How to become a morning person .

Hey lovelies,

How’s y’all doing? This week at been kinda lazy but am finally back with some amazing content. I used to wake up really late and I hated morning routine but until I was able to find my morning motivation it has never been the same again. For today’s post I will be sharing what I do in the morning to make sure I wake up early enough and get every work done on time.

  • Get your motivation

Find out the one thing that can make you wake up in the morning for me it’s my morning playlist, Kiss 100 breakfast show and my sticky note goals just above my bed.

  • If your all about fashion try pairing some super cool pieces the night before. This idea at times seems way off but knowing that you look good in a certain dress or jeans may just be what you need to wake up, bath and dress up.
  • Have an agenda for the day.

Knowing that you have some incomplete business helps you to work harder to just get out of that bed and try to finish it up.

  • Play a motivational podcast in the morning.

Listening to some motivational speech will wake you and make you go hustle / school . The thing with motivational podcast is that they act as an eye opener and thus drive us to become better humans.

  • Make prayer your first item.

Just saying simple prayer like thank you God for today may just help you wake up and try fulfilling your purpose in life.

Hope my simple tips really helped you and thanks alot for checking out my blog post today. Your beautiful /handsome ,unique and I appreciate you.

Have a good day ahead,

Lots of love,

How to deal with criticisim

Hey lovelies, It’s Tuesday and that means we got a new blog post, hope your having a great day and thanks for viewing my post 😊.Some people are super good at seeing the negative side and quick to judge but some judge positively so here a guide on how to deal Today I will be sharing how to deal with criticism since we all hate being criticised. I learnt this few tips from a meeting I always attend every Tuesday and it has impacted my life .

  • Diffrenciate destructive and constructive criticism. Know who is trying to build up and who is trying to pull you down.
  • Accept that your not perfect thus you will be able to take a little bit of feed back from people.
  • Don’t take it personally, if you take stuff personally you won’t be able to deal with it well you’ll just hold unnecessary grudges.
  • Don’t make excuses when people criticise you just accept if your wrong. – Work on being less sensitive and more strong, develop a thick skin and learn how to develop what you can change.

Thanks for passing by my blog today your amazing, beautiful /handsome and I appreciate you a lot. 💕💕.

HEAL THY SELF Wednesday : how to unwind after a stressful day

Hey lovelies,

Stress is a condition of tension and strain to your mental health due to a bad day. Stress causes one to experience a whole lot of bad disease that reduce your life span, when am stressed I at times get stress eating disorders which is not a good thing I once wrote about how to stop that behaviour here https://wp.me/p6TMMY-dd . So over the years as I grow older and face more stress I have decided to come up with mechanism on how to deal with my stress in a healthy positive way :

  • Hot showers and sleep

This helps alot and drives your mind away from the stress. Hot showers also help you feel more rejuvenated and thus give you time to try and solve problems in a fresh way. Take a nap to be able and give your body a break from all that is stressing you.

  • Hot cocoa drink

I love hot cocoa and hot chocolate no matter how much heat there is this are my go to drinks when am super stressed.

  • Listening to music

Am generally a lover of hip-hop and R n B but when am stressed I open up the country music folder on my laptop and sing along to those soothing songs. Find music that calms your soul for me it’s country music.

  • Yoga

When one is stressed most likely you also get anxiety attacks , Yoga helps one clear their mind since it needs a whole lot of concentration and thus it occupies your mind. Hope my few steps help you also share your ways to deal with stress on the comment section below.

Have a lovely day ahead.

Be inspired : by swimwear and beach outfits designer Joan.

Hey lovelies,

It’s the season when we get to wear the most amazing clothes in our wardrobes and packup for the vacation. In Kenya most people love the coast and the beach it’s like everyone’s vacation spot the one thing that stands out this vacation is an amazing swimwear. Recently got to interview the most talented Joan of Joheartyarns and got to know some details about her work and her amazing talent that turns yarn to amazing if not awesome swimwear I have ever seen.

White pineapple top

When did you start designing swimwear and beach clothes?

I started crocheting as a hobby in 2015, more as a pass time activity after my classes, I would design all sort of stuff, from baby clothes, bags, shoes. But then I realized I loved working on swimwear most, hence the focus on swimwear now .

Tassel white bikini

What are your 3 must haves in your work space ?

My crochet hooks, tape measure and a needle. Damn I can’t do without these 3. Essentials!!

 Red bikini

Most people love yarn products any advice on how to take care of yarn swimwear and beach outfits?

Yarn is very sensitive and should be handled with care, it should be washed gently with cool water and air to dry. It should not be ironed or washed with hot water as it tends to loosen up .

Blue crop top

Your greatest breakthroughs in your work life journey ?

Hmm, I treat every moment of my little achievements as breakthrough, just step by step. But I have not had my greatest breakthrough yet .

Challenges in the swimwear designing industry ?

Some clients gives you wrong measurements then you end up making a wrong size hence repeat of work, it’s also labor intensive and needs a lot of dedication.

Pink bikini

Advice to upcoming swimwear designers ?

Understand your client needs, do a quality job , market yourself and people will always look for you. Push harder and have an end game plan, it will always remind you of what you want to achieve, remember success require some internal toughness. Be passionate about your work, it will always keep you going when things are not working out
