The Bootstrapper's Way
A true friend is someone who thinks you're a good egg, even though they know you're slightly cracked.
Last Tuesday, I met up with a few wonderful people that I am blessed to know, we took the time out to meet at a restaurant have some sushi and chat.
These wonderful people took the time to celebrate the fact that another book has joined the family.
To be honest, I was not going to make a big deal about this, I think it is because it reminds me of a part of my life that I classify as "unfinished business"
It brought up those memories reminding me that I left that part of of life without closing it off.
I started a PhD in Manchester UK with a focus on women entrepreneurs in Trinidad and Tobago. The aim was to spend 3 years out there and compile a body of research that could be used to advance both the state of women's entrepreneurship and empowerment
I was doing this in the middle of a very difficult time in my life, everything was shifting, things that I held dear were being shown to me as something else. I was truly in a place of confusion. I believed that a PhD would prove to both me and the world that I was enough, that I was worthy. So I sold my car and a few other items with the belief that I would find the cash to finish it. I thought that once I started the end would come. The money ran out, and I got an opportunity to live in Uganda. I took it with the intention that I would return to Manchester to complete the programme
The paper I was working on was presented at a few conferences. Someone saw it and asked me to get a copy with a hope of using it out in Europe.The paper is now a published book as at August 2018. I am still in a bit of a shock.This was never planned, it was never scripted, it was never the dream!
I have learnt to remain open, to remain flexible
I have learnt that these women around me are real! they care with a type of safety that makes me know that I am ok around them
I have learnt that giving and receiving are the same thing
I have learnt to let go
Peace

Barbados...I'm coming!
“Trust the process. Your time is coming. Just do the work and the results will handle themselves.”
Tony Gaskins
I'm excited to announce that I will be doing a book reading and signing at the Pages Bookstore in Barbados
This was orginally planned for May of this year and for many different reasons it did not happen.
At the time I was quite disappointed, I summed it up to me having to explain what happened because the ads were out and about, a couple of people had asked me about the event. I was buzzing
Then things were getting really out of sync. The venue was not confirmed, the accomodation fell through, the books did not arrive, the signs were there that this was not the right moment.
Forcing it was not an option.
When we get the signs and we force it, the Universe responds accordingly
Forcing it is when, despite the obstacles which will no doubt come, you feel ill at ease, there is no peace in the decisions
When I decided to postpone, I felt a peace even though I was disappointed.
We went back to the drawing board, and made another attempt at doing an event in Barbados and here we are!
On the 24th September 2018, Barbados will share lessons on the Journey! - tell all your friends!
How awesome is that?
When the outcome is sure we can afford to wait,
Peace

How well do you listen?
Listening means:
• opening your heart to fully experience what someone is communicating to you
• giving absolute attention to the sound waves that roll off another person’s tongue
• mirroring the other person’s body language
• resisting the desire to speak until the other person finishes sharing his or her perspective
• being empathic
• putting your pride aside
• managing your emotion and internal dialogue • seeking to understand the other person’s needs and feelings - Kyle D Jones
How well do you listen?
For me it is a conscious effort to remain present. Remaining present is holding off any judgement, asking questions to ensure that I fully understand what is being communicated. Remaining present is me not hatching a response before the person has completed their point.
I practise listening because it is a wonderful way of learning. It provides a platform for building emotional intelligence.
In this conscious effort to listen I have found myself saying "I hear ya" quite a bit, both to family and to friends. "I hear ya" is my way of letting others know that I am listening, I am being present.
I have learnt that when I am fully present, in the moment, minus the judgement, the lessons and the feelings involved pave the way for so much richness. It opens a path for as Kyle Jones mentions, empathy and understanding.
Listening is a way of letting go of control. Of knowing that things may not be our way, and that is not the end of the world.
Listening allows for a new perspective, a different view
Listening allows for the total belief in self!
As Maya Angelo people will always remember how you made them feel

What Eliminates the Need to Alter/Fix?
Acceptance · Internal mental and emotional reconciliation that eliminates the need to alter/fix what appears to be. · Being received as adequate, suitable, favourable reception. Iyanla Vanzant
Our default is to fix it, to make it better, especially as women. We want things to be our way, to be perfect, no hiccups, no static.We have a picture in our head of how it is supposed to look, how it is supposed to be. If that doesn't happen we become disappointed, we doubt, sometimes we even blame others.
Acceptance, I have learnt is the first step in making a transformation. Right where you are is the start. Not where you think you are supposed to be, not where you know it can be, but right where you are, start there then move.
If it is raining, accept that, then decide. Sometimes we go off on moaning about the rain, and why there ought to be sunshine and yada yada yada!
Acceptance does not mean that you like what is happening, nor does it mean that there can be no room for improvement. Acceptance is an honest starting point, sometimes it can be hard to face the truth! that is usually the challenge with acceptance! We just cannot believe we are where we are, given what we believe we know.
If we eat too much junk at the moment and we don't accept it, then there can be no transformation
If we are workaholics at the moment and we don't accept that for what it is we will continue to justify why we spend more time at work, with work than tending to our dreams or our families
If we are afraid of being hurt so we hide ourselves away or chase others away then there is no room for transformation.
The movement is first in stopping and accepting
Accept that
Peace

A Different Wake Up Call
“
We cannot live only for ourselves. A thousand fibers connect us with our fellow men; and among those fibers, as sympathetic threads, our actions run as causes, and they come back to us as effects.”
Herman Melville
This morning as I locked my door to jump into my car to start my day as I was about to enter the car I saw a man lying on the road with blood gushing out of his head. At first glance I honestly thought he was dead. He was not moving. I took a few steps closer, as I was about to move, a few other people who were passing by stopped, then everything kicked in, movements started to happen.
calling the ambulance
finding his folks
checking for a pulse
we waited for a while until the ambulance came, until his parents came - they were screaming and in shock
the parents went with him in the ambulance
A few minutes later we got the news, he did not make it
He got up this morning and decided to take a run and that was it!
He is gone
I thought about how many mornings I wake up to take a run, all alone, singing in my head along with the music that I play
How many times I wake up and just move around with no one knowing where I am or what I am doing!
Taking the time to connect with nothing!
Today I got a different type of wake up call
May his soul RIP!
Peace

Spiritual Mirrors
Spiritual Mirrors - Olivia Jade
Yesterday, there was a meet up with the ten young ladies from the St Jude's Home For Girls.
A very good friend sponsored a trip to the islands off Trinidad's West Coast. This was a first for all of us, boarding the boat and learning the history of the islands that make up part of our country's history just off the coast of Venezuela.
They thought we would get out and take a dip in the water - no chance people! of course they were a little disappointed when they heard that there would be no swimming.
Despite that we had a great time, the ferry was comfy, there were lots of laughs and we were able to spend some time after the trip getting their favourite - Fried Chicken!
I probably have said this many times - this is one of the best things I have ever done, the feelings that I feel spending time with them is unparalled. Despite some of the tough moments- because there are many serious situations within this dynamic, I have learnt about having courageous conversations, non-judgement,love with no conditions and saying no.
Thank you to all that made this happen.

Discipline is Focused Doing
Our task is but to continue, as fast as possible, the necessary process of looking straight at all the interference and seeing it exactly as it is
ACIM
Distractions and deterrents will come. They always do.
I have learnt that making the principles of discipline and consistency a part of your life is vital. Not much can happen without discipline and consistency.
Motivation is a part of it but there are some days when motivation can only go so far.
This is where the discipline comes in.
Discipline is about showing up, it is about consistency, it is about being self aware, being honest and true to you then to others, it is about keeping the big picture, keeping the vision in sight, despite how it looks at the moment, discipline is about having patience and faith and self belief.
Many people associate discpline with punishment- I have learnt that there is so much more to discipline.
Discipline is focused doing. You must do the thing that you know you have to do in order to get the results that you want.

Healing doesn’t happen through avoidance
You don’t heal just because you avoid triggers. You don’t heal just because you avoid being wounded. Healing doesn’t happen through avoidance. Healing happens through deliberate and intentional brave work. Healing happens by standing in the ebb and flow of life and relationships and finding new ways to communicate your pain and be heard. Healing happens when you find people who love you more than they need to defend and protect themselves. Healing happens when you listen and they listen. Healing happens through the bravery and courage.
Do not wish for a life free from triggers. Do not wish for a life free from pain. Wish and choose the abundant opportunities that allow you to have new endings to old stories.
#mindfulmft
The "strong" narrative - the one where we are given points for not crying in public, in fact, points for not crying at all - the fellas are given that badgemore than the women.
the one where we act tough as nails - pure hate and acting normal.
The silent narrative - the one where we are encouraged to "keep it quiet" not to shame anyone, and most importantly not to shame the family.
the one where we are also encouraged to "keep it quiet" until "it" is "fixed"
How does that work when "it" starts seeping out of us in the form of illness, emotional eating, being defensive, avoidance through overworking, shopping, sex, drugs?
Avoidance was my choice.
Just deliberately stay away from the situations that trigger me
Trust me, that shit is not a long term solution.
I am not saying to go looking for drama, I am saying if you are supposed to have a conversation, have it before the proverbial shit hits the fan.
If you ae avoiding hurt by not dating or getting close to someone, or isolation - this action will not heal the hurt or find you that partner.
Whatever you are avoiding, find the courage to face it, there is something empowering about not being an observer.

Choices
Choice - to select your preference or desire from the possibilities presented. Your choice is your power, it is a function of your free will given to you by the creator. When you make a choice you are saying to the Universe that there is a desire, an idea, a vision, an intention, a dream that you are choosing to advance. When you fail to make a choice you are saying to the Universe that you have no power because every choice you don't make is a choice you are making.
- Iyanla Vanzant
I was having a conversation with a someone yesterday, there was a difference of opinion on a matter at hand. I said in the end it is always a matter of choice. They did not believe this as many times "people have no choice"
This led to a further discussion about what is "having no choice"
I believe that we always have a choice, this is where our power lies.
Making no choice is also a choice
Blaming others is also a choice
Accepting a situation is also a choice
regardless of the circumstances, any move that we make is based on a choice we make either consciously or unconciously.
So let's say one was sent to jail for a crime that they did not commit, the choice there is - what do I now do with this situation that I have found myself in, one which it seems at the moment that I have absolutely no control over?
Therein lies the choice
What do you do in a situation, any situation based according to Iyanla, the possibilities presented.
Many of our choices are based on our beliefs- and many of our beliefs are never questioned. The beliefs we have either comes from our family, our parents, our experiences, religion and society. Beliefs demand loyalty. When one believes in something they remain loyal to it, going against the belief brings up guilt. So rather than feel guilty about questioning the belief or discomfort from being different, we make a choice.
Mind you, I am not saying anyone's choice is wrong, to me if it is working it will be reflected in how you live your life,in how you feel, in your health, in your relationships
The most beautiful thing is, with free will, we can choose again, choices are unlimited until we die
So, how do you make choices?
Do you do it based on fear or love?
Do you make choices based on unquestioned core beliefs or not?
Do you make choices to avoid uncomfortable situations? (this one is me!! my hand is up!)
Do you make choices to enhance how you feel?
Do you make intentional choices?
One thing I have learnt is - every day in every way we are all making choices
Look at your life and it will tell you how well those choices are
