definiteness of purpose, defying the odds, emotional intelligence, emotionally scarred, self-talk, under no circumstances, you are not your circumstances
Change the narrative…
Speak less of who you were, speak more of who you are.
Think about the plot twist – you got this! – your ability to articulate the divinity within will make you a star.
Change the narrative.
Change the narrative.
Take the band-aids off, open your heart, let the world see your scars.
Speak of those defining moments, there’s no shame in the pain; tell the world, the things that break you make you who you are.
Change the narrative.
Teach the boys and girls how the lowest moments in life prepared you to reach for the stars.
Teach the boys and girls how you acquired emotional intelligence from being emotionally scarred.
Teach the boys and girls why everything you’ve been through has made you everything you are.
Speak life; plant seeds of wisdom in the youth, help the boys and girls grow.
Speak life; teach the youth to live and let die, preach the power of letting go.
Speak life, even if it kills you to speak your truth; you must know, everything you’ve been through has been preparing you for everywhere you must go.

A bird sitting on a tree is never afraid of the branch breaking, because her trust is not on the branch but on her own wings. Always believe in yourself! -Unknown
You are not defined by your circumstances.
You have the ability to defy your circumstances.
You have to keep an eye on your choices, your chances.
You will be refined via your choices, your chances.
Under no circumstances will I allow to think quitting is a choice, you will not squander your chances.
Under the circumstances, you will make better choices and prepare for better chances.
Stand firm in your decisions, walk in your purpose, don’t leave it to happenstance.
In the journey of life, you must step up, you cannot live a purpose driven life by happenstance.
Change your mind – change your life, it’s that simple at a glance.
To be or not to be is a choice, just be careful with that choice, you only have one life to live and NOW is your chance.
