During the month of July, I decide to participate in Consistency Challenge hosted by Mattie James. This challenge required you to post to your blog Monday thru Friday for 20 days, add a photo/visual, write at least 150 words, and join the FB group to compete for a $1,000 prize. I will admit, I was a little mixed up about the requirements and the start date so I was not posting consistently in the beginning. I participated in the consistency challenge because I have not been

​​​In life we all encounter various highs and incredible lows. Try your best to stay positive, hopeful, and in control your responses. You will go through many emotions along the way, but just be patient for things to improve. Look at the rejection as a teachable moment, instead of feeling bad or defeated. Dust yourself off and try to see your rejections as re-directions. Take your time to process the situation, but do not miss the lesson during your journey! Just know s

What is your inspiration? Well inspiration can be found all around us! It can come in the form of a new idea, career opportunity, a special song, vacation spot, other creative people, or a beautiful flower! I have recently been inspired by a social media consistency challenge, the participants in this challenge are phenomenal and so inspiring. The vibes from the challenge has motivated me to post on my blog daily. The Verzuz battles on Instagram have been a source of inspi

Things will get BETTER. Stay focused and trust the PROCESS! Start by creating daily, weekly, monthly and quarterly goals. Break the goals down into smaller actions or tasks. Don't take the small wins for granted, each small step moves you closer to the bigger goal. Ask for help when needed, trust the process, and before you realize it the goal is achieved! #trusttheprocess #tuesdaythoughts #makeithappen #mjconsistencychallenge

During this unprecedented and uncertain time it is important to prioritize and protect your peace! While it is nice to help others, it's important to remember to take care of yourself first. Prioritizing your own peace is a form of self-care, self-love, and it should be non-negotiable. Here are a few ways you can protect your peace: Prayer and Meditation Writing & Journaling your thoughts Therapy or Counseling Sessions Walking /Biking /Running Acupuncture / Massages Eating

Some of these darn diets, weight loss programs, and fitness challenges are HARD to follow. They are so rigid, restrictive, and too hard to maintain. So I decided to take a step back and do what I can to make a lifestyle change and not overly complicate the process. My intention is not to be perfect, I just want to feel BETTER, look GREAT, know I'm HEALTHY, and rock any outfit that I CHOOSE. The best measure of progress is not reflected on the scale! #fitness #motivated #mjc

This verzuz battle did not disappoint! The last couple of days/weeks have been very heavy on my spirit...but God sent some joy last night. I had the pleasure of listening to DMX and Snoop Dogg on Instagram Live; it was just what I needed. I was so excited to see all the love shown between these two brothers...these Kings of Hip-Hop…real rap legends. The crowd was so hype; and the energy between DMX and Snoop Dogg was amazing! I felt the brotherhood, the love, the respect

Be consistent and stubborn about GOAL setting and making progress. When obstacles or detours occur...brush yourself off, refocus, push forward, and be FLEXIBLE about your methods. Everything will come together...just wait and see! #GOALS #INSPIRED #GOALDIGGER #MAKEITHAPPEN

Make the most of your weekend and allow your mind and body to rest by taking a TIME OUT. Starting on Friday night to Saturday night, I make a conscience effort to relax, recharge, and renew myself. This is a special time of the week that I look forward to. I do not shop, work, exercise, cook, or any form housework. I have done this for so long that my body automatically gets in relaxed mode around this time during the week. I use this time to get extra rest, recharge my m
