Trust

We have to trust ourselves fully knowing that we can’t judge people using our value system as a determining factor. People are multifaceted, even those within our family. Get to know the people you associate with. Observe their behaviour. Are they prolific liars? Do they have sticky fingers? Do they break their promises? Remember trust […]

Fear

Fear casts a shadow while truth exudes veracity. How we behave under stress opens an aperture to our character: Are we showcasing asininity or deleteriousness? Self judgement is critical at all times. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2025

Trust Worthy

Trust is consequential. People can be multifaceted. They say one thing but mean another. It’s always about how their behaviour benefits them. We have to be guarded at all times, we cannot allow persuasion to be our downfall. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2025

Deceit

Deceit is a way of life for some people. Pretence is one of the tools they use in order to solicit the trust of others. Their behaviour is repetitive. Don’t be drawn into their web of lies. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2024

Ethics

Non ethical behaviour is the fuel that feeds chaos in our lives and the world at large. We can change the choices we make. The question is: do we want to, or are we morally inept? © Norma Bobb-Semple 2024

Contentment

Contentment is our state of being. Grasping for visibility is a learned behaviour. Why grasp for straws, we are the creative force. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2024

Interactions

Interactions in life aren’t like elasticity, we cannot allow ourselves to be pulled hither and thither. In everything we do we have to create the standards we will adhere to and the behaviours we will accept or reject from others towards us. If we don’t hold ourself to a high standard we will become the […]

Behaviour

We have to form a cohesive body for the benefit of this earth. We are here to preserve, not destroy. We believe that we are owners of all species on this earth, and yet we can’t control the elements. That should cast a light on our impotence. Some of us behave like simpletons. Now is […]

Control

The only life we are in control of is our own. No one is our serf. We need to be accountable to ourselves. We should treat people the same way we want to be treated. What goes around comes around. Immaturity leads to aggressive behaviour. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2022

Compulsion

Many of us suffer from compulsive behaviour whether it be stealing, lying or cheating. To steer clear of these shenanigans we have got to build boundaries. People don’t change because they are implored to do so. They change because of the advantages that change creates for them. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2022
