The Perception Deception

Understand that your perception of life determines how you will live. Trust me when I say everyone has times of struggle. Do not allow these times to shape you into an individual who perceives that the world is against them.

Assignment:

Take time to evaluate your belief system and answer these questions: Who do you believe you are? Who do you believe you will be in the future? Do you live in the past?

In order to achieve a vision of clarity, you must create it. In other words, do not blind yourself in the past experiences of your life, instead move forward and upward with a new vision that you create for yourself; Then believe in it and you will soon start living in it.

"Cover" Two Thumbs Up

I give this movie a two thumbs up. It brings awareness to some of the issues we are forced to face today. It includes topics on infidelity, spirituality, betrayal and much more. A must see.

Synopsis:

"When someone is murdered on New Year's Eve, the prime suspect is VALERIE MAAS, a church-going home-maker whose life unravels when she discovers that her husband of many years has been leading a double life. Her strength of character and faith keep her going as the revelation of her husband's betrayal threatens to destroy all that they have known"

Get Tested

Did you know that black women are most likely to be infected with HIV as a result of sex with men who are infected with HIV. In fact, 67% of black women with HIV contacted it through heterosexual sex with men they trust.

Know your status, take control, and inspire other women to do the same.

Make The Choice

Through quiet desperation and unfortunate events in your life, you will either rise to become a better, more productive person, or by choice, wallow in the defeat of those events.

You have a choice to let your subconscious mind take over your actions in a positive or negative way. You hold the key to your destiny and future no matter what plate you have been given.

With that being said, changing your mind to positive and productive thinking machine may in fact require an attitude adjustment and/or an adjustment to your environment.

When you make the choice to move forward and succeed, you may have to tell those around you not to take it personal. Some will understand, some won’t, but just remember that it is your future at stake, and the choices you make will determine your destiny.

Overcoming The Fear of Making Mistakes

If you’re not making mistakes, you’re not doing anything. Action is the only way to accomplish anything, and taking action will bring mistakes.
So often we try to hide our mistakes, and deny them even to ourselves. Instead, we should take pride in the fact that we’re out there trying. There is no better learning experience than making a mistake -- that is, if you’re willing to admit that you’ve done so. When you acknowledge your mistakes, you have a better understanding of how to proceed. After all, you have firsthand experience with what DOESN’T work. That’s valuable and useful knowledge.

All successful people constantly review their past actions and look for ways to improve on them. Imagine that -- they’re anxious to find mistakes even in situations that are generally considered to be successful. Does that tell you something about the value of mistakes as a learning experience?

As you continue to take action, and to learn from the results of those actions, you develop a working knowledge of how to be effective. With this knowledge you can become whatever you want to be.

-- Ralph Marston



Often times we know what we should be doing, but knowing
and doing are two different things. A good Life & Business coach
might be able to help you with the doing part.

What is Holding You Back?

Is it your stinking thinking? Your attitude? or Fear? How can you overcome your adversities in life and move forward without excuses?

Many of us have hopes and dreams. Most of us desire to be independent and successful in our lives and careers. The problem is, too many of us don't know how to get there. I am developing a network of women who are willing to share, teach, mentor those who are truly trying to get there. If this is you, shoot me an email.
