Donate for 200 girls vocational training

Donate today and transform the life of 200 young girls through vocational training in handcrafts.

 

I am Nishyirembere Donat and I am passionate about girls' education in Rwanda. Through Startoday Ltd, a registered consultancy firm , Visit  https://twitter.com/startodayltd or https://www.facebook.com/StartodayLtd  in collaboration with schools, NGOs and Parents , we identified 200 poor young ladies who dropped out before they finish high school education due to poverty or inability of their families to meet the cost of education. The living conditions of these girls are very critical. Some of them have got children before they got married, others are domestic workers while others are underemployed.


These girls are aged between 14 and 24 years from poor backgrounds that are more brilliants and want to join existing Vocational Training Centers in Networking, Multimedia and Software.


We are now coming to you to seek your donation of any amount. We need to raise  $124,200 USD. These funds will cover fees for vocational training per 1 year, school materials and basic living conditions of selected 200 young ladies. The following is the break down for fees for vocational training per trainee per year.

Type of fees	Cost(USD)/trainee/12months
Registration fee	$14
ID Card	$3
Tuition fee	$300
Insurance for accident	$2
Overalls	$15
Caution money	$15
Medical insurance	$5
Total	$354

The program will start with March 2015. In addition to the vocational skills, young ladies will gain hand-on-skills and the Startoday Ltd will provide them with coaching and networking opportunity when at school and after graduation.

Join us in this campaign. Help us meet the target and to spread out this campaign! We do love to partner with you. Support and/or invite others to know and contribute to the success of this initiative. Share this campaign to your network.

A DAY YOU WON'T FORGET

“Good times are a reminder and a reward for dealing with the difficult and challenging times we all go through. The trick is to celebrate the good times in advance of the difficult times. Always remember, good times await you after the difficult times pass….” - James A. Murphy

The 7th August, a baby boy was born. What a great joy in the family! Three years later, look at the Kid smiling, moving, speaking.... It is amazing! At school age, observe how the Kid socializes!  Now, let us consider the quote from C.JoyBell C. : ''I think that the best thing we can do for our children is to allow them to do things for themselves, allow them to be strong, allow them to experience life on their own terms, allow them to take the subway... let them be better people, let them believe more in themselves.” Doing things on your own give you strengthen to learn, to meet and overcome challenges; to mature and to nurture your curiosity and become more responsible and independent in making decision and acting.

In my teenage, I thought that all I want out of life was : '' Be happy, rich and powerful '', now as I grow up, I realize that nothing is more important than being happy! Be happy and Live happy and Spread happiness! This is the golden rule: Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. - Groucho Marx 

Now the day I am talking about was come, it is a great day, hard to forget! Can you imagined what happened? Wait a little bit I wanna tell you. It was not in Winter nor in Summer! The wind was blowing! What a fantastic day! The day I am talking about is when I discovered that the best feeling in the world is realizing that you're perfectly happy without the thing you thought you needed.

 '' Do you have enough money to celebrate the coming season? Are you planning to get bank loans to finance your great moments? I have good news for you! All you need is less than $100 USD! Celebrate wisely by spending less and being with your family and closer friends.'' STL Team

Many years ago, I used to wait impatiently for the coming of Noel and ''Bonne Annee''. Now, as I am in my thirties, I try to see things differently. By spending your time reading the following observations, you learn how you can save your money from the coming season.! Producers and Sellers are waiting for your money! Let us examine the reasons you shouldn't spend much money this season:

1. Happiness: Many people will tell you that for you to be happy you must have money- a lot of money indeed! The reason is that with it you can buy different goods and services of your choice. More importantly, when you have money you feel stable, safe and secured. To be specific let me tell you that if your joy, peace, happiness, integrity, security depends merely on your wealth, you will inevitably be in trouble because needs are unlimited while means are scare. My advice to you is that you just be happy regardless of your limitations. Your happiness is not in many bottles of bear or wine you will open; it is not in the number of ladies you will sleep with,......   Your joy is in the way you appreciate yourself, understand your emotions and the way you make choices. Learn to do what you love, to be with those are important to you and to spend less.

2. Friendship: Life is meaningful if you are with good people. People you can trust, you can open your mind and heart. However, nothing is more destructive than a poor friend that manipulate you, mislead you, and often profit from you. I don't need to illustrate this because you understand what I mean. My advice is to be wise when choosing friends and companion. Now as we are approaching the great moment, you will receive invitations and certainly you have plans. Know where you spend most of your time and money!

3. Family: Your family is what should come first! The family is the center of everything. Celebrate this seasons with your family. What they need is not money or anything related to it. All your family needs is you. To remember the past, the journey made so far. I know the past is not sweet! But it is a must do_ Tell your kids where you are coming from, what was your greatest challenges and success. Examine together your situation and make plans together and decide on the new year resolutions together! How much do you think this can cost you?

Notice: Remember that after this season, the life continues: The family to look after, the children to take to school, the debt to pay, the project to run among other! Be unique and live differently.

               HAPPY NEW YEAR 2014

In three weeks ahead, we start a New Year 2014. During this important season, I would like to share our experience and the lessons we can draw from the past. As the time passes, things get changed: Some people either get old or die while other get richer or poorer! It is not fair to remind you that. I am very sorry to say. Instead, I would like to make you notice the importance of seasons and to make the best out of it! Be reminded that everything under the sun has its due time. I don't want to take you much time in this!

WHAT RESERVES 2014 FOR YOU?

2014 is not as any other figure you can imagine! This year is very special. I have nominated it as A MANIFEST YEAR! Do you know why? BeforeI tell you why, I would like first to ask a simple question: Have you ever wandered why you are the way you are and why you do things the ways you do it? If yes, that's great. But if not, do not worry this is your time. I asked you this question, not to challenge you but to encourage you lead a very happy and successful life. Remember that if you do not drive your life to your desired destination, they are other certified people waiting to take you where they have already prepared for you! The problem with the last is that you are forced to do things and to behave in a very defined way. Do not make me wrong, I don't say that you stop collaborate or learn from others. Instead, I want you to be responsible for yourself and define clearly what you want to do and how you want to do it in respect of societal norms, values, code of conduct, laws and regulations.

2014:  Dare to dream higher

           Let people know what you want out of life

           Achieve higher

           Be productive and disruptive

            Live happy

    

2014 - A MANIFEST YEAR,  Let your life be like watered garden where you can grow what ever you want. If you want to grow mushrooms or flower you will reap mushrooms or flower! But imagine if you decide to grow '' GOLD'' in your garden! Do not tell me that it is impossible because I believe that everything you can conceive you can also achieve. Tell me, is the garden to determine what to grow or the farmer? whatever is the case, let us all agree on this: There is no yes/no answer to this question because the normal way of life is complex and things are interdependent. If you agree with me, then let us draw the following conclusions:

2014: You can be different and live differently

          You can have what you have ever wanted

           You can surprise yourself

           You can reach the highest level you 've never imagined

2014- A YEAR OF GREAT REALIZATION, Do not try to mislead me, I know this is delicious to everyone. Now, the unique question you might have is how is this possible? You are the one who can best answer to this question. Because you know where you are coming from, where you are and where you want to go. What I have to inform you is that you have the KEY TO YOUR SUCCESS, JOY AND EVERYTHING YOU WANT! The problem is that you don't know when to open and when to close. I am telling you that this is the right time to open up your happiness. If you are still interested try this:

2014: Record anything that comes into your mind

          Do only things that you love to do and do it well

           Build a good network as your assets 

           Remember to surrender to your maker

           Spend less but invest in your talents and future

 2014- A NEW YEAR, Profit from this season to develop a new attitude and habit. This is the season to break down all barriers that you used to face. Stop blaming others! Stop believing in misfortune! Stop living as if you going to die tomorrow! Plan ahead your activities, prioritize your efforts, and be positive about yourself.

2014: YOU DESERVE THE BEST, Success do not depend on age, sex, skin color, origin, etc. Success depends on you commitment to make it happen. Your effort and hardworking towards a well defined task. Who do you think is in the right way to assign you a given task? I would regret if you play a passive role in this process. KNOW YOURSELF and BE YOURSELF!

           
          

8 Reasons Keeping a Journal Can Help You Reach Your Goals

8 Reasons Keeping a Journal Can Help You Reach Your Goals

By Joshua Becker



“Always carry a notebook. And I mean always. The short-term memory only retains information for three minutes; unless it is committed to paper you can lose an idea for ever.” - Will Self
Our decision to become minimalist was intentional. It was based on the realization that our possessions were distracting us from things in life that were more important. Our possessions were stealing too much of our money, time, energy, and focus. And as a result, we decided to get rid of everything we didn’t need or love to focus on our greatest passions.
On the other hand, this on-line journal of our journey into minimalism was not intentional. Originally, the Becoming Minimalist website began as simply a humble means to inform our extended family of our goals. But somewhere along the way, it became an important piece in helping us achieve them.
Since then, I have used the discipline of keeping a journal to assist me in the pursuit of other life goals as well. And I have come to clearly recognize and appreciate its importance.

Benefits of Keeping a Journal

Consider these 8 ways keeping a journal can help us reach our goals:
1. Keeping a journal requires us to write out our goals. The importance of committing our desires to paper cannot be overstated. It is a simple process, but it pays great dividends. Writing out our goals provides the opportunity to articulate them clearly and makes their achievement appear closer.
2. A journal serves as a permanent record of our progress. Success can be quickly forgotten. And when it is, it becomes easy to get frustrated with our pursuit. As with any pursuit, there are times we may feel like we have not accomplished anything despite all the invested effort and energy. During those moments, it is helpful to look back and be reminded of our past successes.
3. Writing requires us to think through the why’s and the how’s. When we sit down behind a blank computer screen or sheet of paper and begin to write out what we accomplished during the day, we are forced to think through our process on a deeper level. The discipline forces us to answer the difficult questions of “why,” “how,” or “why not?” The answers to these questions are not just helpful as we move forward to repeat successes and avoid mistakes, they can be therapeutic as well.
4. A journal proves we have solved problems in the past. Whether we are chasing a physical goal (26.2 miles), a career goal (start my own business), or a personal goal (become a better father), not every step in our pursuit is going to be easy… goals worth pursuing never are. At some point, we will be required to overcome adversity. But we will. And the next time we face it, we’ll find motivation and strength in our written record of overcoming it in the past.
5. Keeping a journal naturally reminds us to articulate next steps. It is difficult to look back without also looking forward. As a result, when we journal, we naturally begin to look forward. And the next step becomes easier to see.
6. Writing reminds us to think beyond the obvious. Always looking for “material to journal” has caused me to see the value of simplicity and minimalism in areas I would not normally have seen it ? whether it be an article in the newspaper, an advertisement on television, or a conversation with a friend. Likewise, writing causes us to become more intentional in any pursuit ? and to find inspiration beyond the obvious places right in front of us.
7. Even a private journal provides accountability. As we script our journey, we find accountability ? not to the written word, but to ourselves. Our past success and perseverance compels us forward. We can see how far we’ve come, how much we have left to accomplish, and why giving up would be foolish.
8. A written account allows our story to inspire others. Our journal is our story. It is our account of moving from Point A to Point B. And rightly shared, it can inspire others to do the same.

Getting Started.

• Find a form that is comfortable for you. A journal should work for you ? not the other way around. You may feel most comfortable with a notebook, a computer processor, a website, or anon-line writing app. Find a form that fits your personality and lifestyle. And embrace it.
• Commit to writing every day. The intention of sitting to write every day will compel your mind to manufacture and recognize progress. It is a bold plan. And you’ll likely miss days. But don’t let that stop you. Commit again to write the next day.
• Care more about substance and less about style. Write for yourself, not for others. As you do, write with the truest goal of putting onto paper your thoughts and action. Don’t worry about spelling and grammar if those things tend to bog you down. Your goal is not to get an “A.” Your goal is to articulate progress.
• Don’t be motivated by length. There are some days where you’ll be motivated to write much. Others days, only a little.
• Recognize our need. You story is important and is meant to be shared. It may be unique to you, but we desperately need to read it. Make sure we can.
