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 against and I was like wow, I actually overcame everything I was afraid of last year. WHAT A GREAT YEAR, I GOT THROUGH! GLORY TO GOD!!!...

Without family and friends, I don't think I would have made it this far, wow I have some great people in my life and I always remind them of that. I always tell people how I feel about them which is not a "guy thing", whatever, I don't care. If you a real friend, I will let you know. Even for the people who passed through my life, I always treated them the right way, I don't know, I blame my grandmother and mother for loving me so hard, it created this warm-hearted person who wants to see people around me living great and happy lives.

Lately, I have been second guessing having a family and just devoting the rest of my life to philanthropy work. I want to make a difference the best way I can. I don't care about society and what it refers to as the ideal modern day life, that equation has failed us because most modern day life people are miserable. We've complicated life when life was already a complicated situation, we set all these goals, measurements and achievements for ourselves and in the end are left physically drained and miserable; what a life!. 

My Advice: SIMPLICITY!!!...Listen more than you speak, give yourself quiet time and have a few drinks now and again(preferably wine ;-) to loosen up and be expressive to the people who mean you well!, those are usually the best times, lol.....

TTYL,
Chale X

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

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
