Before we head into the weekend, I just want to check on everybody. How are you REALLY doing? Not what you accomplished this week. Not what you need to work on. Not what your goals are. How are YOU doing? Mentally. Emotionally. Physically. Spiritually. 👇🏾 Drop a number from 1 to 10 for how you are feeling today. If you feel comfortable, tell us what is behind that number. And if everything is going great, we want to hear that too. ❤️ Sometimes we spend so much time trying to become better that we forget to simply check on each other. Hope everyone is doing well. And if you are not, you do not have to pretend in here. We Rise Together.

Have you ever confused being NEEDED with being VALUED? Sometimes people need what you provide. Your help. Your advice. Your money. Your connections. Your strength. Your ability to fix things. But here is the real question: If you stopped doing everything you do for people, would you still feel just as valuable to them? 👇🏾 How do you know when someone truly values you, and not just what you bring to their life? 🔥 Being useful to someone and being valuable to someone are not always the same thing. Know the difference. We Rise Together.

Today ask yourself: What do you finally realize YOU are doing that is keeping you from living the life you want? And now that you see it: What are you going to do differently? 👇🏾 Drop your answer below. It could be something you need to start, stop, change, or finally take a chance on. 🔥 Sometimes the biggest shift happens when we stop waiting for life to change and recognize where we have the power to change it. We Rise Together.

I don’t know why and who this is for but I just want to come on here and say this………… Watch. Understand what’s happening. Don’t show everything. Handle what needs handling. Protect who and what you can. Keep moving until you can change your circumstances.

You may be going through something that looks just like what someone else is facing, but their test is still different from yours. So stop looking at their paper for your answer. What worked for them may not be what works for you. Your timing may be different. Your lesson may be different. Your answer may be different. Focus on the test in front of you. You were never meant to pass life by copying someone else. Same lesson plan. Different test. Pass your test that was given to you….
