Losing joy for the dream
“Sis, I don’t think Nursing is for me. I’ve always wanted to be one, but I can’t pass the entrance to get into college, no matter how much I try or apply,” were the words my church sister said to me on the phone. “How is it that something you’ve always dreamed of doing and…

Speak less
For awhile now, I’ve been juggling with the idea of starting a podcast. The moniker and content will be the same, but done with a minor twist. Occasionally, I’ll peruse the internet comparing and pricing the equipment, only to do just that, and nothing more. As a promise I made to myself, I’m not going…

Still there
Am I the only one who still makes a vison board? Better yet, am I the only one who still sees and believes the vision? Like everyone else, I have my days of unbelief, and a few days ago, was one of them. l was not feeling my best, and started to give up on…

Until it’s a reality
“Your life is like a stock chart. Stocks take dips so when your life takes a dip, it ain’t (the) time to trip. It ain’t (the) time to sell the stock. You have to remember, you are a blue-chip stock.” ~Steve Harvey In a few weeks, I’ll be releasing my 4th book, Surviving the wait. How I learned to…

Clear the way
I have a 7-year-old niece who thoroughly enjoys hitting flips. Whether she’s flipping across the floor, on me, or from sofa to sofa, she is quite the acrobat. Whenever I’d yell for her to “stop flipping or you’ll hurt yourself,” she always replies, “I’m a gymnasts. It’s what I’m supposed to do.” Granted she does…

THE CHASE
YOU ARE ABOUT TO TAKE THE RIDE OF YOUR LIFE! IN FACT, IT’S PROBABLY ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT ONES YOU’VE EVER TAKEN. THIS IS SOMETHING YOU’VE ALWAYS “DREAMED” OF, AND THE THOUGHT OF IT BECOMING A REALITY, IS MORE THAN YOU CAN STAND. AS YOU PREPARE TO EMBARK UPON THIS JOURNEY, YOU WILL ENCOUNTER…

Discredited dreams
You’re excited! I mean, really, really excited and you want everyone to hear about it. You can barely contain yourself, because things are about to get “real”……..your dreams, that is. Until, you find out that what’s everything to you, is nothing more than a “fantasy” to someone else. In fact, they have a hard time…

Fervent pursuit
What do you want out of life? Better yet, are you waiting for life to bring it to you? If so, what happens if you don’t get it? Do you continue to wait, or do you get up and go get it? There’s nothing I’ve ever been more passionate about, than writing. I eat, sleep…

Keep Dreaming
One of my favorite stories in the Bible, is found in Genesis 37. It’s the story of Joseph, the son of Jacob and Rachel. Before you run, I’m not going to preach a sermon, but I want you to understand the importance of “sharing your dreams”. Joseph was the youngest of 12 boys, and also…
