Already Doing Them

Shaun Bradford

List three jobs you’d consider pursuing if money didn’t matter.

I stopped focusing on money a few years ago to pursue what I truly wanted to do, which included: creating whatever I imagined, supporting others’ dreams, and working towards a kinder, healthier world. As they say, the money will come; and honestly, it has. I am beyond blessed.☺️

I Could Relax More

Shaun Bradford

What could you do more of?

Had to really think about this one. I would say I could relax more. Relax, not rest. I believe I get an adequate amount of rest, even though I only sleep a few hours a night. However, I never truly relax. Even in my down time, my mind is forever racing, and not in a bad way. It just never slows down, and this often causes tension. So, I could relax a bit more. Exhaling…

Put God First

Shaun Bradford

What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?

The best advice I’ve ever received was to put God first. Over the years, I have tried to do things my way and on my own, and they never quite worked out right. Then, when I started putting God first—truly putting Him first and trusting Him with the outcome—everything started working out, and even better than I imagined. So, putting God first was the best advice I ever received.♥️

Born to Lead?

Shaun Bradford

Do you see yourself as a leader?

Many, many moons ago—going back to childhood—I was always the leader. Always the first to take charge. Always the first to hand out orders (yeah…I really thought I was running things😄). The most outspoken, most reliable, most helpful, and one who could bring others together. However, with that being said, I was also the first to be reprimanded or disciplined when things didn’t go right. Oh… and not to mention, I was also the eldest child and grandchild of a very large family (my mom had six children and my grandmother had eleven). So, the title and expectation were given to me without regard for whether I wanted it or not. I was the leader by default.

Fast forward to today… Today, I try my best to shy away from leadership roles (official and unofficial), but I keep taking them on. Honestly, it’s hard for me not to. The role is like second nature. However, the question posed is whether or not I see myself as a leader. Short answer—sometimes, but most often others see it before I do.

Thanks for asking the question! Wishing everyone a lovely day.♥️
