While I leaving the bank the other day, a young lady pulled up and was staring at me. I guess it was because I was staring in her direction.   Why did her SUV have “whore” keyed on it? I stared longer than expected because I wanted to make sure I was seeing what I thought [...]

I told my little sister I would stop cursing, but I really don’t want to right now. But I will. I have to be a positive role model. And, if I hear her cursing I am almost certain I will be on channels 2,5,7,9 and FOX because old school traditions will kick in. So, to [...]

There was a conversation I needed to have that stressed me out for a couple months.  The emotions were high because it was someone really close to me.  It turned out OK. After that conversation, I’m finding it very easy to say what I need to say to other people.  Not that it is disrespectful; [...]

The Wait and Weight of Promise was Reverend January’s sermon topic today, and he was speaking to me.  He shared how Abraham and Sarah were waiting trying to have a baby, and she finally delivered at 89 or 90 years old (I forgot which age). Because Sarah didn’t believe she would have a baby even [...]

As of August 1, 2010, my new professional nickname is “Billion Dollar Blogger.”  This will be done through setting up and managing blogs, coaching and training. My event casting service will also contribute to my billion dollar status.  I will integrate blogging, live blogging, and social media and multimedia tools to make it all happen.  [...]

I told a couple people that I was fasting and their responses were, “I need to fast so I can lose weight” and “You look fine.” All I have to say to both of these people: Fasting is NOT a diet plan! Yes, you do lose weight when you fast but the purpose is to [...]

I thank God for people in my life who support me in my endeavors.  Sometimes it’s just a matter of listening to me rant and rave about a whole lot of things they don’t understand, but they encourage me anyway. As I near financial independence with The Write Design Company, I get overly excited.  I [...]

People mistake tears for weakness.  Sometimes you have to have a big, hearty cry for emotional and spiritual cleansing.  It’s OK to breakdown, have a fit and release all your frustrations as long as the pity party ends.  And when it’s over, you will  either be heavy or walking on air because the weight has [...]

If someone gives you compliment but adds a sarcastic negative remark, is it still a compliment? I was told that I would reach my goal – it may take awhile – but I’ll get there.  Was that extra stuff really necessary? Anyway, this person called himself being positive and encouraging, but there was always a [...]

I hate when people argue with me about things I know that are absolutely true. I hate when people tell me things about me even though they have not a clue about me or what I do. I hate the parking meters in Chicago. I hate the low status of black people in America even [...]
