C.R.E.A.M - Cash Rules Everything Around Me !!

          All started with me and my mother having a conversation about money, now my mom is very into her bible like most people of her generation, church is a way of life. Here's how the conversation went:

 Me : I have this book that will teach you how to make money, you know be more conscious of how you spend it.

 Mom : You know money is the root to all evil ?

 Me : Well, yes but I believe the love of money is though

 Mom : *Thinks* well yes the love of money, well how to explain Jesus actions when he saw people making money and he destroyed the shop.

 Me: He did that because they was selling those things in the Holy Temple.

 Mom : *Thinks* Slightly Agrees

                What my mom failed to understand is that we "Human Beings' control money so what money does is a reflection of oursleves. No one makes clothes anymore so we need money for that, no one rides horses anymore, we need taxi money,a car or a bike so we need money for that, and need i mention school ? Though education is free in my country; books,uniforms,graduations,stationary and transportation isn't inclusive so we need money for that.

           To zero in, western society has made it very difficult to survive without money so it's impeccable to our survival that we learn how to spend it and make it. I know what our culture has us believing ,however, God don't want you to starve. Don't become consume in materialism and bad spending habits; in all things, think about the advancement of others and helping others. Before you buy a MK watch think about the child who lives across from your home whose going to bed hungry tonight because his parents ain't making enough; I think that's evil when you are conscious of this and choose to spend selfishly regardless.

        And I'm out,have a bless day people, much love.


 Be Bless!!!

Let It Flow Chale.....

Both of my mentors has been grilling me for my attitude lately and yes I am confessing that I was trying to force a lot of things to happen. I got worried, I allowed the fear of the future to get me completely out of my grove. I remember I would wake up hungry, ready to take on the challenges of the day and lately I've had mornings, where I didn't want to even face the reality of what my life was. Yes, somewhere I allowed society to contaminate my mind with thoughts of being an iconic success story one day. I wanted it all and I wanted it now and this is what was making my mentors uncomfortable about me. I lost the appreciation of the little things while focusing on the big picture and I cried when I realize how far I feel off from the person I was when I first started this journey. I am back into my "FLOW" mood, just allowing things to happen and what doesn't happen wasn't meant to be. I look back at last year around this time and the odds I was up agains...

Why am I still in my box?

A year ago my mentor sent me an email about me being inside of box- not showing the world who I am, what my talents are and the gift that God has given me. Eventually I learned how to come out of my box while living in the UK and I was able to impact a few lives while doing so.  Living inside the box was safe, no one knew me, no one expected anything of me, I could be free well at least that was the illusion I was selling to myself. In contrast, living outside of the box created a passion, it made me feel valuable, it showed me my purpose in this world and that was real freedom - knowing everyday that I can impact the world just by being who I was meant to be, created a feeling of "flying" in my soul. I actually love being outside of the box although I am more vulnerable there but I think venerability is the one thing that allows people to connect with you. It's the one thing that allows people to feel comfortable around you(i.e. like a form of humility) so don't ...

Making Progress On New Year's Resolution

How do I make progress this year ? 1. Tackling the biggest misconception about new year's resolutions(NYR) - It does not have to start at the beginning of the year. Most people begin the year believing that change must be made instantly. It does not work like that. Change just like anything in the world that is worth having, takes time. Change is like a seed, you plant it, water it and make sure it is getting exposure to sunlight. By doing those things, you have made an effort and the rest is up to the universe to decide whether you are ready for a new plant(change) in your life. The universe gives us what we are ready for and it always comes at the right time.  2. What if my NYR is finding Love ? - The seed you plant for love is a seed you plant inside of yourself. A seed of personal growth; you must become the person you want to fall in love with and that takes time. We hold on to our beliefs on how life should turn out and honestly life should not be shaped by such expec...
