Good Morning All..
*****Long Post AIert*****
I had two friends call telling me that their company is laying off and they don't know what to do as most companies are not hiring in the 4th quarter. My friends told me that these companies didn't care about us and now they have to figure out what to do. They have given years of service and were dedicated to their jobs.
I mentioned that having multiple streams of income is the only way we can survive in this world. Even with this conversation the individuals said they didnt have time to take on anything else because they needed to look for a job. I was confused.
My confusion was also heartbreak. We just talked about how these big corporations really don't care about the little person but yet and still, they were both not willing to do anything to make it better. I started wondering why was it so easy to say No on taking a chance on themselves.
We see people on social media taking trips, buying houses, buying cars, and baecations all the time. Everything looks perfect. Everyone looks happy, but that is not always the case. Do we not realize that those people who are really doing well for themselves are not generally doing it with one stream of income and that their success was a journey. We do not realize that so many people are becoming entrepreneurs to supplement their income, they want to leave a legacy, they don't want to punch a clock, they want personal freedom so that they can spend time with their family, & because they want to put their sweat equity into themselves verses making money for someone else.
We hear people say that we have to step out on faith, and that God will see us through and that God will provide, and I believe that with my entire being, my spirit, my heart, my soul everything believes in God, however we also have to take the first step. if we truly believe that, God will do all of these things then,
Why is it so difficult for us to step outside of our comfort zone?
Why is it so difficult to believe in ourselves?
Why is it so difficult for us to have a mustard seed faith? 
Why do we think that having 2-3 jobs is our only option?
God will send us provision and the unfortunate part is that because it doesn't come in the packaging we think it should or it doesn't make sense, we walk away from it.
God will provide and he sends us provision. We have to be ok with looking at the unconventional methods while standing strong on our believes. 
* Believe in yourself
* Step out on faith
* Be willing to put in the work
* Be willing to sacrifice for the short term So that you're blessing show in the long term
* Be willing to invest in yourself
* Love yourself more than you love the world
* If you don't do it for yourself, do it for your family 
* Be the role model for your children and your grandchildren 
Everyone be BLESSED!!!
