One of those Weeks

You ever just have one of those weeks?

*sigh*

I’d crawl under the covers if I could…but I have work to do. I dont have a choice right now.

There’s so much to do this weekend.

And I STILL haven’t gotten my manicure…guess that’s not happening.

*humming* Workin Workin Workin, Day and Night!

Driven and Relentless

Have you ever set a goal so high, you never know if you’ll actually reach it?

A goal so high, that even when you talk about people think that you’re trippin’ or maybe even…as high as that goal?

I remember when I was little…I used to ask my mother a question about 50-11 times until she gave me my desired result, or until I had figured out an alternative that was equally pleasing. If asking face to face didnt work, I was resigned to sliding notes casually under the bathroom door, leaving notes in her purse…under her pillow…on her bedroom door…

I was relentless.

I hope that I can continue to be that way in business…and in life in general…

Kierra “Kiki” Sheard

I know I’ve said to you over and over
I’m going to get it together sooner or later.
You told me I had to do something so when I said I’ll do better. (oo yeah)
And you even said if you do this I’ll do that.
And I told you I was moving on and I was right back in my situation which led me to complications.

Oooh I know, I know.

Chorus:
I know. I know. I made a promise. It may have seemed like jiberish. Please hear this. Lord, I’m relentless.

(O Lord Please.)
Hear this. (Please)
Hear this. (Please)
Hear this. (oh Please)
Oh Hear this.
Hear this. (Yeah)
Lord, I’m relentless.

I’ve even said, “Please, never leave me!”
And I meant that seriously, Lord, accept my plea. (Yeah)
Lord, I’m crying out to you. (oooh)
Because without you I dont know what I would doooo.
And I know.

Chorus

Lord I’m sorry for
For the things that I’ve done
For the disappointments
And for my disobedience
Ooh I’m sorry Lord.
Oh Lord
Please forgive me
Never leave me
Cause I made mistakes and I know that you’re the only way.

And I know.

Chorus.

Your Own Destiny

If you could take charge of your life and manifest your destiny… what would you do? Where would you go?

It is so easy to sit back and say “If this or that hadn’t happened, I would be doing this”…

Why not just…do it?

It may sound crazy, but sometimes failure IS an option. I mean, sometimes failing at one thing…opens the door to something new and better. Maybe we should be looking at failure as a stepping stone up, rather than a kick to the side.

I dunno…just my random two cents.

Beyond Booked Solid

I was doing some perusing the other day and ran across this book.

Beyond Booked Solid: Your Business, Your Life, Your Way— It’s All Inside (Michael Port)

Michael Port is someone who encourages thinking big. I like him already.

So this will be my required reading once I have a chance to sit down … when I get to the place I’m supposed to be *long story, few know - lemme alone*.

The best thing I’ve read all week was by Rich Sloan of StartUpNation -

Life Planning is a crucial activity in order to truly create a dream business

Hmmm. Kinda makes ya think. If only just a little.

I’m Buying a Huffy

I promise I am… only it will be pink.

On the way into the office this morning, I spent $65.00 on gas.

Come on Bush…damn. Can it get any worse?

Wait…

Don’t answer that…
