Someone Needs You to Win

Due to unexpected trials I have not taken the time to write lately, but I feel at this moment I have something to share. No matter what you may be going through, Someone Needs You to Win. When you are feeling low, as if your existence doesn't matter, or you sit idle on various ideas that need your attention, you are hurting someone. An individual that needs to hear your story is suffering because you won't open your mouth. There comes a point when you must asses what your pain is worth. Often when we loose something or someone we ignore what others may be going through, but if your pain can protect another then providing their protection has instantly become your job. I understood today that, Someone Needs Me to Win. There is someone that has crossed or will cross my path, and they need me to get over my situation and move forward. This does not mean that we ignore our own tribulations, but it does mean that we realize another person's fait depends on whether or not we survive. It may be your child, cousin, co-worker, friend or complete stranger that relies on the outcome of one of your decisions. Even if the people closest to you seem to be holding you back, you have a purpose. Never forget, no matter what you are going through, Someone Needs You to Win.

Because I said So

This world is not made for those that are unsure of themselves, or at least America isn't. During situations that you are required to be assertive, allow your mind to tell you "Because I said So". This answer gives many people the certification they need to move through the day. Why should you be any different? Please do not misunderstand me. I am not telling you that you will always be right. I am however telling you that you can't possibly always be wrong. Whenever you feel like you know your job or are clear on your responsibilities, do not allow anyone to diminish your certainty. Tell yourself "Because I said So" and move on with your day.

One Way or Another

BET recently had a casting call searching for a new face to host one of their shows. Many people went home sad because they were not chosen, however you must choose yourself. When you really decide that you want to do something no casting director can tell you no. One Way or Another you must develope the drive to achieve the things you want even if you are turned down everyday of your life. Redirect your strategy and continue to work towards your goals. One Way or Another you will achieve them.

Find Your Mind

There is someone that wants to make you loose it, however it is your responsibility alone to hold your pieces together. There are people that want you to live to please them, but what if you never do. I am not willing to be unhappy to make satisfy someone else that I may never satisfy. If someone has stolen your thoughts or your attention Find Your Mind and be happy, or you never will.

You Must Build Something

What is your value? Why are you on this planet? If you are not improving something or creating something you are worthless. Even if you improve the life of someone who will be grateful to have been in the same space with you at a particular time it is an accomplishment. I know someone who has reduced their once vibrant useful life into a life that serves the purpose of complaining, which is in my opinion, purposeless. Past accomplishments can not carry you forever. You Must Build Something , it doesn't have to be monumental like the Sears Tower in Chicago or Pulitzer prize winning, but You Must Build Something or you have no reason to survive. Even if it is a little something that you build, it is proof that you are of value and contribute to the world. You are a part of something that needs you, without you that something will die. That something may be the relationship that you have with a friend, co-worker or child, but you must deliver your purpose, or something that requires your grace, strength, love and attention is dying and you have not noticed it. Maybe something extreme happened to you that you need to deal with , but if destructive worthless complaining or behavior is how you deal with it then you allow that situation to carry on forever. You Must Build Something , otherwise the things and people that require your special productive attention will crumble along with your self worth, confidence and value. Build something today, even a small something will do. And don't become OFFENDED or DEFENSIVE after reading this, it is a continued waist of your time. Just Build Something, and try not to tear another thing down or rip another thing apart. If you have been tearing something apart STOP! and never do it again, finishing your job of destruction is not and excuse. You Must Build Something!
