, it's not your fault. You must forgive yourself, seek professional help if you have to, talk to someone, a friend or a therapist as this will help you unburden your mind. Let go of the guilt and start living again. Hope this will help someone out there. If no one has told you today, I love you, I believe in you and the unqiue power you have to bounce back.

Today I felt like reading a poem I wrote on commitment to encourage someone. I am Caroline Adebayo, your bouncing back coach. Commitment is a promise you make to yourself to stay focused no matter the storm. What storms are you going through that makes your dreams and visions seem far fetch? I want you to believe in yourself no matter what. It does not matter what people may say, what matters is what YOU say about yourself and another is you believing in your capability to birth that dreams and visions. Hence, the importance of you staying committed. When doubt and fear surrounds you and try to draw you back, allow passion, strength and commitment in yourself lead you through. Its OK to be different. You are unique. Thought someone out there needed to hear this. I love you, I believe in you and the unique power you have to bounce back.

Most of us tends to scream, yell or feel irritated when we are angry. Often times we do not slow down nor weigh our responses before speaking. We want to hit back with the same velocity, we end up screaming in anger. So what should you do? As hard as it can be, try not to speak in the hit of anger. Wait until you are calm enough thereby processing the matter and your responses. This and lots more are in this episode. Hope this episode will help someone out there to manage their anger.
