"Never let A Hard Time Humble Us..."

-

I apologize for the wait I was struggling to come up with the next subject but my best friend came through for me... I never realized 'being humble' wasn't a good thing ..until now...

Humble (adjective) -having or showing a modest or low estimate of one's own importance.


THIS IS AN AWFUL WAY TO DESCRIBE YOURSELF!  How dare you work hard at surviving, building, starting over, and attaining just to have a low estimate of what you have or what you've gone through! In what world does this make sense?? Yeah I can understand not wanting to come off as smug but why is coming off as humble any better? People are going to form an opinion of you no matter what. You'd be doing yourself a disservice downplaying your value just to sound like the good guy. Humility should be reserved for the areas we aren't well-versed in like when picking up a new skill or when listening to a friend. One of the most important times to show humility is in times of conflict such as an argument. The root of all arguments is the lack of empathy and understanding. Show humility by acknowledging you may not be right (and even if you are right humility would be demonstrated by reserving judgement and being open to someone else's perspective.) 

AFFIRM: 

I am humbled by the fact that I don't know everything, but I am empowered by my ability to seek help. I will not devalue my fortunes and success to make other people feel better about what they lack. I will live up to my true value as my sacrifices from yesterday allow me to be comfortable today. (written by Lateefah Muhammed)

Guys, keep in mind everything on this blog site is an opinion, some people will agree and some will not and that's ok! I just hate hearing people depreciate themselves when in fact they should be celebrated! Take care and as always...

Don't Take "It" For Granted

-
GOOD MORNING EVERYONE! I hope everyone has had a good week thus far... hopefully this new mid-week post will help carry you and give you something to think about as you continue the rest of the week.... I know sometimes we get carried away with work, busy with house things, and just caught up in our normal routine, but when is the last time you stopped and gave thanks for what you had? Or showed gratitude for those small things we take for granted... or big things! This could be talking and communicating with your children and what's going on in their lives or the simple fact that your car started this morning, you have hot water at home, you have shoes on your feet, a place to stay, these are things I think we've gotten so accustom to, but remember not everyone is blessed to have these things... start looking at the brighter side of things in all situations, shift your mind. Maybe your car didn't start   this morning but at least you have some sort of road service assis...

DND (do not disturb)

-
 Good afternoon everyone.. I hope everyone reading this is blessed and in good health.. I know I've spoke before on protecting your peace, mental health, etc. but I cant stress enough how important it is .. DND! I'm not even talking about your cell phone even though you can utilize that also when needing or searching for peace. We all need a break right? YES! Life is something else so having peace is vital! Why would you let someone disturb your peace anyway? Not worth it, no one knows how long we will be on this earth and we should take nothing for granted and live everyday like its our very last! Sometimes its needed to be on "DND,"  from your phone, work, even friends and family. Take time to recoup from that job, or being the "strong" person for others, from being that shoulder to lean on, just basically to reset and release DO WHAT YOU GOTTA DO! It's not rude or selfish its necessary! Everyone deserves a break! Remember to treat yourself sometimes...

A Beautiful Distraction

-
Whoooo, It's been a long time coming!!! I apologize for the wait I had a whole baby boy and didn't even know I was pregnant! 😲 Forreal! 5.5 months on October 29th Ill never forget, the doctor said you're half way done, do you want to know what your having???! #SayWhaaaaaaa so yeah that's why there hasn't been a post but I hope everyone is still manifesting and staying positive! Then I lost my domain because I've been pleasantly distracted by my son! ; D. I haven't done a blog, gym, work, everything is different now of course but that's life, it's not what happens but how you respond to it. And my pregnancy was a surprise! So that was definitely a curve ball for sure but I love him so much and thank God for my blessing. I think things happen in life, expected or not, always at divine timing, to teach you things etc etc in some shape, form, or fashion. Always remember to adjust positively and live in the moment. This has been my biggest distraction ye...
