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 toContinue reading “Until it’s a reality”

It’s not the end of you
This is the last day of the year, and there’s one last thing I want you all to know……. You may have not accomplished all you’ve set out, let alone anything, and that’s okay. It’s not the end! You may have incurred some losses, whether it be people or a job, and that’s okay. It’sContinue reading “It’s not the end of you”
Reserved
You’re about to make your big debut, and you’ve invited everyone to come. Amongst the chatter and excitement, your supporters began to take their seats, and they can’t help but notice the front row is completely empty. As people began to look around, they’re perplexed, to say the least, because your family is sitting inContinue reading “Reserved”

Running without hindrance
I’ve never been a fan of track and field, largely in part, because it required me to run. While I appreciate physical activity, walking is much more my “speed”. Besides, running requires a lot of stamina and endurance, and oftentimes, I have very little of the two. However, what I do know I have, isContinue reading “Running without hindrance”
The Layover
I’m stuck, and I have been for quite some time now As each day passes, I can’t help but wonder if I’ll ever board Or will I continue to experience yet another delay?

Don’t Stop!
I am beyond blessed, to have had the privilege to speak with low-income, first generation high school students, at a high school located in Alabama! As a Motivational Speaker, one of the things I pride myself on, is being authentic and most important, transparent with my audience. As I made the 3.5hr drive to speakContinue reading “Don’t Stop!”
Miles Away
You want it…..you can smell….you can even taste it, yet it’s so far away. Success requires hard work, yet some people don’t want to do what it takes to get it, because the distance is a little farther than they’d like to go. You see, some people just aren’t willing to go the extra mile,Continue reading “Miles Away”
Broken Ladders
Barbara and Jane have been friends for years, and no matter how many arguments or disagreements they’ve had, they refused to let anything come between them….well, anything but success. You see, Barbara is more successful than Jane. Let’s pretend for a moment, that money equates to success (in some people’s eyes, this is true). BarbaraContinue reading “Broken Ladders”
