Life is what you make it, well what will I make of my life. I feel like I've done a lot, I've experience a lot, found love and lost love and through it all I hold my head in hopes of a brighter day.
This summer, has been the best so far. My girls and I have traveled, danced the night away and become closer than ever. Before the summer started I made up in my mind that I was going to enjoy life for once and not be hindered by my past. I set my goals and I reached them.
So now I'm writing because I hope to encourage others to do the same, set your goals and strive to reach them. Many people go through life giving up on themselves, with no hope to succeed. I am here to tell you, don't be one of those people. Inspire to be great beyond your means, inspire to be successful, brilliant, and financially stable. Don't settle for what the haters of your past have tried to subject you to, instead rise above all the doubts that were suppressed upon you and become a winner. Become who you are destined to be. and set your own life expectation, living up to your own standards.
Over the summer I read Hill Harper's "Letter's to a Young Sister; DeFINE your Destiny", such an inspirational book. In his book he outlines goals we as young women neglect to have. Goals such as seeking financial freedom, having self-love for one self, and experiencing independenence. This book has literally changed my life in a way that I am encouraged to do better as well as determined to be great. I have never read a book that touch so many subjects that I was familiar with from self love, sex, financial freedom, educational importance and overcoming your haters. This book sets out the guidelines for life expectations and how to define your destiny, not the destiny someone has outlined for you.
While reading this book I recalled a sermon I once heard by Rev T.D. Jake's in the sermon he stated "Take your Life by the Throat and Live it to the fullest" I want you to remember this quote and know that in spite of what hard balls life has thrown your way, no matter what your haters might say, whatever the circumstance was. Live out Your expectations and live life to the fullest in spite of the odds.
Be Blessed
