Motivation And Faith
This is not based on professional research but on my experience:
Two things I previously thought were the enemy : 1) my thoughts in the morning as a wake up and 2) my thoughts in the night before I rest my body, mind and soul. I’m constantly thinking and over thinking and sometimes that can be the breaking of someone especially if done in a negatively critical way. This led me to depression and a down wards spiral of unhappiness. Hence my belief that consistent motivation and reminder of faith go hand in hand.
We control our mind process and output but we have less control of the INPUT. Input can be negative from Peers, family, Friends, environment, media as a whole but its up to YOU to balance the negativity with positivity. Reading, gain knowledge, understanding, faith, hard work are all positive inputs in ones life. Now for the important part: PROCESS, you now filter the bullshit that will bring you down and the knowledge that will uplift you. How your mind processes it’s input determines the output.
Example:
World tells me that because I’m a black Muslim female that I’m at a default. I believed this for years Because this was the input and my process was “you cannot amount to any thing in this world” causing my output to be depression.
Now: My Input is self education on my past (Black History, aswell as personal events in my life) Self Love, media, Quran, Love etc… I take the positive process it in to belief that I can do this!!
Everyone has off days and your entitled to them just get back up the next day. Using tactic is the key to opening or motivation. If you work better at night plan and execute at night, your happiness during the afternoon work the most then.
We make choices that cage us in a prison of unhappiness. Happiness is different to everyone but your purist of it should be the reason you wake up in the morning. Ever wondered why sometimes you will bursting with energy, commitment and belief one day and the other you can’t even get out of bed? It’s because In order to be that amazing person within you, you must motivate your self every day like a charge. Smart phones are amazing but one thing we all complain about is there battery life. its only consistently amazing because we charge it daily in order to rep the full benefits. So start your days charging your iman (faith) and remembering your motivation to see your productivity improve. We all started from some where and we are all trying to get some where.
Self Love, Faith In God, Hard work, Perseverance, A lot of Cookie dough Ice cream, Pizza and Chocolate is what gets me through the storm. Make sure today gets you closer to being a better you than yesterday.
Ameerah xoxo

Pain is pain be it physical or mental we all have demons causing us to hurt but we have to over come it as a force, over come it as people of the world. Pain is also temporary when it has gone fill it with believe and love x

Something that i don’t do. It was said that tumblr has lost it’s credibility as a place for real bloggers. I mean in truth the dashboard is sometimes just full of pictures. Gifs. A few random personal posts and what else?
The good thing about Tumblr is that compared to most blog sites, it is…

We’re at that point where I like you and I think you like me.
This is where it gets tricky, don’t make any promises you can’t keep.
I’m not sure what this is, and I don’t care to find out.
You probably have a girl back home, lights out.
Shirt, pants, shoes, socks on.
I don’t expect a ring for a summers fling.
Lights Off
