Travel to South Africa with Jewel
SO EXCITED AND HONORED…it’s been confirmed I will be speaking South Africa. The month of August is “Women’s Month” in South Africa. I will be going to speak for women’s empowerment issues and serve (e.g. churches, women’s shelters, schools) in three major cities including Capetown and Johannesburg in August 2017. I’m praising God right now for this tremendous answer to a prayer…to have a global impact with the voice God gave me for women everywhere! My sisterfriend Melannie Cunningham has traveled to South Africa 18 years and will be our tour host Click this link to see the itinerary
Great Tips from a Recovering Procrastinator
I am Jewel Diamond Taylor. I am a recovering procrastinator.
Sadly, I admit I have lost money, time, opportunities, sleep and peace of mind from the terrible habit of avoiding important tasks. I am not totally recovered. However, gladly, I have seen so much progress and gained some self-respect, effectiveness, progress and peace of mind because of these following practices I put into place to break old habits.
To increase my daily success of achieving my tasks. I have to psyche myself out because I know the words, habits and thoughts in my head that block and sabotage my progress which causes me to avoid tasks and eventually pay the consequences. So instead of having a “to do” list…I have a “things to finish” list. When I hear “to do” it sounds to wide open and vague. “Things to finish” is my kick in the behind to not only do something…but finish my task. I have learned that my self-talk changes how I do things. Since I read my emails daily…all day…I send myself an email with the subject line “To finish“.
