Unstoppable

Today is about being Unstoppable.

I am believer in positive thinking. You can manifest anything if you just believe.

We are living in some weird times. They are some people who are experiencing the best times in their life and enjoying the fruits of their labor. Everything is great.

And then there are people like me who are grindin. That every day there is a different type of struggle.

Every time you go up one level, the problems become complex and less easier to solve. And the Hate goes up as well.

And they are things that cannot discuss with everyone and risk is greater for all involved.
I am no longer in minor leagues; I am in the major leagues with a lot danger lurking around every decision.

This is when your Faith is essential. You must transform yourself into being Unstoppable.
An unstoppable person is someone doesn’t falter in the face of adversity. A person will get knocked down millions of times and will continue to fight.

A person that can change tactics in order to achieve their goals. A person that is willing to make sacrifices in order get the next level.

A person that has an uncompromising spirit and a general hunger to succeed.

The requirements to become unstoppable: Faith in yourself and a direct lifeline to God.
The only person you can really depend on to constantly uplift you is God. Everyone else is human and bound to fail you at least once.

Know inside you are larger than the circumstances around you and that God will give you favor that help you reach that next level.

God is such an awesome God that protect from enemies that you don’t even know about. These enemies aka haters are double agents. They have friend/family like characteristics but they don’t have your best interests at heart.

Be careful who you share your goals with; you never know their secret motives. Some just have one simple motive; to make sure you never reach your full potential. This can be friends and family. No more is immune.

So on this Sunny Friday: Believe in yourself and become Unstoppable. Once you believe and have Faith in yourself; you will have ability to move mountains.

Direction

Today is about having direction.

Even though I am girly girl; I have some masculine tendencies. My dad raised me like the son he never had. LOL :)

So I absolutely hate asking for directions. I have been hours late for events because I was too stubborn to ask for directions.

I always believe I am close to my destination and that I can figure it out. I also feel that actually asking for direction is giving up in a way.

I believe there are many Believers are stubborn with our relationship with God.

We believe that we are intelligent enough to figure out life all by ourselves and giving our situations to God is giving up in a way.

Faith has nothing to do with intelligence. If you allow your intelligence to get in way; you will never have the close relationship with God that we all crave.

God wants all the glory and wants you be a testimony to others. If He allows you to believe that you did it ; you would take all the credit for yourself and your abilities.


Faith is something that cannot be conceptualized with just intelligence alone. Faith works in mysterious ways that cannot always be quantifiable by reason which is the main component of intelligence.

Faith does require two items: belief and letting of your control. You must belief that God can do all things and you must step out of the way so God can do it.

This must be done in order to receive the blessings that God has for your life and to step into your destiny.


Allow your faith to be your GPS for God. Allow it guide your path. It will never fail you. *like Mapquest LOL!*

Blessing the in midst of disappointment

Today is blessing the in midst of disappointment.

When I was in college, I first started off at Howard University and then transferred to Spelman College due to homesickness. I am an Atlanta girl to my heart :)

Now I have already dreamed of being AKA despite the fact my father ‘s insistence of being a Delta. But I knew when I transferred that competition was stiff.

I was naturally disappointed when I didn’t make line at Spelman.

People always ask me now if I would pledge in Graduate Chapter. My answer is no. Not because of hate or being salty. I think it would change me as a person.

Being a Spelman woman, I am already part of rich legacy that has sustained all these years.
During certain times in life, you will experience disappointment. Some times there are things that we want are not aligned with God’s will.

I believe that I am better person without making line. If I would gotten what I wanted; I would not have strong enough to deal with some other storms in my life.

Not to mention that I would have been complete out of control and drunk with power. I would have been type that would have worn some pink and green every day :)

I had a lot of maturing to do and I did not have right attitude that would have been essential. God kept me for making dumb mistakes by taking my ego down a notch. And I needed it :)

Despite not making line, I made lifelong friends through the process. As transfer student, I made a majority of my friends (7 of them) during that process

While none of us made line, we have experience that binds us together for a lifetime :)

There are few times in your life that you get an opportunity to become put on a asymmetrical wig and become Salt n Pepa for a hour. LOL!! We have lifelong memories that we still giggle about :)

Sometimes there is a blessing during a disappointment. I believed that my blessing would be making line but my blessing was friendships that were created.

God knows what is best for you. Sometimes God will take away opportunities that you cannot handle that may not be in your best interests.

While it might be disappointing, after time passes you will realize how much those disappointments shapes you into the person you are today.

Thank the Lord that we are all more than what we used to be :)

So on this cloudy Tuesday, stay optimistic even during your disappointment. You never know what blessing is wrapped into it.

Although the world is full of suffering, it is full also of the overcoming of it.

Black Women being so Single later in life

Today instead of my inspiration tweet, I will speak on this whole issue why so many Black Women are Single.

There are other races with similar issues as well such Korean men but it is not as publicized.

This is rare so here is my take. Finding a man is similar to getting the getting the exclusive Birkin Bag regardless of race.

The "Birkin" bag is a hand-built purse from Hermès that start at $6,500. They are distributed to Hermès boutiques on unpredictable schedules and limited quantities.

A Whole Sex in the City Episode was dedicated to it. I will always covet an Birkin Bag that way I covet someday getting married.

Most woman most would love a Birkin Bag. They would go about getting one in 2 different ways:

• Some woman will get an imitation Birkin Bag and rock it like its real thing. It doesn’t have special amenities that Birkin Bag. It also doesn’t last as long. And you know you frontin and pretending that its real :)
• Then there are the some women will save their money for years until they afford one. Then they will treat themselves to one.

The way you go about obtaining a Birkin Bag is the way you date.

Now I have tried a couple of “imitations” but they only made me want “real” one more. The Imitation have been so good that I didn’t even really if it wasn’t real or not. But they never lasted which is illustrated they were not “real”

I am willing to wait for a “Real” Birkin Bag and treat myself.

Now I have no judgment on whether you want entertainment instead of true love (imitation bag vs real bag). But I do have one request: Just pick something :)

I believe at times that women are so picky that we make no choice at all and waste a lot of time. Enjoy life; don’t limit the possibilities in your life right now. Have fun during the process.

#NEWSFLASH# Every man is not marriage material and shouldn’t not be treated as such.

When a man is ready to settle down; he should be convincing you. Not the other way around.
When He is ready; he will contact you. We don’t give men enough credit. When you they want something they know how go after it. Make him get aligned with God and chase YOU.

We as women make situations complicated when its not. Either they are being serious or entertainment themselves. Pure and Simple.

It took me a long time personally to get this. Now instead of showing my interest and coming at dudes hard, I now wait to see what they are going to do. Life has been SO much better once I changed my perspective.

I am not that romantic but I am passionate about what about I care about. Guys must now show me their passionate side. Its showtime :)

If a man really wants me; he must be willing to show me AND BE WILLING TO COURT ME. I am done proving myself. My reputation speaks for itself. Either you want me or you don’t.

Instead acting like a man; I am now the true lady that God and Spelman wanted me to be. An lady allows a man to lead the relationship. This cuts out the posers , imitators of love and serial dates.

If doesn’t want to put in the work to keep and maintain you. It is on the next one :)

Men are buses; another one will come. Now the bus might break down or be hours off schedule; but it will come. Just be patient.

Confirmation

Today is about Confirmation .

On importance items , confirmation is necessary. I always make sure I have confirmation meetings, hair appointments even dates.

Webster’s Dictionary defines confirmation is something that supports, validates, or verifies something else. Confirmation is particularly important in the Christian world.

God will send a dream, a word that is so radical that you afraid to share it with others. It is so amazing that you wonder if God spoke to you or did you dream it?

That is when attending Church is key. And sometimes it is minister who can give the confirmation and sometimes others in the church.

God will provide you with the confirmation you need in a way that you would understand. I can
remember when I was making the decision to become an entrepreneur, I needed confirmation.

I was sick of working for other people and not having control over my life. God had spoke to me but I was afraid to jump out on faith.

So I remember that God spoke to me in two ways: the pastor gave a Word to spoke directly to me. Then when I was leaving the church in the parking lot, I dropped my bible and was picking it up, a older woman was standing in front of me. Then she said to me “ I know you are afraid but trust him. No matter God will always protect you”. She gave me a hug which is common at church. I looked with so much wonder; I couldn’t believe it.

So on this Sunny Sunday: Spend a little time with God in prayer and then seek confirmation. He will provide the confirmation needed in the most amazing ways. Hey this could be the confirmation for some of you 

Never stop believing  What God has for you is for you. Be the Catalyst for Change :)

Judgment

Today is about judgment.

So it coming up on crunch time for those training for Peachtree Road Race and there are runners everywhere in downtown Atlanta training.

I am an new runner, so I still remember when I saw people running down the street panting looking like they were on death’s door thinking “I don’t get it”.

When I see a runner like that first thought now is wow, I wonder where they are running from.
Now as I runner, I clearly understand the running about your endurance and perseverance. It throws all vanity out of the runner and gives you tremendous amount of discipline.

Show me a runner and I will show you someone that is great discipline and ability to focus. It also has a calming effect and helps you think clearly.

Clarity is essential to hear from God.

Being a runner is similar to being an Christian. We are all out here running this race of life. We are not always racing against each other but rather toward a higher calling.

So when you see a pessimistic, hateful , backsliding mean spirited Christian, don’t judge. You have now idea where they are running from. You may have caught them in low endurance or weak moment.

Even the best runners catch a cramp at some point. :)

So on rainy Saturday, don’t be so quick to judge. You don’t know the level of endurance it is taking on someone’s Christian walk. Pray for their strength and move on.

When you judge others; the same harshness you bestow can be turned onto you . Be the Catalyst for Change :)

Being in our Little World

Today is about being in our little world

With economic downturn, it seems there are two types of people in the world (1) people maintaining their success and (2) those struggling to get ahead.

Times like this often times bring out the worst in people. We have seen more random acts of hatefulness increasing each day.

I believe the biggest one is neglect. Everyone is struggling with something right now so it is easy to become consumed with your own life.

But this is where your breakthrough occurs. God wants us to manifest his love on a everyday level.

If you want God to bless you, be a blessing to someone else.

You can bless people in various ways. It is not about money. It is about providing the support that is needed. Your blessing can be phone call, kind words or an listening ear.

When you can think about others while in the midst of your own struggles your blessings can be double or even triple.

So on this Sunny Friday, consider everyone feelings and attempt be a blessing for at least one person per day.

It can enrich your life in ways you never thought were possible. Be the Catalyst for Change :)
