Hi and welcome! I’m Rori and I’m a big promoter of “Positive thinking, Inner balance & Self-care”, dedicated to helping everyone around me become the person they most want to be!
Born and raised in Soweto, south of Johannesburg the largest city in South Africa. I am a Business Analyst by profession, I’m a naturally inquisitive person, I like to know why certain things happen the way they do. I am a solution driven individual.
Part of my character is problem solving and I believe there is no problem without a solution. I’m very analytical, which makes me a very curious person and wanting to figure out what holds the world together basically.
I’m actually excited to have created a self-awareness empire that will touch millions of people out there.
I’ve been curious about human potential. I want to know what exactly makes people genuinely happy and fulfilled.
So it all started with 2 questions, which are: ‘What do I want from life, anyway?’ ‘Who am I and why am I on this earth?’
“And I thought to myself, ‘I want to be happy’…
Hmmmm, then I asked again: ‘What is happiness?’, the answer was to be in a “Well-being” state.
Ok, what does it mean to be in a Wellness state?
And the answer was “having good mental health, high life satisfaction, and a sense of meaning or purpose.”
Great!, now that I knew what it is I wanted, I started figuring out what parts of wellbeing were important to me and how exactly am I going to build that “Rori” that I wanted to become.
I knew I had to start with small changes/habits like eating healthy, exercising regularly, meditate and spend time alone to do self-observation to mention just a few. I promise you in 2 weeks I started feeling good about myself, I was happier, its like my mindset was re-programmed and I knew I was on the right track.
What followed from this was developing skills such as consistency, determination, passion, I learned how to break bad habits and develop good ones.
Right there I knew that this should be my lifestyle.
You probably already know that if you stop eating healthy and go back to eating junk food, then you’ll end up back where you started, am I right? It turns out that the exact same thing is true for different types of well-being. If you want to maintain the benefits you gain, you’ll have to continue to engage in well-being-boosting practices to maintain your skills
Well-being emerges from your thoughts, actions, and experiences — most of which we have control over.
My goal is to add more value to people’s lives by sharing my life experiences which I intend to use as a testimony to encourage other people who go through the same or similar life journey and more importantly that you can use or apply my learning to improve your life or share with your loved ones who might relate to same.
Before we go further lets redefine “SERVING YOURSELF FIRST”, shall we? Because the Serving yourself first that I’m talking about is not about being selfish or making yourself look better than others. No it’s not even close to that. It is far beyond and deeper than that.
“Serving yourself first” is ensuring you are in a wellness state to keep your life in balance which is the Mind, Body & Spirit. The pursuit of health, personal growth, and improved quality of life relies on living a balanced life. To achieve balance, we need to care for our mind, body, and spirit.
The heart of this blog will be discussions about Your Mind, Body & Spirit Wellness. True health is serving yourself first before serving others. You cannot serve from an empty cup.
I hope you will join me in helping you, me and everyone else Grab our Power by understanding who we really are and our life purpose.
Happy Healthy You 🙂
