Do this before you start to advertise

"The first thing to do when you start your advertising campaign is to take a figurative step back. Revisit your market research and ask yourself these questions:

Who are my potential customers?

How many are there?

Where are they mostly located?

Where do they now find the information I want to provide?

What can I offer that they're not already getting from this other source?

What knowledge and skills do I offer?

What image do I want to project?

How do I compare with my competition and how can I be better?

Once you've answered these critical questions and you know exactly who you're targeting, with what, and why, it's time to devise your direct contact campaign."

What does it take to be great?

It takes a different kind of being for greatness. What you don't hear from people is that discomfort has a lot to do with your ascension to greatness. It takes courage to be great. It takes vulnerability. It takes challenge and it takes sacrifice. Sacrificing your moment in the sun for someone else to have theirs. You never know who will sacrifice their moment in the sun, for you. Look around you and be witness to the sacrifice you've given. Now ask yourself, who will do it for you? #GrabYourShades 😎

I am...

I am better than I was. I am my tomorrow. I am important. I am resourceful. I am confident. I am apologetic. I am vulnerable because I live in the world I created for myself. I am respected. I am loved. I am hated and I am unknown. I am a zoo keeper, protecting my caged feelings from a cruel world but I am strong. I am heart-driven and I am creative. I am challenged. I am a proud son. A proud friend and a proud brother. I am alive and I am rejoicing with every breath. I am flawed and not without error. I am a work in progress but most of all, I am ME! God isn't done with me yet! Thank you God! I am real and my God is too! 🙏😇👍💖

Be blessed and be you today.

What is maturity?

Maturity is when you realize everything that happens doesn't deserve your attention.

Tips on how to get the most out of your day before it starts!

Prepare the day, then SEIZE it. (Tips on how to get the most out of your day before it starts)

Your day should begin way before your day even starts. Here's some tips I use to make my day productive and less stressful:

• * Get up atleast 3 hours before you have to be anywhere. Yup, I said 3 hours. This is so you don't have to rush. Rushing ruins the day before it ever gets started.

• * Get some water or tea into your system for hydration.

• * Exercise - This is to get the blood in your brain working. Your brain is resetting in the morning, so by exercising your brain is getting what it needs to function clearly, creatively and reduce your stress. (SEX does count. Just make sure you both break a sweat, okay?)

• * Shower and take a moment to wash off anything troubling you. Let it go right down the drain. It's a new day.

• * EAT - I'm not saying to just throw anything into your body to feel full. This is important fuel for the first part of your day so be selective as to what you put into your body. (If you're picky about who you let in your house, you should be mindful of the food you put in your body - both can effect your vibe and your mood for the day.

• * Take a Moment - Pray, Mediate, just take a moment to be present of all things around you and within you.

• * Write something inspirational to yourself. Read something that will enlighten/inspire you. Plan to act on that inspiration TODAY.

• * Genuinely, tell someone Thank You today. (If a person inspires you, tell them so)

• * Tell someone (New/Old) you LOVE them.

• * Write down your 3 Top Objectives for the day that will make you feel great by the end of it. Brainstorm how you will attack and accomplish those objectives.

• *Dress like you care and the people who are important will notice. Plus, when you look good, you feel good and when you feel good, nothing can stop you. #Confidence

Prepare the day, now go SEIZE it. #CarpeDiem
