I have to constantly re-identify myself to myself, reactivate my own standards, my own convictions about what I’m doing and why. ~ Nina Simone

One thing I love about older friends is they don't obsess over your goals. They ask if you're taking care of yourself, if you're happy, and if you're making time for the things that bring you joy.

I’m in love with this sentence:

“After getting what you manifested, ask for discipline to keep it and wisdom to multiply it.”

you have to believe me when i tell you that going out and experiencing life is really the best medicine for improving your art and writing and restoring your passion

“Without commitment, you will never start. Without consistency, you will never finish.”

— Denzel Washington

[blue @bluewmist]

your relationship with discipline changes so much when you shift from doing things from love rather than shame. from 'i have to clean'- to realizing i deserve to have a clean home. from 'i need to work out'- to i deserve to have a healthy body. you deserve the best from yourself

I love being the kind of woman you don’t come across twice. Not because of how I look, but because of how I love, how I think, and how I move. In a world full of temporary energy, I am intentional. Solid. Rare.

[COCO @TWOTIMESABITCH]

sometimes i accidentally accept the bare minimum trying to be considerate of what others are going through and that is a habit i need to let go of expeditiously

Queen Nanny of the Maroons.
Born 1686: Ghana 🇬🇭
Died 1733/1750: Jamaica 🇯🇲

For over 30 years, it is said she fought and freed over 800 enslàved people on the island of Jamaica. There are many stories about her, it is said she was a queen in Ghana from the warrior Ashanti tribe when she was captured and brought to Jamaica where she later escaped and led an armed revolt against the British Empire in the mountains and jungles of Jamaica for two decades.

It is said she used guerilla warfare to fight the British who suffered great loss and later settled with a peace treaty to spare their men. She was said to also be a powerful spiritual voodoo priestess who would use her powers to shield her fighters from the attacks of the British.

One British officer who was lucky to survive her encounter described her as being small, muscular, and strong with intense eyes. She wore a girdle with at least 10 different combat kn iv es. Queen Nanny is Jamaica's only female hero, and there are still Maroons living in Jamaica today.

An overthinking woman doesn't want constant reassurance. she wants consistent behavior so her mind can finally stop expecting the worst.

You can’t heal with someone who’s more offended by your reaction than accountable for what caused it.

The older I get, the more I realize that speaking your mind bluntly and directly is the fastest way to build relationships with the right people.

Consideration.

Going back to our sacred ancestral knowledge systems is part of the revolution as well
