A few things to reflect on
One thing to ask yourself
Who is my biggest influence? What we claim to be who we are is an accumulation of influences and experiences. Those can be in things, people, places or whatever it is that we expose ourselves to. But I have found that our strongest influences are usually people; those who raised us, those we meet along the way, and those we are privileged to birth. So, which one of those is your biggest influence?
My strongest influence is my family. That include those who I consciously chose as my family. I find that their deposit in my life shows up even when I least expect it. As a matter of fact, I remember people now when I do something or say something that I learnt from them. It’s amazing. I feel fortunate to have such good people in my life.
It’s your turn now. Who is it/Who are they? I am listening/reading…
Something to try this weekend
Maybe two things….
Now that you have identified who that strong influence is, why not send them a message or put a call through to them? Appreciate them for being such a big part of your life.
Also, can I ask a favour of you? Please join me to celebrate my partner and friend, the co-founder of Umi, Tolulope, as she celebrates her birthday on Sunday, February 11, 2024. This one is a milestone, she is super amazing, she is so intelligent and one of the best people I know. Just shoot her a happy birthday message at tolulope@umiformothers.com. Thank you so much.
We love you. Enjoy your weekend.
