This is your opportunity to ask me anything that currently a challenge or an obstacle for you. What are you dealing with? Is money concerns bothering you? Are you overwhelmed because you feel that you don't have enough time to get everything done? Do you feel that you need change but don't know how to get started or which direction to go in? Or are your questions more related to life in general? Anything and everything is open to inquiry. I'll record a video to answer your question and post it here.

If you're going through a life transition, facing challenges, or in the midst of a a pivot/ reinvention, I am here to help. This is the reason I started this community so you can be yourself and prosper at the same time. (This is a chapter from my book, Life: It's a Trip. Available on Amazon) I worked in restaurants for many, many years, and my favorite part was being a waiter. Being a waiter allowed me the flexibility of scheduling that I didn’t have when I worked as a manager. And I enjoyed the fact that for the most part, I controlled my income by taking care of my customers. Let me share two stories from when I worked at Steak and Ale to illustrate my point. One night, as I was going about my shift taking care of my customers, one customer surprised me with the question, “Did you use to work at Atchafalaya’s?” “Yes”, I said. “That was three years ago.” “That’s right”, he said. “And you waited on us one time. That was the best service I had ever received. From now on, I am going to ask for you every time I come here.” I thanked him for the compliment and for remembering me. He took care of me very well that day. About a week later, I got a phone call at home from the restaurant manager. He told me that some guy called and said he was bringing in some business clients the next day and wanted me to wait on them. The manager told him that it was my day off and I wouldn’t be in, but he will have the best waiter take care of him. The man said, “No. Will you please call Rasheed and see if he can come in to wait on me, and call me back?” I knew who it was. I went in, worked for an hour off the clock to take care of my customer and made $50.00. That was in 1996. When I said I controlled my income, for the most part, incidents like this were a part of it. The other part is the fact that when your customers are asking for you, the management tends to give you the best stations to work and make sure that you are making enough money to stick around.

A few weeks back I had the honor of walking my youngest daughter down the aisle and I find myself creating a new normal...for the routine of life. That got me to thinking about how sometimes we feel stuck in a rut...and when that happens I would encourage each of us to ask ourselves this question: What would it look like to get out of this rut? Then map a plan to get from where you are to where you want to be. Because the definition of insanity is continuing to do what we have always done and expecting different results. If your making a change and want to talk about it, or want help thinking it through feel free to comment below.

I created this image for @Rasheed Hooda as he is a member in my community as well… today I put some motion to it and created a GIF! There is a POWER that lies beneath this beautiful human, who truly understands how to create something out of nothing and live a MAGICAL life!!! Let’s all take a moment to honor this weirdo and all of his wisdom that comes from his uniqueness! 🤍

I want to answer your questions to help you live life on your terms. I can do live Q&A for an hour or I can set aside a day when you can post questions in the community and I answer them in a video for you to watch.
