My Hobbies and Interests


MY Hobbies and Interests

My name is Blessing Tshabalala and I am going to share with you my interests and things I enjoy doing in my spare time, I love music, I sing, I play the guitar and I write my own songs. I would say that music is what inspires me in the morning to take on the day, there’s just something about music that triggers an impulse within myself and I tend to be escorted through a journey of someone else’s life and feel the same emotion at that time, the thing I love most about about music is that it doesn’t need words to be understood, it’s almost like a universal language. I also enjoy many sports such as: football, rugby and boxing, I would say most of my life revolves around music and fitness another  interesting thing to know about me is that I was Captain of my rugby team in year 9 in South Africa and I also ran the 100mtres for the county team of Queteng. I would say most of my life revolves around music and gym, I would say that my motivation for fitness started at a young age when I was on the border of being Obis and I decided to get my life back into order. I’d like to close with saying I feel music and gym have helped me threw out my life for example when I’m at the gym and I am pushing through a rep that same principle can be used in my day to day life which is why I feel I can’t stop because it would feel as if a part of me is gone.
 
 
 

"The Secret to Success" by Eric Thoms Review.



“The Secret to Success by Eric Thomas”

The book I read throughout the break is a book called “The Secret to Success by Eric Thomas” This book, "The Secret to Success is an inspirational book especially to me because it’s about a man who was once kicked out of his own home as a child, a man who never knew his own father until the age of the 30 and had only recently finished University in 2014  to get his degree after 12yeaers for a 4 year degree, this book is an autobiography so it really motivated me to understand that everything is possible if you put your mind to it when you try. Eric Thomas is the best motivational speaker in the world because of the story he has to tell and the level of passion that he has to see success in others as well as himself, from this book I learned that if God blesses you with a talent then run with it because there’s a reason why you have it. One of the quotes used by Eric Thomas is that “the richest place of the earth is grave yard, because there we can find dreams and ideas which were never chased because of the fear of not succeeding.” I would say this book changed my life and makes me want to be the best I can be.
