Right now, some lyrics I’ve been meditating on come from a song by Rising Appalachia featuring Aja Black of the Reminders called, “Hungry World.” The lyrics go, “Get it right now, get it good. Everybody’s walking around these days a little misunderstood. Hear the crying of the voice of the earth within yourself; stand in solidarity, discernment, and wealth. Give it up to the great turning, the tapestry not yet woven in your life in your heart, now’s the time now’s the moment. Walk along the bridge between urgency and patience. There’s a moral nerve to be found with the ancestors, the ancients. It’s a hungry hungry world, don’t let them devour you whole. Come work on a building, it’s laughing and full.” The world has changed so much, and technology seems to be taking over the world. Read more>>

My favorite quote is from the bible. Psalms 139: 13-14: “For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well God created me differently and special. This reminds me to embrace what makes me me.

There are so many quotes that i love, it’s really hard to choose just one. Definitely, though, one of my favorite quotes is “Talk is cheap. Action is worth It. Reaching your goals are priceless…” I’m not sure who to credit for the quote unfortunately, but this quote means a lot to me at this point in my life. I feel as though i’m finally at a point where i can put my dreams, goals, and aspirations in true perspective. And one day at a time, i use quotes like this, etc., to self-motivate and execute. It’s a great feeling to see the results of that process. Read more>>

“A business owner jumps off a cliff and grows their wings on the way down” – Unknown I’ve lived this every single day since I started my business. Learning from mistakes, solving problems on the fly, improvising when something new comes up, and not having answers to questions but somehow finding a solution. I’ve learned a lot about running a small business, building new and keeping existing relationships, marketing and presenting my physical and virtual self, and so much more that I was never be exposed to at my normal job or college. I still have a lot to learn, but I now approach challenges as growth opportunities rather than barriers. Read more>>

I have two favorite quotes/affirmation’s! The first one is by the Great Dr. Suess: “Today I shall behave as if this is the day I will be remembered”. I passionately live by this quote daily and I love the outcome everyday. Waking up and putting the Armor of God on I say to myself “How can I add today where I left off from yesterday”? I humbly can say when you are destined to make changes in the world you have to be aware, it won’t be an easy task. We have to walk out of our homes daily with our head up, chest out and walk heel to toe proudly. Some people say it’s arrogance but I call it being a child of God because my Heavenly Farther didn’t design me to walk with my head down. With this being said, I strive to be the person I was designed to be. My daily purpose is led and all my steps are ordered by God. I want people to be impacted by my spirit and my kindness as well as love. Read more>>

I have an affirmation that I try and say everyday which is: “I’m enough!” That small affirmation is a reminder to myself that no matter what life throws my way I am capable of handling it. I have dealt with extreme insecurities over my lifetime, but that small affirmation reminds me to look deeper than my insecurities and soar to greatness. Read more>>
