My Son Changed My View of Men

God does everything for a reason. When I found out I was having a son the way I viewed men changed. I realized that I wanted to be the type of woman I’d want my son to marry and respect. That pretty much changed how I presented myself and how I treated his father.

Have you had a similar reality check? 

See the Best During the Worst

Just because a situation looks hopeless doesn’t mean it is. The biggest lie we can tell ourselves is things can’t get better and it’s out of our control. You can not control everything that happens to you but you do have authority over what happens next. 

Positive thinking doesn’t mean smiling all the time. It means always be optimistic even in the lowliest of situations. It means seeing Rainbows during a storm. It means seeing recovery after accidents. It means seeing love after heartbreak. It means seeing opportunity after failure. It means being open to better after the worst. 

We choose how we see the world!

3 Knowledge Bombs for Moving Forward in Life

If there is anything I know a lot about, it’s self motivation. Being the oldest child of a single mom warrants a lot of “figure it out on your own”. There will be times that all you’ll have is you!!!! You’ve got to use everything you were born with to your advantage. I’m not just talking looks. I’m talking about God given hustle, personality and common sense. 

Here are a few Knowledge Bombs to keep you going:
1. Don’t be discouraged by the effort it takes to achieve what you desire.
2. Believe in your own ability to learn quickly and perform efficiently.
3. Don’t let lack of credentials stop you from going after what you want.
Now use what you got to get what you want. ( I bet you don’t remember what movie that’s from lol)
