This is a very traumatic world we live in. On all fronts. It's very discouraging especially if you have goals you're striving for. Nevertheless, as long as we have air in our lungs we have the power to write our own scripts and give ourselves, and others, the happy ending we deserve.

"Denied" "Declined" Seeing those words suck and can be extremely frustrating. It's better to see "Approved" or "Accepted" Maybe though, just maybe, we get denied and declined, so we can never forget the blessings that brought us to this point in the first place.

You work so hard to build something then it comes tumbling down. Because of inconsistency, because of people telling you "No", because of many hurdles. That can be very frustrating and disheartening. The only thing we can do in these situations however is to keep the pace and place our trust in something greater!

It's easy to remind yourself of the bad things, but it's hard to tell yourself the great things. Change the conversations you have with yourself and watch your behavior shift.

Peace supersedes Paychecks. Regardless of how big that paycheck is. We work jobs we don't care for simply because we need the money. We set aside stress, depression, and health for money. These jobs are a huge distraction and preventing us from pursuing our passions. Whether that is your dream career or your business there will come a time where you must shift your faith from money to God and just say "F^ck that Job"

Storms rage at ocean level. Waves rise 40feet high, winds blow 100mph, rain, thunder, lightning are in an abundance. But if you go 100 feet below the surface there are no signs of a storm. It's just peace and calm. That contrast applies to entrepreneurs and Dream chasers alike.

You lack confidence in what you're doing because you don't know WHY you're doing it. It's like you're driving on a road trip with no purpose. Passion with no purpose is pointless, but REAL passion always has a purpose. This week you have to ask yourself WHY am I doing this and that will reveal your mission. Then you will have all the confidence you need to go forward.

Dr. Mysti Harrison didn't have any immediate examples of being a doctor in her life early on, but she KNEW becoming a doctor was an option, failure was not.

Entrepreneurs and Dream chasers feel the need that they must always be busy or productive to a degree when sometimes, many times, it's best to slow down and focus on the small things. That's what really will get you to the top.

Freshman year at Western Illinois University there were only 2 Black boys on my floor; myself, and Hamm Bishop.

Visions and ideas that remain on your mind for years are not random thoughts they are there for a reason. They are waiting for you to put them into action and execute so all of the events in your life, good and bad, can make sense.

She didn't choose medicine, medicine chose her. Dr. Allen has overcome nearly every single hurdle thrown at her to achieve her goals of becoming a doctor, but her trajectory doesn't end there. She wants more; more Black doctors, nurses, and administrators. Not only that, but she wants to lead by example, where it all started...

Doesn't matter how hard you work. If it is not meant for you to walk through certain doors then they will not open. Your faith will forge the keys for the doors you are destined to enter throughout your journey to success.

Ron Lofton made a lot of money in Corporate America and a vast majority of that money didn't go into his pockets. He wanted ownership, but he also wanted to serve. Those desires thrust him into the world of entrepreneurship and he eventually owned numerous McDonald's franchises on the West Side of Chicago where he became a leader in his community and within the McDonald's organization. Not bad for a man whose life began on a humble Mississippi farm.

Your goals may seem unbelievable to many. Don't take it personal that's just how they have been conditioned to think. Which makes it even more important that you must succeed. So they can become believers.

You ever have a bad day. Like a TERRIBLE ass day where you just wanted to say fuck it all? That was me yesterday. It was a very VERY bad day. Then I realized something...my success was still unbothered.
