There is no switch that suddenly flips to allow you access the things you desire.
Healthy friendships take work.
Stable finances take work.
Healthy marriages take work.
Stable businesses take work.
Spiritual growth takes work.
Be deliberate.
Get up & Get it.
Part of being a man means acknowledging when you’re wrong, taking responsibility for your actions and accepting the consequences, regardless of how much you’d like to change things.
#NoteToSelf
Don't become so fixated on the thoughts of the things you don't (or are yet to) have that you forget to be grateful for the things you do have. You think what you currently have isn't worth being thankful for? Wait till you lose it.
There are days when you don't feel like praying, reading the Bible or doing anything.
Days when you're probably overwhelmed by your circumstances so you'd rather just listen to music & sleep.
Never forget that even in those moments, God still loves and is intentional about you.

If you knew how powerful your mouth/tongue is, maybe you'd become more mindful of the words you speak.
Words can heal, and they can hurt.
Words can make, and they can mar.
Words are seeds, with great impacts.
Don't let your mouth run by itself, guide it carefully.
@TheBeardedNegus Not gonna lie when I read it I immediately thought of you & this thing that we do when we share info
A: Gives logical uncomfirmed opinion
B: strongly agrees with A's opinion & tells it to C w/words like "They say, Trust me, I bet..."
C: is convinced, agrees & tells D & repeat
Think about someone you love, or someone whose love & attention you want. What value do you add to their lives? How do you make their lives better? Easier? And if you struggle to answer that honestly, or if you struggle to find time/energy to add value to their lives, rethink.
This thread has been created as a means of information for people throughout CARICOM/Caribbean region + diaspora who are interested in donating resources + other forms of relief to the people of St. Vincent and the Grenadines during the regional crisis of #LaSoufriereEruption. 🇻🇨
I will forever respect and support every single Caribbean nation state. Every one. We are so small, and often treated as so insignificant. Repeatedly life throws us some rhatid blows......And we always fight back. My heart is with you St. Vincent. #Rally
I have an MBA in finance
But I’ve learned 10x more about investing from listening to podcasts than I did in school
Here are 24 podcasts that I regularly listen to that will make you a better investor⬇️
You are more than:
Your bank account, your assets, your achievements, your successes, your failures, your faults, your lack, your trauma, your suffering, the pain you've received, the pain you've given. You are more.
Never forget that.
