The Light

It appears that too many folks have been desperately trying to keep their sanity over the past few weeks. I think it is important that we acknowledge the issues at hand concerning race, social class, workforce environment, illness, and so on. However, we must not manifest more negativity into our lives. At some point we gotta unplug or disconnect temporarily so we can tackle things with the right approach. So… let’s continue with this happy trail (no pun) from last week. Time to focus on things that are going in the right direction. ALL WINS COUNT!!!! Even when I’m going through something.. I always manage to channel that energy into something positive. Pondering on things out of your control is rough. Find something positive…  otherwise life is going to continue to mop the floor with you, Respectfully. In all my years of living… things never got easier but gradually more complex. Well damn!!! When can I catch a break??? The truth is… you don’t catch a break! Why not? Bc you never taught yourself to look at the positive things in front of you. This random guy at a bar told me this years back… “You never gain until you appreciate what you already have readily in front of you”…. that comment never left me. I challenge you guys to process that as well. It took one simple comment from a random person to connect the dots. Thank you for listening to my unrelenting TED talk! Enjoy the wk ✌🏾

Gratitude x Awareness

Today is about finding happiness. Have you ever created a list of accomplished goals? If not, I recommend that you make a list of gratitude. Something to be proud about, especially when things may seem a little dim within your own space currently. I’ve tried it a few months ago and it amazes me every time I look at it. This can’t be me… I didn’t do that, did I? It’s time to show and prove man.. Time to take things to the next level with everything we choose to involve ourselves with… You have a place on this 🌎 as long as them eyelids aren’t permanently closed. Seriously… Write out that list to put yourself at peace for a few minutes. Work on building awareness of yourself as well as others that mean the world to you. Enjoy the wk ✌🏾

Investing in People

If you looking down,  you not concerned with looking up. That’s a problem.  This life is a marathon and you will need all the help you can possibly get. What is the best help/assistance anyone can get in the world? Someone that is displaying vulnerability or you coached in a way. Who knows??? they might find better solutions for you to win more as time goes on! You should anticipate that anyways if you were smart. With that mentality… how do I not pull up my fellow brother or sister to eat at the same table I eat. I’m not saying I will cloth them or provide for them long term. What I’m saying is… if both parties want more out of life and believe in reciprocity… We all can eat together! Too many ppl burn unnecessary bridges & it shows. You live long enough, it will happen to ya. I wish you well ✌🏾

Precautions on being Dumbfounded

When you think about it, there are only 3 stages of life… Either you’re headed into a storm, currently in a storm, or just came out of a storm. Take that piece of information and interpret it however you may like. You take things for granted until reality hits and things shift instantly. We gamble everyday in hopes of making our life situations better. Make sure you make moves that will impact things long term and not short term. We lose on the short term gambles 100% of the time. Use strategy in how you want to move. If others are involved… don’t hesitate to communicate your vision at a high level otherwise progressing might backfire. We will not get through life unscathed under any circumstances. That is why you have to give it your BEST shot. There are no mulligans (redo) so be careful with what you choose to do.
