Tuesday Trickles – My Thinking Corner
Every Tuesday, I share snippets of thoughts that I call ‘My Thinking Corner.’
I would like to invite you to participate. The challenge is quite simple. You can check this link for more details.
- Keep reminding yourself that you’ve got unlimited potential.
- Rejoice in your unlimitedness and know that within and before you lies infinite possibilities in every area.
Our minds are completely connected and serve as a guide to how we shape and reshape our lives and even our bodies to further achieve greater potentials. You can either spend your time griping and begrudging everything that’s not going as it should or you could spend your time expanding your thoughts, thinking about worthwhile experiences.
Loving yourself, living in the moment and dwelling on happy thoughts is the quickest route you can take to create or recreate a wonderful life for yourself.
Bisi shares snippets on how you can keep growing even with your wins and Oba’s wise thoughts on intentional living is worth keeping in mind.

Note that there’s a difference between being centered on self and being self-centered.
In all our busy-ness, we sometimes let ourselves fall by the wayside, trying to please a, b, c to z in our lives as well as meet up with so many expected goals.
It’s absolutely important that you take care of your physical, emotional and mental well-being which will equally ensure a balanced, happier person.
When you are ragged and run into the ground, your optimum ability to achieve may not only drop, but you become miserable and possibly grouchy towards others.
As you extend kindness to others, be kind to yourself as well.
Be kind to your body. Keep active.
Cut down the meaningless and mindless entertainment and use that as a me-time to rebalance.
There are many little ways that we can take care of ourselves. In another post, I’ll share my own personal weekly routine.
It’s not perfect and a continuous work-in-progress but it’s been useful and anyone can tweak theirs according to their individual circumstances.
The important thing is to recognise that there’s constant need to take out moments in time to rebalance.
P.S. You are invited to our monthly blog party this weekend. It’s fun and you get to meet fantastic folks
Below is my first just published Poetry Book “Out of the silent breath” which is available on Amazon and Smashwords.
When you buy my book, you support me in an invaluable manner.
A deep sense of satisfaction
of peace, I sense within
as the Sun peeks to say hello
I am happy to embrace me.
Tuesdays Trickles…My thinking corner #19
Every Tuesday, I share snippets of thoughts that I call ‘My Thinking Corner.’
I would like to invite you to participate. The challenge is quite simple.
Each Tuesday, share your very short snippets of positive, inspiring, motivating, health, spiritual, writing advice, clips, posts etc, that can serve as a prop to motivate others and simply add my link to your post.
I call it my thinking corner because, I actually take out a bit of time just to think through things, encapsulate my thoughts as much as possible and detoxify my mind. It helps give me clarity of vision and might help you too.
It might work for you in a different way, but the idea is to get the positive thoughts flowing.
Please send in your little thoughts. You never know whose life you might inspire.

♦ Sometimes, we have to cover our physical sight to see the silver linings in the dark clouds that hover.
♦ When the external heat of life gets too hot, you must keep working at your internal cooling system.
♦ Going with the ordinary flow may sound easy, but sometimes you are washed to the wrong direction. So while flowing, take a paddle with you to steer your course.
♦ Each day, you must remind yourself of what you actually want out of life and keep that vision before your eyes as you take another tiny step in that direction.
♦ Have you been stretching your vision lately? Why not? Don’t settle for laxity.
This week’s thoughts have been sent in by:
Kings oracle This short and sweet post from Oba couldn’t have said it better 🙂
Dollops of heedful rambling This is such a beautiful quote *my first time of reading it* and its truth leaves you mindful.
A purpose-driven achiever Lady Cee joins us with her sage words brings it home to me.
I really enjoy these conscious musings, because sometimes life is just so frenetic that it simply races along with us. These thoughts keep me grounded and help me more than words can say.
My regards,
Jacqueline
P.S I still haven’t been getting some pingbacks, so please if you post a thinking corner post, you might have to visit my page and leave a comment. Thank you.
