This is such thought provoking words around protecting your energy, valuing yourself and own mental health…
A good read… BRUTAL words from actor ANTHONY HOPKINS
Let go of the people who are not ready to love you.
It is the hardest thing you'll have to do in your life and it will be the most important thing.
Stop having difficult conversations with people who don't want to change.
Stop showing up for people who aren't interested in your presence.
I know your instinct is to do whatever it takes to gain the appreciation of the people around you, but it's an impulse that robs your time, energy, mental and physical health.
When you start fighting for a life of joy, interest and commitment, not everyone will be willing to follow you there.
It doesn't mean you have to change who you are, it means you have to let go of people who are not ready to be with you.
If you are excluded, offended, forgotten or ignored by the people you give your time to, you are not doing yourself a favor by continuing to offer them your energy and life.
Truth is, you ain't for everyone and not everyone is for you.
This is what makes it so special about meeting people you have friendship or love with.
You will know the value of it because you have experienced what it isn't.
There are billions of people on this planet and many of them will find them on your level of interest and commitment.
If you stop showing up, maybe they won't look for you.
When you stop trying, the relationship ends.
If you stop texting, your phone might stay dark for weeks.
It doesn't mean you ruined the relationship, it's just that the only thing that kept it going was the energy you only gave to keep it.
This is not love, this is connection.
It's giving a chance to those who didn't deserve it!
You deserve much more.
The most valuable thing you own in your life is your time and energy because both are limited.
The people and things you give your time and energy to will define your existence.
When you realize this, you start to understand why you are so anxious about spending time with people, activities, or spaces that don't suit you or shouldn't be around you.
You will start to realize that the most important thing you can do for yourself and everyone around you is to protect your energy more fiercely than anything else.
Make your life a safe haven where only people who are "compatible" with you are allowed.
You're not responsible for saving someone.
It’s not your responsibility to convince them to do better.
It’s not your job to exist for people and give them your life!
You deserve real friendships, real commitment and a full love with healthy wealthy people.
Choosing to distance yourself from toxic people will give you the love, appreciation, happiness and protection you deserve. Copied from the internet.

@ADvTECHGroup please can you connect me via DM to the CFO - Didier Oesch? We’re having issues to get paid for an event we delivered in Feb for Trinityhouse Glenvista. Although fin people are trying to help every week new form or issue. As small business massive impact on cashflow
@ADvTECHGroup urgently connect me with Didier Oesch - now PO numbers are needed for process to move forward. These are all internal issues preventing payment 60 days plus… we delivered on our commitments in Feb already…no one understands that this is AdvTECH issues not ours
Replying to @pierredevos
@pierredevos given the collapse of local government service delivery - under what circumstances, if any can a metro hold new local elections? There are guidelines for when a national election must be held, outside normal timelines. Anything similar for local government?
@pierredevos if metros are to big and therefore management and prevention of corruption to difficult to achieve - what legislative changes will be required to disaggregate metros and revert to small, more manageable municipal local service delivery zones?
Are your merchant services back up? Our customers are frustrated in not being able to pay for their meals - what is the expected restoration time?
Replying to @StandardBankZA
Unfortunately your SnapScan solution also fails. As a merchant is very difficult to offer client alternative payment methods if they do to have cash, customers very upset with us as the business because of this outage
Any bank prepared to understand our vision and growth plans? It’s an integrated food truck, bakery, ice cream, candy floss manufacturing and distribution business in Alberton and restaurant, nursery and garden service. Currently R6m t/o growing to R8m and 55 people employed.
@CapitecBankSA @AfricanBank @Nedbank @FNBSA @Discovery_SA will any of you be interested to engage on the above business? Looking to move the relationship from @StandardBankZA

Replying to @BuildersSA
@BuildersSA in my humble opinion the process to buy a wood board and have it cut to a simple size of 1,7x1,5 surely can not take 30min just to have a cutting sheet generated? Your processes are not in the interest of efficiency...
@BuildersSA and then it doesn’t work after 30min as your system won’t print the cutting sheet. It’s a small value transaction that surely must be loosing you money on the margin in the inefficiency and negative client experience?
Replying to @wendyknowler
@wendyknowler - we had to cancel booked and paid flights on @lufthansa in March this year as COVID19 risks increased. We were told it could take 8-12 weeks for refund. This timeframe passed no refund. We’ve received feedback 2 weeks ago that it can take another 8-12 weeks.
There is no commitment to resolution or indication of when this will be resolved. What are our options and does the Consumer Protection Act provide any legal support to us? I’ve even contact the German Ambassador @AmbSchaefer but have not heard back from him.
Another day, more tears and frustration, who can help us to restore @TelkomZA service if we can’t talk to them? 6 days > 40 people? @LFS_Greenergy @brucebusiness @carteblanchetv @EmmaSadleir @UlrichJvV please retweet to help or refer with Telkom Executive details, please! 🙏🙏🙏
It’s heartbreaking to hear the impact for 5 days, > 30 people spoken in Telkom and no resolution. I don’t know how to support @LFS_Greenergy anymore. If Twitter can please connect us to a Telkom Executive - please, help.@TelkomZA @brucebusiness @art2gee @louisvonz
