WAKE UP!

Why does it take a big event for you to "wake up" to some of the important things in your life?

Why does it take your wife or husband threatening to leave for you to start fully appreciating your marriage and your family?

Why do you have to get fired to realize what a great opportunity your job was?

Why do you need a doctor to tell you you're one step away from heart disease to get you to change your diet and exercise habits?

Why does it take a loved one falling ill for you to get fully checked out?

Why does it take your child getting in trouble at school for you to really stop and ask him or her how school is going?

Why does it take really bad weather for you to appreciate the beauty of a simply "nice" day?

My friend Harvey Mackay says:

"The little things don't mean a lot. They mean everything."

The problem is, while we know which things are important in our lives, we're so distracted all the time that we don't pay them full attention until they've become problematic. Until that infamous "wake up call."

Here's a little exercise: Try to think of a few hypothetical wake up calls you'd hate to receive.

Now go appreciate those "little things" before their destruction wakes you up!

  • Hello everyone, I am from Wembley, Britain. I want to write this testimony to tell others and thank Dr. Odunga for what he has done for me. The first 12 years of my marriage I had 5 miscarriages and I was called all sorts of names by my mother-in-law and this made my marriage life very hectic and a burden of sorrow. I contacted Dr. Odunga for help and I will say that he is a very strong and honest man and he indeed helped me solve my problem. I saw his email in a testimony and I contacted him, little did I know it would be the end of all my problems. After 2 days of contact, I received a fertility herb and he told me to use it. The herb worked and my husband even loved me more and bought me expensive things. One afternoon, I went to a nearby hospital and came back home with the positive result of my pregnancy and after 9 months I gave birth to a baby boy. Ever since I contacted Dr. Odunga, my story has been different. I have 3 children at present and I am very happy in my marriage. Please, contact him at odungaspelltemple@gmail.com OR Whats App him +2348167159012 to help you too
