Hey y'all Heyyyyyy.











I know it's been a while since I've tapped in and updated you on all things going on. I hope 2023 has been going pretty good for you. I know chile, life starts lifeining and we get caught up in those things and be like what happened?


Can I say the last five and a half months have felt like a year and half?
















No seriously? it's been long asf. Mainly because I've been making use of the time I've had and it's been full of different experiences. it's been a balancing act for sure and I've rose to the challenge every time. Now I'm saying that like oh, it's easy, it was nothing but in reality, it looked like this

Chilllle listen. life is not linear. It tends to look like a child's scribbled art on paper LOL.



But if one thing for sure and two thing's for certain, I can say, I'm ready. I'm ready for the next level. I'm ready for the good stuff, the playoff's if you will. I have positioned myself to be able to soar, or to receive the shit that I want. I deserve it. Rightfully so, It's my time.


One of the main things I've done that feels different is self prioritization. When I say that's a game changer. Listen. It's a must. It's necessary. When I say that, I mean, sitting with me, and really digging into, what do I want? Not on a superficial level, on a real ass level that makes me truly sit and think about all the areas of my life: financially, romantically, career, spiritually, all of um. Once I sat with me, I realized that ok, let's dig in. it's all cute on paper or the note section of your phone but you have to do the work.


I was ready to do the work. I did just that. It came with me taking jobs I wasn't thrilled about. But my end game was in mind. I had and still have complete tunnel vision because yes, I'm en route, but Im only just tapping in and scratching the surface. Let's go. Game time. Im ready to reap the benefits of the things that I've been putting in place.


You know it's something to be said about being resilient but hard working and fearless in pursuit of your goals. there are no guarantees or so it seems as your in the thick of it. But damnit, when I say that I have shit to do and I'm ready to get what I've been wanting, I really am.


We say things in a cliche fashion, like "I deserve this" or "I earned this". My response to this, is "and did" because I truly did. I have rose to the level of facing every challenge that I was confronted with. and my challenges weren't the usual. they were actually things that have fine tuned me. Things that made me shape up professionally or become sharper. I've realized that in order to get to a next level you have to meet the needs of the level you're on. Easier said than done, right?

What's required of you right now? What do you need to be giving? Are you focused? Are you giving it the level of attention it needs? Are you engaged? Like what's tea girl, what are you really doing to show that where you are has your full attention and what's your work ethic like. I have been giving my all or all that I can and it's been so beneficial to me. I mean let's be honest, yall know we can have some raggedy ways and then call ourselves being good at what we do, or working on ourselves and then expecting the damn world at our feet. Like sis, you be late to work, have a horrible attitude, ungrateful and always complaining. Just a whole ass wreck and want people to do business, life, or offer you opportunities. Girllll.


Oh, am I telling your business or my own?


















Yeah, we need that gut check sometimes because those old raggedy ways will not unlock new successful doors. We need to evaluate ourselves like sis what are you doing? are you ready to boss up and level up or you just wanna stay here? Because your actions are giving, basic and staying where you are? that's cool but what we doing just so I am clear? LMAOOOOO










I faced this and decided, it's game time. It wasn't always roses and sunshine but I toughed it out.


Now I'm ready and expecting the fruits of my labor, because chileeee, I did that. I know I have greatness coming. I'm learning it doesn't have to be perfect, it just has to be clear. Clear intentions mixed with consistency and discipline. Listen If you looking for a recipe there is is. Do the work, bro. You can't shortchange the work or discipline. If you want it bad enough, you'll do it.


Now listen, when Auntie pops out like Janet at 50 with her baby, and billions don't say I aint told ya'll the secret sauce. LOL. I've adopted a mindframe of No Sis Left Behind(Person(s)). we are doing this together. It's my mission to have us all level up. Now I can't force you but Imma always give us the tools we need to become ready.


So with that being said......are you ready?











I tell you one thing I'm not ready for......Chris wants the warm summer weather but this body aint summa ready. Y'all mind your business as I unbig this body. You'll get what I give this summa and love it.






















Ya'll know I need help. But I'm being jokingly serious. HAHAHAH.


Til Next Time......


XOXO

In my SpongeBob voice “immmmm ready I’m ready” this was literally screaming at me! okay! It’s the part about life being like a child’s scribbling for me though because mannnnn! You literally don’t know what you’re going to get but one day it’ll turn into a beautiful picture— even then though it’ll never be flawless you just learn to accept the beauty in it. Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom with us😩🌹🥰

Thank you for your feedback. Tell me about it, life starts lifing and looking really raggedy. It's like ummm this aint it. But you make the changes necessary to get what you want, or stay where you are. Put up or shut up
