A TEAMMATE is an IMPORTANT PART OF THE TEAM

      When you BUILD A HOUSE you NEED MORE THEN an ARCHITECT that DRAWS A PICTURE of exactly the size of every wall.

       HOW MANY TYPES OF BUSINESSES do you THINK IT WOULD TAKE to completely BUILD A HOUSE?

      When you BUILD A BUSINESS it will TAKE more than you DECIDING WHAT BUSINESS you want to INVEST YOUR TIME AND MONEY INTO.

       TAKE THE TIME to LEARN EVERYTHING that you WILL NEED to MAKE THE BUSINESS that you want to SUCCEED if you WANT TO have A CHANCE TO SUCCEED. 

       But ONCE you CHOOSE THE STANDARDS THAT YOU WILL LIVE BY DURING YOUR BUSINESS or YOUR PERSONAL LIFE then STICK TO YOUR STANDARDS NO MATTER WHAT ANY TEAMMATE MAY SAY.

       BECAUSE at THE END OF THE DAY the ONLY THING THAT MATTERS PERSONALLY OR PROFESSIONALLY is whether YOU ARE PROUD OF EVERYTHING THAT YOU CHOSE TO DO OR NOT TO DO EACH DAY.

      In LIFE whenever it TAKES A TEAM to GET IT DONE then remember that EVEN A BOSS HAS TO BE A GOOD TEAMMATE for the TEAM TO SUCCEED.  

      And if ONE DAY YOU REALIZE that YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN DO SOMETHING because it takes only ONE TEAMMATE ALONE then ACCEPT IT AND GET UP AND GET 'R DONE.

      

       

        

      

Having A CHANCE is AT LEAST A CHANCE

      Lots of PEOPLE TRY even WHEN everyone KNOWS that there will be ONLY ONE WINNER.

      Lots of PEOPLE MIGHT THINK ABOUT IT yet they DON'T REACT ON IT.

      But EVENTUALLY SOMEONE ELSE DOES REACT QUICKLY and THEY ACCOMPLISH IT and ARE SUCCESSFUL AT DOING IT.

     The TRUTH IS that OPPORTUNITIES YOU MISS OUT ON ARE NEVER LOST they are JUST TAKEN BY SOMEONE ELSE. 

    SOME PEOPLE ASK WHY something HAPPENS...

     SOME PEOPLE ASK HOW something COULD HAVE HAPPENED....

      SOME PEOPLE MAKE THINGS HAPPEN....

      WHICH ONE ARE YOU?

      IF YOU GOT A CHANCE THEN TAKE IT because IF YOU DON'T then YOU WILL NEVER EVER GET IT.

     

JUST BECAUSE means....ADJUST AS NECESSARY.

      You may NOT LIKE THE ANSWER but whether YOU LIKE IT OR NOT it STILL MEANS it is STILL THE TRUTHFUL ANSWER. 

      Which MEANS YOU HAVE TO ADJUST so YOU CAN ACCEPT THE ANSWER and JUST DO IT. 

      When the ROAD YOU ARE ON IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION then whether YOU LIKE IT OR NOT the journey YOU ARE ON WILL TAKE LONGER TO DRIVE ON.

     So YOU HAVE TO ADJUST and LEAVE EARLIER so YOU WILL HAVE TIME for a LONGER RIDE because YOU KNOW CONSTRUCTION MEANS LONGER RIDES.

     PRICES ARE HIGHER so it MEANS YOU HAVE TO ADJUST and SHOP SMARTER and STOCK UP when things GO ON SALE.

     JUST BECAUSE things CHANGE MEANS....YOU HAVE TO ADJUST so YOU CAN KEEP UP with all the CHANGES whether YOU WANTED ANYTHING TO CHANGE OR NOT.

     LIFE IS FULL OF CHANGES but to ENJOY LIFE YOU HAVE TO GO WITH THE FLOW ON YOUR LIFE'S JOURNEY and ENJOY EVERY MOMENT OF IT.

     REMEMBER that YOU CAN'T GET TOO COMFORTABLE IN LIFE because LIFE IS ALWAYS CHANGING so ADJUST AS YOU GO. 

     

     

It COULD BE just a CARD AWAY

      I wanted to LOOK for SOMETHING SPECIAL for someone yet I KNEW that NO ONE I NEW DIDN'T NEED MORE JUNK in their home. 

      So I walked around for a moment then I EVENTUALLY ENDED UP in the CARD SECTION AT THE STORE. 

      I  DECIDED I COULD SHOP FOR A SPECIAL CARD that WOULD MAKE SOMEONE SMILE. 

     And ANYTIME YOU MAKE SOMEONE SMILE FOR EVEN A MOMENT it is SPECIAL!

     I started out PICKING BIRTHDAY CARDS then I NOTICE some SECTIONS for THANK YOU CARDS, ENCOURAGING CARDS, as well as MANY FUNNY CARDS that WERE MADE JUST TO MAKE SOMEONE SMILE for NO REASON AT ALL.

     After around 30 MINUTES LATER I was HAPPY WITH the CARDS I PICKED and I HAD A BLAST as I READ some REALLY COOL CARDS that were actually available.

     How long has it been since YOU ENJOYED THE CARD AISLE at a store?

     The NEXT TIME YOU are BORED and YOU HAVE NOTHING ELSE TO DO just HANG OUT AND READ AS MANY CARDS THAT YOU WANT TO and REMEMBER that it is also TOTALLY FREE ENTERTAINMENT.

     

     

What moved into that old K-Mart building that closed over a decade ago this time?

    Are you old enough to remember the old K-Mart?

     If you do remember,do you remember the fun it was to be EXCITED about going to the BLUE LIGHT SPECIALS?

     Today I went to the new store that opened there and this time I think it might be in business for a while.

     Amazon took over the shopping in person and many great stores closed because SHOPPING FROM HOME became a QUICK CLICK OF A BUTTON.

     We used to SPEND TIME with friends and families as we SHOPPED but now we SIT HOME in our pajamas BY OURSELVES and JUST HIT THE BUTTON.

     UNFORTUNATELY that means that we don't end up SPENDING TIME TOGETHER SHOPPING and CREATING MEMORIES.

     We used to have fun SPENDING TIME SHOPPING at YARD SALES, ESTATE SALES AND FLEA MARKETS to HAVE THE EXPERIENCE OF POSSIBLY FINDING things TOO HARD TO ACTUALLY FIND.

     Nowadays all you got to do is go ONLINE at sights like Amazon,  Ebay  and many other places and YOU CAN FIND ANYTHING and EVEN MORE than you thought there even was.

    Yes I understand THAT IS KINDA COOL but GETTING AWAY FROM YOUR PHONE TO GO LOOK FOR THINGS is well..... IT'S THE THRILL OF THE HUNT THAT FEELS GOOD.

     And YOU GET EXERCISE TOO.

     And by GOING TO YARD SALES and FLEA MARKETS then YOU GET SOCIALIZATION as you HAVE FUN TALKING JUST TO HAVE FUN TALKING IN PERSON TO A REAL HUMAN. 

     How about THIS YEAR YOU START TODAY ONLY BUYING YOUR GIFTS to others IN PERSON ONLY?

     

     

     

At least I aint the only one....

     Buying electronics is FUN for SOME PEOPLE and yet SOME PEOPLE FEEL LOST IN USING IT. 

      Unfortunately I had to get a NEW PHONE because mine broke and although THE PRICE WOULD BE SCARY it was about GETTING ALL MY PHONE to WORK ON all my OLD STUFF.

    Luckily MRS. VALERIE at the PHONE STORE took her time and SHE SUCEEDED and it literally brought tears streaming down my face. 

     I had written down all my addresses and I had my passwords to reopen anything IF NECESSARY. 

    But ALL THE YEARS OF PICTURES that I TREASURED but HAD NEVER COPIED could GET LOST and that would BE UPSETTING. 

     And MY OLD TEXT... WELL....THOSE WERE VERY IMPORTANT TO HOPEFULLY GET SAVED.

      AND I had two friends who had recently passed away and THEIR TEXT WERE VERY IMPORTANT TO ME. 

      I had told Mrs. Valerie how IMPORTANT IT WAS TO RETRIEVE MY OLD TEXT so as the wires were stretched from my OLD PHONE and my NEW PHONE I SAT NERVOUSLY WAITING to FIND OUT.

     And.....THANK YOU MRS. VALERIE ! ALL OF MY PICTURES AND TEXTS WERE SAVED as well as ALMOST EVERTHING. 

     BUT ON MOST OF MY GAMES I had to START BACK AT LEVEL ONE.

     BUT I GOT EVERYTHING ELSE so YEAH FOR ME!

     It made me start singing a line of an old song that said.... YOU CAN'T ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU WANT but if YOU TRY YOU JUST MIGHT FIND THAT YOU GET WHAT YOU NEED.

     Remember that YOU MIGHT GET WET WHEN IT RAINS TOO but....WE NEED THE RAIN SO BE THANKFUL FOR THE RAIN.

     And STARTING OUT ON LEVEL ONE ON A GAME wasn't fun but I AM LOOKING PRETTY COOL AS I FLY THROUGH THESE GAMES FAST AS LIGHTNING.

    

    

     

     

     

PERHAPS YOU COULD but.... SHOULD YOU?

      Just because YOU CAN may make YOU THINK about DOING it but whether YOU SHOULD DEPENDS ON whether YOU FIGURE OUT IF YOU SHOULD OR SHOULDN'T.

      The SHORTEST WAY TO DO SOMETHING may TAKE LESS TIME but DOES TAKING LESS TIME HELP YOU IN THE LONG RUN?

      A LONG ROAD may TAKE LONGER but the BUMPS ON THE SHORTER ROAD IS FULL OF BUMPS which can cause a LOT OF DAMAGE TO YOUR CAR.

     So a SHORTER ROAD will COST YOU LESS TIME but it WILL ALSO COST YOU MORE IN CAR REPAIRS. So ASK YOURSELF if a SHORTER DRIVE is WORTH IT?

     Have you ever HEARD the phrase.....If it SOUNDS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE THEN IT PROBABLY ISN'T TRUE?

      Well TRUST ME...... IT PROBABLY ISN'T TRUE.

      But YOU ALONE GET TO CHOOSE WHAT YOU WILL DO so KEEP IN MIND that EVERYTHING YOU DO OR SAY during YOUR LIFETIME YOU WILL PAY THE CONSEQUENCES FOR.

      SO BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING OR SAY ANYTHING REMEMBER that IT IS UP TO YOU so CHOOSE WISELY.

       LIFE is LIFE and YOU GET TO CHOOSE WHO YOU ARE by WHAT YOU CHOOSE TO DO EVERYDAY OF YOUR LIFE.

       THINK BEFORE YOU REACT 🍄
