Giving Too Much Will Hinder...

-

Women have the hardest time saying “No”. We are nurturing and giving by nature. There are times we catch ourselves doing for others and we don’t even realize it. We must learn to take hold of the hardest task which is simply saying, “No, you do it.” Think of your greatest accomplishments, you didn’t just breeze thru the finish line, you suffered long enduring hours. The benefit of doing it yourself is priceless. It took me a long time to realize I was hindering my brothers by always wanting to help them in any way possible. In some cases the biggest reward is when you’re pushed off the deep end and forced to swim on your OWN. ‘Give’ when you can, but also realize the greatest gift you can give someone is the support and confidence in knowing they can do it on their own.

    Hey I totally agree. My mom spoiled me! When I was a child, I'd make up my bed. However, she would fix it again because she said I didn't do it right. Eventually, I just stopped making it up because I'd figure she'd do it anyways. I'm now a grown man and hate (and rarely do) make up my bed...smh. Thanks mom.

I Am Rich

I am rich in Faith. I am rich in Good Health. I am rich in Love. I am rich in Freedom. I am rich in Happiness. I am rich in Peace. I am rich in Family. I am rich in Friends. I am rich in heart. God has given us so many Blessings. Everywhere your eye can see there are Blessings for us to enjoy.   Such Blessings include the sun to warm our skin, the breeze to blow our hair, wonderful smells to enlighten our senses, stories to warms our hearts, music to move our feet, and food to speak to our souls.   Why on earth would anyone think of themselves as anything less than rich? The answer is simple.   There are many differentiations of the term rich.   For example, the definition of rich is to have a great deal of money or assets.   According to the Wall Street Journal, a net worth of $1.4 Million will put you in the top 5% of Americans.   Yet, the wealthy today view this figure as chump change.   This just goes to show you we all view being rich differently.   I decided to

I Need Good Lovin

Picture Provided By Level21 Magazine.  Everyone needs love.  However, I constantly meet new, amazing people who are all in need of love & expecting to find it in a lover! Please don't hate me for what I'm about to say, but my heart is screaming--  You must love yourself first, no one can do it for you. Oh my goodness, it kills me to see a young, vibrant woman jump out of a relationship immediately run straight into another one.  It saddens me to hear someone cry about wanting & needing love but not willing to do the work themselves.  The best and most concrete form of love is to first love yourself.  There is no man or women in the world that can love you better.  We need to stop hoping & praying that this new person who is going to love the socks off of your feet will be able to give the kind of love you need for all time.  This is one main reason relationships do not last. We are putting too much weight on our lovers to make us happy.  You must have your

Today is my last day with WBTV

This is a bitter sweet moment for me.   I am very sad to leave behind a family here at WBTV.   Every single person has welcomed me into the newsroom with open arms.   Each person has taught me something along the way whether they literally sat down and verbalized it to me or simply displayed it in their character.   With so much talent in one building I must say I am truly honored to be amongst such an amazing group of individuals.   I will miss the entire crew- THANK YOU for everything! The reason for my departure is to begin a new venture with Fox Charlotte.   I have been offered a dream job as a meteorologist and reporter. More importantly, this position is aligned with opportunity for growth so I immediately blurted out, “Where do I sign” (lol). I am excited to enter unfamiliar territory for I am a lover of knowledge.   I have officially started reading my first weather book titled, “The Atmosphere”.   In life there are times God will speak to us loudly and boldly.   This
