What happens when you have nothing left? Who do you go to when no one seems to be around? How do you make it another day, pushing forward when you have no push left? How often have you asked yourself these very questions? Wondering where your strength is coming from when you feel like you just have nothing left to give. That strength comes from a source greater than ourselves. It also comes from a place from within and it's a place we often go to when we have nothing and no one else to draw from. It is in our darkest moments that we find our deepest strength. It is when we find out what our greatest fears are, while realizing and understanding our greatest strengths as well.
Life can throw us curveball after curveball and then hit us with a fastball. The only thing that matters is that we step up to the plate each and every time and give it our best swing. No matter if we strike out, get hit with the ball, or get thrown nothing but balls... We must continue to show up each and every time. We cannot continue to be afraid of our own potential and most importantly, we cannot be afraid of life. No one ever said life would be easy, however I guarantee it will be worth it. It will be filled with triumphs and tribulations, abundance and lack, joy and pain, and so many other things and each thing will provide a valuable lesson and a blessing all at the same time.
We must ALL learn how to sit still at times and allow the beauties and plans of life unfold. Often times, we need to sit still so that we can enjoy the fruits of our labor, so that we can hear the message and see the plan. To gain understanding and knowledge. To know what we can change and what we cannot. To understand where we need to improve ourselves and to gain self-awareness. It can also be a time of reflection and to just relax and stop for a second because we may just need to stop and take a breath. Take in the moment in its entirety. Be present in the very moment that you are in and feeling what it truly feels like to be connected and aware beyond just yourself. To be in touch with your spirit and in-tune with Thee Most High is a most Beautiful thing and often times we miss out on it.
Always remember this.... Life is a beautiful nightmare.. Moments that will tear you down while innately building you back up all in the same process. Take the time to Be Grateful and Sit Still long enough to understand what is happening. Life is a journey that we must embrace to the fullest and we must also revel in the good, the bad, and the ugly. No matter what is being thrown at you. You must always step up to the plate. You must always show up and you must always give it your best swing!
Love and Light!

Embracing CHANGE
It's amazing how life can take the swiftest turn and CHANGE everything you thought to be possible. CHANGE does not always mean the loss of something... CHANGE is a means of creating another way to ACCOMPLISH your goals...

Knowing When To Let Go
Knowing when to let go is so hard for many of us. We tend to hold on to things that no longer serve the greater good in us. We hold on to anger, resentment, regret, and so many other things that can hinder us from being our True Authentic Self. We fail to realize the damage this does to us emotionally, mentally, and even physically. Most times we cause our own suffering because we can not seem to let go.
There are so many reasons why we do not and/or cannot let go. Those reasons can be pride, ego, guilt, and so many other things. Each reason is based upon the individual and how he or she may feel towards a certain person and/or situation. Often times we cannot let go because of the emotional attachments that we hold towards a person, thing, or situation. I believe that this inability to let go is often caused by denial. What I mean by denial is our failure to accept a person and/or situation for what it is or isn't. Denial is often times our greatest enemy because it keeps us from accepting people and/or situations for what they really are. Denial keeps us from a place of acceptance. Accepting what is and what isn't and being able to move forward from that point.
Acceptance for some may be described as weakness. However, perception is everything and how you choose to view things will ultimately determine how you move and or think. Because you accept something, whether you like it or not does not make you weak. It places you in a state of awareness that now enables you to make a decision from your true authentic self. It is like the serenity prayer that you often hear people speak. "God grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the Courage to change the things I can, and the Wisdom to know the difference."
In life our biggest struggles are with the very things that we cannot change and we waste so much time on those things, that when we finally realize what it is we can change, we are too tired to make the needed changes. This is a cycle that we all must stop because we all have been here at this point. The lesson itself is not in the decision necessarily, but in fact it is in the mistake. Because from that mistake we learn more about ourselves. It is in that moment of self-awareness that we grow and begin to the make the best decisions from our True Authentic Self.
As the saying goes, "Let Go and Let God." We have to learn what battles are meant for us to fight and what battles are meant for us to Let Go and allow a power that which is Greater than ourselves to take the battlefield.
Love and Light!!

How Do You Exist In Love?
LOVE..... The one thing most of us yearn for, yet it is the very thing many of us run from. Funny how that works. We all want to be loved. We talk about it.. We dream about it... We even fight for it... and ironically enough, when we get it.. We have absolutely no clue what to do with it. We rarely know how to receive it. We struggle with knowing how to give it. We often fall short of nurturing it. And we have an even harder time recognizing it.
LOVE... The very thing we search outside of ourselves for. The very thing that actually exists within us. Settling and resting within our true core. We spend so much time searching for something from someone or something else, when in fact we are our first true source of love. How we love ourselves defines how we view love, how we receive love, and how we give love. Let that sink in for a second. How do you feel when you think about that statement? How do you love on you? How deserving do you truly believe you are of love? Do you even know how to receive love and are you willing to give the very love that you desire? These are all important questions that we must take the time to ask ourselves and to truthfully answer.
We have to be aware of how we ourselves view love, how we define love, and if we believe that we are truly worthy enough of receiving love. We have to speak our love language and in order to do so, we must know what our love language is. We must know how we want to be loved and we must be able to express that to the individuals we want to be loved by that want to love us. We must take judgment out of love and replace it with patience and understanding. We must nurture love because love can take time and within that time love grows and how it grows is determined upon how we nurture it and care for it. Love is not a weapon that we use to get what we want and/or desire. Love is not a bargaining chip to be given away for the gain of something superficial. Love is genuine and pure. Love has no bounds and no limits. Love heals all things and Love is Why and How we Exist.
Now sit back and Feel The Love, Receive The Love, and Give The Love! What we give out we will receive back tenfold. Please know and understand that. Live and Exist in Love and you will attract all that which you heart desires!!
Love and Light!!

Changing The View
The energy all around is definitely at an all time high. So many emotions, so many actions, so many thoughts. It all seems so overwhelming. This is an important time to just BE STILL. Be still and listen because there is a message waiting for you. There is something you need to focus on, there is something you need to change, there is something you need to do OR not do. Whatever it is, you need to BE STILL and receive the message and see the signs.
Life has a way of throwing multiple things at us at one time and it feels like as soon as we conquer one task, we are left to complete yet another one. It is like a never ending cycle that drains us continuously, leaving us exhausted mentally, emotionally, and physically. This is a cycle than cannot be continued. This cycle does not feed the greater good of our purpose. This cycle leaves us confused and tired, unsure and insecure, and this cycle is NOT the cycle meant for us to exist in.
If you follow me and have read my blogs over the years, then you know that I am BIG on how you think. You will hear me say time and time again that perspective is everything. It is about how you view things. From what vantage point do you see situations? Are you focused on the situation itself, attaching negative thoughts to it? Or do you look at the situation and immediately focus on a solution? Often times we find ourselves stuck on the situation and the emotions we feel regarding it. The doubt, the worry, the anger, the fear, the anxiety, and the list goes on and on. These are the negative thoughts I spoke about when I asked the question. These very things, these temporary waves that will and can change in the blink of an eye, is where we find ourselves stuck. We cannot see pass the clouds. There is no silver lining. Only dark clouds and despair. We have to change this way of thinking. "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he." Proverbs 23:7
You first have to change the way you think and how you see yourself because how you think and see yourself will determine how you approach every situation that you are faced with. Once you do that, your way of viewing and handling things will vastly change and for the better I might add. What we all have to learn is that we cannot always control the things that may happen to us, however we can control how we respond to the things that happen to us. It is important that we know the difference. Know what we can and cannot change and know what we can and cannot control. You will find that the only thing in any situation that you can change and control is you and once you begin to do that, life will present itself to you entirely different.
You know what the crazy thing is about this thing call life. Gratitude and living and existing in that space will change everything. We have to learn to Be and Show gratitude for the smallest of things. The very things we take for granted like waking up daily, having a sound mind, being able to move and make decisions, breathe, see, hear, walk, love, so forth and so on. If we are unable to show gratitude for even these simple treasures of life, then how can we expect to receive more things to be Grateful for?
Let That Sink In..

Planting The Seeds
Would you change the way you thought about yourself and your life if you knew how truly powerful your conscious and subconscious mind was? Would you change the way you thought about yourself and your life if you knew for a fact that the very thoughts and words you speak manifest your reality? Well, I am here to tell you that you are the source of the seeds that get planted daily with regard to your own life. The very words that you speak out and the thoughts and feelings that you speak form and shape the reality you live in. "As a man thinketh, so shall He be!" You are the secret! Your mind and your thoughts are the key to your success and your life because what you believe about yourself will dictate how you move throughout this life.
If you know and understand your worth, then your mindset and the way you talk will reflect just that. However, we must also understand that in the same way that our positive thoughts and talk can manifest great things, the negative thoughts and talk can manifest the very things we don't want as well. This is why we must be mindful of the seeds that we plant on a daily basis. Yes, I said seeds. Your thoughts and words are the seeds that get planted everyday and you will in fact reap what you sew once harvest time comes around.
Be diligent in the journey to find your true self. Be strong in understanding and accepting that which is not meant for your well being. Have the courage to let go of what no longer serves your greater purpose and Begin to speak like into and over your life. You have the Power and You hold the key to your success. You are the author of your life, so make it a good one. Understand that the very words you speak can bring you abundance when you have the mindset to support it. Believe and know that you are worthy, valuable, and have a purpose. Grace is all around you and is yours by divine right. Start to wake up everyday and live in a place of gratitude and you will receive more things to be grateful for. Now is the time to live from your True Self!
Love and Light!!

Living in Gratitude
How often do you take the time to just say Thank You? For even the smallest thing, like waking up, or having a sound mind, being able to breath on your own, or to be able to hear and or to see. Those very things that we all think we are entitled to. The very things we often take for granted.
Living in gratitude daily is how we get to grace. When we live in gratitude we are given more to be grateful for. Gratitude is not just a state of mind. It is a way of life. The very life we all desire and pray for. The very life we live daily and forget to be grateful for. When we decide to exist in gratitude, everything around us changes. The sky is bluer, we can hear the singing of the birds in the am, the sun even shines brighter. We find ourselves in a state of bliss, a state of peace and calm. A place where we are centered and self-aware.
One thing that we have to know and understand is that, gratitude takes place in the here and now, the present moment. Now, that is not to say don't be grateful for the past and the lessons and blessings learned. What I am saying is that we have to be grateful for what we have right here and right now. How can we receive in abundance if we live and think in lack? Constantly giving focus and energy to everything we don't have, or think we should have. If we can't even appreciate what we have in this very moment, then how can we truly appreciate anything?
Gratitude is consistent whether times are good or bad simply because there is always something to be grateful for. Living from that space, that energy is what will manifest so much more to be grateful for. That doesn't mean that trials and tribulations will not occur. It just means that our perception of things has shifted enough to see the grace of it all and be humbled.
Love and Light!

How It All Started
Mental health is something that I am very passionate about and if you know me then you are familiar with my messages of self-love, and healthy mental and physical well-being. For those of you that are more recent readers and have not had the chance to go waaaay back into my blogs, I will give you some insight...
My journey with mental health started about 2007 when my mom was faced with some serious and traumatic life events in addition to the onset of menopause. Over the span of six to eight months she endured the loss of her mom, the loss of her sleep, a bad break-up in which she was emotionally, mentally, and physically abused, and a few other losses as well. She had tried everything from sleep meds to seeing her family doctor on a regular basis, and even therapy. Nothing seemed to work once she lost her sleep. She had gone 14 days with only 8 hours of sleep and at this point she was suffering from psychosis and other various symptoms. From there things only seemed to get worse until I put myself through pharmacy tech school. That way I could get a clear handle and understanding of the meds she was talking and the effects that they could and were having on her physically and mentally. Once I understood the pharmaceutical part of mental health, I realized that there was so much more involved. Two years later I was then blessed with the opportunity to get into the Master's program for Marriage Family and Child Therapy while working for my family business. It is so amazing how Thee Most High works and all we have to do is be open to receive and be present in the here and now.
Over the course of 3 years I received my Master's of Science in MFT and gained a much better sense of my mom's mental dis-ease and my own mental wellness. I enrolled in the program to save my mom's life and in fact I was able to save mine as well. I learned the importance of self-care and how I had done and was doing everything that I possibly could and now it was time for my mom to do some things for herself while working with a team of individuals who were going to help her gain back control of her life and well-being.
It had definitely been a long road filled with ups and downs, highs and lows, hospital stays long and short, and dramatic life changes. Mental health and well-being is soo important and I cannot say it enough. We have all been in a dark place at one time or another in life, however we made it through and we stand here today to be able to talk about it and to share it in hopes of helping someone else who may be quietly going through the same thing. Life can be funny like that sometimes... giving us shit just so we can savor the sugar. Whole Well-being is the key to mental well-being. You have to do the things to nurture yourself as a whole physically, spiritually, mentally, and emotionally. They are all intertwined and play an important role with each other. Don't take either part of yourself for granted. You deserve to be at your very best and to be your most truest self. Your best life is lived from the heart and soul!
Love and Light!

The Key To Happiness
Life has a funny way of teaches us lessons. Showing us who and what we need versus what we think we need. Life will throw what we often feel is the very worse at us, just to show us that we deserve the very best. Life reminds us of our worth and our value, not only to ourselves but to others as well. Life can show us love in thee most unbelievable ways and then turn around and give us thee most unbearable pain we have ever felt. Ironic how that works out. Life will place us in situations that give us character and humility that we never thought we had, however it can also reveal the lack of character and lack of humility in others as well. Life is funny like that. Giving us alternative sides of the same view. Being a reflection of what we fail to see. Failing to see that the very reflection we often run from is our own. Let those last few lines sink in for second...
Happiness...let's talk about that for a second. I see and hear so many opinions on what Happiness is and/or should be. I rarely hear about what Happiness isn't. Well, here are my thoughts about that. Happiness is not based on anyone or anything outside of yourself. That may sound hard to believe, however it is very true. True Happiness comes from within. It comes from the very love that we have and give to ourselves. However, often times we seek Happiness through so many outside factors and we end up spending our entire lifetime searching for something that is already within us. Because the cold hard truth is that we cannot expect someone or something to give us the very thing/s that we do not and are not willing to give ourselves. How can we receive love when we do not even love ourselves? How can we complete someone else or think that someone else is meant to complete us when what makes us incomplete has absolutely nothing to do with anyone other than ourselves?
It is time that we start to look within ourselves and find the Love and Happiness that we so desperately seek from others. Is it time to Stand Up and take back control of our existence and make things happen. No longer sitting around waiting for opportunities to fall within our laps and start creating opportunities. Start loving on ourselves in such a way that those around us have no choice but to love us in the same way because we will accept nothing less.
I say all of that to say this.... True Happiness comes from within. Yes, there are outside factors that can add happiness and fulfillment to our lives, however the foundation of our Happiness comes from us first. That way, if the things and people we believe are supposed to bring us Happiness fall short, we are still fulfilled from within. That is where the True Power is! Now it is time to Take Back Your Happiness and Your Power!! You Deserve It!!
Love and Light!!

Start loving on ourselves in such a way that those around us have no choice but to love us in the same way because we will accept nothing less.
I say all of that to say this.... True Happiness comes from within. Yes, there are outside factors that can add happiness and fulfillment to our lives, however the foundation of our Happiness comes from us first. That way, if the things and people we believe are supposed to bring us Happiness fall short, we are still fulfilled from within. That is where the True Power is! Now it is time to Take Back Your Happiness and Your Power!! You Deserve It!!
Love and Light!!

Charting New Waters
As we look towards the New Year, we all talk about how we plan on doing some things different, changing some bad habits, and chasing some new dreams and goals. And as the New Year progresses, how many of those things have we actually done or even set a plan for? How many of those things do you actually scratch off the list? This year I did something different. I didn't make any resolutions for myself. I just took initiative on the things that I know and want and need to be done. I have found myself back in an old element (basketball) and it has been exciting and frustrating all at the same time. It has been a blessing and a growing experience. I wouldn't trade it.
I have also taken the time and enrolled back into school to learn a second language. I want to stretch myself and learning American Sign Language has been something that I have wanted to do for a very long time. In college, I had a very good friend whose family was deaf and he could hear, however he knew sign language. In addition, I had a teammate who was partially deaf. You never know what life is going to throw at you or even where it is going to take you. When I first moved back from Arizona, I researched various programs and looked online for American Sign Language courses and could not find any that were suitable to my needs at the time. So, once again it became something that was placed on the back burner and quickly forgotten about. I believe that timing is everything and whatever is yours by Divine Right will come to you in the right time, not our time but the right time.
Now was the right time. It made perfect sense. I was now coaching Women's basketball on a college campus, so why not enroll into school and accomplish my goal.
This is why Being in the Here and Now is so imperative to our overall existence. Everything will not always happen when we want it or how we want it, however if it is something that you truly want and it is yours by Divine Right, then nothing can stop you from attaining it. We just need to Be Focused, Listen with more than just our ears, and at some point sit still so that we can place ourselves in a position of receiving. It is pretty simple.
As we are given the gift of seeing another day, why not take full advantage of the opportunity, the possibility. Take on New Adventures! Chart New Waters! Believe in the Impossible! Take Action! Remember, the only thing stopping you is you. Time to get out of your own way and make room for abundance! It is Your Time!
Love and Light

Why Play Safe When You Can Play Powerful?
I was scrolling through my Instagram feed when I heard the words, "Why play safe when you can play powerful?" Those very words stuck with me instantly. It was a phrase that I could relate to and even had to admit, have found myself in many times throughout my life's span. I could recall many moments where I had just played it safe instead of taking the risk and truly believing in myself and my abilities. Fear and Doubt had taken hold of me one time too many and I knew that it was time for a change. I was doing myself a disservice by not furthering my thoughts and ideas, by not living from my True Self. Most importantly, I was doing a disservice to those around me because I was blessed with gifts that were supposed to be shared with others.
How much of what I just stated in the previous paragraph resonates with you? How familiar did these feelings sound? As much as we want to believe we are different (and in some ways we are), we are also very similar. We share some of the very same struggles and insecurities. Life can be a complex thing, however how we take on the events and opportunities that take place in our lives play a very large part in the life we will manifest and live. That is why it is important that we believe in who we are and what we have to offer and STOP always playing it safe in an attempt to not fail, be disappointed, and or just take a risk outside of our own comfort zone.
Life is really not a mystery or a riddle. It is actually simple and amazing all wrapped into one. It can love us and or hate us, however, that all depends on how we look at and react to the things happening all around us. We have to learn to see things for FACE VALUE and not what we want it to be or think it should be. We must be brutally honest with ourselves about our rights, wrongs, strengths, and shortcomings because in doing this we gain another level of self-awareness that can help us get to the core of our true selves.
Don't be afraid to step out on Faith and not on Fear and Doubt! Fall in love with idea of stepping outside of your comfort zones on a consistent basis. Understand that your Best Life is lived outside the box and that's where all of the Magic happens. Believe that you deserve the absolute Best regardless of your past transgressions. Know that you are worthy and each day that you open your eyes, proves that you are deserving, worthy, and coveted in Grace and Mercy. This is where the Power Lays!
Playing it safe is not always the Smart Move! Sometimes you play yourself short and sometimes it works out until it's time for the Next Move! You have everything you need within you to make the Power Moves needed to live your Best Life! Carpe Diem my Friend!! Carpe Diem
Love and Light

How Much Skin...
How much skin do you have in the game? What I mean by that is this.... How much have you truly invested in yourself, your time, your effort? Like really sit back for a moment and think about that. Are you just going through the motions of life? Are you doing things just to say that you did them, with no real effort and no vision of the true possibilities that can come from every opportunity that is placed in front of you? Are you simply just existing? How much time have you wasted by not taking full advantage of something? How much time have you wasted by simply not taking the first step?
The answers to these very questions will require some deep hard truth and you have to be willing to be honest with yourself. No more excuses and no more finger pointing on all other variables outside of yourself. This is the moment of truth. The moment you look in the mirror and admit and accept all of your flaws and shortcomings. No more smoke and mirrors! No more wasting of your time!
So, my next question is.... Now that you have honestly answered all of the above questions... What are you going to do about it? What are you going to change? What action will you now take to enhance the possibilities of your life? And if you haven't answered all of the above mentioned questions, that's okay too. Take your time and take stock of some things in your life. Only you can change your life! It starts by changing your mindset. By opening up your mind and actions to the true possibilities of success, change, and New Beginnings. You are only limited by the very things you think about yourself.
I know I constantly talk about how you think and your perspective, self-awareness and soul searching. I do this because these things are so important when it comes to growth and success and having the life you deserve and are destined to live by Divine Right!
Just think about it. What do you have to lose and what do you have to gain by re-evaluating your life, time, and effort? It would appear to be a WIN/WIN to me. You are always your own BEST Investment! If you look back at the time you have spent, how much of it did you truly put forth real effort? And once again ask yourself.... How much skin do you have in the game?

Taking The Time To Live Your Best Life
How often do you really take time out for yourself to recharge and replenish? How often do you stop and just smell the roses? Show gratitude for the small things and not just be focused on the things that are going wrong or just not right? If, you really think about it, I am sure you will realize that you rarely take good care of yourself on ALL LEVELS. Life can and will definitely keep you busy and as you chase the dreams of those around you whether it be for your children, your spouse, and even your boss, you continuously place yourself on the back burner. Well my friends, its time to change that way of life. You are NO GOOD to those around you if you are not first GOOD TO YOURSELF! If you are always giving to others, inspiring them, recharging them, giving your energy, then what will you have left for yourself when you need it? Are you surrounding yourself with people who can and will provide you with the same energy, the same nourishment and inspiration? If not, then you need to really take stock of who you are investing your time and energy into. It is vital to your own well-being.
Please don't misunderstand what I am saying. It is our purpose and responsibility to help those around us. However, it is extremely important that we create and set boundaries that enable us to attain balance and not give so much of ourselves that in the end we are depleted and must recharge ourselves. Please remember that you too need some of the very same things that you are so willingly and selflessly providing to others.
One of the first steps to understand exactly what I am speaking of is understanding that you are WORTHY and DESERVING! That is the FIRST thing and really the MOST IMPORTANT! Because if you don't believe that then you will always be content with giving yourself to the point of depletion while not placing yourself in a position to receive the very things you need as well. Life can be a tricky web that we weave for ourselves not realizing and taking accountability for the truth that we have placed ourselves in the very positions that we yearn to get out of. And we have done that with our BELIEF SYSTEM within ourselves. It is what we believe within ourselves. the fear, the doubt, and the self-talks that we have that often talk us right out of our very blessings.
It is time to make some changes and those changes start with the way that You See Yourself! Once you see yourself through the lenses of a much brighter, deserving, and worthy perspective, everything you do will change, how you move, how you think, how you love, and how you exist. The light within you will begin to illuminate the way you were intended. Life begins to look different, smell different, and taste different. You owe it to yourself and those around you to Be The Best Version of you possible. Live Your Best Life Now! No time life the Present!
Love and Light!

Creating The Life You Deserve
As each New Year approaches many people create a long list of "Resolutions" that most times don't even get looked at after March 1st. I am not being negative or judgmental, I just know the regimen because I once lived it. An endless cycle of realistic and some unrealistic goals that I wasn't willing to really work towards on a consistent basis. I am not ashamed to say that my follow through has not always been the best. It has definitely been something that I have worked on and will continue to work on. One of the biggest components of that factor is believing in myself, my dreams, my gifts, and my abilities enough to follow through.
I truly believe that that is an issue for many of us. We lack the self-confidence it takes to carry out our dreams and desires. Either we do not believe we are good enough to achieve something or we are not deserving enough. That thought process is very detrimental to the very way we exist and have existed for a very long time. They say it takes 21 days to break a habit. Well, I say it is time to get to work. Let's start to Break some of these Habits ONE STEP at a time. Now is the time to make the changes needed to get the changes and the life that each and every one of us desire. What better time is there than NOW?!
There is no need to wait any longer. Believe that you have everything within you to achieve anything that your heart desires. It all starts from within. You must start to learn who you are and what you stand for. Self-awareness is key and many of you who have followed my blog have heard me say this over and over again. Knowing who you are, what your gifts are, and what your purpose is, is all relative in the success of your journey in this thing called LIFE.
Do Not be afraid of your Greatness. It is within. It is meant for you. It is your gift and Your Divine Right!

Manifesting Your Purpose
Life can be so many things. I have definitely learned that along my own travels. I've traveled outside of my comfort zone. I've been out of the country. I've met some amazing people and learned some amazing things. I've seen beauty that can only be created by the hands of Thee Most High! I've been humbled and I've been Graced with the Blessings of Life's Most Simple Things. Things that we often take for granted, like HOT WATER, or CLEAN WATER, a warm place to sleep at night, and LOVE. I could go on and on, but I digress because life is heavy enough as it is. So, why not live life to the fullest, without Fear, fulfilling our Dreams and using our Gifts.
Have you ever just sat down by yourself and just asked yourself what it is that you truly want? Not the material things, like what is your purpose? What is your greatness and why aren't you living in it? And then once you have asked yourself that question, how do you answer? Are you truly honest with yourself? Do you decide to take accountability and stand in your own failures and bullshit and fears? Because we all have them or have had them at one point and time. And that is ok! It is what you do from this point on that matters. Will you continue to just settle? Living in Fear and mediocrity? Afraid of Doing The Work and Being Great? One thing for certain, Tomorrow is not guaranteed and each day that we wake up, is a NEW DAY to tune into our Greatness. Even if it is a baby step. Just Take The Step. Because if you can envision it and it brings a soothing warmth and flutter to your soul, then it is VERY POSSIBLE!
As I write these words to ALL OF YOU, this is a blog that hits home for me as well. I too have had to have this conversation with myself. I've had to do some deep soul searching. I had to get back to me. It was time for me to be just a little selfish and nourish and feed my own needs and desires. I could no longer sit around and wait for things to manifest or for someone else to fulfill them for me. How was that to happen when these were in fact MY needs and desires? And ever since I decided to take a stance and not for any other reason than my own well-being and happiness things have been soo much better, so much more at peace. It is important to my family that I maintain certain things within myself first and foremost so that I can be the things I am destined and designed to be. Until you gain self-awareness you will struggle with understanding what those very things are. We are each designed with a purpose and a gift. Well, now is the time to manifest that gift so that you can live in your purpose.

Embracing The New Year
First, let me start out by saying Happy New Year!! Boy how time does indeed fly. 2018 has come and gone, without even giving me a hug and a kiss before it said Good-Bye. (LOL) 2019 is definitely here and believe you me, it too will come and go before we even have a chance to settle in. So you know what that means right? It means that TIME is one thing that we cannot waste and if we don't value it, like the NEW YEAR, it will simply come and go whether we are ready or not.
Now is the time to take advantage of the opportunities placed before you. Let go of the FEAR that is keeping you stuck and stagnant. Now is the time to go and chase YOUR DREAMS and CONQUER YOUR FEARS. There is nothing that you can't do when you put your mind to it. What we often fail to realize is that WE OURSELVES are the only thing standing in the way of having everything that we desire that is ours by DIVINE RIGHT. Everyone was put on this Universe to THRIVE. You must Believe and Know that YOU ARE DESERVING and WORTHY!!
Over the next few days, take some time out and just sit with yourself and reflect. Think about your life over the last few weeks, months, and even years and take stock of where you once were mentally, spiritually, and emotionally and where you are now. Has there been an improvement or a decline and in which area and/or areas? How can you change this? What can you do to make the overall QUALITY of your life better? Because you deserve it.
Once you have taken stock and inventory of your life, pull out a pen and a piece of paper and create a "TO-DO LIST" or a "GOAL LIST' short-term and long-term, daily, weekly, and/or monthly. It's time to get things in order and start DOING the things that it's going to take to place yourself in a space of Tranquility, Calm, and Happiness.
Regardless of the life you once lived, you can create and have the life you want as long as you believe that you deserve it and you are willing to step outside of your comfort zone and into FAITH, leaving ALL DOUBT and WORRY behind. Because SUCCESS, HAPPINESS, and FEAR simply cannot exist in the same space.
EMBRACE THE NEW YEAR! EMBRACE THE POSSIBILITIES!

You Are Enough
Recently, my life has taken some major turns. Never did I think that I would be on the path that I am currently on. In less than a year, I will be married to a wonderful human being, I am now doing what I have secretly always wanted to do (Coach Women's Basketball), and I am about to push another dream of mine, which is becoming an author. You just never know when or how life will come full circle for you. Remaining positive, regardless of what life will and has thrown at you is important. Understanding that you will endure and realizing that you yourself are enough. Yes, I will repeat that one more time... YOU YOURSELF ARE ENOUGH!
I had a talk with my young ladies after one of our games and I had to let them know that they were enough, individually and collectively as a team. That weather they had seven players or five players, they are capable of competing and winning every time they step on the floor. Everything that they keep looking outside for, whether it be towards other young ladies on the team, other coaches, or whomever... Everything in which they seek is within them already. The tools, the skills, and the ability is all there and once they realize that individually first and then collectively, things will begin to change as a whole. Not just their life as athletes, but as human beings as well.
Life is a funny thing in that way. We spend much of our life searching for something that has always been inside of us. We think that once we get that ONE job, or get into that ONE relationship, or get that ONE big break, then and only then will life change for the better. The sad part to that is, not one of those ONE things that we are waiting for, will have the type of impact we are expecting and/or looking for. We are wasting time, when the only ONE thing we need is OURSELF.
It sounds crazy only because you don't have the confidence in yourself to chase your dreams. You believe that you don't deserve those things you dream about. You don't believe that you are capable of achieving certain things because you just don't believe that you are flat out worthy. First things first. Change your mindset. Change how you view yourself. Notice I didn't say how others few you. You got to work on you from the inside out because that is where the true power is.
It's time to take stock and re-evaluate who you are and what you see. Because if you don't see Greatness in yourself, then the battle is already lost. Believe in who you were meant to Be by Divine Right, Not who the world says you should be!
Love and Light!

What Are You Waiting For?
Life is a funny thing. Sooo full of UPS and DOWNS, TWISTS and TURNS, and a plethora of other things. We try to balance everything like we are a part of some traveling circus act and we fail to realize that we are just human. We were born to make mistakes, we were born to grow and learn and often times that growth and wisdom will come from the experiences of life. What we must also understand is that we aren't meant to live this life alone. We are connected and bridged to people to help us maneuver through life. The part that we have to figure out is if those that cross our path are meant to stay and for exactly how long.
What I found to be true about human beings is that we are creature of habits and not all of those habits are always good. And most importantly we hold on to habits for comfort and security. As a way to feel safe, balanced, and under control. Or SO WE THINK. That can sometimes be so far from the truth.
We can't continue to look for comfort and security outside of our very selves. We have to be able to rely on ourselves first and foremost and then move accordingly. Although, life will sometimes place you in positions where we may have to be dependent, it can also place us in a position of strength and empowerment. Where we can shed all the insecurities and bad habits that have been a way of life for so long and BE FREE. We can lighten our Spirits and the burdens of life as well. We have to learn what people and things we need to let go of in order to be at peace with ourselves. We have to learn what things we can and cannot or should I say should or should not give our energy to or at least when to give our energy and how much. We have to place ourselves in a better position to receive the true blessings that await us. I can definitely say that those blessings that I speak of exist outside of our comfort zones. We have to be willing to stretch ourselves in a way that we have never been stretched. We have to be willing to exceed the limits that we have subconsciously set for ourselves. Fear, Doubt and, Insecurity can no longer exist and just in case it does decide to rear its ugly head at some point, we can freely and confidently dismiss is as just another thought that will leave as quick as it came.
Our best life is just waiting for us to say "Hey! I'm Ready! Let's Do This!" So, I humbly ask you, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

We can't continue to look for comfort and security outside of our very selves. We have to be able to rely on ourselves first and foremost and then move accordingly. Although, life will sometimes place you in positions where we may have to be dependent, it can also place us in a position of strength and empowerment. Where we can shed all the insecurities and bad habits that have been a way of life for so long and BE FREE. We can lighten our Spirits and the burdens of life as well. We have to learn what people and things we need to let go of in order to be at peace with ourselves. We have to learn what things we can and cannot or should I say should or should not give our energy to or at least when to give our energy and how much. We have to place ourselves in a better position to receive the true blessings that await us. I can definitely say that those blessings that I speak of exist outside of our comfort zones. We have to be willing to stretch ourselves in a way that we have never been stretched. We have to be willing to exceed the limits that we have subconsciously set for ourselves. Fear, Doubt and, Insecurity can no longer exist and just in case it does decide to rear its ugly head at some point, we can freely and confidently dismiss is as just another thought that will leave as quick as it came.
Our best life is just waiting for us to say "Hey! I'm Ready! Let's Do This!" So, I humbly ask you, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

Raising Your Vibrations
When you wake up in the am, what is the first thing that you do after you open your eyes? Do you say Thank You for the Grace of waking up another day? Do you start the am out stressing, worrying about all of the things that you need to do and all of the things that you haven't done? What state of mind are you in before you start your day? These are all very important questions that you really need to ask yourself. It is time to take inventory of your life and how you exist.
It is easy to get carried away before you even have a chance to really take stock of how you exist mentally and how that very existence can dictate how your day and or life can and will go. It is important to understand the power of the mind and the subconscious. What you think you become, so it is important that you remain in a place of gratitude. Through the good and the bad, it is important to always be grateful because there is definitely a lesson in it all.
Life is definitely a state of mind and a place of action. True Abundance does not require Hard Work, Stress, or Real Effort. All it requires is a mindset that sets forth a HIGHER VIBRATION towards the Universe of what it is you truly desire. What I mean is this. You can Hope, use Wishful Thinking, and a variety of other things, however if your vibration levels are low, the Universe won't hear you. Like attracts Like. You can't manifest your destiny if subconsciously you still exist in a place of DOUBT, ANXIETY, and STRESS, which in turns lowers your vibration levels or creates high vibrations based on an energy that is the complete opposite of what it is you truly desire. You have a Destiny. We all have one and it's time that WE TUNE into it!
Replace everything that you once knew with the Reality of what your are destined to have and who you are destined to Be! Truly attract the very things that you desire with the right mindset and vibration level. Speak not only to your Spirit, Speak To the Universe. However, please remember the Universe HAS ONLY ONE LANGUAGE and when you truly understand that you will BE MINDFUL of Your Words, Your Very Thoughts whether Conscious or Subconscious, and your Energy and/or Vibration Level!
IT'S TIME TO RAISE YOUR VIBRATIONS!!

Time To Get In The Game
How much skin do you have in the game? The game that I speak of is called "Life". When I say skin, what I mean is this.. How much time do you really spend chasing your dream, making things happen, doing the work? How much are you investing in you? How much time, how much effort, how much trust and determination to you have for, with, and about yourself? Is your walk as good as your talk? Have you made good on the promises you continue to make to yourself time and time again? I'm sure if you really looked deep within and answered that question, you would probably answer with a emphatic NO. Don't worry. You wouldn't be the first person to doubt yourself, cheat yourself, and lie to yourself.
It's time to put away all of those insecurities and doubts that you have about yourself and step into your NEW existence, your Divine existence. The only thing stopping you from Being Great is you. I know that may be hard to understand, however this is where accountability and truth takes place. Being accountable for what you have and haven't done to Be the person you were meant to Be. And Being truthful within yourself in accepting those very things. You can't be accountable for what you do not believe is of your doing and or influence.
Life is much simpler than we believe, yet we continue to make it hard by not believing in the Power we have and the Gifts that reside deep inside us. We allow all of the outside distractions of life take us out of the game. Well it's time to get back in the game and do more than just let life pass you by while you just sit it out on the sideline being a spectator.
If you look back over time and see how much time, effort, money, and a plethora of other things that you have given to everything else but yourself, you will see that you are definitely well worth the investment and it's time that you start investing. Don't Be Afraid to move closer to your dreams and Being the Best You Possible. You owe it to yourself! Now Let's Play Ball!!

Getting Balanced
BEING IN A STATE OF BALANCE IS THE BEST PLACE TO BE. Getting to that place is the challenge and staying there is even more of a mystery. Balance takes place when we learn to LET GO. Let Go of the very things that continue to way us down. For many, those things are called, "BURDENS". And BOY OH BOY do some of us have many of them that we carry around like luggage. Never realizing how much it is putting a strain on our WHOLE WELL-BEING. We don't realize the damage that we are and have done to ourselves because we walk around in a state of blind awareness. Instead of accepting and acknowledging things for the way that they truly are, we live in this grey area of blind possibilities of how we want things to be. The other important factor that we overlook is the fact that we only try to gain balance in one area. An example of that would be the individual that only works out and doesn't work on the nutritional side. It's like wanting something, however you are not willing to do what it takes in it's entirety to attain what you want. And if you really look at that, it is completely working against the ULTIMATE GOAL, which is to BE WHOLE, TO BE BALANCED AS A WHOLE because if you haven't realized it by now, the Mind, the Body, and the Soul is all intertwined. They function at their highest and best levels when ALL THINGS are aligned and in-tune with each other. It is like a rhythmic melody played by the inner workings of the deepest part of your very Being.
There is no "Quick Fix" when it comes to balance. The issue to not having balance is Being non-compliant. There's an old saying, "If you knew better, you'd do better!" and that is not really true. Deep down you know what is and isn't good for you, from the food you eat, to the cigarettes you smoke, or the amount of alcohol that you consume. However, in knowing all these things, often times the choice to continue to indulge in the very things that are no good for you is made. First thing you must do is have a moment of truth with yourself and see you for who you really are. The Good, The Bad, and DEFINITELY The Ugly. Only in that moment of honesty will you BE able to Face, Acknowledge, and Accept the very things that you need to change. There are a few reasons that this needs to take place. In order to Heal and Grow in Life and as an individual beautiful soul, you must go to the core of your very being and in that core is where your level of SELF-AWARENESS grows profoundly. This is where your soul awakens and that Light that has been dim for so long begins to have a much stronger flicker to it as it begins to dance to that melodic rhythmic tune being played by the deepest part of your very Being.
True and Total Balance will only manifest when your awareness expands enough to show you who you really are. There is no True and Total Balance when you exist in the space of anyone else. Being awake in the very light of yourself is when you begin to shed those very things I spoke about in the beginning of the entry, "BURDENS". You must stop fighting with yourself and start accepting and loving yourself so that you can live and move in love and light.
