Have you ever heard the saying that you can create the kind of world that you want to live in ? When you look around you what do you see, a world of abundance or a world of scarcity. The law of attraction is real but our mind is very powerful. "Whatever the mind conceive it can achieve"

Have you ever been around someone who sees the world as doom and gloom and they always have an excuse why they never have anything. If you see a world  where you think that you will never have enough money or cannot afford to acquire certain things ,then that's the world you will live.

Now this is not to say that realistically the world isn't full of ups and downs. But it is very important for us as humans to understand we hold the key to what our world will be like. So decide what kind of world do you want to live in

If you decide that you will live in a world of abundance then that is what you will attract in your life. I live a simple life but I believe that I can buy a home or anything that I desire. Once I put my mind to it I know it is going to happen because I live in a world of abundance.

You ever notice if you start thinking about something, say for example buying a certain type of car. Then out of the blue you start to see all these types of car. Simple because you have created in your mind a world where anything is possible.

Simply create the world that you want to live in.If you want a world of abundance then you must believe this and you will attract what ever it is that you set your mind to. Likewise when you live in a world of lack then  scarcity is all that you will see around you.

living simple doesn't mean having less. Simply create the kind of world that you will live in. In other words  create a world of abundance within this world.

Laughter is good for the soul. Learning to laugh yourself is a great for your physical health. Did you know that it takes more muscles to frown than to laugh. We look at living life simply on your own terms. Follow us on instagram@simplicityseeu


Let us get back to talking about laughter. When one laughs it does something to your body. When was the last time you had a good laugh about something. When you laugh your entire body relaxes and you get a wonderful feeling of youth and dizziness. That is because when we laugh we secrete certain hormones that gives us this happy feeling


The proverb says that laughter is great medicine. When you learn to laugh at yourself you free your self from the guilt of judging yourself or taking life too seriously. Notice someone who doesn't laugh much and who is always serious may be negative and are always unhappy.


That is because laughter has been link to living a long and healthy life. Betty White is an example of this. She was always laughing and had a positive outlook on life.


It has been researched and proven that when you laugh constantly and have a positive and healthy outlook on life it decreases diseases in your body and you are more likely to fight off certain illness


Laughter brings people together and it also increases your oxygen in take. So if you have not done start laughing . Without a doubt it is much more fun to be around someone who is always laughing as oppose to a negative person. Laugh and the world will laugh with you.


Laugh even when you do not want to laugh, and before you know it the situation while it may not go away but having a good laugh makes it seems less stressful. Laughter definitely decreases stress.


We live in a stressful, fast paced world with everyone trying to keep up with social media. Laughing is good for mental health as it can reduce anxiety and paranoia . Your heart rate will drop as the tension you felt is relived during laughter.


Ever notice how a child's laughter is so much fun to listen to. That is because laughter comes naturally to a child. They giggle about anything and everything. Learn to find humour in your surroundings. I am not saying to take things seriously or to laugh at anyone or everything. Instead what I am trying to say is not to take yourself too seriously.


Learn to laugh through the good and bad times. It has been scientifically proven that laughter has long term affects on your physical and mental health. Life is simply wonderful and you can live the life that you want to live.


So how does one develop an attitude of laughter. As Nike would say just do it.. Each day as you go about life laugh at the people you meet. Some will return the favour by laughing and others may not. That is okay do not stop laughing


Laugh at yourself when you have made an an error at something. Don't be surprised when others join you in laughing too. And if someone is laughing at you for some reason join them in laughter and tell the joke is on you. This normally changes the course and mood of the situation as people normally lighten up.


Laughter can create lasting bonds with people are it breaks many boundaries. Though people make speak different languages, laughter is universal. Everyone understands the meaning of laughter or a smile. Someone who is laughing seems much more approachable than someone with a frown.


Someone who is always laughing is obviously someone who will have a great sense of humour and normally is someone who is happy with who they are or simply contented with what they have. Enjoy the simple things in life that brings you absolute joy.


Clearly even though we are talking about the benefits of laughter, there are times in our lives when we will have to have a serious approach to something. When I say to develop a laughing spirit I am not saying that you should be goofy or laugh at something inappropriate, or to laugh at someone in a mean way.


I am merely saying that having the spirit of laughter in your life brings about wonderful benefits both to your physical and emotional well being. Find something in your life today that makes you laugh. Leave your comments below by letting us know what are some of the things you laugh about.


Social media has many funny moments that is posted. This is a good side of social media being used in a useful manner. Let us learn to laugh together as laughter is a great way to communicate. The world is tense and negative at times therefore having a good laugh lets you forget about life and its many turmoils even if it is for a while.


Every notice when you smile at a baby or young child they smile back because laughter by and of itself is a language. Have a great laughter today. Your body and health will thank you. Live the life you love and love the life you live

Today's blog post is about Panty Scheme , what is it ? No that was not a typing error you did hear what I said right. Today's video is about Panty Schemes. I will now go on to explain what I am saying about Panty Scheme
Disclaimer : I did not invent this name but rather got it from off In the mean time radio show by Curlyloxx the voice box. I thought it was a befitting term as I was also going to speak on the same topic. I will come back to the term in a bit.
There is a Netflick series that features The Tinder Swindler. This is a true story of a young man who went on a dating App website called Tinder to meet women. The issue was that this man swindled many women out of their hard earning money which caused many of these women to be in huge debt.
A group of these women after finding out what happened decided to come together to hunt him down and seek justice. These women must be commended as so many romance scammers get away with swindling their victim's money
This Tinder Swindler was running a Panty Scheme in that he was using one woman's money to treat another woman. These women were treated to lavish lifestyles such as private jets and fancy dinner. Get aways to exotic islands hence the name Panty Scheme (pun intended)
because just like a Ponzi Scheme you take from Peter to pay Paul. Now as unfortunate as this is let us talk about it. Everyone is mad at this swindler but are we supposed to really lay all the blame on this person ? Let us be clear about one thing what I am about to say is no way belittling the victims or supporting someone playing with another person's emotions. But let us take an objective look at this.
We have been blinded and fooled into a Disney and Hollywood euphoria that there is happily ever after. Prince charming does exist and he is all things seen in the movies and there are no quarrels and you will live this blissful life forever. Believe it or not many women believe this nonsense that even when they know that they are being swindled if it is something they want they will refuse to let go because they have already establish a fantasy in their head
Let us be honest. Many women gave up their money to this man because it appeared he was rolling in money. The fancy clothes and lavish life style fooled many of them into thinking that this must be true. They were willing to part with their money because 1. they believe they would get back their money and 2. even if they had doubts they were afraid to let go for the fear of losing a billionaire.
If the women had step back and think about this from a critical perspective then they would have seen that this made no sense. Why would you be giving your little money to someone who claims they are from a high profile family. Then they would have access to resources beyond what you would ever have in your life time.
It is like the romance scammers who scam women into sending them money. They claim to be working on oil rig, in the army or diamond and gold entrepreneurs. Yet these guys always are in problems and want these women to send them money. But if you have these jobs you should have insurance and the resources, not to mention the army is well equipped with resources and would never abandon their men or women.
Therefore if the women were to step back and think about it before parting with their hard earn money  
they would see that it just doesn't add up. The Tinder Swindler realizing how society romanticize about the Prince coming to rescue his woman he knew if he looked the part, then he would have women falling over to give him anything. Don't hate the player even though it was wrong
But ladies you also have to take some responsibility in this. A man whom you have never seen or whom you have just met asking you for money continuously is a definite red flag. From the first time he brings up the subject of money , run immediately. You work too hard. Do not doubt yourself or let someone guilt you into giving up your money.
Many women give their money because they feel they do not want to miss out on something. Then you have other women who wrap themselves in the whole fantasy of Disney Fairy Tales that they refuse to acknowledge the truth that they are being scammed.
One of the victims said it herself though life is about love it is our beliefs in societal norms that has led us to believe that love in wrapped up in someone coming to save you and you then ride off into the sunset. There is no Prince Charming. Relationships are about work. and anything comes too easy is worth taking a careful look
let's save the next generation. Accept Disney for what it is , fantasy, and great entertainment. Nothing less and nothing more. Think carefully before handing over your money as there are many more Tinder Swindlers out there. Live simple, expect more.

What is balance and how do you find balance in your life. Finding balance in life is easier said than done. Life is filled with many twists and turns and hurdles to overcome.Follow us on instagram@simplicityseeu We look at living life in its simplicity


As I stated earlier how does one find balance in life. Better yet the question is what really is balance anyway ? Having balance in your life is where you are able to manage and divide your time effectively, thereby having control over different elements in your everyday life and not getting burnt out in any one area.


Striking a balance life is no easy task and it takes a lot of self control as well as skillfully managing your time to carve out time for different aspects of your life. To have a balanced life is very important for both your mental and physical health.


Life has its ups and downs and it will never be a smooth road. Finding balance has to be a purpose because if you do not have balance in your life you will be drained out. Therefore how do you find balance in your life. We live in a fast pace life and without realizing it the stresses of life can creep up on you and before you know it you are overwhelmed with life and this results in exhaustion, ill health and frustration.


In order to find a balance in your life you must seek it out. In other words you must be vigilant about it. The first thing to finding a balance in your life is to have a strong sense of who you are. Know that you are important, therefore you will need time for yourself. Do not feel guilty to take time out of your schedule to focus on you


it is important to recharge and fuel your energy by getting away form your routine. Always find time to meditate or escape for moments and focus on you. This doesn't mean that you have to travel or even leave your house. It just means take moments to just be in the moment and be by yourself


In finding balance take an assessment of your overall life. Is there one thing that is taking up too much of your time. Yes in our lives at times we will have to work long hours, or if we are working towards a goal we may be involved with a particular project. But this should not be ongoing to the point where it is causing you stress and an imbalance


This would mean then you should find a solution to create the balance that you need by correcting what ever is causing the pain. You need to find a way to correct the situation to bring about the balance that you need. This may not be able to happen over time but you should continue to work towards the outcome that you need to see


Too often as humans we take on more than we need to. Know when to say no. You cannot sit on every committee or volunteer for several groups. Stop trying to be a super hero. We are only given 24 hours. I spoke of managing your time wisely in another video. Do not let any one let you feel guilty of saying no to be involved in something that is going to take away time from your life to create an imbalance


Try to avoid negative people and toxicity. Your energy will be sapped and you will feel stressed if you surround yourself with this energy. Even if it is family or good friends do not give in. This ties in back with saying no also


understand that in life you cannot help everyone, therefore do not take on people's issues or think you must solve their problems. Be polite and learn to walk away. I am not saying that you should not respond to friends or families emergencies or listen if someone is in pain. But there are some persons who are toxic and they are always negative. I am saying know when to walk away, especially if it is a pattern of behaviour


Life is short and perfection does not exist. Stop trying to impress everyone or think that you must have things all together or you must achieve certain things by a certain time. Compete with yourself and not anyone else


Do not put pressure on yourself to live up to society's expectation of what we should have , or where we should be in our careers. Let go of perfection and simply be you, and anyone who does not like it that is their problem.


Do not compare yourself to others. Know your strengths and weaknesses. Know that you cannot control another person just as how you cannot control the weather, therefore do not get caught up with what others think of you. Fix the things about you that you want to improve and use your strengths to help you


Every day we are given a clean slate, so each day start over , therefore when you make a mistake own up to it and keep it moving instead of beating up on yourself


Last thing I will say in finding balance is to love yourself unconditionally. Love all your flaws, be kind to yourself and each day tell yourself that you are a unique person who is fabulous. Find your balance in 2022

 ​There is a saying that there is a season for everything. All things are done for a reason. Nothing in life is constant. In some countries there are 4 distinct seasons, summer, fall, winter and spring.


Some countries only have one season but there are different weather patterns for example , In a tropical country there would be a rainy season and a dry one. You get the point of what I am saying.


Just as how there are seasons of the atmosphere so it is that there are different seasons in your life. It is important that we realize that nothing in life is constant and your life will change through out its course. One must be prepared for the different seasons through out your life's journey. If planned correctly, then you will be able to move through each life's season embracing all life has to offer.
Here are the four seasons of our life:
Spring: This is our birth where we come into this world and everything is new. There is a sense of joy as we are welcomed into a family. This is the early years of our life where we are fascinated by everything around us. We want to explore the world we are in and we approach the world with a sense of innocence. During this period of your life you are trusting of everyone, and the world through your eyes is all good. the spring of your life is seen in simple terms.


Summer: This period of your life is in your late teens rolling into your twenties and early thirties. This is where you find independence and it is supposedly the tropical period of your life as in this season you venture out leaving family in search of an identity and excitement. The summer season of your life can be exhilarating. Some people will pursue careers or some persons may get married, but the possibilities are endless. It is a time to network and form last long friendships and alliances. It is a beautiful phrase in your life that should not be ignored or wasted.
During your summer you are still trying to figure out your identity, who you are or where you want to go and this is perfectly normal.


Fall: The Fall of your life is from the late thirties to the fifties. This is the period of your life where for many they have experience many highs or lows. Some persons may have been divorced, some may have grown kids and are experiencing empty nests because the kids have moved out. In some case many persons develop ailments during this season of their life. For some people they may find a newness to life and may start over by pursuing new career or relationships.


But for others pending on their mindset this season can become one of stagnant complacency, as they feel too old to pursue dreams, or they may just feel useless or demotivated. For many people in the season of fall they become stuck in a rut that they refuse to get out of.


Winter: This season is the final leg of your life from your 60s onward. Some people may retire and become sedentary, while some persons may even start another career or continue to work. Many persons by now have grand children. Pending on how you have lived and prepared in the other seasons winter can be simple satisfying.


But it can also be hard for many persons if there are ailments or poor finances. It can be one of constant ailments, and for some people pending on your mindset they worry about the final days of their life. The winter period of your life was meant for reflection and for looking back at your legacy and family. For some there will be a sense of fulfilment for others there may be regret. Whatever your thoughts are the fact is that the winter season of your life is your final destination whether you like it or not.


Boyz to men one of my favourite r and b group have a song name seasons change. The simple truth is we all have 4 seasons throughout our life should we live to a certain age, and even then there will always be seasons in our lives. Some days will be winter, other times it will be summer. It all depends on how you handle your seasons and how you prepare ahead.


Life is simple and there is no reason to fear what is ahead. Like natural season you plan ahead. You do not wear summer clothes during winter, Nor would you dress for winter during the summer. Embrace the seasons in your life and plan accordingly.


There is no need to fear the seasons that we will come across throughout our life because it is inevitable. Enjoy your springs, soak up your summers, celebrate your falls, and absolutely adore your winters. And most of all be good to you


Which season of your life are you in. I am in my fall and I am simply enjoying it. Live the life you love, and love the life you live. Leave your comments below by telling me about your seasons.

Until next time let simplicity meets you where you are.

                
Happy New Year from simplicityseeu. I wish for all my readers a simple yet prosperous year in 2022. May you find health, peace of mind, wisdom and financial freedom along with a simplier lifestyle
It is the custom that at the start of the new year some persons will make new year resolutions. Researchers has found that more than three quarter of persons break these resolutions by the end of January.
I have always been of the opinion that trying to keep a resolution is like trying to follow a diet that is not possible. Instead of goals create a vision board as a guide to the things you intend to achieve within the coming year and beyond

As someone who doesn't believe in New Year's resolutions I do believe that for the year 2022 there are six things that each person should have on their list in order to be a better version of themselves in 2022 than they were in 2021. With the advent of social media we should constantly look at how we interact with others.
Here are 6 resolutions everyone should set for themselves in 2022
1. Listen before you speak : In todays fast technological world we fail to take the time to listen to each other. As each generation gets technological advance conflict resolution seems to be a thing of the past. Someone says something on social media about someone and in no time the victim is online screaming or complaining about what the person didn't say. only parts of the conversation was heard before jumping to conclusion.
let us try and listen more to each other. Also why contact the person off line to try and resolve the issue before coming online to vent.
2. Believe before you pray: This doesn't necessarily have to do with religion. I have noticed in speaking with many persons that in praying for something they are still convinced that it will not happen. Then why bother to pray? If you are going to pray about something, then believe it will come through.
3. Earn before you spend: Many people are trying to live a life of luxury as seen on social media or are trying to live like their favourite celebrities, hence spending what they do not have. Stop trying to live a lavish life when you are living off credit cards and are getting yourself in debt. Find ways to earn more and increase your income to live the lifestyle you want.
4. Think before you write: I cannot emphasize this enough in this social media era. With the touch of a button your post is sent, never to be taken back even if deleted. Therefore think about what you write and ask yourself if it's important for you to post it. Not every thing on social media is worth commenting or responding to.
5. Try before you quit: We seem to live in a microwave era where many persons want quick results in everything instantly. I say to my viewers today that you must try something ten times over and never quit. Many of the things we enjoy today is because someone never quit but kept working at it.
Therefore whatever you are working on or want to achieve do not quit. If you keep at it, you will eventually get the results you were looking for
6. Live before you die. It is inevitable that we are not going to live forever and this is the reason that it is very important that you live life to the fullest. Go out and explore and pursue what you want in your life. Do not play it safe or hoping and wishing for what you want to accomplish. It is way better to try and fail than to not live. Many persons are alive but they are not living. Live the life you want by going after it
If you must make any resolutions for the year 2022 then I suggest that these 6 statements I have outlined be apart of your mantra in stepping into 2022. It is very important that we live our life with a sense of a purpose and not on wishful thinking. Life is simple and once you start to embrace a life of simplicity you will realize how uncomplicated and less stressful your life can be.
Do not make resolutions because its just a thing to do or because everyone is doing, instead make goals that are exclusive to your situations ,as well as ongoing steps that will change your situation.
Too often we do things just because everyone else is doing it, or it has become a norm. With social media we have to change the way we do things and we have to create new ways in order to protect ourselves in navigating this technological era. We at simplicityseeu wishes you a simplier 2022 filled with endless possibilities.

    The holiday season is in full swing. By now everyone have bought gifts for their love ones and many have travelled far and near to visit with family, despite the looming variant of Covid 19. From Simplicityseeu we want to take the time to wish everyone a safe and peaceful holidays.
    Holidays though meant to be a time of togetherness for family can be quite a stressful time for many families. I have noticed just how stressed many  persons were over having to host gatherings or the financial stress with having to purchase gifts.

   I have spoken to persons who want to opt out of family dinners but just do not know how to tell their families for the fear of being judged. The reality is that life is simple and wasn't meant to be complicated. Simplicity should prevail even during the holidays. It is up to you to make sure that you are in charge of simplifying your own  life. There are ways to make sure you have a simple holiday as well not getting overwhelmed.

   Here are a few tips to making sure your holidays  remain simple yet  full of  enjoyment in being with friends and families.

* Make a list of your plans for the holidays. Write down what type of activities you expect to partake in or what is it you want to avoid. Write down the pros and cons

* Make a list of your finances and how you plan to use your finances. If you feel as if you do not want to buy gifts then you should let your family know in advance. In my family we maintain on only buying gifts for children. The holidays should not be about gifts and persons should not feel bad if they are unable to give their friends or family gifts.

* Decide where you want to spend your holidays. For some persons they do not like  family gatherings because there may be tension or for some they may find it uncomfortable. I believe that life is too short to be some where you do not want to be. My advice to persons  who are in this situation is to gentle but firmly let their family knows they prefer to not attend a family dinner or holiday  gathering

*  If you are someone who gets easily stressed during  holidays then it is important that you find ways to remain calm by doing certain simple things such as,  deep breathing, exercising, or maintaining a hobby. Avoid  crowds  or public gatherings that may trigger anxiety'

* Plan ahead of the holiday what your budget is and try to stick to it. Regardless of what others are doing, do not get drawn into trying to keep up or compare yourself with others. Stick to the budget you have assigned for yourself.

* Be creative as it pertains to the holidays as giving doesn't always have to be about money. Volunteer to an organization or even help out a neighbour or friend who may be having some struggles. Baked cookies, or do jams or cook a dish for families or friends. There are many creative ways to show the holiday spirit other than financial. 

However you enjoy the holiday make it one to remember. The holidays are meant to bring us together than pull us apart. For some it is a time of reflection. Let us remember to be respectful of how others spend their holidays. Not everyone wants to be around others. If you know someone like that, as long as they are ok it is not right to judge, or impose your ideas on others.

From simplicityseeu we wish you a great holiday no matter how you spend it. leave your comments below by letting us know how you spent your holidays.

Mariah Cary has a song that begins by saying there's a hero if you look inside your heart. You do not have to be afraid of what you are


Are you a hero, or better yet are you your own hero. There is a saying that not all super heroes wear a cape. If it is one thing that this Pandemic has done is that it has shown us that there are many heroes live amongst us every day. I want to take the time to thank all our front line workers around the world who have kept the economies afloat despite the threat of this virus. Special thanks to our health care workers who continue to fight an unseen foe


There is a hero that lives inside all of us without us realizing that we are our own super hero. There is a saying that goes you never know just how strong you are until you have to face adversity. There are many persons who have gone through many incredible obstacles but yet they overcome . During difficult times the hero in you will show up


Will the hero inside of you show up today. Instead of feeling down about your circumstances why not figure out how you can rise above it. I guarantee you that once you start to devise a plan on how to get over the obstacles the hero in you will show up and take over


Can you be a hero to someone by uplifting their spirits or by lending a helping hand.. Whenever we reach out to others even if we are going through a hard time, just by reaching out to help others , will in turn lift your spirits. And you may find that whatever you were worried about , just by lending a helping hands to others it takes your mind away from your troubles


It is only through the difficult and rough times that many of us realize the inner strength within us . Many people who have passed through perilous and life threatening experiences look back and wonder how did they do it. They did it because in each of us lies an unforeseen hero which is an inner will power that pushes us to go on and if we seek the will to do so it will be done .


During dark times the hero within us rises up as our strength serves as an anchor to keep us grounded. Through out this difficult time of Covid we have seen many selfless heroes who have put others before themselves. Being a hero doesn't mean that you should sacrifice your emotional or mental health. Always remember to take care of yourself first.You cannot help yourself or someone if you are unwell, therefore be a hero to yourself first and foremost


Bring forth your own hero and stop waiting on someone else or something to save us or take us out or away from a situation. If you are in a jam or out of it today, summon forth your own hero buried inside of you.


Find the strength to persevere through whatever you are going through or whatever is thrown at you . Because when you learn to be your own hero it is a wonderful and glorious feeling when you overcome obstacles that are thrown at you. This doesn't mean that you are fearless, or that you will not want to give up


It just means instead how much better you will feel because you did not give up and how satisfying it will be because you relied on yourself. Being your own hero makes you come to the realization that everything that you need to go through life is already within you and you simply have the power to determine the life that you want. You decide what kind of day you will have, even if it is not going the way you want it to. You see , we can only control ourselves and our own emotions.


You cannot control the weather, certain outcomes or other people, but what you can control is how you will react in various circumstances. You are your own hero, therefore act and respond accordingly. Put the hero within you to work by letting it show up.


Simply being a hero in your own life is about living life on your own terms and not by the standards of society. It is about owning and living the life you love and loving the way that your life is. Being your own hero is about finding peace that transcend from within you that no one can shake or take away.


If you have not done so as yet then make sure to be your own hero and be the best that you can be . It is the best gift that you will ever give to yourself because as I said before you never know how strong you are until you have to be .Celebrate your hero inside of you today.


Let simplicity meets you where you are.
