Nothing Just Happens!

Think about your life. As a human being that has lived life past the teen age years and most certainly past your roaring 20's and into what I call the get real years of your 30's, you have in no uncertain terms experienced the ups and the downs of life. There is nothing in life that is guaranteed but that we all will be born and we will all die, that is it, that is all! What we do in between those two life events determine's how we will all be remembered by from all those individuals we call associates, business partners, coworkers, husbands, wives, mother and father, son's and daughter's.

You may be wondering if anyone knows you exist, or even God for that matter? The answer is all you have to do is surrender your life and all your problems to God. You have to say to God I do not understand why I am going through the tests of life, but God I know you do. I have come to understand this that God has a plan for you life that is beyond your finite understanding. You have to know that whatever life you have dreamed of, God has a bigger dream for your life than you could ever imagine. The key to living the life God wants for you is found by asking: God, What Would You Have Me Do?

You may be feeling like you are running out of time. Ask yourself these questions: What am I going to do with the time I have left? How am I going to re-position every aspect of my life? To answer both questions in the simplest of terms, it all starts with your thinking. Self Efficacy goes a long way into helping you hurdle the worst of times in your life by believing that you can do anything you put your mind to do. Second is your ability not to succumb to the urge to quit. You cannot quit on yourself most importantly your dream.

As you are reading this, you have to know that we are all running the same race. You and I are trying to reach the same finish line. You and I are trying to accomplish the same goals. You and I are trying to reach the same mountain top. The only thing that separates you from the next person is: How bad you want to win the race? How bad you want the best life possible? How bad you want to accomplish your individual goals? How bad you want to reach the pinnacle of success? Eric Thomas said it best if you want anything in life as bad as you want to breathe then it will be yours.

You have to know that everything that happens good or bad in your life is a result of the choices that we make. What I have found to be true is that with all that we ever want to achieve and become in our lives. All the riches and success that we want to achieve none of that is gifted to us. It All Comes Down To Working Hard To Get Everything You Want In Life!  There will be no gift wrapped box filled with the dream cars and dream homes that we want in life. There will not be a genie in a bottle that we will find in a remote part of the individual cities we live in that we can rub and get the 3 most ideal wishes that we can dream up.

Finally I Leave You With This: Experience will purge any weakness and fear, you have to know beyond a shadow of a doubt you can get through anything. You Must Be Committed To Not Just Surviving But Overcoming Any Of Life's Trials!

We Will Overcome!

Let me start by saying that this post does not come from a point of anger but from being frustrated with the way my people are treated as a whole in this country. I will state the obvious by saying that we are in tumultuous times in America. As a nation we are in complete and utter disarray, Why? You have to be completely off the grid not to realize that our leadership is the worst it has ever been and by voting Donald Trump into office we have wiped out lets say 50 years of advancement in our country.  As a nation and those persons who are in control are guilty of turning a blind eye to what we call for the lack a better phrase "social injustices" to Africans in America since the year 1619 in Jamestown, Virginia. I  am not laying or placing all the blame for the problems that exist in the United States on Donald Trump, he is just an example of all the things still wrong with our nation. The problems of bigotry, classism, and racism have and will exist in our nation until pe...

Give Thanks To The New You!

There is an important lesson that everyone will have to learn. Bad things happen to very good people. Furthermore bad things will come! There will be a time in your life that you will find that you will be fighting for your very existence. There will be a time where you will question your very existence. There will be a time where you want to give up. There will be a time where you do not see the light at the end of the tunnel. There will be a time in your life when you question if there is a God. There will be a time when you ask the question: Why is this happening to me, God? There will be a time when you almost lose the faith. There will be a time when you wonder how much more can I take? There will be a time when you say to yourself: Why Bother? You have to know that everything we go through has to be met with this thinking in our mind: What lesson is God trying to teach me? What is the purpose of this difficult time in my life? Will I come out on the other side of this trying ...

Your Calling: Will You Say Yes?

When a man misses what he feels to be his calling, what are the lingering effects? I was talking to a co-worker of mine and I brought up the fact that he looked lost. My co-worker replied that it is so funny you feel that way, because I do feel that way. I had this perfect life planned out in my mind where I would play college football and that would translate into me being drafted to the NFL and playing wide receiver and living out days as the best wide receiver in the history of the NFL. I dreamed of buying my mother a home on the beach, having a nice home for myself, an extensive amount of money in the bank and a beautiful wife and beautiful children. My calling or dream has been deferred due to the severe leg injury I sustained playing football in college and now I do not know what I am doing. I do now know whether I am coming or going. I have no 1 year, 5 year, or 10 year plan in place for my life. I have no one I can talk to, I have no one I can tell my story to. All I can do ...
