Accountable. Responsible. Obedient. Believe. These words are all one in the same to me. You must take ownership of your situation in your life. If you are an entrepreneur, or in management at your company, you must take ownership of your situation there. As people, we own the work that we do and the path…

This is actually post 3 of 3 in my “Not Yet” series. “Not Yet?” was the first post and “Not Yet, You Are Hidden‘” was the second. Here I want to dig into not being able to move into the promise of God on your life because you won’t submit to the Lord. I decided…

The last post that I wrote was, “Not Yet!” Immediately, I felt like there was so much more to write about that I told my niece, Brandi Boo, I was going to write a Part 2. Well, here it goes. I cannot explain to anyone how I feel right now or what’s going on. What…

I’d do anything for me, but I used to didn’t. (Read that again) I used to put everyone else’s needs before mine. Really, I used to. But, I don’t anymore. Why did I stop? Well, I am glad you asked. And really, the answer is very simple. I love myself enough to know that I…

Here’s my foregone conclusion: I. Want. To. Mind. My. Own. Business. I can’t handle minding other peoples business. It’s to much. I have worked so hard and fought so hard for my curb appeal and green grass. I want to move to my backyard, but someone came in and trampled my lawn, so… back to…
