Great at

Great at

We were told that we would be great by someone who is great at their own version of being great. There is a mass of greatness going on here. This person is sooo great. Can you believe how great they are?  
Let’s take a look and see some of their “Greatness.” 

Here's a list of some of the things they are great at. 

Great at causing confusion... The Best to Ever do It  
Great at freezing food banks... Just ask the millions it will affect  
Great at pointing fingers… The Highlight of his life. Cause one thing for sure and two things for certain, it wasn’t him. Blame it on the Rain  
Great at causing chaos... How great? Over kill Great!   
Great at firing… The “GOAT” The Greatest of All Time  
Great at displaying disparity... It’s my way or the highway  
Great at storytelling... Mr. Wake up to Make up  ...

Hazing

This is in reference to fraternities and sororities who participate and initiates hazing.
Recently a young, black male was killed during a hazing incident while trying to become a member of a fraternity. This young man lost his life only because he wanted to be accepted and be a part of something. Something that was so meaningful to him, but something that was so unworthy and deserving of him.

Do you not know, hazing is form of cruelty?
Black men have been embarrassed and humiliated enough throughout their life.
They were beaten by their white slave masters for years back in the day and here we are, doing the white man a favor by still carrying on that tradition.

Are you saying the cruelty, beating, bullying, humiliating and degrading your brother man is something that makes you hold your head up high and be proud of? You as a leader orchestrating these rituals, does that make you “a man?” Does it make you feel empowered? Do yo...

Employee of the Weak

So on jobs, it’s nice and rewarding to be recognized and commended for your outstanding work performance. However, even though you are one of their greatest assets, there still are times when many managers and bosses tend to overlook the greatness and value you bring to the company.  
You are super extraordinary, you go above and beyond, you never miss a day, you always on time, your work ethic is top tier… You strive hard to seek that praise, acknowledgment and award. And because you stand out above others, you finally, yes finally get the recognition you so deserve.

But over the last 10 years or so, it’s amazing how I have noticed how managers don’t acknowledge the exceptional workers anymore. The ones that help their shift flow smoothly. They see them and their work ethics and they are glad that worker came to work that day, but that’s it. No “thank you,” no “good job,” no I appreciate you, no nothing. 

And as far as appreciat...

RepubliCAN’T

Who wants the lime light and attention focused on them for being an outcast? Not I said the chicken.  

If you allow your core values, integrity and beliefs to be altered, changed or persuaded by threats, bullying and intimidation, and you are in total fear of going up against the “present dent,” (the dent that is plaguing our country), then why are you even in office?

This administration is more like Child’s Play. It’s not even “Hi, I’m Chucky, wanna play?” It’s more like, Hi I’m Chucky, you better play. It’s the making of threats and making it understood that you BETTER play the game I play and do what I say.  
And if you refuse, argue, challenge, debate, disagree, or even have an opinion different from mine, then you can indeed expect extreme forms of retaliation. 

So yall, we got viruses, diseases and outbreaks, but guess what? It’s not from the CDC, it&rs...

You’re FIRED

Whether you have been with the company for years, whether you worked everyday, been on time everyday, never missed a day, was employee of the month, or hell, even the employee of the year, you know what? You’re FIRED!!!  
You’re fired, no you’re not, yes you are, no you not, yes you are, never mind, no you’re not. Musty was like, oh oops, my bad. Where those people we fired? We need them. Now they scrambling trying to find and re-hire those “essential” workers back. But that’s okay, that’s how a functional government operates.  
Welcome to this country. This is how we’re functioning. So what we gonna do is, we’re gonna make the mistakes FIRST and we’re going to fire people that are crucial and of higher importance needed to operate these companies, but don’t worry, we’re gonna figure it out later and eventually try to hire them back.   

But see, this is what happens when you got so many people unqualified for the...

Michael vs LeBron

Why is that even a discussion?  
Why everything gotta be a competition, a comparison or even a debate? Michael Jordan was the “GOAT" of his time and generation. LeBron is the “GOAT” of this time and generation. But so is Steph Curry, Kevin Durant, Chris Paul, James Harden, Kyrie Irving, Luka Doncic, Ja Morant, Nikola, Shai, Victor, Giannis… and so was Larry Bird, Dr. J, Magic, Kobe, Wilt, Kareem, Shaq, Dirk… 

To be a GOAT in this comparison, it consisted of the help of other teammates as well. No one EVER played a game and scored ALL the points and assisted themselves.    
It took a Team effort to help set up those shots made by Michael and LeBron. And that consisted of assisting, rebounding, guarding, defending and also observation and awareness of where that player was on the court when passing him the ball. 

And besides, who says they can only have ONE GOAT? Also, why do they have to have a limit? Well guess what...

Black History IS History

Black History is  Our history  
Black History is American history  
Black History is World history  
Black History is The history  
Black History IS History

Although it is celebrated in February, Black history is not just a month, it is every day history.  
Black History is a reflection of the segregation and discrimination and the sacrifices and struggles for our freedom for justice and equality. It reflects how far we have come, from where we were to where we are.

Black History is History. It is written by “We the People,” and in case you didn’t know, we are part of the “We.” Our story matters and our ancestors stories matter.  
So no matter how much they want to have “selective memory” and try to dismantle or impose restrictions, take away fundings, or pick, choose or limit how much (if any) is being taught about Black History, it is our job as parents, grandparents,...

The First 30 Days

Forget the First 48, how 'bout the first 30 days, smh. 

How is it that the House that has ALL the control is so out of control?  
How is it that we got an elderly grandfather acting like a kid with a new case of ink pens?  
With less than two weeks on the job and with all that is going on in the country, how is attending the Super Bowl a priority, and riding around the Daytona 500 racetrack benefiting our country? It's more like a senior citizen acting like a 12 year old that has never been let outside as a child.  

Because of the Musketeers and the disarray, this "house" has more lawsuits piled up in the first 30 days than the days in the month. People not knowing what's the deal, so many court cases and appeals.

The amount of disrespect and threatening to take away federal fundings from states who don't wanna play and do what you say, is wrong on so many levels. How are things great or even better when so many people a...

Your mind and your mouth

You can set the mindset and the tone of how your life will be.  
Yes, you can set the mindset with your thoughts and the tone with your mouth. Guard and protect your mind and speak into existence the life you want. Let’s talk about it.

The mind is very powerful and what you allow to linger on your mind can often affect your mood and attitude, especially if you allow the hurt, the pain and the negativity to linger.  
A person’s level of maturity determines if one moves on or lingers on, so are you lingering?

Don’t you know the Bible talks about both, the mind and the mouth. Here are a couple of verses that speaks on the mind.  
In Romans 8 v 6 it says, “For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.” Just remember, “those who live according to the flesh set their mind on the flesh.”  
And Romans 12 v 2 says, “And do not be conform...
