I have started this story with – Cool Chic going through her wicked wardrobe, to look and feel fantastic because this is exactly what you need to do. And this work needs to start happening at the beginning of your favorite season. You need to start going through your wardrobe then, as this will be the time when you are feeling fantastic already (remember it’s your favorite season), so getting dressed won’t be a disaster. But if getting dressed is taking a toll on your mental health, simply book a session with me, and I will help you find your four so you learn how to sort that out.
Go through everything
So where do you start? With your undergarments (I am talking underwear, and a bra) as these are items of clothing that you wear every day. With the underwear, you want to know that you have enough. And by enough, wait for it, more than a week’s worth. Yes, you heard me right. You don’t want to be caught short. Next, you want to look at your pajamas. The reason that you are going through your wardrobe in this way, is for the simple reason, that your mental health along with your ability to live your life day to day, is important, and this is how you do it.
Engaging with life as only you know it
Some of the ways clothes can be used to connect
- To create a cube of clothing when going on holiday that helps them to feel good every single day.
- To keep them on track to success, step by step, space by space.
- To launch a business, by being in the right outfit at the right time
- To create a structured wardrobe for your wellbeing
- Build a basket of go to clothes for day to day wear.
- Expand your wardrobe for all of your wonderful moments
- To create a higher sense of self worth and self confidence that leads to capable and connected.
Engaging with life as only you know it
Some of the ways clothes can be used to connect
Create a cube of clothing when going on holiday that helps you to feel good every single day – Dresses, skirts, swimwear, special towels, and accessories. Have all of these on standby, so that you can easily enjoy the sunshine.
To keep you on track to success, step by step, space by space – One of my favorite pieces of clothing, are my tracksuit pants, because of the comfortability. When I need to stay on track, I wear my track pants. Think about what you like to wear.
To operate a business, by being in the right outfit at the right time – throughout the day, I might wear a few different outfits, depending on what it is that I am doing, where I am going, and who I am spending my time with if anyone. To constantly feel cool, you have to be wearing the right clothes, right? Of course, you do.
To create a structured wardrobe, for your well-being – if there is one thing I recommend, that is a massage, but even this requires special clothes that allows and prepares your mind and body to relax.
Build a basket of go-to clothes for day-to-day wear – so as my favorite season starts to come, I always make sure to have a few different items that inspire me to live a good life, day to day.
Expand your wardrobe for all of your wonderful moments – From cardigans to jackets, it is all about feeling good and feeling cool, so that smiling and laughing come easy to you. You feel good on the inside.
To create a higher sense of self-worth and self-confidence that leads to capable and connected – It comes down to this when you know yourself, (and you can learn how I do this in my place for people,) understanding your wants and needs becomes easy to achieve. The end result, you know and are able – to focus, flow, and have fun. With a goal and a guide, to show you how it is done.

Track your thoughts through nature, the trees, with a walk and talk, with thinking time and talk about what matters to you
Your mental health, if not cared for properly, can affect every other area of your life. However, by creating and sticking to a routine, that you can practice on repeat, and daily, you will discover how easy it can be to track your thoughts.
You start with food
and fluid
hit the footpath
Then you work on your fitness
and after this, you will feel fantastic
When your mindset is right, and with the movements that need to be taken, such as all of the factors above, you can track, trace and continue with success your “thinking time”.

Being a poet – It’s poetry for people, a podcast, different poems personally handwritten and then read out to you about situations that affect mental health
Tell me, do you love funny stuff? Me to, and here is why? It is about personality, while putting words together, that end up rhyming, and talk about life and situations that affect all of us. How we deal with these things.
Thoughts: We all have thoughts. And we all have feelings. Being a poet, is putting those thoughts down on paper and making something out of them.
Words: It’s the words that make the poem. And the words are what describe what has happened for the poet. In this case and others you may read on this site, are about my experiences that I am now sharing with you.
Through a podcast – poetry for people – poems, personally handwritten and read, for you, to help you get through.
Literacy: This is one way of learning about and working with the English language. The English language is written, ready and spoken in few different countries around the world. So it makes sense to know and be able with it.
Rhyme: If you listen carefully to some songs on the radio, there is rhythm and rhyme. You, as the listener know that you relate to the words being sung and the words are catchy, because they rhyme. It is the same with poetry. And poetry for people is about just that. Helping people get through their day by hearing that they may be able to relate to, that will make them laugh.

Develop personally, with steps and strategic flow.
In this post, I talk about what it means to learn in steps, and why it is important.
I am going to use the content that I will talk to you about and teach you, so I will start with where I started , cleaning because that is how I got here.
So, let us start with what it means to learn in steps.
To learn means to acquire or gather information that you may not have already known before. The know of Knowing&ability is about how in steps. This is a deep dive into what I do, that makes me feel good. The ability means to flow and achieve.
Now I need to point out here, about my experiences with education, that I did not learn much, because I did not engage and I did not evolve. Putting myself out there to help others (the first time was hard because that frightened little girl, who was scared she would not learn – but instead fail, was out) through sharing how I could help, looking back, I think is a courageous thing to do, and I will tell you why.
Even in this day and age, people can be mean when you share. I know this is controversial, but my thinking on that is if you need to be mean, keep that thought in your head, and get some counseling on why you need to be mean? Where have you learned this behavior? Keep your mouth shut, if you have nothing nice to say, as you will only hurt or annoy someone. If you are the one being bullied if you feel an argument or an attack of some kind will arise, again keep your mouth shut.
So why is learning in steps important?
The last part is why learning in steps is important. You have to mentally and emotionally evolve, and work things out. Do I go there again or not? And so is the next part. It is about doing again, or not, through your knowing&ability. That is your knowing&ability. So, keep reading.
This brings me to the point of learning, in steps. To see how each piece of content is received, by the student. Back then it was me. It still is me, but it is also now about you too. And by received, I mean “Do you know what I am talking about? A question that goes with that, is how will you know? My answer, is my stories, and within that, my steps and strategic flow.
Know and be able on repeat, and with steps.
Much love, Knowing&Ability xo

How many points for discussion, can you jot down in pieces about your weekend?
It is Monday morning, the start of the week, and that means, going to work. Now it is important to note here, that work means different things to different people, so I am not going to generalise that word “work”. What I am going to say is that taking time out between weeks is a must for mental and emotional well being. And that might also look different for everyone. Engagement with yourself is a must for good mental health.
Planning
Just like a Teacher needs to plan every single detail of a curriculum, starting with the first lesson, so to, is planning your weekend, so that you feel that you have had a weekend. This mind fullness is for the sake of yourself and for your mental health. And this may mean, leaving work where it is – at work. Phone calls, people to see and speak too, and places to go to, need to be planned for so that attention can be given to these tasks, during the week, for accomplishment and for acceleration of being accomplished and done, prior to going into the next week. You see, when a Teacher plans, the planning has to be done, for the amount of weeks that there are with each term. And that is up to 4 terms with up to 10 weeks of teaching and learning to happen.
Picture (and visualise)
Can you do that? Picture and visualise?. The when, where, how and why of what you will do, for your “down time”. Your ability to do this on a Sunday before the next Sunday, can be a set as a series of scheduled tasks you set yourself to complete before this time comes along. And this can be achieved, whether you work on your own terms (easier if you do) or whether you work for someone else (especially important, if you do).
Pursue
So, about the visualising. The picture above, as you can see, is of a gate. This gate is in a place in Indonesia. And, from what I was told, as to why I took the picture, because I thought it would be perfect, to use for my work, is through the gate you may be able to see, and on the other side of what you can see in the picture, is a garden. You see, what I learned, from being there a few years ago, the locals engage in a lot of worshipping, on just about every day of the week. The locals go in, through the gate, and into the garden and worship. This, I thought would be perfect to talk about when it comes to gaining knowledge and then being able “through the pursuit of a goal”, behind the gate through talking about it. As in “whats yours”?
Pleased
Mental health is now becoming a talking point globally, through everyone, everywhere. For me, this comes down to how you feel, what that looks like, can you describe it? And can you engage in something that helps to you evolve as a person who is pleased what they pursued? A past time, if you will. A place or people to see – to SPEAK to, and discuss what you are up to or what you have done?
To conclude:
Points, for discussion. Remind yourself of any fun that you had leading into and over the weekend. Stay with all of the feelings, whatever they may be about the what you did, who with? When. why and how. And you capture all of this good stuff, by jotting it down, in pieces, for the days when your mental health, is not so healthy.
