Week 1
“What trigger pattern did you notice about yourself this week?” Last night, something happened, and I didn’t take a beat at all, if I’m being completely honest. The moment caught me off guard, and I just allowed myself to express how I felt.. I was frustrated . In that moment, I noticed two patterns, one was healthy, and the other one… not so much. The unhealthy pattern was that I went to sleep feeling heavy and woke up with it still on my mind, so I suppressed it. But the good pattern I’ve adopted is that I didn’t hold it in, I sought guidance and prayed about it. Now, even though what happened was hurtful, I have a peace I can’t explain. I know it’s going to sound crazy, but it almost feels unfair, lol, because I had every right to feel what I felt..yet I feel nothing but peace, so I’m grateful for that.

🔥 Don’t Take the Bait Challenge
I recently had the opportunity to talk about my book Don’t Take the Bait™ on NBC. The concept is simple but powerful: Every day, life throws us bait — situations, comments, frustrations, and triggers that invite us to react emotionally. The question is… 🎣 Did you take the bait today? Maybe it was:• A frustrating email• Someone’s tone• Traffic• A comment that rubbed you the wrong way The moment between the trigger and the reaction is where your power lives. Your challenge today: 👉 Think about one moment recently where you almost reacted emotionally. Ask yourself: 1. What was the bait? 2. What emotion did it trigger? 3. What would a renewed mind response look like? Drop your answer in the comments 👇Let’s grow together by becoming more aware of the bait around us. https://www.nbcdfw.com/video/texas-today/a-look-inside-dont-take-the-bait/3992844/ Remember:Awareness is the first step to rewiring your response. — Amanda

This is so good. 1.The opportunity that presented itself wasn’t bad at all. It turns out the emotion (trigger) I attached to the opportunity was the real bait. 2.The bait was a fear of success. When I was younger, my mom would sometimes voice her concern on how far I would go in life as a successful African American woman, and my older cousin would call me lazy and spoiled. Till this day, people naturally give me things, and I’ve never felt entitled to any of it, I’ve never asked for much… but I’m actually extremely grateful. And somehow, it still came across as laziness or being spoiled. 3.A renewed mind wouldn’t shut down or feel intimidated when getting things done or accomplishing something on its own especially things others once doubted were possible. It wouldn’t shrink back from God’s blessings out of feeling undeserving. A renewed mind knows who it is and who it’s not, understands what it carries, and continues to trust God regardless of what was spoken over it.
