Money to be made

In this economy that we live in working a nine to five just won't cut it. Job stands for Just Over Broke. I mean I'm not knocking anyone who is content with a job but personally I want more. This blog is my first step to my corporation II Chance. However, until I make it there I have other things that I do on the side. I mean think about it....What is something that you are good at and enjoy doing? Do you like to cook? Then cater some dinners or lunches to family, friends, and local businesses. Please make sure you don't just like to cook but know how to cook and are a clean person. Or if you love to be in the presence of kids then childcare might be field for you. My latest venture is selling shades and accessories to supplement some extra income. The goal in whatever you do is to see some type of profit. Even in the toughest economy there is money to be made. There is no excuse for anyone not to make some type of money somehow because God has blessed us all with a talent it just may take some soul searching for you to find it.

To One Heck of A Week!

I don't know about you but I am glad that this week is finally coming to an end. Mentally all this week I've been so focused on a new car that I can taste it but financially my bank acct says child boo. I'm still expecting favor from somewhere because when I meditate on something to long I get it.This week as well I've learned to see people for who they are. Some are backstabbers and others users and then there's the ones who keep it real and stand tall beside me. Special thanks goes to them all because now that I can see with my eyes wide open my blessings should have room to pour in. Through each day this week I learned something new. My goal is to stay positive and let me be the first to say it's not easy. The devil stay busy and tries to constantly play tricks with your mind. For instance I was sitting at a red light and all of a sudden I heard a loud thumb and all I could think about was something else mechanical had just went wrong with my car. Come to find out it was my brakes. If it ain't one thing it's another but my God will make a way. You see we must keep a positive outlook on things in order to receive positive results. So tell me about your week and how you can turn that negative into a positive and if you don't know then let me help you find a way!

Ignorance

I've touched on this subject before on facebook but it really bothers me how ignorant some people can be. Ignorance is shown in a person in more ways than one. Some people you notice it as soon as they open their mouth. Others you can see it in their actions. I'm at the point I'm just sick of ignorant people. They really should have paid more attention in school. For example the saying misery loves company is often quoted by the ones that are really miserable. Just ignorant!!! Comon sense would tell you that if you are happy and content with your life then you will be so overwhelmed with those things that you won't have time to focus on others and what they may have to say. Or the person that they claim to be miserable really just might be trying to be a friend and put them up on game. SMH! I will admit yes I too have expierenced the straight ignorant moments but fortunately I have grown wiser with age and expierence. Ignorance is bliss so therefore I've learned to keep those type of people as far away as possible.

Friends

These past couple of years has really taught me the true meaning of friendship. Three years ago I lost someone very important to me as I did not value our friendship as I should have. I thank God that he brought us back together and I will never let her leave me again. No homo but that's my boo. Along the way though I have meant some very interesting people. Some that didn't quite make the cut and others that I clicked with automatically. Then there were the phonies. Yeah they were what you call a wolf in sheep's clothing. I did not listen to others and what they had to say I guess it took for me to find out on my own. Some it's taken decades and I see things will never change. God has blessed me now with the knowledge though to let go and grow with the ones that are willing to be there for me every step of the way. A true friend doesn't wait months and months before they call you to check on you when they have not had any type of communication with you. A true friend knows when that smile is fake and there's something wrong. A true friend not only hears but sees the pain in your eyes and is going to be there for you through whatever it may be that you are going through. A true friend loves you for who you are not what they can get out of you. A true friend will tell it to you like it is whether you like it or not because it's all in love. A true friend will never do or say anything that could cause you great harm. A true friend is always happy for your accomplishments whether big or small and is always looking for ways to help you reach your goal. There are so many more things that a true friend is but the one thing a true friend isn't is an enemy!

Self Esteem

So often do I hear people complain about so many things that are going on in their life but they never do anything to change. When you know better you do better so why stay stuck? The reason why is because they have low self esteem. Low self esteem sometimes doesn't show just by looking at a person on the outside. It shows by what they let come out of their mouth. A person that always has something negative to say about someone else has low self esteem. They feel they have to always down someone else to make them feel better when really it only makes you look worst. Another sign of low self esteem is seen in so many women that feel that they have to have a man in they life so bad that they will put up with his cheating, lies and the fact that he has nothing to offer you. I have been single for quite some time and I love it. Yeah you get lonely sometimes but I'd rather be by myself than be up crying my eyes out because of a man. We as women really need to learn to get it together. A man doesn't define a woman. It's a woman that defines a man!!!

Where it all began!

I have learned that throughout all that I have endured that my happiness and well being of my children matter the most. If you know me than you know my story but if you don't saddle up because I'm about to take you to some places you would not dream of ever going to. Now for purposes of my security I can't let you all in on everything but for the most part I am willing to discuss anything. I can honestly say I have been there and done that. I'm not a licensed counselor but I have life as a professor. Anything discussed can and will remain strictly confidential so tell me what's on your mind.
