Keep Standing

-



Do you feel like giving up sometimes? Just runaway and never have to deal with work, people or things ever again? Yeah, sometimes, I just want to disappear too! Life is rough and isn't supposed to be easy, but you have to keep encouraging yourself to do better. There will always be hurdles that we have to get over and mountains to climb. I like my current job and what I do, but I believe I deserve better and higher pay! Today I took a leap and applied to multiple positions outside of the current government agency I work for. For those who know me, know that I have been working for the same agency since I was 17 yrs. old. So applying elsewhere is a big leap for me! But, it was God who gave me the courage to do so. You have to believe in order to see things happen. But more importantly, remember that Faith without Work is Dead! You have to put in the work, believe that it will happen and it will. Take Fearless for example! I learned a quick lesson last week. I thought I was ready to launch my dream. Ready to make Fearless more than just a blog. BUT things did not go as planned. Failure to plan and failure to prepare causes things to crumble. I secretly wanted to give up because I was tired of thinking of new creative ideas. Who will believe in you if you don't believe in yourself? I cannot be Fearless if I just throw in the towel every time something doesn't go my way. Mistakes and hiccups are there to learn and to grow. If you never fall, how can you get back up? My dreams will come true, what about yours?

THE FOUR P's:
Pray - Ask God for guidance and He will show you the way.
Plan - Think of all the ins and outs of what you want to do. 
Prepare - What do you need to make your dream come true? Gather all your materials, but also get your mind, body and spirit ready for it too.
Promote - When its time and ready, SHOW THE WORLD WHAT YOU ARE MADE OF. Invite friends/family into your world and always reward yourself.

Live Your Dream...Do What You Love

Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" has always been my favorite scripture. My mother always taught me that the sky is the limit, but with Him is how we can achieve our potential. It wasn't until my junior year of college that I realized how truly fearless I can be. God spoke to me to instill a clear vision for my life...a life of FEARLESSNESS in Him that I could have never imagined.  2befearless is a lifestyle brand - a brand that serves a community of confident and courageous believers who inspire others to embrace and overcome fear. For those who don't know, I served as a class queen at Morgan State University and ran for Miss Morgan on the platform...FEARLESS. Since then, that word has stuck to me. The dream to continue to mold Fearless into something bigger than myself never died. Hint. This blog! :) This blog was just a start after graduating college in 2015. God kept revealing all these great ideas to me and at first I felt l

Boy Mom

Who would have known that your 3yr old son could be your best friend?! Being a mother truly brings so much joy to my heart. Each and every day, I am reminded of the great reward of being someone's mother. Sure, it causes you to be tired, it brings you stress at times and worry, but I would not trade it for anything else! My son has taught me to be patient, he has challenged me to become a better person and work even harder. I am the first example of a woman he sees and I want him to know that we are strong, caring, nurturing and hard working. Being a "boy mom" is so much fun! The energy that Mason brings everyday is so amazing. He definitely keeps me on my toes and keeps me moving even when I don't feel like getting out of bed. Especially since he loves to wake up between 6:30-7am on the weekends. lol It is something about that mother/son bond that is so untouchable. You better not cross me because my son will come for you! lol He always knows when I am in need for

Stages Of Life

As much as we wish it did, parenthood does not come with a rule book! If you are a parent, God made you equipped for it, so trust that you are doing right by your children. After listening to a sermon from my pastor, I decided to share what I learned. I realized that our parenthood is based on the stage that our children is in. Of course they change as they continue to grow and learn new things. As they change, we need to change! What worked when they were little, will not fly as they get older.                                                          Ages 0-5 - (The Discipline Years.) During this age, we should be teaching our children obedience. All direction should be straight forward and to the point. I’m not going to lie, this is something I struggled with and still do at times. Being the nice guy all the time, going back on my word or trying to explain why the answer is no. We need to be straightforward because this is the beginning of their lives. They are beginning to understan
