Concrete Jungle: Where you come from Doesn't Matter!




Each and Everyday you awake you should be grateful. There are times we question the Why's, When and How! The fact that you are here at this very moment; means that you were suppossed to be reading this at this specific time for a reason. Many of my readers are very intuned to music, Correct? So you guys know that song by Alicia Keys and Jay-Z "Empire State of Mind"? That is the song that inspired this post. Everyone; everywhere seems to be going thru some sort of struggle and lack. However that is a temporary state of mind. We must remember where we came from so we can know exactly where it is We wanna go! Now you may just wanna move from the location you live to a better one, You may wanna lose weight, You may want to start over; maybe you are coming out of a bad relationship or situation, You may need New Scenery, You might wanna go back to school and further your education, You may want to start a business, You may want to become a better person and work on yourself. Whatever the case maybe you have to start with a plan. Something in your mind got you to where you are at this very moment; This moment where nothing matters except for change! So what are you going to do to change and see the results? Most people make new years resolutions and by the second or third week they are back to their old habits and yes Old habits do die hard. However with the focus and resilience of making it happen than you can KILL old habits. The first thing you may want to do is right down all the pro's and con's of your current situation and how you want to change it, Once that is done you can brainstorm on ways to execute this plan, Next is to write a time frame down of the when you wanna see this goal come to fruition.

Often times we down ourselves or beat ourselves up because we feel we don't deserve these things, generationally know one else did it so why should you?, You come from the bad side of town, You don't have the expertise or education, You come from a single parent household, You grew up in a dysfunctional household, You come from a rural part in the south, You had a mother or father or drugs, You were abused, neglected, You were made fun of by others in school and the list goes on. Whatever the case maybe that was your situation IT WAS NOT WHO YOU ARE! You decide that! WE all have a story to tell and we all have to embrace it and than let it go. So no matter where you come from...IT DOESN'T MATTER..AS LONG AS YOU KNOW WHERE YOU ARE GOING!!!
