As a writer with a marketing background, words are the foundation of my toolkit. I love words. I’ve studied their impact on messaging and their ability to affect people and evoke action or reaction.
This video was initially used by an ad agency to remind potential clients that messaging is critical to increasing sales. As the video went viral, its impact on humanity surfaced.
NOTE: Our words last beyond their intrinsic meanings. Choose them wisely.
Definitely worth reposting…
I had to tell you off
To be free
I had to tell you off
To really find me
I had to tell you off
In your own place
I had to tell you off
To get you out of my space
I had to tell you off
To understand
That God is sufficient
over any man
I had to tell you off
To love you more
I had to tell you off
And continue to explore
My life that is sufficient
Over any man
I had to tell you off
To turn me on
to the truth and see my rites
I had to tell you off to take flight

PSALM 1:1-3
1 Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers. 2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night. 3 He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.
It’s here! It’s here! All the best to you and yours.
Philippians 4:11-12
11 I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. 12 I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.
I am so very excited about the holidays this year. What am I saying, I have been excited about Christmas all my life. As the youngest in my family, I believe that it is my birthright. Never lose your childish enthusiasm!
Do something to help someone today whether they are aware of it or not.
Believe me, YOU will feel amazing! ELEVATE!!
Happy Thursday!! Who else is feeling free like me?
Love is alright with me today, but I am going to let Ms. Patti tell you guys…
PROVERBS 16:7
7 When a person’s ways please the Lord, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.
Although it changes along with my experiences, this scripture has been my favorite for a couple of years now. Suffice it to say that leadership comes at a price. Sometimes we choose it willingly and sometimes it is thrust upon us whether we want it or not. Following my own path is not so difficult, however, creating a path for others to follow and adopt… #painful! Even if those you lead actually believe in your ability to do so, inevitably there will be folks among them who question your ability or resent it. My prayer is to accept leadership with grace and humility at all times whether at home or at work.
