5 SKILLS EVERY WOMAN SHOULD MASTER

• UNBLOCK YOUR AWARENESS

This is the key to genuineness every woman craves for.

Learning to hit the roof top in your own preference can be really fulfilling. Learning to understand your own being. Taking the time to notice your engagements and enjoyments, trying out new things, activities and experiences and honoring yourself enough to make time for yourself.

We normally get busy with family, and other duties that we forget our inner delights. Unblocking our awareness means that life is changing and those new discoveries await. So we need to be aware of what’s going on around us and how it can be beneficial to our inner being.

• GETTING OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE 

Our growth and success are often relative to how many dangers we’re willing to take and how often we’re willing to let ourselves be uncomfortable. We fool our souls when we play safe. Getting out of our comfort zone doesn’t mean to take extreme measures like running a marathon, or taking the stage and dancing to ‘Ndombolo’. It simply means trying out things you thought were impossible or difficult to handle but starting out in baby steps and eventually reach your destination in great victory.

• SAY ‘NO’ WITHOUT EXPLAINING 

As the saying goes ‘when a woman says NO, she actually means YES. Sometimes you may really mean saying NO but the tone in which you say that NO is not the firm NO which means in the deeper you, you are saying YES. Many women don’t believe they can have what they want, so they learn to settle and their lives become filled with ‘Maybe’s and what if’s’. Some of the women realize that saying NO with clarity and without explaining is really about honoring other people as well as yourself. This gives you a peaceful inner feeling. 

Quoting the New President of Zimbabwe His Excellency CDE Emerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa, in his first speech he says; “It is impossible to please everyone, my mandate is to the people not to my advocates. The best leader must learn to say ‘NO’.’’ 

You can still say yes when you want, and that’s okay! But there is a wonderful sense of power in taking back your health and your life when you say no. Believe me, it feels so good after the first few times that you might want to start saying no to everything! 

Try it out. Say NO with clarity and don’t explain why you said NO. Let me know what happens. lukomaasociates@gmail.com

• LISTENING WITHOUT VERDICT 

I am convinced that most people don’t know the meaning of listening. Many will argue with me saying listening is listening and that’s it. When you are listening to someone talking, you wait for your turn to speak that only means you are judging rather placing a verdict on what the other person is saying so you respond in judgment. We spend most of the time judging or playing verdicts instead of listening. Learning how to truly listen without judgment whether to someone else or to yourself changes lives, it awakens the intuition, it heals and empowers the speaker, and it enriches the present moment. So let’s learn to listen without judging.

• LETTING GO OF THE NEED TO ‘FIX’ 

Stop wanting to fix everything or everyone, some things are not meant to fix. Sometimes we just need to understand that when trying to fix another person, you are robbing them of their own empowerment. In such situations, it’s often you fixing yourself rather than them. Allowing others to find their own wisdom to make their own mistakes teaches them to learn from them and even accept the present moment as well as the ambiguity that comes with their decisions. You just have to let go. Let everyone decide for themselves.

There you have it. Those are the 5 skills every woman should master so as to live a fulfilling life.
