A Reprieve for Zimbabwens, Pastors in a Million, 'On The FGM Ts Sales Front - Part 20'.

* Our government deciding to give Zimbabwens who may be living in South Africa illegally more time to legalise their status.It was announced that those who missed the 31st December 2010 deadline to fix their documentation won't be deported as yet.The process of deportation will only start on 1st August 2011.This means that those who missed the 31st December cut off time now have another six months to continue with the legalization process.
This postponement of deporting the 'illegally here' Zimbabwens,so to speak,by the government is commendable.It is a more humane way of dealing with this tricky immigration problem.


* Her church congregation may not be that big now,but it is a matter of time before Pastor Maureen Sebadela's followers swell in numbers.If her caring attitude towards her church members continues at the current rate,nothing will stop her church - 'Alpha & Omega',which is based here in Protea North - from being one of the biggest 'bazalwane' churches in Soweto.Possibly becoming as big as the Grace Bible Church one day.
In addition to the spritual upliftment she provides on Sundays,Pastor Maureen is known to give food parcels to those congregation members in need.In some instances she even helps out members with some money out of her own pocket.
We want to tell Pator Maureen that "we love your work my sister.And may the 'Alpha & Omega' church grow from strength to strength."


* ON THE FGM Ts SALES FRONT - PART 20

Getting an idea to link our FGM Ts to a charitable cause.This idea was inspired by the way the Barcelona Football Club has partnered with UNICEF.Barcelona not only gives UNICEF publicity by putting its name on their soccer jersey,but they also give UNICEF a certain amount of money from each jersey sold.
The Feel Good Movement could similarly hook up with an organization like READ,for example.READ helps to increase the level of literacy in the country by teaching people how to read and write.We could then give,say,R10 to READ from each FGM t-shirt that we sell.
And we won't be doing this because we think people are likely to buy our Ts because of this link to charity.We are confident that we can still sell those 47 million t-shirts even wthout this charity link.The 'giving back' element will make hitting our target even more sweet.


THANK YOU UNIVERSE.THANK YOU FOR OUR 'FEEL GOOD MOMENTS'.


Our FEEL GOOD poem of the week:


Our Neighbours
______________

Our fellow Africans,
Our neighbours up north,
Give them a chance.
Give them time,
Time to come right.
Our neighbours of the 'ruins',
Mtukudzi's countrymen,
They were there for us,
As was the rest of Africa,
In our darkest hour.
Give them a chance,
A chance to stay.

15 Million Tests by June 2011, Improved Matric Results, 'On The FGM Ts Sales Front - Part 19'

* A national campaign that is underway to have atleast 15 million South Africans voluntarily undergo an HIV test.The idea is mainly to raise awareness around knowing our status and to remove the fear of going for an HIV test.In addition,for those who may be HIV +ve an early detection will help them get treatment that may save their lives.
We are all for healthy for a healthy nation.We urge all people of Mzansi to go and get tested.


* Congatulations are in order.The matriculants of 2010 doing well in their final year high school exams.The pass rate of the class of 2010 is 7.2% better than that of 2009.

"Well done guys."

It also being funny how almost everyone is coming forwrad to claim some credit for these improved matric results.There were the teachers unions beating their chests,saying their teaching skills were responsible.Then there was the government which insisted that the division of the Education portfolio into two ministries contributed to the good results.
Then I suppose we - in The FGM - can also claim some credit.Afterall we did write a post ("Wishes of Good Luck for Matric Students....") in which we motivated the matrics of 2010 to do well.Not to mention the excellent - if we may say so ourselves - 'feel good' poem('Class of 2010') that we put together for them.


* ON THE FGM Ts SALES FRONT - PART 19

Slowly I am trying to get back into the grove of selling.It is proving to be challenging to a certain degree.I can't shake off the festive season laziness.The fact that I have to drive myself - as opposed to a boss saying I must now get on with it - does not help matters.
I am thinking that maybe after this coming week,when most people go back to work and the schools re-open,I will be able to get my motivation back.


THANK YOU UNIVERSE.THANK YOU FOR OUR 'FEEL GOOD MOMENTS'.

Our FEEL GOOD poem of the week:

A Test
______

A test to see.
Am I healthy?
Or not.
A test to let me know.
Do I need help?
A test to make me proud,
That I had the courage.
A chance to lead this,
To be examplary.
Help create a healthy SA,
Take this test.
I will take this test.

The FGM's Philosophy in Brief, An Expert's Advice on Being Happy, 'On The FGM Ts Sales Front - Part 18'.

* We found this quote by Abraham,from the book Ask And It Is Given(by Jerry and Esther Hicks),that best captures what we are all about here in the Feel Good Movement.As the new year starts,this outlook is something that we would like everybody out there to strive for .
Bo-Abraham say:

"What we are really encouraging is that every day you say,'Nothing is more important
than that I feel good.And I am going to find ways to do so today.As I move through the
day ,I'm going to look for opportunities to appreciate,so that all day I'll bring myself
back into Source Energy.If there is an opportunity to praise,I'm going to praise.If there
is an opprtunity to critisize,I'm going to keep my mouth shut.If I feel like critisizing,I'll
pet my cat till that feeling goes away.' "


* Still in the same vein.This 'focus on positives' attitude towards life to create happiness,is not as 'mambo jumbo-rish' as some people may think.Experts in the field of human behaviour give advice along the same lines.
In an article entitled "Pollyanna Days"(Sunday Times Lifestyle,24/10/10),by Claire Keeton,it is reported that our happiness in life is influenced by the choices we make,among other things.According to Dr Nick Powdthavee - a behavioural economist and author of the book The Happiness Equation - people should focus on the positive side of the equation.For example,think about the joy having children will bring,as opposed to the freedom you will lose by having them.Dr Powdthavee further
adds:

"By allocating our attention towards good things in our life more often - or,in layman's terms,to be
more thankful - our lives would be much happier."



* ON THE FGM Ts SALES FRONT - PART 18

In the past two weeks,leading up to Christmas and to New Year's eve,I have not been actively selling to be honest.The whole festive mood got to me also.The scenes around me here in my 'kasi' of people being on a holiday mode made me want to 'chill' also.You could say I also gave myself a vacation of sorts.
Now that the year has started I have to start getting out there to do some serious prospecting.
This year I plan to sell lots of FGM Ts.And if things go acoording to plan,I would like to have our Ts placed in some of our local retailers like YDE and Truworths.Even better though, would be an FGM Store here at our Protea Point Complex,selling our FGM Ts mostly.


THANK YOU UNIVERSE.THANK YOU FOR OUR 'FEEL GOOD MOMENTS'.

Our FEEL GOOD poem of the week:

What's Wrong With That?
______________________

In seeing the brighter side,
In choosing the plus side,
Of things,
There is nothing wrong.
Nothing at all.
To want to be happy,
To want to feel good,
Always,
What's wrong with that?
Life is better this way.
It's more rewarding,
Like this.
And if they don't like it,
If they can't stomach it,
Too bad.
Pollyanna is here.
And is here to stay.
