WHO AM I ?

There comes a time in a woman’s life where she starts to wonder “WHO AM I”? The timing of this question is different for ever woman but no matter what it tends to arrive. Now some of you are saying, “Not me, I know who I am and I know what I want!”, but this question will still surface because things about you change.

In my twenties, I thought I had it all together, I was a wife, a mother, a career woman and as my children grew up I found myself getting lost in everyone’s world except my own. Yes, I did the basic things for myself like went to college and obtained several degrees to earn a better living for my family but, I was so consumed with making sure everyone was pursuing their dreams that I forgot all about mine. I stopped running, did not have any hobbies, began to gain weight, and then I realized I was unhappy.

Now, I was not unhappy with my life. I worked hard to have the lifestyle I was living but I lost me in the process. How many of you have lost yourself in the midst of taking care of your family and putting their needs first? A woman’s job is hard. She has to be a wife, mother, taxi, nurse, caregiver, professional, and the list goes on. These are just the roles you play, not really who you are.

WHO AM I? Is that special essence that makes you different from all the rest. It’s the thing that makes you get up in the morning and help you accomplish your goals. It’s that thing you fight to find because once you realize and obtain it you know you will be whole.

Now this journey will not be easy and you might take a while to find yourself again, but the soul searching will be worth it.

My Soul revealed that…..

I am
        a Writer

                      an  Author

                                   a  Runner

                                                  an Exhorter

                                                                                                                           

So, ladies, ask yourself “Who Am I?” and spend the rest of your life perfecting her.

Growing into You

Growing into YOU

There comes a time in life when you realize you are not where you think you should be. That’s when you have to grow into the part. This has happened to most people I know and even myself. At times, depending on what it is, I am still growing into that person I desire to be. The key is to start and never give up, because life is only fulfilling when you are growing. Most people have said to themselves, I should be farther along than this, I should have a better home, be an entrepreneur, make more money, or even have a family by now.  I say to those people, it is never to late to start becoming the person you desire to be.

The person you desire to be is just a mindset shift away. Maybe you are not that person because of the choices you have made and the road you have traveled. If this is the case, travel down a different road. It might be hard. There will be failures but this is all apart of the growing process. In order to grow there will be growing pains. The beauty of these growing pains are that they’re designed to shape you into the person you desire to be. There will be a process and your life will go through some seasons, but at the end, you will find the person you were looking for…The person you desire to BE….

I will start first. 

I am growing into the part by enrolling myself into leadership programs to develop my leadership skills so I can become an instructional leader and mentor to other women.  

So how are you growing into the part? 

Leave a comment below telling me how you are growing into the part. 

You, Your biggest Obstacle

You, Your biggest OBSTACLE

Have you ever wondered why things in your life are going a certain way? Do you make excuses for not accomplishing your goals or blame other people? Well if you do, then it's time to reevaluate things. Do you realize that your stinking thinking is getting in the way of your greatest? The only thing that is truly an obstacle in your life is YOU. You determine what your life is going to be like based on your choices. 

I know, I know, some of you are saying "You don't understand, my life has been real hard. So, many things has happened to me." My response to that is, life has happened to everyone. Are you going to let life beat you or are you going to fight back? How do you do that ? Well, you make a choice to get out of your way. You stop using your past as an excuse and start living in the present and preparing for the future. So, what you didn't finish school, that's no excuse for not being successful. All you have to do is start again, re-enroll, and finish. Whatever excuse you use to not do something you need to dismiss it to better yourself. Let it go. Move the excuse out of the way and replace it with the choice to begin, regardless of what your past says. You are not your past, that's just a moment in time that helped you get to a new destination. The difference between the old you and the new you is that you have learned from your past and can make more informed  choices. So, if you are one of those people who are dwelling on your past move that obstacle out of the way because your destiny lies in the present.
