LET YOUR HATERS BE YOUR MOTIVATOR!! JOIN MHAM!

I remember when I was  ruthless.  A brutal reactor.  A merciless time bomb.  A vicious presser cooker.  “Off the chain” is what some people would say! I remember  boldly  confronting this individual that I thought had wrong me and telling them very aggressively that I was 007 ( James Bond ) and that it would “behoove”  them not to ever  try  me. I was audaciously fearless. I believed that I was that powerful.  It actually had gotten to a point that other people would tell me something someone said just to see how I would react.  It was “Showtime at the Apollo” for them. I am so glad that period of my life was brief.   I am writing this blog to let you know how I turned that explosive energy into a positive.  I learned that when I got that angry and upset that I was giving that person power over me.  I was passed over for a promotion on a job that I was clearly qualified for and the person who was promoted to the position was best friend s with the boss.  I decided that day to apply for law school. I applied for several schools and now I am a months away from graduation.  Still to this day when something happens that is upsetting or someone does something intentional or non-intentional to me, I spend more time writing on my upcoming books.   I think it is ok to get a little ticked off but not to a point where you are consumed with it or you step outside of yourself.  Use that energy or stress for something more important!  I think about my aunt (May she rest in peace) She was a very sweet person but to me she was 007 (James Bond) She would snap if you angered her in any way.  Years back at the airport, they had a “Red Chair” for people that were daring reactors. Well my aunt was put in the “Red Chair”.  The sassy young blonde at the airport counter was popping off at the mouth and being really ugly to my aunt. You do not want to know what my aunt did!  But I guess that is why they increased airport security and added more air marshals.  You all will have to read Syrup Sandwich and Sugar Water, when it is released!  Nonetheless, I brought my aunt up to say that years ago they put you in a chair to calm you down, these days they take you to jail and then you are sued for mental anguish. So again, save that stress for something important! Do not waste it on a hater.    Now if you are a hater and know it, please just stop.  You are blocking your blessing.  On the other hand; if you are being hated on, know that you are not alone.  Hold your head up high because you are a part of a prestigious group. MHAM (My Haters Are Motivators  Club).  All MHAM members know that I love ya. We will be electing officers soon, any interested party please leave your name and what office you would like. Anyone interested in joining  MHAM  please leave your name. Thanks, hope this helps and  talk to you soon.

My Brain is my body guard!!!!

The brain has an exceptional way of protecting itself. I Think.  I look back on times when I was so terribly upset about something that I couldn’t even sleep.   And I try to recall some of those events in my life and it is difficult to achieve.  Hence, I am just cooperating with my brain at this point in my life.  If my brain refuses to bring those bad memories forward then ok, I am cool with that.  But what is awesome about my brain is it lets me recall fun and happy events in my life.  I remember when I was six years old and we were out outside on the school yard and this huge beautiful butterfly was flying among all the children and everyone was laughing and chasing it. I was just standing there laughing and smiling. And this beautiful butterfly flew directly into my hands.  All of the kids were amazed and gathered around me like I was a movie star. I felt special.  As I released the butterfly back into the sky,   I felt empowered.  So I am going to let my bodyguard continue to protect me.  I would love to hear some comments on something good that your remarkable brain held on too.  I hope your day went well today, if it did not, just know that it will probably be one of those days you brain goes into bodyguard mode.    It was a pleasure talking to you today. Talk to you soon.

My First Blog!! Winning! I Think? ..LOL!

Fist Pump!!  Fist Pump!!!  I am here.  LOL. My very first blog.   Don’t take what I write too serious.  But if I can make you laugh or feel better today.  Go for It!   Let me tell you a little something about me.  I love people. I love helping others. And I love to laugh and see people happy.   I will say one personal thing about me and then you can make up your own opinion up of me. One of the top things on my bucket list is to dance as a guest on the Ellen DeGeneres Show, so if you know somebody or have any suggestions, connections, let me know.  !!!  My blogs will be all over the place. Like me. However I guarantee I will get you where you need to be.  That happy place.  My very first book (A Romance in The Cotton Field) went “live” this week. I know you can get it at barnesandnoble.com; amazon.com and several other places.  It is worth reading.   I have a few others in the works; Syrup Sandwich and Sugar Water...Don’t act like you don’t know about that!   And Poisoned by Corporate America... Honey child I have some stories to tell. I know you all know about that too.  Shaking my head...ump...ump...ump.  It was a pleasure talking to you today.  Talk to you soon!
