Whether you feel like it or not
Hello my dear elegant women , I hope everything is great with you all.
Today I want to share with you a very strong message . On Wednesday, I've attended my Youth group meeting , which is called " Real Talk " . This meeting has been helping me in so many ways until today . Every time I attend I learn something new . The Real Talk meeting is such a blessing. (If any of you are interested email me for further information .) Anyways, let me go straight to the point . What I want to share with you is a topic that many people know but unfortunately they hardly practice in their everyday life .
"Whether you feel like it or not !" (is the quote)
Many women have the feeling of staying in bed and not getting up to clean their houses ,to look after their selves etc, but there are those whom know that if they don't clean their house it will be a mess which is not a nice thing, therefore they get up and clean until everything is tidy and organised , whether they feel like doing it or not they know that they must do it.
Many people don't feel like studying for their exams for a better education, many don't feel like making an effort for their job or taking a risk for their business. That's when you see ,who truly is a fighter,overcomer , true conqueror ... A lot of people lack success in their business, lose jobs, get bad grades,waste opportunities have bad reputation, have a bad marriage, and the list goes on .
But those who act upon their intelligence they go over their own desires and make a sacrifice , they believe that the effort that they are making today will be worth it tomorrow, so they take risks, they take challenges and they are ready to face whatever it comes. They are not the type of people who wait to be "touched ", or to see their failure first in order to succeed, or to see others moving on with their lives in order to also move on.
THEY JUST DO IT . WHETHER THEY FEEL LIKE IT OR NOT , THEY DO IT BECAUSE THEY KNOW HOW TO USE THEIR INTELLIGENCE . THEY OVERCOME THEIR OWN DESIRES TO ACHIEVE THEIR GOALS!
So , my dear friends which type of people are you? Those how act according to their feelings and live constantly complaining, lazy, dis-motivated ? Or Are you like those who overcome their own desires and act according to their intelligence. Those whom use their minds and not their heart! Even though they don't feel like it , they still do it without thinking twice,they discipline theirselves to be the best . Those who are willing to wait for the right husband/wife in order to be happy married even if they don't feel it ?
Ask yourselves, be honest because you are only deceiving yourself.
If you are those who complain , you have recognized that you have been acting according to your feelings but you want to change the way you act?! Then , start by making sacrifices, it's hard but the honor will be bigger. So, from today start to act according to your intelligence, think before you act and you will see great results. ( Don't forget to let me know ^^ )
Here is a video which will also inspire you to keep
going.Take a look:
This message were very strong and powerful to me , and I am doing my part already ! What about you ? Are you still going to act according to your feelings?Are you still going to live by what you feel?
I hope this message were very helpful to you all.
Love and kisses,

Pleasing Others?
Hello dear friends.How are you all? Hope everything is good .
Well, today throughout the day ,I've noticed that , the majority of young girls, teenagers,young adults and seniors have a complex about theirselves.
It's uncontrollable ,I spoke with a couple of teenagers , and they were telling me that , they do everything to please others. For example , if someone tells them that they are ugly or they disliked their jacket , instead of telling them a couple of facts, they prefer to exchange it the day after . In order to avoid any comments from others.This shows that the individual is very insecure, and cares too much in what people are going to say or do . Being like that , you are destroying your self concept. your self image and self esteem , which is not good at all.
When you don't have confidence , you don't "stand out" ...Yes ! Imagine, if YOU don't love yourself first , and you are always ,depressed , complaining .Who is going to like to be around you ?? It's very hard being around someone who is negative . Someone that you always have to make a comment to make them happy .. Indeed , it's annoying ! YOU have to love yourself first , in order to love others after.
When you dislike your self image , you either tend to isolate yourself from others or do everything to please others. Trying to please men is when the media gets involved. You see the "pretty" , "sexy" celebrities (not that i have something agaisnt them ) on the TV , and automatically you want to be like them , because you see that the get attention from others . But that's not the right way of building a good self-esteem because, what you see on TV and magazines is not reality . They have been through thousands of transformations to look perfect.
Some have done surgeries all over their bodies, others have put a lot of make up to cover up their true beauty , others have been edited through Photoshop. So, don't fool yourself, be who you are . Be unique . You don't need to follow others to feel good. Simply be YOU and you will begin to see that they will be the ones following you .
The statistics of low self-esteem are incredible ...
Take a look :
Isolating yourself won't make any better ..
It's just going to lead into depression and suicidal thoughts !
If you try to follow the media you'll end up like this

The statistics of low self-esteem are incredible ...
Take a look :
- “Girls’ self-esteem peaks when they are 9 years old, then takes a nose dive,” clinical psychologist Robin F. Goodman writes on the New York University Child Study Center Web site.
- Seventy-five percent of 8- and 9-year-olds who said they liked their looks. That figure dropped to 56 percent among girls ages 12 and 13.
- Nine — Age at which at least half of all girls report having been on a diet. Eighty percent of eighth grade girls say they are on diets.
- Seven million girls and women who have eating disorders, compared with 1 million boys and men. Ten percent report onset at 10 years or younger; 33 percent ages 11 to 15.
- Twenty percent College-aged women in America are bulimic.
- Girls who watch TV commercials featuring underweight models lose self-confidence and become more dissatisfied with their own bodies (SOURCE: Dove Campaign, “Dove Campaign for Real Beauty to Help Foster Self-Esteem in Girls”.
- One-third of all girls in grades nine to 12 think they are overweight, and 60 percent are trying to lose weight. (Quoting the Girl Scout Research Institute, 2002-2004).
7 Desirable Traits of Healthy Self-Esteem
- Are friendly.
- Have lots of energy.
- Smile lots and lots and lots.
- Feel good most of the time.
- Talk positively to themselves.
- Draw positive people to them.
- Are independent and able to take risks.
Isolating yourself won't make any better ..
It's just going to lead into depression and suicidal thoughts !

Change you mentality .. I don't think you would want to end up in neither of this situations.Would you?
Look at the mirror , and love what you see, you still have eyes, nose,mouth etc. Even if you didn't, no one can tell you who you are.
YOU know yourself more than anybody else!
Do something to build and strength a self-esteem of a precious girl !
You will become like this!
Your self image, self concept and self-esteem reflects who you are. It massively affects you, physically, intellectually,emotionally and socially .This applies in every area of your life, whether in your marriage, friendships, job and so forth.
I Hope you've enjoyed the topic, and this message were helpful .Love and Kisses,

You are not alone !
Today, I was starting to read the book of Jeremiah and God spoke to me . I read the whole chapter 1 , and I will be reading the whole book . It is very powerful. It has really encourage me to do what God wants me to do , and do not fear . Therefore, I've decided to share with you all.
This message applies to ANY area of your life . Don't think you can't make it , because YOU CAN !
Sometimes, when we see someone , and God tell us to speak to them , but suddenly something just tells you that ,the individual is not interested or will react in a bad way, and you end up not talking to that person... May be you even wanted to go after them , but you were so scared of what would happen ..Did that ever happened to you? Well , be sure that you are not alone . When God tells you to do something don't be afraid ,OBEY.
I've recently realised that some youths in the church are very afraid to speak to others in the streets or elsewhere.Not because they are ashamed , but they are very uncomfortable. They are very worried in what people (their friends) are going to say , or how people are going to react .Those who think like that , are very negative when they evangelise. The soonest the finish to speak to a person , they are already saying " She/He wasn't even looking at my face.. they aren't interested..they NOT going to come !"
So, my friends, if you are in this situation , you can erase it now , and start to act in a different way , because it is written .
"Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you;
I ordained you a prophet to the nations"
Then I said :
"Ah,Lord God!
Behold, I cannot speak,for I am a youth ".
But the Lord said to me :
"Do not say, ' I am a youth'
For I am with you to deliver you " says the Lord.
Then the Lord put forth his hand and touched my mouth, and the Lord said to me :"Behold, I have put my words in your mouth.
Jeremiah 1-10
"Therefore prepared yourself and arise, and speak to them all that I command you. Do not dismayed before their faces, lest I dismay you before them. For behold, I have made you this day a fortified city and an iron pillar" Jeremiah 1-16:18
So my friends, if you are in this situation , don't fear ! You're not alone
If you do whatever he commands you , you will start to be a soul winner!
Love and Kisses ,
Jessica Sebastiao
