It's just that I had laptop problems, but the universe loves me and I am doing great. I'm still continuing this awesome episode, since I started this weekly exercise I immediately noticed the difference in my personal life. I have noticed the positive impacts it has had on developing and practicing my skills as an individual. As a leader, it has given me the same faith and confidence that my people have in me. But that's a different story and your sister right here is known for being humble.  I share this with you in the hope to inspire.

                                      1. I will thrive 

"shachem Lieuw in the mall"


No matter what it Is you aim for in life it is important to believe in yourself and the abilities that you have. Remind yourself of all the reasons why you deserve to thrive. Remind yourself why it's worth it and why you are putting in all the hard work to realize your dreams. You know how much effort and energy you put into your daily life. If you want it, you will make it possible. After all the struggles that you have had to face in life should only push you to want better.Feed your inner being with the confidence it needs for you to thrive. Like I always say you need to have faith in yourself first. Strength is built from the inside. There is a difference between ego and confidence.  Confidence is what you need because confidence is the key to having enough faith in the warrior that lives inside of you. Ego is what the weak use to cover up their flaws. Ego feeds the hunger of those who wish to be better than others. Confidence feeds those that are hungry for self-improvement, happiness, and being content with who they are. What are you hungry for? Be careful which one you chose. Ego is easier to establish, but it also  shapes an inaccurate image of your reality. As a result the actions taken from Ego have no stable or lasting foundations. Confidence helps you recognize reality for what it is, seeing the challenges it will push you to see possibilities and to face these challenges with solutions based on your capabilities. Confidence builds actions based on ones desire for more and it helps exercise your skills. Confidence starts the journey for self improvement. Ego blocks you from taking that journey, it creates no room for improvement.

2. I welcome positive energy and positive experiences in my life

" Shachem Lieuw at Leonsberg"

Be open towards receiving and welcoming positive energy and experiences into your life. This should be a standard that you should uphold. You decide what kind of quality you welcome into your life. Don't be afraid to set the bar high. Because in the end, you play an important role in shaping the experiences in your life. You decide what does and does not drain your energy. Keep upholding a positive mindset, this will strengthen your ability to uphold boundaries. Boundaries are very important for your own mental and physical health. The more positive experiences and energy you welcome into your life, the more you feed your inner warrior with positivity. Positivity is a strength that few can master. I know it is easier said than done. But the challenges you will face on this road will help you realize how strong you can be when you really decide to chase happiness Whenever the journey gets tough, remind yourself why it's worth it and why you are definitely worth it. Other people may underestimate you, but you shouldn't underestimate yourself. When your open towards receiving positivity you automatically have a lower toleration for negative and toxic behavior. How you allow yourself to be treated tells people everything about how they should treat you. Keep that in mind when it comes to your interactions with others. 

                   3. I am capable of manifesting abundance

" Shachem Lieuw"

You are capable of manifesting abundance into your life. This can be an abundance of finances, love, and even positive relationships. If you aim for it, you can indeed achieve it. Decide what it is you desire out of this life and identify the necessary actions needed in order for you to succeed in your endeavors. At the base of every action lies a vision. Draw out your vision and shape it with the actions that are needed in order for you to manifest abundance into your life. Many men and women have dreamt, and those who formed their vision with their actions managed to realize that what humanity often thought to be impossible. Get rid of any box that limits the flow of your passion, talent, and creativity.  These are the tools that you will have to develop if you want to manifest abundance in your life. Stay focused on your vision even on the days when you lack motivation. Use discipline as an advantage when it comes to bringing your own desires to life. Remember not everyone will understand what you are aiming for. But none of us were meant to be the same. The world would be boring if we all were the same. Don't let their thoughts influence or drive your actions. It is your life to live, and live it in a way that will leave you without regrets. I have known to many people who had to face death with nothing but a list full of regrets.

                               4. I will live a balanced life

" Shachem Lieuw"

I do believe that it is important to live a balanced life. Being balanced on the inside brings more peace and stability into our daily lives. Be content with who you are, but at the same time be open for growth and improvement.  Have a stable mind and faith in your abilities yet remain humble so that you never miss a learning moment. I know it sounds contradicting but once you get the hang of it you have mastered yourself, your craft, and your own demons.  Find a healthy balance in all areas of your life. This will keep you energetic and motivated. But most of all be true to yourself and the values that you have selected to uphold. These are after all the things that will define your character.  Your character is what people will remember you by. It is the most important part of the legacy that we decide to leave behind. Your body might fade away as time goes by but legacies live on forever.  It is the mark that we leave in this world. It is the story by which your descendants will remember you. Therefore have a healthy balance, to leave behind a powerful legacy that speaks of internal peace. Staying in balance also means living for yourself while at the same time giving back to humanity. It isn't an easy state to achieve. But once you do achieve this state you will have a better understanding of life and show more respect towards the universe and all of her creations.Life is indeed short, I mean look how fast we have entered March. Before you know it we will be at the end of this month. And a couple of months after that the year will have passed. I know there is a lot going on in the world right now. But if that teaches me one thing, it is that life is short. Therefore we must treasure each and every moment. This is a lesson that I had to learn the hard way since I often get lost dreaming about the future. In doing that I sometimes lose sight of the moments that are in front of me.  We must live in the present as well, and have appreciation for these moments. Good or bad, because what are the chances that you get to witness another day in this beautiful world? What are the guarantees that tomorrow will be spent with loved ones again? We don't know when our time comes, but for now we must show appreciation for the times that we have. For that is a gift in itself.  Don't forget to add your personal notes of each item in your personal growth diary. Lets end this blog with nothing but love. I wish all  of you lots of love on your personal journey. Untill the next Story time,....

Paint Shopping And Food Stop At Warung Resa

 Paint Shopping And Food Stop At Warung Resa Hello Story Time friends, welcome back! I'm taking you along on another vlog. This video was made on a hectic day. I split the content of my adventures into different parts. So make sure you subscribe and stay tuned. There are a lot of stories that I still have to finish. I wish I had more time for my creative projects. But with my lifestyle in Suriname that is not realistic! Anyway, we're going paint shopping in different stores. I visited HJ De Vries, Malhoe's Building Materials, and a Historex retailer. When we were done combing through stores for our project, I was hungry and tired! So we decided to go to Warung Resa. Their Javanese food reminds me of my late grandmother's and aunt's cooking. It's flavorful and authentic. We had the Gudanang and the Long Tong Tahoe. Both are traditional dishes in Javanese culture. Long Tong Tahoe is made with bean sprouts, Tahoe, and chicken. It's then drizzled with a spicy

Green Key Expo At Torarica

 Green Awareness Expo At Torarica Hola mi amigos welcome back to a new Story Time adventure! There is a vibrant city in the beating heart of the Amazon rainforest! This city is rich with multi-ethnic culture and flavorful food. Of course, I am talking about Paramaribo. Living in the Amazon Rainforest, we're surrounded by greenery. But these parts of the Amazon Rainforest haven't been unaffected by global warming. The recent droughts where multiple rivers and creeks were empty is an example. The gold mining and wood exploitation that happens in our jungles is affecting the beauty of our land. Protecting the Amazon Rainforest means protecting the lungs of the world. Green awareness is a topic that's often mentioned in this part of the world. Hotel Torarica organized a Green Key fair and of course, I had to visit! Now I can finally share the Story with you guys! Creating these Story Time episodes takes a lot of work. So I'd appreciate it if you subscribe and join our tri

Shadows Of Love

 Shadows Of Love Sometimes you must shuffle the deck a few times to be dealt the right hand. And sometimes you meet that King Of Hearts in the first move that the game will demand. In the shadows of love, there are many secrets hidden. Something about you felt familiar, calm, and at the same time forbidden. I wonder what the universe was conspiring when our paths crossed. From a distance, I felt your eyes capture my soul. Maybe this is a story that should never be told! But they say that if you want to enter the paradise of lovers you have to pay the toll! A friend once asked me a question, he said: " What is it you are looking for now that we are getting old?". I told him I wanted someone who could spark my mind, soul, and maybe my inner sexual being. After he exposed the beauty hidden in my poetry, thoughts kept flirting with this hidden feeling. Sometimes we need the right people to ask us the right questions! But sometimes when the ones we hide in our hearts want to kno

Lunch At Hotel Torarica

 Lunch At Hotel Torarica Hello friends, as you noticed, the Story Time U.F.O. hasn't taken off from Torarica yet! When we finished checking in at Royal Torarica we were hungry! It's good that we were only a short walk from Torarica. Through the backyard of Royal Torarica, we found our way into the restaurant of Hotel Torarica. We sat in their dining room and ordered food from their menu. In my vlog, you will see the food items and prices listed on Hotel Torarica's menu. I had some chicken with corn. My plate was filled with greens and even had a chicken sate included. It was delicious! But my favorite had to be the truffle wedges! If you are visiting Hotel Torarica, I'd definitely recommend trying it! They are topped with parmesan cheese. A simple but buttery and flavorful dish. Stew ordered a fish dish that came with watermelon. It was relaxing to have dinner in the backyard of Torarica. We could hear the birds chirping and some birds even landed on our tables. But k

   Storytime with Donovan Dongo, Dongo Brothers selected  The Dongo brothers holding the Surinamese flag in front of the  W.W.E performance center in America. Today I have some good news for the people of Suriname. I know I am a bit late with this story, but what can I say. I have been having problems with my Internet provider for a while now.  If you live in Suriname, you probably can relate. But on with Storytime, today we are going to talk about the Dongo brothers.  These guys have proven that dreams do come true, with a lot of hard work and effort.  The World Wrestling Entertainment (W.W.E) has selected Donovan and Leandro Dongo to represent Suriname.

Blogger notes: Happy new year! Storytime in 2022

Happy new year, Storytime in 2022 Hi guys, I want to wish all of you a happy new year. I am learning to stay positive no matter the circumstances. Throughout the years I have become a professional at it. The weird thing is, the better I get at it the better my skills become. I have to say I am proud of myself for getting through last year. There were some painful lessons, as usual. I have come to learn that they are a part of the journey that helps me build my successes. The more I embraced positivity the less my anxiety became.  Anxiety can be a messed-up demon, but the warrior in me kind of grew tired of it and decided to stab it. That's the problem when you know how strong you are.  The only thing is, I just wasn't in a hurry to grow up. Especially if you grew up in the public eye like I did. But I have no regrets. Because each step that I made in life also led me to beautiful people and beautiful experiences. The more content I feel with my life, the more my inn
