*Mind over Matter*

I'm having one of those days where I have to be mentally tuff. I keep reminding myself that it's all mind over matter. I just don't have the patience anymore it feels like with this J-O-B. There are days like today that I just want to walk out and be free like a bird. 

And like I mentioned in a previous post, I always come to work and say "this is only temporary." That little phrase keeps me going through out the day. It keeps me mentally tuff. And I know for sure one day I will be living my dreams. Sometimes the things that we don't want to do teaches us to keep going. It becomes our motivation to "get out and live our dreams." It helps us to stop, breathe, and reset our goals and attention. 

Keep going and keep growing my Sweet Candy canes 🍬😊

*Inspired by MLK Speaker*

At work yesterday we had a speaker Dr Chenelle, for MLK day. It was absolutety phenomenal hearing her story and taking key gems in her speech. She really inspired me to want to do more. As a Black woman seeing other go-getters like her just makes me want to challenge myself. 

Some key points I took from her speech:

-Most people don't fail due to fear. Most people fail due to lack of commitment.

-55.3 million dreams die every year. People are dying with dreams unfulfilled.

-Check your circle, if you're the smartest one in your circle create a new one.

-Have the courage to make your dreams a reality.

-Tell me what I can't do, and I will prove to you that I can!

-When you think big, you dreams big, your results will be big. 

-Do it with a Martin mindset.
