Social Media

Social Media 


Over the past few years we have been changing as a society with Social Media. Social Media in my opinion is one of the most beautiful tools we have access to. Over the last 2 days I have connected with old friends, business partners, and old associates. 

One young lady I hadn't spoken to in over 3 years found me on linked in. She told her partner I had a daycare which led us to reconnecting. 

During the conversation not only did I find out she had my book, Markita's Lost Diary and Billionaire Brown's  The Real Silver Dollar, some how she ended up with an autographed copy!!! 

Autographed copies are very exclusive and she had one. Now this weekend we are having lunch and catching up with each other. 

This goes to show how connected we really are. We are a few clicks away from one another. Just like anything else. We can use this for our benefit or we can abuse it. We can use it for good or we can use it for drama. 

Social Media forces one to THINK BIG! I mean what else is there to do?   
NOTHING! 

Think BIG and think of all the ways you can make social media a benefit for you and your friends.

The Gift of Yourself


The Gift of Yourself
: That identical one that is you: you’re normal, healthy, or sane condition or self: oneself

MOMENT OF REFLECTION
The most precious gift you can give someone is yourself; you are a gift to anyone who comes in contact with you. Taking the time to share our talents, our most precious commodity TIME, and sharing our love is remarkable. It becomes extraordinary when we come to the realization that our time, talents, and love are not just here to serve ourselves, but to be shared with others. We were born with these wonderful gifts to be presented and unwrapped for the world to embrace. You are a gift that keeps on giving so pass along a smile today, someone needs you.
   
CAPTURE THE MOMENT CHALLENGE

I Committed Suicide

I committed suicide. 
Today was a day that was character building. It was a day that I will never forget. I received an unexpected call from an associate in business. You know me I am like hello what's up and she begins to ask me some personal business questions about someone she mutually does business with. She was beginning to get loud and I was also. I was calming down when I began to realize how petty I sounded forgetting totally about her. Cat fight LOL...

Then I made the right decision I believe and ended the call in a diva/professional way. I was being questioned about my business transactions and my ethics with this person. Someone who I knew was satisfied with my services. Now follow me here.
 I began to think some crazy things about him. I thought he was the cause of her rage and the cause of all that happened. I thought because I was not satisfied with his services and he knew it. I really believed he was trying to sabotage my business.... 

My BFF said, " you think all of this and you haven't even spoken to him yet. At least give him a fair chance.  I agreed with my BFF because he was  right. Give this guy a the opportunity to clear himself. Now to my astonishment when I spoke to him everything I thought was WRONG. I used my skills and I let him talk. He was satisfied with my services. He was confused by everything but he was NOT the monster I thought he was. BOOM I SHOT MY SELF...
I shot ALL my thoughts, I shot them ALL . 

 My thoughts are to serve me not for me to serve them. I use them to give me the best perspective of people... The old me I thought I was will now give EVERYONE a fair deal.... 

I have committed suicide. Here's the new me.
