Slight Delay

Good Morning Readers!

I apologize for not posting in the past couple of days. Yesterday was my birthday and I was barely inside. I thank God for seeing me to my 21st! Nonetheless, I should be releasing my piece before week's end.

Thanks for your patience

Post on the Horizon: Leadership is More Than Just a Vision

My next release will discuss what it means to be a leader and both the spoken and unspoken responsibilities that come with it. This is a topic that I don't think can be explained in just one post. So this may just be the first part or half of the larger piece. Leadership is a role that many people underestimate and/or do not fully grasp. In today's society, we find it so easy to criticize our different leaders but do we really fully understand what it takes to be in their shoes?

My goal is to release the piece sometime this week or early next week, so stay tuned.

Verse of the Week

"Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up."
- Galatians 6:9

Return from Spring Break

     You know, one topic that seems to come up a lot is how we all become who we are because of the environment we were raised in. Depending on your living situation or how you were brought up, you would act a certain way in response to different stimulants. What do you think? Do you think that we are all products of our environment? Do you think our lives were set up for us already? Are we only then limited by what we are exposed to? If people are born in better situations, does that mean that they are better than us? These are the kinds of questions that come to me as I think of the idea that I am a "product of my environment" and to be honest, I find it to be for the most part true. However, I see it in a different perspective than what people expect.

Return from Spring Break

Hey everyone. I am just returning from my trip to Miami for Spring Break so I will soon post up the topic for my new post as well as post itself!

Verse of the Week

"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."
- Romans 8:28

Advice of the Day

Never forget you didn't get where you are on your own. Remember that the next time you have the opportunity to give back or help someone in need.

Updates and Checking In

Hey readers! I hope everyone is enjoying their day, and for those on the East Coast, are enjoying the nice change in weather.

To my college students, I hope you all are pushing through those last exams and projects due before Spring Break! For those who are on break already, I hope you are enjoying it as I'm sure it's well deserved.

I will look to release my new piece towards the end of the month once I have a better sense of what topic I want to focus on, and once I get more input from the readers.

Otherwise, enjoy the day and talk to you soon.

Verse of the Week

"Jesus looked at them and said, 'With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.'"
-  Matthew 19:26

Advice of the Day

If what you're doing isn't something you're passionate about, or isn't challenging you, then you need to make a change.

Advice of the Day

There's nothing wrong with being different. Psychologically, we tend to conform to those around us in an attempt to fit in and not stand out. But as we try to conform to those around us, we compromise who we are as individuals. So my advice to you is to maintain your individuality, and to not let others around you change who you are as a person. If you be yourself and others can't respect that, at least you still have respect for yourself, and knowledge that your values, or character, could not be changed.
