JOURNAL PROMP 012: What do You Believe are Your Biggest Anxiety Triggers?

Let’s face it - we don’t feel good about ourselves every single day. We always have these bad days when our anxieties weigh us down and we just couldn’t help but give in with the feeling.

As for me, my biggest anxiety trigger is whenever I see people of my age having the best time of their lives, pursuing the job they love and good at, excelling in life and achieving a lot already. I tend to compare myself only to end up feeling like a failure. I’d question my decisions in the past, my plans in the future and my present choices. “Am I doing the right thing? Am I on the right track? Why does it seem like life is so easy on them, and not with me?” and then all other sorts of destructive thoughts will come rushing in my head.

Some of those who are close to me will ask “How do you overcome that anxiety?” Honestly, I just let myself feel what I need to feel. I already know that there’s nothing I can do to stop the anxieties but to let it be. I can only embrace that ‘lost’ feeling and after that I’d be okay. I know I’d be okay, I just remind myself to always allow the bad days ‘cause there will always be an end to it.

No matter how bad my anxiety gets, I can only embrace it for a time but I won’t let it settle in. At the end of the day, we need to rise up from our fears and keep on trying.

2017 is almost over. A few hours ago I wrote a letter to the past year.... ... Your time is almost over, it's time I acknowledge you in all your grandeur: Hi, 2017. I’m happy to see you go. I aim to be frank in this letter in hoping you understand how you changed me, how you helped me, the decisions I made because of you, and the hold you had on my life. I'm sorry. Forever isn't for us. I’m moving on as I have with the years that came before you. 2018 arrives in 8 more hours. Let’s air it all out. You - you were brilliant as you served your time. You were devastating, distracting, depressing and honorable. When we first met I was kicking and screaming for mercy. Now out souls are bare before each other. I feel a bit empty. You’ve taken so much and you keep on, trying for those last drops of me. I’m tired, but I’m determined. It’s time to cut the rope, to let you go. One last hurrah, OK? .

Dearest Society Of Writers,

From my heart, I appreciate the opportunity to share some of my work, with your generous beautiful page and it’s followers…

Very Sincerely

Jeff Smith…

“For more poetry from the heart, and bleeding ink from the soul, please visit my pages, at the links you see below”. Thank you….

——– Angel Of Disgrace ——–

There upon a pedestal for one an angel sits in deep disgrace, Bleeding, and she’s frightened with eyes covered on her face,

There was a time she had it all before she tripped and she fell, Now up on a pedestal of greed now she’s alone within her hell,

She had it all, but wouldn’t see there’s more in life than greed, That’s why she blinks no more her eyes now gone cannot see,

Her tribulations now then over and now “her trials shall begin” About, a woman who had it all yet now in hell from greedy sin,

Was the daughter to a heiress didn’t work a day in all her life, Took all her life, no never gave never knew of lifes hard strife,

She never helped a single soul she’d only cared about herself, laughed at everyone below her while high upon a golden shelf,

But oh times how they change no more time upon her shelve, sentenced forever an example solo upon her pedestal of Hell,

No silver spoon just solid gold and her very father was a king, But she’s left, and now resides where gold, means not a thing,

Could’ve helped so many lives Now she’ll never save her own, chained to a pedestal of greed now she’s blind, and sits alone,

And her pedestal, it sits so low to best display her soul in vain, So opposite her lifes high shelf that she won’t ever know again,

She saw the world from her jet Tho now, wears two tiny wings, Shell leave the ground no more for it’s what, her greed it brings,

Wore the best of all the clothes knew only warmth, and its care, Yet now she sits but then alone forever naked so cold and bare,

And the very moral to her story is to then live, but give in grace, Before time to gives but ended forever,……“Angel Of Disgrace”

JOURNAL PROMPT 009: What are my Priorities at the Moment?

It’s been months since I last did a journal prompt and I badly needed to do this again and perhaps make it a consistent habit. Writing has been my saving grace over and over. With the end of 2020 coming close, my priorities has literally shifted from one thing to another. At the start of the year, I planned it in a way that is goal-oriented. But as soon as the pandemic hits, it has been a series of cancelled plans with multiple re-planning in between.

This crisis gave me a different kind of perspective and realization in life and one of it is the importance of financial freedom. That having a regular job and savings is not enough. I need to have more than one income stream to support my goals and sustain my family’s needs, that’s why my priorities at the moment are all focused on finding multiple income streams through side hustle/sideline, investing and building a portfolio to monetize my skills.

To be honest, I’m having a hard time. But at the end of the day, nothing really comes easy as one, two, three. I just keep telling myself that these hard work will payoff and I need to do this, not just for myself but for the family that relies on me. I wake up everyday inspired with the idea that my future self will thank me for working hard now and I don’t ever want to have regrets one day for not pushing myself to give out the best.

JOURNAL PROMPT 011: What are the Lessons I learned this Week?

1. Good things happen when you don’t postpone plans. I realized this just recently when I finally decided to have my braces, after contemplating for 3 years. It would take me 2 years before I can see the results I want, but as early as now I’ve felt more confident and happy about myself. And now I wish I had it done sooner.

2. Simple words or affirmation from relevant people makes wonders. I don’t usually feel motivated with my current job maybe because it’s something I don’t really feel confident doing but when I was commended and appreciated by my boss personally, I feel so moved and thought, “Oh, I’m finally doing something right" and the best part was that it’s indeed motivating to do even much better.

3. Christmas will never be the same without a complete family. This year’s Christmas felt a little less happier compared to last year because we’re not complete. My father is back abroad, my brother moved with his own family, my sister was on her work, and it was basically just three of us in the house during Christmas eve. I really wish next year would be a better year for my family.

4. Broken things shouldn’t be kept, dispose them immediately. This is kinda out of context but seriously, throw away things that already has cracks on it and is at the verge of breaking before it can harm you or the people around you. I just had a deep cut in my left middle finger because of a cracked glass of water. If only I had disposed it for good right away, I wouldn’t be crying for nights and take painkillers to manage the cut’s pain :(

5. A lot can change within a year. No matter how bad the situation is, it will get better eventually. Not in an instant, but definitely when we look back, we can see the changes and progress that happened in just a span of a year and realized how blessed we still are to be in a better situation now, compared to the previous year.

JOURNAL PROMPT 004: What is Going Right in my Life?

Writing is that one thing I am most comfortable doing. Not because I think my grammar, content, or paragraph construction are great, cause they’re not. But because writing has been my safe ground - a ‘security blanket’, my escape from reality.

For the last two years, all my deep thoughts, pain and frustrations were transcribed into a journal which I’ve only kept with myself and have never shared with anyone. Cause during those times, I was very hesitant to share my writings online for I lack the confidence and I was overthinking a lot. That maybe everything I write just doesn’t make sense. That maybe people who’d read them will just get annoyed. And all other sorts of negative perception blocked me from sharing anything online. Gladly, being in a quarantine for some months gave me time to revamp myself and put things into a lighter perspective. I’ve read a lot of books, articles, watched vlogs and pep talks about self improvement. One quote that says “Fear what you fear, and do it anyway” hits me to the core and there, I realized I want to go back into writing but not just to keep it to myself but to write with the purpose of pushing myself even more, rebuild the confidence I used to have and regain the freedom to communicate that I’ve been depriving myself for years. I want to simply share and reflect on life in the hope as well that maybe someone out there might need the same message. And this journey of redeeming myself is what’s going right in my life right now, for it makes me feel alive more than ever. Seeing my thoughts conveyed in a platform and shared in a writing community no longer makes me insecure. Instead, writing has put me back on track. Like this is where I truly and will always belong.

So if you are like me, currently doubtful about jumping into something that you’ve been wanting to pursue, just do it :) Give it a try and see where it’ll take you on. Take it one day at a time.

JOURNAL PROMPT 005: What Am I Grateful for?

With what’s happening around the world, it’s easy for us to conclude that life sucks. As for me, each passing day has been a battle of keeping myself sane and steady. With all the bills and responsibilities piling up, pressure to be productive everyday, and to keep up with life in general are just some of the challenges I face in this far-from-over journey of home quarantine. But even a little change in perspective really goes a long way. I decided to jot down the things I am grateful for despite the pandemic, for I find it therapeutic and mentally curative.

1. To be able to work at the safety of our Home during a virus outbreak. - Some of the people I personally know were greatly affected by this crisis as they completely lost their job. This made me realize how grateful I should be to still have my job while working from home and to still be able to provide for the needs of my family.

2. Complete family - there’s no such thing as a perfect family but to be with them during these trying times is something I am truly thankful for.

3. Time - this is probably the most taken for granted thing before Covid happen but it’s also the best thing that happened to me in the last three months. Having plenty of time nowadays enabled me to do the personal projects I’ve been postponing in the past. A silver lining indeed!

4. Few good friends whom I get to catch up with every once a in a while. Aren’t they heaven sent? These are the people whom I could rely on when everything else failed. 5. Kids at Home are the best. Having kids like my niece and nephews around the house is such a stress reliever. I always get amazed at how their innocence can easily put a smile in my face and fade the stress away in an instant! 6. Writing communities - another thing I’m thankful for are the writing communities where I get to be myself freely. No pretending, no judgments just the perfect outlet when my thoughts and emotions are at the verge of exploding. And I really find it wonderful to find souls which shares similar feelings as I have. Thanks Tumblr! <3 7. Coffee - No other words. Just coffee. 8. Free Online Classes - aren’t we so lucky to get free access to loads of online classes nowadays? They say life is a continuous learning process and I couldn’t agree more. There’s so much more to learn through various resources aside from experience alone, and free online classes are game changers. 9. Wisdom shared by many experienced people around the world. I often get moved and inspired when I read successful stories of some humble public figures. I find them simply transformative! 10. Faith. If it isn’t by Faith, I would’ve gone too far away from sanity. I’ve had many experiences in the past where I almost lost it that’s why I’ll forever be grateful for having my faith with me wherever life has taken me so far. Life’s not perfect, but my faith in the Lord is eternal. I could go on and on, list the things I’m grateful for but I’ll be sharing ten of it first. I made this prompt for I simply want to share that we often look at the things we lack which makes us feeling down all the time. And during this pandemic, our sanity should be one of our top priority. So let’s make it a habit to look at the small things which brings joy in our life. May we learn to appreciate and love the things that we have instead of grieving for the things we don’t posses.

JOURNAL PROMPT 007: Small Victories and Successes

Recently I’ve read that one way to self discovery is by identifying the small achievements we make for it will show which areas we excel, and when we recognize that even small victories are still victories, we’ll develop self awareness and eagerness to do more. And then I reminded myself today that the journal prompts I’ve been writing lately are all intended for self- discovery. So here goes the list of my little achievements over the past few months. 1. Pushed myself to finish a 30-day workout challenge. Changes aren’t really that visible though but I’m proud of myself for having done such exhausting routine. And for trying to finish another round of 30 days. Yay! 2. Made Instagram account for my Poetries. Yes! I’ve been wanting to do this a long time ago but I just didn’t have the time and guts to start this ‘Passion Project’. I’ve made this account together with my friend who also loves to write and we’ve been managing it for three months now. 3.Started writing again. Writing will always be my go to hobby and with the plenty of time this quarantine gives me, I want to make sure that it won’t go to waste so I’ve revamped myself into writing! 4. Studying Investments. I’m still in the process though. Currently I’m eyeing for 2 different kind of investments and I created schedules to study on those every week. It’s pretty hard to study investments knowing that my hard earned money is at risk but I guess I’ll just have to give it a try. And I know this is one thing I won’t ever regret doing. 5. Doing Online Classes. I discovered Skillshare last April and since it’s very affordable, I decided to indulge myself in to courses that sparks my interest including courses about writing and instagram poetry. After all, I missed studying right at the moment I landed a job. Though these little ‘achievements’ are still a work on progress, it makes me proud of myself now - for pushing to be better and productive each day. Looking back, before being on a quarantine, I used to have this routine of being like a robot by working for weekdays, go home sleep early and plans to be productive on weekends only to end up sleeping and binge watching. I felt literally like a robot back then. Earn, sleep, earn. That’s it. I lost sight of the things I love to do and been wanting to pursue. I guess this pandemic still has its perks. And though this is definitely not gonna last forever, it’s up to us how to make the most out of the resources and situation we have. We don’t have to be too hard on ourselves, let’s learn to celebrate even the smallest of the achievements we make. One step at a time.

JOURNAL PROMPT 002: What do I need more of in my Life?

I wasn’t born privileged - definitely not someone who’s born with a silver spoon in her mouth. I was born with limited resources, capacities and short advantages. I grew up with the need to constantly work hard to get good grades, scholarships, a college degree and to land a pretty decent job.

And so I did. I do an 8 hour workday for 5 days in a week; you know, the usual employee. Other than that, I have a complete family, few good friends, a decent home, few connections and I am now able to provide for myself and my family. I could say that although these things aren’t really that much, my situation is a lot better now compared to when I was still a mere kid who’s needs are solely dependent on parents.

But despite having these, I still ask myself, what do I really need more of in my life right now? Is it a new gadget? New job? Another source of income, investment, new belongings, or new beginnings? I haven’t known the answer for quite some time, but after reading some books, articles, verses, and blogs all emphasizing self improvement and self discovery, I figured it out. What I truly need of right now is a clear purpose; a purpose in life.

On my first journal prompt, I shared how I’ve battled for years to stay on track when the world tells you to do what everyone else is doing. But I’m already sick of that. I want to find my own purpose. The reason for my being. Because in the kind of place we live in, it’s easy to get astray from the right path and I almost fell into that trap, but I never want it to ever happen again.

So what I really need more of right now is to find my purpose. To find the thing that would make me want to keep going. A purpose that would fill in the emptiness - something that’d make me complete and make life worth living. To find that ‘thing’ that will keep the fire burning. And yet I know, I still got a long way to go before I find it.

But I guess that's okay! Life’s not a race after all. We will all find it. Maybe not today, but definitely one of these days :) For now, let’s make the most of what we have, where we at, and what we can do. All will be well in His perfect timing.
