As an advocate of mental wellness & a life coach, I have viewed the Covid19 crisis as an opportunity to share wisdom and spread positivity to others. The situation has inspired me to come up with my fifteen words to live by – During and After a Crisis. From a pandemic to a mission, I was set to encourage others to accept and see the silver lining in the moment of quarantine.
I have entitled my collection of inspiring words as; “The Acronyms of my Life – Shining for God, to be a Light for others.” I recently shared these inspiring words to LIVE by in my official FB page (FB Live) last May 1-15. It was my goal to help prepare Filipinos with the new normal – to help as many as I could to cope with confusion, anxiety, and depression during the crisis.
The first series deals about the crisis, looking at it as a Mission to be able to inspire and encourage others, keeping their sanity and helping them to be calm, and understand the real meaning of success in our lives today.
The second series is the Growing and Learning stage. Adapting to the changes, accepting the hurts and pain, managing stress to rest with a joyful heart.
The third series is on the Transformation stage, where you are already able to adjust and accept the new normal with discipline, wisdom and strength.
And the final series of acronyms, Words to Live by during and after crisis are the words to nourish our souls, being spiritually healthy in having Christ in Crisis. Sustaining it with a hopeful heart, keeping the faith and a daily prayer.
May these words inspire everyone to smile during and after a crisis to be able to successfully thrive each day.
