Simple Things You Can Do To Help Protect The Earth - Shaun Stenning

Image
Every little thing YOU do really makes a difference! Read the news on any given day, and you’d think we were all soon-to-be goners from climate change. New stories and reports regularly reveal all the ways humans are trashing the planet at an unprecedented rate. Shaun Stenning said, “Becoming an environmental warrior doesn’t require a superhero-like effort. Something as simple as creating a grocery shopping list or using ceramic baking pans can make a big difference.” “In fact, a healthy lifestyle and an eco-conscious one often go hand in hand. Extra bonus: Being eco-friendly is often easier on the wallet.” Shaun says. The most obvious ways to help the environment are to conserve energy and use less water. But if you put on your green thinking cap, you can come up with lots of less obvious, but no less important, earth-friendly habits. There are several ways that you – yes, YOU- can help protect this planet we call Earth. Reduce, reuse, and recycle. Cut down on what you throw away. F...

Is It Possible To Be Thankful In The Midst Of The COVID-19 Pandemic? - Shaun Stenning⠀

Thankful for COVID-19? No. Thankful in the midst of this pandemic? Yes. We’re living through unusual and trying times. The COVID-19 pandemic has people feeling stressed and frightened. According to Shaun Stenning , “During stressful periods, we tend to focus on the stress, and so can overlook the places where God is reaching out to us,”  “One thing that I’m always quick to remind people of is that our spiritual health is just as important as our physical and mental health. When we practice positivity, gratitude, and prayer, we are taking steps to become more spiritually healthy.” Shaun said.  That’s why it’s perhaps more important than ever to focus on gratitude —the practice of noticing and being thankful for what is valuable and meaningful to you. It’s good for your mental and physical health, it can help you relax and its effects can help you stay well through the coronavirus pandemic and beyond. It’s true that many of us are overwhelmed by this difficult situation happenin...

What Is Something That Made You Stronger - Shaun Stenning

  Think for a minute about your life and the experiences that have shaped you. What do you see? When I do this, I recall not the times I passed the exam, got the job or grant, fell in love, or made a new friend. I see the moments in my life that were painful the situations that exhausted me emotionally and left me nervous about where and what I was doing. I remember these experiences not because they made me want to retreat from the world, but because they helped me evolve within it. “What made me a stronger person is that I look things into a positive perspective, I look at things as a cup that is half full, and no matter what life throws at me, I am always positive in the end. I know it is easier said than done, but being positive is easy, all you have to do is be strong, be who you are, always be yourself, make sure that you surround yourself with positive and great energy throughout your day every day.” Shaun Stenning said. According to Shaun Stenning , “Always know you are wor...

I’ve found that starting a business is one of the most exciting adventures that you could ever embark upon. Like most things, the first time you try, you learn the hard way through trial and error.  According to Shaun Stenning , “Running a business sounds appealing, but the reality of it speaks for itself. As an entrepreneur, you step into a world where nobody is telling you what to do, or what to avoid, and your income depends solely on you.”  “Having been an entrepreneur for a couple of years now, I don’t think I’ve arrived. But I am further on my journey than some of you.” Shaun said.  This is why I decided to put together a list of things I wish I knew before I started my business . My hope is that you will learn from my mistakes and avoid them. Never Lose Sight of Your Customers Your business strategy must be aligned with creating value for your customer base or it won’t last. You should always be in touch with how you are solving your customer’s needs.  Focus o...
