I Decided to Take a Chance on Me

April 4, 2017 · In: Motherhood

Recently I decided to finally take a chance on me. We often talk about one day. One day I will do this or one day I will do that, not knowing if that one day will ever come.

We fantasize about our dream job, and dream home and even the type of life we see ourselves living. But what if, just what if God gave you the opportunity to make those dreams a reality? Would you go with the safe option, or would you take a chance on you?

Recently I was faced with this decision. While my “opportunity” did not come the way I imagined it would, nonetheless it presented itself. My job “security” became threatened and I have made a decision to do something many would call strange and unwise.

But I can only believe this was meant to occur. See I believe that opportunities for us to take a chance and exercise our faith often come, but we do not recognize them because they don’t come packaged like we expect.

[Tweet “Don’t be the foolish woman, left waiting for an opportunity that has already come and gone.”]

But as a woman of faith I understand, THAT perception is the direct opposite of the word. Faith is trusting in something you cannot see or in all logic seems impossible.

I believe, at some point, we all have to exercise our faith and take a chance on ourselves. Believing that we have everything we need to experience happiness on a daily basis, obtain our greatest success and live a life we truly love.

Because the outcome of our lives is ultimately up to us. We can sit around complaining and get comfortable in our mediocrity or we can seize every opportunity to be great and live a life of purpose.

As for me, I choose the ladder. So here’s to believing in myself, trusting God’s plan for me, and living a life of purpose.

I quit social media….

I needed to focus on me…and what a time it’s been! Life is good, the babies are thriving and I’m more renewed than ever. 

No long speech just…

How y’all been? Ya girl is back.
First off, forget them people! Respectfully… Bu First off, forget them people! Respectfully…

But, I get it!  Most times we lack confidence worrying about other people’s opinion on this or that, but… 

- Stop trying to prove people wrong and prove yourself right! This is about you. You overcoming your fears. You finding the audacity to be great. You pursuing YOUR best life.

- Surround yourself with people that pour into you. Having the right support system is essential. It helps you ignore the noise around you. Join an online group, meetup with positive people local to you.

- Figure out the area you lack confidence in and build yourself up in that area.

- Feel the fear and do it anyway! You gotta just push through. Keep working. Keep showing up. Keep building.

Save this post and reference it when you feel self doubt creeping in.

It’s Monday and I’m prepared to have a product It’s Monday and I’m prepared to have a productive week! 

Here are a few things I do to make sure the business and the babies are setup for success:

- Write down everything I need to get done this week on Sunday. I literally do a brain dump of all the things.

- Then I prioritize these things from most important to least! …because let’s be real I wanna do everything but there’s only so much time in the day 😂 

- Then I schedule the first 3 things in my planner for Monday. I like to see it here and put in Google calendar.

- I plan, shop, and prep all my meals for the week on Sunday too. Because who got time for “What y’all wanna eat?” everyday lol 

- Lastly I’m trying to make room for IG this week because that hasn’t been a priority. But @planoly is coming in clutch for me.

So I’m implementing the strategy: if you fail to plan, you plan to fail! And I’m planning to get it done this week!!!

Share this with an entrepreneur that could use it!

When I left corporate, it was for my kids! I was When I left corporate, it was for my kids!

I was tired of paying 2 mortgages in daycare cost, working all day and only seeing them for a few hours in the evening. Then, the hassle I’d get when I needed to take off for them!

#Workingmoms don’t get enough credit!!!! It’s a JOB in itself juggling it all…..let’s not get into the last 2 years. 🙄

My plan was to make it through their daycare days, but I done got out here an built an empire!

Don’t tell me God ain’t good!!

So, yeah. I’m gonna be right here, taking care of my babies.

Working moms, stay at home moms, work at home moms, bonus moms, expectant moms…….all y’all, I see you!
