When life gives you lemons, make a lemonade.

Sometimes, the lemonade may not in particular be "lemonading."

You may be wondering, "what is she talking about?"

Calm down my friend and walk with me.

So, if you follow my newsletters, you would notice that I didn't send out any last week.

I kinda forgot about it.

Well, not technically actually. It just happened.

I had a lot on my mind.

I had a wedding to attend last weekend and things were looking pretty rough.

I was so carried away by the challenges, so much that I couldn't bring myself to write anything.

Yeah, I know!

It's funny. But it's the truth. When I started out this newsletter, I didn't plan to write any of the content I'm writing now.

However, it just happened.

My newsletters is set to go out biweekly.

Since the idea came, I decided to put out a newsletter every week.

Which reminds of the fact that in as much as we need each other, we need God more.

I didn't want to talk about that with a distracted mind.

Believe me, I tried. However, it felt like I was going to lie you.

I will never create or talk about a concept that I don't believe in.

So, when I remembered the next morning that I didn't send out a newsletter, I told myself I was going to do it that evening but I grew fatigued—my mind still foggy.

Then I said Thursday and Thursday came and I said Friday and Friday came and I said next week — same time.

Truth be told, no one said it was going to be easy. I knew that.

I have had it rough since the beginning of the year.

Pretty rough I must tell you. But I signed up for this.

I didn't realize this until I read Dakota's email where he talked about how he didn't have the desire to write sometime last week.

Yet, he sent out a newsletter that day.

He had all the reasons to go get some soda, watch Netflix or just play some video games if he was bored or something.

Instead, he chose to still write to his email list.

Why?

Because it's what he signed up for..

Consistency is a crazy thing.

And if it were a person, bet I am gonna punch it on its face. ??

Then again, there's discipline.

The will to forge ahead even though you may not feel like it sometimes.

Why am I sharing this with you?

●???? Well, for starters, you are going to get disappointed and overwhelm sometimes.

●???? Some of your expectations will not be met, especially most times you truly want them to.??

● You can't run purpose on default. It has to come from a place of intentionality.

● Not everything will make sense even at the middle. things just become clearer as you work.

I just felt you should know this, doing what you can makes a difference even though you may not see it.

In times like this, you may need to keep your head straight.

As much as you love what you do, you need the discipline to be consistent at it.

The holy Spirit will comfort you.

It is in your power to take the comfort and move ahead.

It takes two to tango, you know.

If you must achieve your desired result, it takes you and your will. The Holy Spirit will amplify what you have already.

If you are reading this, and there's something you should be doing but you left it half way, go pick it up.

My list may not be over a thousand yet but my content resonate with one person.

That makes me happy.

I did feel bad when I didn't send any letter last Tuesday.

Do what you can, while you can because the lemonade may not be lemonading sometimes.

I hope this helps.

Between, I just felt like sharing a rant today.

You know, to calm some nerves. We can't always be serious all the time.

So if this makes you raise a brown, well keep it hanging. ?? Just kidding, lol.

P.S. Watch out for my next letter next week at the same time. I promise, it will blow your mind. I mean bless you.

PPS. Drop a comment and share with someone today. Because sharing is caring ??
