Our Business

Some of us are consumed by the life of our peers, family or those we consider (the other). We want to know how come they are succeeding and we aren’t. It’s because our measure of success does not apply to them. They are about their own business and what you do or do not do […]

Paths

We take separate paths because our journeys are not the same. We cannot measure our success against the success of another person or harbour jealousy because we think it’s all a show to make us look bad. Concentrating on our own spiritual evolution is the key to empowerment. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2022

Rights

Our success is not dependent on the exploitation of our fellow human or sentient beings. If we are naive enough to think that we have the inalienable right to transgress on the rights of others we are despotic. Be the judge. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2022

Morality

If we believe that in order to succeed we have to bend the rules, what does this say about our moral compass? Our humanity is always on display through the choices we make. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2022

The Chase

We chase after careers, money, women, men and expensive toys but we refrain from acknowledging that in our drive for success we lose ourselves by exchanging integrity for vanity. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2021

Jealous

If I were to exhibit jealousy over my family members or neighbours financial status, their fashion choices, cars and homes I would be depriving myself of giving attention to my own needs. Success is a matter of personal choice, it isn’t theoretical. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2021

It’s on Us

Don’t be waiting around for someone else to chart your course. Your success or failure depends on how invested you are in yourself. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2021

The Vision is Ours

We are the ones who are responsible for our own success or failure regardless of the road blocks that are strewn in our path. It is paramount that we avoid people whose aim it is to use us for their own machinations. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2021

Limitations

Limitations can be a springboard or an impediment to our success. Our response to the turmoil that occurs in the midst of our living our lives is what distinguishes success from failure. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2021
