Tell Me Something Good

Hello all. Please forgive me for deserting you. I have been engrossed in my Pick 6 filmings, but hopefully the motivation to dig in my blogs, screenwriting, and "Late for Work" is around the corner. It's a new year, and I'll look to be more loving towards those who do check out the blog. Happy New Year, all; I wish you continued success and prosperity. There are some things I'd like to accomplish and goals for my people this year. In 2011, I hope that we can be financially wise, supportive of our families, and more cognizant of our surroundings.

Of all the things I wish to DO in the new year, my greatest goal is to create more positive thinking. It's time to focus on the GOOD things. "Do" is capitalized because 2010 taught me that wishing for things to happen greatly prolongs your blessings, if not eliminates them. I do believe in "putting it in God's hands", but my experiences have taught me He helps those who helps themselves. Like Steve Harvey says, "Help me...help you." So moving forward, in 2011 and beyond, I want to help myself and others. Last night I was given a few tips to help reach those good things.

1. Fake-out the negativity  directed at you.
Commonly, our generation identify... "the haters". We talk about them like they are a nationally recognized organization or committee. You got the Democrats, the Republicans, and the Haters. The common discussion of them almost implies an obsession with being hated on. While there is no debate people do hate (for various reasons), the acknowledgement of their presence enables them to continue. Don't MENTION them. Give them NOTHING. The brief moment we recognize them, we give them free publicity, something they don't deserve. I know we don't promote BS at Pick 6, and I don't want you to either.

2. Stop complaining.
There are a lot of things I want to obtain, and at times I'm disappointed with the my standing in life now, but I'm BLESSED...right now. If God gave me nothing else, he's done plenty. Too often there is more value placed in the possessions and people we have then who has GIVEN us these possessions. Let's be appreciative of the gifts, the giver, and take care of business. I may not have the things I seek because I'm not doing ALL it takes to earn those things.

3.  Seek greatness.
My father told me as a teenager there are 3 type of people in the world: People who don't do sh...anything lol, Those who do what it takes just to hang, and ones who will do whatever it takes to obtain what they want. Who do you want to be? What do you want for you and your family? It's all relative to the individual, but I want greatness. I will be one of the greatest tv hosts to ever do it, while being a strong male figure for my family, my community, and my people.

Moving forward and taking these steps can help me in my quest to reach my goals. When people see me, I want them to tell me something good.
