Just like that, without having to pay or work for it, we stepped into the second half of the year! What did we ever do to have this kind of love showered on us, the kind of love that preserves the breath in our nostrils and gives us a chance to see days rolling into weeks, into months, and then into years? I bet you’ll agree with me saying we have a good Father, don’t we?
With that, dear TMAR tribe member, I gladly welcome you to the second half of 2025, specifically into JULY. I am grateful we get to step into this better half together, and I’m even more excited about what it holds for us in our endeavours. You’re about to have a ride that will take you to your desired destination, congratulations on the beautiful things coming your way!
How can I ever forget to appreciate you for being the best support system this blog space could ever ask for? Oh yes, I am sincerely grateful to have you in my corner! Your commitment to sharing every flyer and link, liking, reposting, and giving feedback in the past six months has been nothing short of amazing. Thank you for having the kindest words and acts every time!
I know you probably already have answered this question in a journal or some other platform, but I’d love to read your thoughts here too; How has 2025 been so far? It sounds like a simple question, yeah? But I’m sure that question can generate several pages of written answers because there’s definitely a lot to say; talking about the good and even the not-so-pleasant sides.
However, through it all, you have been a winner, tackling each situation one step at a time and being even stronger for it. Hmmm, I heard that whisper! Did you just say you haven’t even figured it out yet? Smiles, God and I still call you a winner, because it is certain you are going to come out with the trophy. So, dear royalty, will you kindly step forward for your crown?
As I mentioned earlier, you might have scripted different answers, some even pointing to what did not go so well in the last six months and you are already considering just giving up on it or letting it go. This is that post coming to you as an encouragement, telling you that there is ANOTHER CHANCE, and a better one at that, for your growth and realization of that potential that might have failed earlier in the year.
Speaking about chances and opportunities, it is always important that we use the first wisely because it would determine a lot of outcomes and relationships. It goes without saying that first chances have a lot of effect. Likewise, you can get things right once and for all in your journey. You don’t have to make a mistake first before finding your way.
However, I also believe that second chances happen if you open up yourself to the possibility of it happening, and your mistakes can still be corrected. The initial error does not have to define you or set the pace for your life, you can rise from it and make a difference in your world.
This coming couple of months do not have to turn out the way the previous ones did. The cycle, especially if it is negative, does not have to repeat itself. If things were bad, there could be a positive change sitting right at the corner and waiting for you to see it and charge towards it.
And if everything went smoothly just the way you figured it would, oh how I love it for you! Well, the more exciting news is that you can have a great year till the end. Now, here’s the question; are you willing to take the chance that seeing a new day has presented to you?
Yayyy, I love the energy with which you said that ‘Yes’! Now, let’s talk about how to navigate your new chance and make sure things fall in place this time, just the way you hoped they would.
First, even if the past experience wasn’t all that great, see it as an opportunity to learn. See it as an eye-opener, something that happened to expose the flaws or imperfections that had been lying fallow somewhere within you, something that came to be so you could do the inner or heart work required first to give you a remarkable outer performance.
Now, take note of this; those flaws did not come to light for you to start seeing yourself as less, or for you to feel weak, helpless, or inadequate. Rather, you should see them from the lens of a challenge that can be overcome. To make your response even more beautiful, be grateful it is not the end of your journey, because there is a solution for you to tap into.
It is important that you carry out a thorough personal evaluation and run the checks. What went wrong the first time you tried? Doing this requires a lot of honesty to yourself and admitting where there was a ‘mess-up’, to put it in local parlance.
This is really needed because sometimes, we tend to desire a change without wanting to address what the real issue is. However, facing this truth analysis shows that you are indeed ready for the change to come.
Moving forward, you need to define in more clear times what you want to achieve. This has to be re-checked because what you want for an outcome, or even the motive for doing it might have changed, probably due to growth or the renewal of your mind.
Also, defining the outcome you want to see might set a new course for the approach you take. As you evaluate, you are clear on what to do differently. Therefore, weigh your motives, and let your actions be guided in the right direction.
Sometimes, we begin something good with a nice energy, all pumped and ready to make it work. And then, when one or two pauses happen along the way, we cast the task aside altogether. Give that vision another chance to see the light of day in its fullness and accomplished form, go back to the book, and keep writing till the pages are done.
To wrap up, I will mention your need for people you can be accountable to. These people can even help in some aspects of your evaluation before you take the bold step again. Ask them about what you can improve on and allow them to voice out their honest opinions.
When they do, don’t be so quick to be defensive or take offence. Some of the things they’ll say might not exactly be just about the validation you are looking for, but the truth is that you need to hear that honest constructive criticism as well. Know that what they say is coming from a place of love and a genuine desire to see you evolve for the better, and when you see how things turn out eventually, you will be grateful you had good company.
Here, this is me signing out for the first post in the second half of the year. I hope this was worth your time and scrolls☺️.
