Busy Signal - Well Prepared

If you lack self-esteem and confidence in general, I'm afraid you can't inherit that. You have to understand yourself and know who you are. Your presence should symbolize a strong and a healthy you. Don't be present just to belong or feel forced to fit in the picture. Have courage to stand by your word. 

Your posture says and tells a lot about who you are. Stand tall and let your footsteps be as solid on the ground. The firmer the footprints, the less the chances the rain will wash the footprints away. Be able to talk the walk and walk the talk, yes, Johnny Walker way... :) In all, be you, and I be me.

You can't take it with you, so do the most that you can while you are here on earth. Many want to be remembered in a special way after they transition to the next phase, the world of the unknown. But for this to happen, you must do good on earth and leave behind a legacy. 

What kind of fortune are you accruing and where are you investing? It is not about the money and resources, but the love, trust, faith and purity for life that makes your legacy worthwhile. 

Do you share your positive experiences with others? Do you acknowledge your weaknesses and turn them to strengths while uplifting the people around you? 

As people we all have our work cut out for us. All we have to do is have a mission for each day. When you wake up, ask yourself: what is my goal and how can I achieve it before the sun sets? Do you want to be remembered for your bank account? Or do you want to be honored for your humility and advocacy for change? Maintain your cohesion and follow your dreams. One day your dream will come to existence. Even after you have passed, your name will be praised. 

What is your legacy, and how do you want to be remembered? Be you, and I be me.

"Legacy" 2 April 2014

You are your own best friend. Take time to have a conversation with yourself about your life, and the situations and moments that occupy it. Open up your heart and tap into that world that you dare not visit. 

Filter and delete unwanted archives in your heart and brain, by so doing you are creating space and enabling yourself to reach and see deep within you. And guess what? The clearer your world becomes the easier it is to converse with yourself. Establish that organic chemistry between your mind and your soul. By the time you allow others to come into your world, you won't have to worry about any bugs or virus crashing your system. 

Remember, only you can safeguard your world. Every morning and night, talk with yourself and be thankful for all the blessings that have come before. Be you, and I be me.

"Your Own Best Friend" 9 April 2014

Surround yourself with eagles because they fly so high up in the sky. From their altitude, they get a better view of the landscape and their prey. Befriend ducks, they float in the water and make paddling look easy. The cheetahs will teach you how to run fast, you will always be the first to catch the fat worm. In all, surround yourself with friends that bring balance to your life and support you. Be you, and I be me.

"Talk to the Animals" 7 May 2014

The good person that you are will always shine through, regardless of the dark  labels other people drape around. The image that you project should display a peaceful, kind, strong, giving, understanding and willing individual. If you take time to make a collage of all the good things you do in life, you will be surprised with finish the product. 

Make a masterpiece that will speak volumes about you. Again, take what you are given and use it to enhance the qualities that you possess, because you are special and a one of a kind. Never doubt yourself, never give up and don't ever lose hope. Keep your light shining, and once you have found your path through the darkness, help others to find their way. Be you, and I be me.
