864 STRONG – You Matter! The people around you today matter.

We know what real love is because Jesus gave up his life for us. So we also ought to give up our lives for our brothers and sisters.
-1 John 3:16

“A man can fail many times, but he isn’t a failure until he begins to blame somebody else.”
-John Burroughs

A genuine smile is one of the world’s rarest treasures. Smile! You never know who needs to see it.
-Just Smile

The happiest people don’t have the best of everything, they just make the best of everything. Thankful. Grateful. Blessed.

Drama does not just walk into your life. Either YOU create it, invite it, or associate with it. Don’t complain about it if you are the one driving the drama bus.

The better you feel about yourself, the less you feel the need to show off. Be yourself. Be Happy.

Social Media tip of the day: Ask yourself one question – why am I about to post this? Seek respect, NOT attention. It last longer.
You can’t fix stupid…but you can watch it in action on Facebook every day!
Privacy is dead, and social media holds the smoking gun. / Have the wisdom to show restraint. –Proverbs 23:4

Definition of Challenge: Demanding, testing one’s determination, willpower, abilities, skills and resources. A call to fight, as a battle.

Entitlement is a delusion built on self-centeredness and laziness. Nobody ever said that life was fair. Deal with it! Don’t compare your life to other peoples life. Live your own. Keep Calm and Mind Your Own Business…

“Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle.”
-Plato

BE STRONG. BE LEGIT. BE PREPARED.
