JUST DO IT

Fitting title, huh? I know. I am obsessed with Nike. Anyways, this isn't a blog to tell you how much time I spend looking at Nike shoes and clothes this week; it was a lot and it's only Tuesday. It's to tell you that some of the best advice I have been given recently, a good ten times before listening, is just do it. I have hesitated creating this blog because I was worried no one would read it. I was worried no one would be interested in what I have to say. I was worried people would think this is stupid. The crazy thing is, I am right. There will be some who won't read it, others who aren't interested, and those who believe this is just plain stupid. However, it doesn't diminish my work or the significance that this blog could potentially have. 

What I am saying is JUST DO IT in spite of those truths. Don't be like me and procrastinate for years. What are you truly scared of and why? It's important you get down to the root of why. Once, the why is known then you can begin to build, grow and overcome the fear. In the midst of finding it out begin with small actions to head towards the goal. That's what I am doing right now. I am overcoming my fear and starting a blog. 

What's my why? What's my purpose with this blog? Well, hopefully to deter me from shopping on Nike online. No, but seriously, I hope to inspire and show other young women that it's fine to not have everything together or be married and 3 children by 25! My purpose is to show the not-so-easy parts of life but to also show there is always a chance to grow and learn. Instead of asking myself what I want to be in my career my question has switched to how do I want to live. Instead of asking myself why do these thing happen to me my question has changed to who do I want to become through the hardships. This weekend I heard a saying "success is being able to get the mountain top yourself, significance is bringing others with you." Ugh, that's what I want; I want significance. 

At the end of every journal I write wish me love so...

Wish me love 💓

    I’ve been there. Growing up in all the old Jane Austen movies, I literally thought that’s how loved worked. New flash, it doesn’t. Thank you for your transparency. ❤️

WORTH

     This is one of those topics that is so deep and involved that I have been hesitant to even approach it. Just know from jump, this won't be the only blog addressing this. It is always a timely topic because it is a daily struggle for many. What I have realized, for me and many others, is we limit our own worth with our toxic thinking. This can be seen as we compare ourselves to every thing and every one. Worth is a measure of value based on the gravity of a sacrifice.  We will talk more about the ultimate sacrifice committed just for you in a later blog.  Early last year I got tired of feeling worthless. I was allowing the happenings of life to define my worth. I want to let you in on a secret - life will always devalue you when you give it power . For example, in your job you are replaceable; let that sink in. Is that not a light jab to the heart? I mean the first time I heard that I was taken back, succumbed to the fact and placed value in it. I know you're like - uhhh Va

THROUGH THE FIRE

Hey Ya'll! I know it's been a while but I've been going through and I know you have too. Honestly, when I'm going through I always stop doing what helps me. Do you do that? It makes no sense. Anyways, this topic has been on my heart and it was confirmed today that I need to stop procrastinating and just get it written.  Fire. When you think of fire you subconsciously think about the dangerous characteristics. Its hot...like real hot and can be uncontrollable in some situations. We don't like it because we can't control it and that's what I think is the worst characteristic. Now, I'm sure you know where I am going with this but just keep reading.  Have ya'll been going through the fire? What does the fire look like for you? Is it hot, constantly changing, an uncontrollable situation? There's a story in the Bible about 3 men who are thrown into a fire because of their refusal to bow to the king. So the consequence was fire. They had to enter the fi
