Don't just listen to God's word Don't just listen to God's word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves. James 1:22 Listening to God's word can ease pain, relieve stress, remove your anxieties and worries, and lessen your burdens. Yes, that is a big fact. But, are you really sure your into God's words by just listening or reading it? Did you ever try to practice the sayings? Did your ever realized that you're only reading the bible and not doing the bible's teachings? Well, if that's the case, I can help you with that. We can help each other. I'll share my insights and advices for you. Disclaimer, this is based on what I learned on teachings and sharing of insights from the church of ours. So, to be able to practice the teachings, you should try to do or follow these steps. Prepare your bible. Nowadays, people have bible apps on their cellular phones or any gadgets, yes it you can use that. But, I prefer to use the bible book for not getting distracted. Pray. Pray for the Lord's power and guidance. He will lesd us to the right path. Read. Read the bible. But, dont just read. Understand what you've read. Reading without understand won't help you to understand the verses. So read slowly and with understanding. I advice to take note of the verse or verses that hits you. I mean the verses that ypu can relate to. Then start doing the next step. Meditate. Through meditating think of the verses you've read that give you chills. Relax. Take your time in meditating. Dont rush. You'll feel comfortable and relaxed. Do it. Since you've understand the verses you've read. Now it's time to put them into practice! I know it'll be hard. But try to do it little by little it really works, swear. I'm not perfect I make mistakes. But, why not improve these imperfections? There's nothing wrong with trying, right? So, we should apprehend God's words, meditate verses even a verse per day. Repent our sins. And, share the word of the Lord. Get your bible now! So, if you have steps to add to my steps feel free to comment it down and I'll try to do it as well. Thanks for reading! God bless!

I lost my confidence to dance Hey guys! It's story time. This is kinda long but i'll hope you'll read til the end. Enjoy! Eversince I was a little girl, I really loved to dance. We have a DVD player at home, and I always turned that on. Play some upbeat music. I'll lock the door of my room then try to create some dance moves. The feeling was unexplainable when I get to choroegraph a dance of a song alone. There are times when my danceable spirit will comeout of nowhere and my body just wanna move and groove, and I dance on the bed. Do some stunts and bendings. It was so much fun to imagine I'm in a stage dancing my heart out, where in real life it was just a bed. lol. haha. I always join in class intermission numbers at school whenever an event is coming. My teachers as well as classmates noticed my dancing skills. I always get compliments from people who watched me danced. I even became a dance leader of our class. I prepared and choreograph a whole dance for an intermission number in the recognition rites when I was in elementary school. That's the thing that I'm really proud of myself during my childhood. Dancing was my passion before. But everything changed when I entered high school. No one notices the thing where I'm good at. There's this time when our class must select dancers that will represent our class. All I thought was, I will be chosen as one of the dancers that will represent our class in a grade level competition. But nah, I wasn't able to dance because I'm not chosen and no one sees the potential of me dancing, that my skills are only for classroom and just enough to satisfy the teacher who will grade the way I dance. I feel bad on writing this, cause it feels like i'm ranting. Haha. But yeah, that's the time when I started to think that maybe they're right, I'm not really a good dancer, well no one approached me then said im not a good one. I just feel it from their decisions on not choosing me. And I thought that it's because I don't have looks. I'm not pretty. I don't have clear and flawless skin. And I'm not a close friend of the class leader. I accept the fact that there are really good dancers in our class better than me. From that moment, I started questioning myself, 'why i'm still pushing myself to dance?', 'why i'm still hoping that someone will notice that I can do what others can do?' , 'why not just accept the truth that im not a dancer?' ๐ I still dance when needed at school, or when I missed dancing. I dance at home, where no one can see me, no one knows that I dance, no one will underestimate my skill and I will just enjoy being me. From then on, I lost my interest in dancing, lost my confidence, lost self-esteem and started to be ashamed of myself, and that's when I also started to slowly become an introvert. It's still me a girl who loved to dance that no one appreciates except myself. Maybe I'm just too confident that I really dance well, but in fact I'm really not. Thanks for reading! This article supposed to be a little longer than this but I decided to remove those parts that has so much info about my high school, because I wanna still hide my indentity here. Feel free to comment down your insights about this, I will really appreciate it. ๐
Staying Productive Brand new day! The sun is up. And it's time to wake up. Thanks God for another day. Okay. Stare for a while then I'll get out of my head, I mean my bed. Straight to the bathroom. Turn on the faucet. I'll let the cold water flow into my palm. Wet my hands then splash water to my face. Do my simple skin care routine. Refreshing. Brush my teeth, gargle, spit out the water. Going back to my room. Fix my beddings. Get my phone, check all social media platforms and oh the person I admire has no stories. It's fine. Back to my bed. Stare at the ceiling. Thinking what to do this morning. Thinking how lazy I'm gonna be today again. How can I make my day productive? Hmmm Being an introvert, I always want to be in a small place and spend my day being there. But that is not healthy, I need to do some physical works. In this article, I will share how I (being an introvert) make my day productive and this is effective for me. Make a plan I do make a plan in my mind and i don't jot them down on my planner since not all plan works. But you can make a a to-do list so you won't forget any of your tasks. Write down the things that you want to do or finish in this day. What I do is just keep them in mind. Remove distractions Keeping your phone, laptop, tablet or iPad away from you and from your sight will help you focus on the things you have to do. Prioritize Choose among your list the most important task and do it. For me, I choose the tasks that eats up most of time. Do one thing at a time They say multitasking is more effective. But it's not. Multitasking won't help you understand what you're doing, especially when you're doing school works. Just focus on one thing, finish it then move to another one to do. Keep your workspace tidy Being a student I always want my workspace clean, I always want my stuffs organized and neat for the sight. It gives me a reason to become more productive. Take a break Don't be too hard on yourself. Dont exhaust yourself. Take a break. Take a nap, but make sure it's just a nap not sleep. Eat. Relax for a little while. After doing all the tasks, you can now reward yourself by doing the things that makes you happy. Thanks for reading this article til the end.๐๐๐ I want to take this opportunity to give thanks to @bheng620 for giving me sponsorship. I'm so thankful and happy for this. You're my first sponsor here. Thank you so much ๐
Are you an Introvert? Which one are you? Since I've published my first article about introverts, and didn't gave enough information, so here are the kinds of introverts. Social Introvert Social introverts are the most outgoing ones, but the most private of all introverts. They dont feel emabarassed at social gatherings but feel emotionally drained if they stay too long. They like to spend time alone, and like small groups of friends they can lean on. Social introverts don't share a lot about themselves to anyone other than their closest friends. Thinking Introvert Thinking introverts are the ones who spend a lot of time in their thoughts, abd has a creative imagination. They're more on daydreaming. They don't mind socializing. People may have a hard time communicating to a thinking introvert because they have a unique talk process and prefer to experience their thoughts rather than explaining themselves to others. Anxious Introvert Anxious introvert are the shy introverts. They crave solitude even when they're with close friends. They feel uncomfortable around a lot of people and social gatherings. They ponder on their behavior whenever they're in public. Restrained Introvert Restrained Introverts are the thinker ones. They think before they make an action amd takes time to make a decision. They go out if they planned for it for enough and advanced time. But more relaxed with themselves. Which kind of introvert are you? Let me know in the comments!
Being an Introvert I'm an introvert. Yes, you've read it right. I don't know but I don't feel comfortable being around of a lot of people. I dont like going to parties, having birthday parties, celebrating events with my relatives, bonding with my cousins, or any event that I'm the center of attraction. I seldom talk at family gatherings. I have a lot of thoughts in my mind, but when i'm about to speak it's suddenly gone. I'm not used to speak in public. Or even in class reportings I don't feel comfortable about it. I love to be alone and spend most of the time in my room reading, watching movies and series, browsing the internet and daydreaming about a lot of stuffs. Weird right? haha. But that is me. So, with that definition of myself you already know what introvert is. I prefer to write rather than talk, but im not a good writer. That's why I tried ReadCash to enhance my skill and learn something new. I also want to make friends even just here in the internet. Some people think that Introverts doesn't like much friends, kinda right, but not all introverts. Some introverts love to be with two or three friends around them. Just like me. I have a lot of friends but I can only count on 3 friends where im really closed to. I enjoy a lot of things in my solitary time. Something that people dont very much aprreciate. But I adore my time being me and that's what really matters. Are you like me? We can be friends here! Hi! Thanks for reading my first article. Im not really good at this but i'll try my best to make it more interesting next time. ๐
