Today, is the day after my 47th Birthday! January 10th 2021. A lot has happened leading up to this very point. Last week, I intentionally took an entire week off of my full-time job to focus and redirect certain areas of my life. I want the latter to be greater than the former. So, with that being said, I started off by purging from my past! I blocked all of the past energy from exes and the like that meant me no earthly good. I then purged my home. Starting with my room and then my closets. I had no idea how much I had been neglecting in my world. They say the outer is a representation of the inner. Looking over the last time I blogged, I guess there is a lot of truth to that statement.
I’ve been healing and didn’t truly understand that when you go through a healing process, sometimes you Must set aside other things so that you can give Yourself the attention you need. Once you have done the work in certain areas, then you will have the strength to address other areas. Well, this was my situation.
However, now I have the strength to address other areas in my life. My youngest daughter is in a much better place post experiencing her trauma and so am I.
Therefore, here I am. Once I finished those tasks at hand, I was able to be completely still and ascertain what I truly wanted to put out in the universe during 2021.
And it was this very thing!
I wanted to resume my healing process on a totally different level.
I wanted to address some of the Dreams, Goals and Visions that I’d set aside because at that moment, I had more pressing matters to tend to. But the moment turned into hours, the hours turned into weeks, the weeks turned into months and here we are!
So during my vacation this past week, I logged in to my website which had also been neglected for quite some time and I began to give it a long overdue facelift!
Upon doing so, I uncovered another area of my life which I had also unconsciously been neglecting.
The Vision I’ve had for years of my very own Podcast.
So I went to work once again to bring this vision to life!
One thing that is for certain, I have allowed Fear to be my dictator for entirely too long!
For example. Fear of never being “good enough” for Anyone, including my own self because of past choices! Now where on earth did this Lie Come From?! I know exactly where it came from, Stinking Thinking and me allowing Other People’s judgments of me to guide me down Their Self Righteous paths!
Well, I no longer believe this lie! I now realize that Everyone’s Testimony is Different! And just because a person’s path had less detours than mine did, this doesn’t make them Better than me or Vice Versa! Fact is, regardless of which path we choose in life, we may or may not arrive at the same destination! So maybe it’s best we focus on enjoying the Journey while we strive to get to our destinations.
Another example, Fear of Failure!
Truth is, Failing is a part of Succeeding! Ask any Millionaire or Billionaire. So if you Never Start, you will Never know if you were One Failure away from experiencing True Success in your Lifetime!
So I made a conscious decision to Jump! I launched the “Dear Future Hubby Podcast” scared! Now please keep in mind, I don’t have the slightest clue concerning what I am doing. Facts! But I know that I have Lived Life, I have Been Married, I have been Divorced, I have Survived Trauma on various Levels, I have Loved, I have been Loved, I have Lost and I want to find Love Again! So I must at least Try, right?!
So Trying I am. Ready or Not, I have Jumped!!!
Now, I will leave the rest up to GOD. After all, this is what my Brand, A Strongwilled Mind, is All about! Having the Faith to do the Impossible while all the while Believing that He who makes All things Possible will Guide me down the Right Path for His Glory, and for His Names Sake!
As long as I continue to Trust Him during the Process and beyond! The choice to launch my Podcast was an Intentional Choice! Why didn’t I name it something “more safe”? Because that’s not what was given to me.
And I Trust that each and every person Who is supposed to hear my Podcast and Who my Podcast is meant for will understand my why.
Slightly changing the subject now, I believe I am supposed to come into contact with specific people who are intricate parts of the many blessings that will eventually Manifest in my Life!
However, to make room for these specific people, I had to remove other people from my life.
Remember: Detox doesn’t only pertain to Food, it pertains to People Too!
Now back to the subject at hand, My Manifest List includes meeting Mr. Laterras R. Whitfield because he is the Inspiration behind my Podcast coming into fruition.
I listen to his Podcast, “Dear Future Wifey” quite often. And by doing so, he, as well as, his guests have provided so many nuggets of wisdom that instead of talking about what I wanted to do someday, I decided to just do it!
So I am putting this out into the universe for GOD to hear!
LORD willing, One Day I will have the Honor and the Privilege of meeting Mr. Laterras R. Whitfield live and in person.
I Know it is Possible. Because I Believe it is!!! However, listen to the Shift... Mr. Laterras R. Whitfield will also One Day have the Honor and the Privilege of meeting me, Teresa Reese!
Why did I change it up?! Because some of us have operated in the belief that our existence is “lesser than others” which is also a lie.
Listen Good People, we were Created in the Image of GOD!!! How Amazing is that?
This means, You are Amazing Too!!! Please don’t ever forget this Fact! Do your Best to Debunk the Stinking Thinking which has you believing that Others are Better than You! Or that You are Better than Others!
Now they may have more Experience than you do in certain areas of their lives, but Better than you?! No sir! No ma’am. You are So Significant! Start to Own It!
I truly believe that 2021 is the Year of Manifestation! What do You want to Manifest in Your Life? Do you want to become the very first Millionaire in your Family? If so, Begin to do the work! Don’t just write down your vision, make it plain and then execute your vision!
Who have you lost touch with? Could it even be with Yourself?!
I know this was a part of my Testimony. What is yours? Write it down in a journal if you must but Manifest your Present and Your Future.
However, I truly believe that there are certain people who posses the next set of instructions GOD has for us because sometimes GOD uses People to get His next instructions through to Us!
And if you don’t believe in GOD, the Universe is trying to get your Next Set of Instructions to you through someone! Even if that Someone Is You!!! Listen, Pay attention and Seek clarity.
In this Season, I am Praying for Each and Every Person who is connected to my own Destiny!
I pray that he or she will continue to walk in obedience to GOD and allow Him to have His Perfect Work through them for His glory and for my Story!
I also pray the same for you!
Eyes have not seen, ears have not heard, what the LORD has in store for you or me!
But first, we must Believe!
I declare and decree 2021 is just one of the MANY Years that GOD will Manifest Magnificent things in My Life and FOR ME!
I encourage you to begin to Speak those Things that be not as though they are.
Begin to Manifest your Dreams, Goals and Visions for your life!
Hopefully, in a way that will Give God All the Glory and make Him Smile! Be Encouraged.
