Break-Out (Take the Limits Off!)

IT'S TIME TO BREAKOUT!
I stayed too long in that place that I succumbed to paralysis and my own fears
I became so caught up in the mundane of being good at that one thing and doing the same thing
that was easy for me. However, that one thing is the very thing that is killing me softly.
You heard the saying, "Your gifts should make room for you," they do, but only if they are not hindered by barriers and the proverbial box that keeps your ideas, dreams and hopes trapped.

I have been in a place in my life, professional and otherwise where I felt trapped.
Actually, for sometime now, I feel like I am just going through the motion but not making any meaningful progress. I want to see growth, because growth is a part of life
I want to spread my wings and fly and be more creative
I want to jump out of the box, break through the barriers that I have set and away from what I have allowed others to hold me as a prisoner.

I have read many stories and testimonies where people moved out by faith.
I feel as my faith is challenging me to go higher and go deeper.
I don't know which path I would take but my spirit is calling me to move...
I titled this entry as Break-Out!

Someone needs to know that you have been held as a prisoner long enough.
You have dreams
You have talents and abilities
You are gifted as many others
All you need is to jumpstart your faith.

Don't let the world hold you back
Don't let a sure job or a salary, keep you from dreaming
Don't let the barriers, keep you unlocked from your world
Break Out from those limits!

Break-Out from all those things we tell ourselves that we cannot do and cannot accomplish
Break-Out from those time restrictions in which we have imposed, such as by this date, I should be married and if not then life is over as we know it.
Break-Out from rejection, despite not being chosen for the promotion or career choice,
or not being the one that oversees and leads the project.

Sometimes, we have to realize that maybe we don't fit in at that place and that our rejection by others would ultimately catapult us right into the place we need to be...the place God has destined for us.

Sometimes we often forget that we DECIDE where we want to be, but on the road that was filled with twists and turns and disappointments, we lost our momentum or like Austin Powers, would say our "MOJO!"

Friends, Break-Out from your PARALYSIS!
You need to move, you need to grow and expand your limits.

John Powell wrote,  "A person can grow only as much as his horizons allows"

We have power over our lives. We sometimes place limits on ourselves by what we can or cannot do.
We ultimately have that power within us to make us. God has given us all that we need for our lives and to live out our purpose. We simply need to remember that our faith in God is a must and that everything that we need, we are equipped with the necessary tools and ingredients. It only takes us to believe in ourselves. Who God calls, he equips, whom he equips, he qualifies.
My friends believe that you are everything you say you are but then I need you to truly believe that you are everything God says you are and more!

Many of us have a hard time believing this, but I am telling you, that you don't belong apart of the status quo. You don't belong being held down on your job by those that don't value and appreciate you.
I love this particular quote, I don't know who is the author but it simply says, "Go where you are appreciated not tolerated!"

Some of us are stuck and need to hear these words.
This is your clarion call to motivate you to move forward, to go higher or dig deeper...

It's time to Break-Out!

Break-Out of complacency
Break-Out of your shame
Break-Out from your defeat
Break-Out from your words of doubt
Break-Out from those limits that held you back for so long

No more excuses, no more self-imposed restrictions.
Therefore, take ownership of your life and break that glass ceiling, kick down those doors and jump out of the box...It's Time!

It's Your Time to Break-Out!

Mean It!

  Hello, is this thing on?🎤 Well, it has been a while since I have released a blog post. The reason is that I have not been inspired to write much of anything lately. When I tell you the season I was in, from a personal perspective was a dry season. it was a period of being off the grid and staying in the shadows. It was the season of my detox. It required me to be poured into rather than pouring out myself.  Lately, I found myself searching and in desperate need of something different. I needed more!   Now, I want to qualify my statement, by simply stating that I needed more than the norm. More for my life! My professional life, my spiritual life, and my personal life required me to seek beyond my normal. I was... no I am intentional about my next season being way different than before. I cannot get away with a mediocre outlook on life because I want more of what life has to offer.  I want to be more. I want to experience more. I am not speaking from the mater...

Unspoken Words...I Broke Down Today!!!

So how's this for a reel...real talk, real truth and real emotions... I Broke Down Today!!! Some would say, I had a meltdown while others would say I lost total control of my emotions. I would have been deemed emotional and yet I was unashamed... I baled, I balled, I cried out in desperation because of hurt, pain, mishandling and misinformation. You see days before I was walking tall, proud that I was keeping it all together. For what though, for a world that is growing colder and callous every day. Now has me wondering, do people truly care about people. The world today is not the world that I dreamt about...a world of peace, love, unity, equality, equity and family togetherness...just the sound of it seems farfetched now. But yet I still have a dream... that one day tings gonna get better...like the good Bishop says. I broke down today because family is not the same anymore, so much  division, so much strife, no unity and I am asking where is the love that once was had. I broke d...

Taking Flight

Latest Release Broken Wings: From Hurt to Hope It' s already December 2016 and I made it to the last month of the year and it feels darn good!  Upon being grateful that I made it to this point in the year, I also have some wonderful news to share with you. I recently published my first book which so happens to be connected to my blog. You see, I started writing during a period of my life, where I was overcome with darkness, as I was going through a period of heartbreak and depression. This blog was therapeutic for me, it helped me write through my pain and thus one day, I sat still long enough to pen words that eventually became my first book, "Broken Wings: From Hurt to Hope.  My book chronicles my experience where I battled depression and tells my very own personal story of how I navigated through one of the most painful times in my life. It is as about as real as you can get. I hope that my book, just as I hope my blog is an encouragement to someone that needs to ...
