I have said it once and I will say it again: life is full of lessons if you will take the time to listen and are willing to be taught. Resurrection Sunday, right before church, I tripped over a package and fell on my knees. The fall was awkward: typically I have time to catch myself but this was one…

Yeah, it’s been a minute since I’ve done a good old fashion blogpost so . . . why not come back in rare form with this one?!!Although both images were released today, I can tell you which one will probably receive more coverage. Unfortunately, this is indicative of the society we live in and one we partially created. All I…

st SellingCall it telepathy or understanding people but I felt a “tell us more” in your spirit when it comes to today’s motivational picture post. Well, I am all too willing to oblige :o)!This concept is the same as being right vs. righteous; if you understand that paradigm then you understand why life is too short to exhaust your time proving you are…

This is my truth: I won’t get into all the particulars but, to this day, this employer has no idea the positive impact its denial had on my life (and the lives of others as a result). Sometimes you need a NO to propel you: a person’s No often tells you how they measure your worth and how much they are willing to invest…

That friend had told him that he…

Disclaimer (and I’m laying down my MBA for this post):  I am a young old head: young enough to not be considered old but raised “old school” so the “old mind” shows itself. Therefore, the old head side feels pretty hip using a recent slang term “thirsty”; sometimes slang is just necessary. Back to the point of this article:Are you a thirsty entrepreneur? The slang term thirsty is…

Three kinds of people that made your life better in 2015 (that you don’t necessarily need to keep in 2016):I am a reflective person—a New Year has nothing to do with it; I just believe that, as we grow in various areas of lives, there is a constant need for reevaluation. When I woke up today, I thanked God for…

We are almost at my favorite time of the year (sarcasm): gyms filled to the rafters, people carrying long list of New Year resolutions and cheerleaders with pom-poms cheering: “You can do it”! Sadly, many will soon return to the same old habits and failures of 2015.That last sentence is what many of you fear but this message is not…
