Everyone starts at the bottom ‘til they make their mark and get past middle ground. I’ve always gotten to the middle, but I never made it to the top. I usually get sidetracked or disinterested in the struggle because lets face it, you have to crawl before you walk and I’m tired of brushing off my knees. LOL. I realize at 28, that everything I want in life is only “thoughts” away. My mind is what stops me and is the only thing that halts my ventures. It’s time to retrain my thinking and make my mind work for me. Success is different to each individual and it comes at different levels of your life. I find when I don’t attempt to master each step in the proper order, when I get to where I believe I want to be, those unresolved issues from the past make their presence a factor in my imperfect world.
My first order of business is to be successful at being me. Does that make sense?
How many of us look at what another individual has and wishes or envies their attributes upon ourselves. Who even knows the road they took or the sacrifices they made to attain their “successes”. You should never look at what others have or who others are, and want to fill their shoes. If anything let it inspire you to change. I intend to be complete in my size 12’s. It’s time to work on being happy with my imperfections and resolved in the things of my past that restructured the road to my future.
So today I state, “No more compromises.” To complete my first mission, I must complete me. There’s only one road to take and it has no off ramps. I’ll see you on the other side.

Deepak Chopra told me subconciously that I would start to see an immense number of coincedences if I trodded a path to greatness. And ever since I have started to really believe that, there have been more and more incidences of people, ideals, hidden messages etc. that have been placed on my path. Once again, reading your blog has become like #509...I say all of that to say keep on the path that you are trodding because in the end, the universe will let you know if you are walking in the right direction. The fact that you and I are on the same mission is a sign that our compasses point to the destination that we long for. I am willing to be that ear of hope and faith when you feel like your momentum is fading cause I understand. DO IT GIRL!!! Cause you got the glow! And like Roy Ayers said, keep searching for completion...it is a wonderous place!!
