Turn It Up

Hey Guys,

I like to game, play sports and mostly just laze around. My favourite games are Overwatch and League of legends. I'm kinda of an anime fan but I don't watch it as much anymore:).One last thing I want to talk to you guys about is my age, I'm 13, turning 14 on January 21st. These blogs will be about what I'm going through in life so far, and to let you know our experiences in life are almost similar but its just how you deal with whatever you go through. 

We are in the summer holidays and its been a very good time for me. I get to relax, watch Netflix, game and spend time with friends and family. I went to a youth camp with my church called New Day!https://newdaygeneration.org/ That was one of my highlights of the summer break. Its nearing the end of the summer holidays and I am sadly preparing to go back to school. I'm entering year 9 and before that I'm trying to have as much fun as I can. Lesson for this blog is to live life to the fullest.

We recommend visiting 123mentorme on our website www.ruachdiorint.com and check out Brand Me Summer workshop, a good place to pick up some tips as you prepare for the long stretch ahead.

Hi there Young Minds,

I know you are enjoying your holidays and I have no intention of interfering with your leisure time. This is just checking on you to ensure this summer break becomes one of the memorable ones (in a good way) going down in your books of history.

So, what are you giving the two most important resource; time and energy to?, Constantly at the ‘beck and call of it’; constantly on your mind;giving your time to and investing your energy into?

Whatever or whoever you have made yourself available to, is it or are they adding value to you or rather draining you of what you already have?

There is so much to do in this time and I will not be the one to tell you what to do and when to do it because I respect your ability to prioritise and use your time wisely.

I know you know by now that anything you give your time to and invest your energy into, you are giving your life to it.

So the next time you check yourself into doing anything whether on your own accord or with a friend just do the Maths with these two in mind:

1. how much resource of your strength you are investing and
2. what the returns would be.

Calculate in your mind:”this is my time and energy, my life to be exact that I am investing or going to invest into this, is it worth it?” to see how much more worth you are going to come off with engaging in that sort of thing or with that somebody.

If it's not worth your time and energy, then, you know what to do, declare yourself UNAVAILABLE.

Till we catch up again, enjoy the sunshine and if there is no sunshine where you are, wear yellow to brighten your environment. Cheesy! I know but I am trusting you to be the excellent leader I know you are.

Talk to you soon

R.
