Always Believe In Yourself

Good Morning!☀️

Simple, yet necessary words to live by daily—

“I believe in me.”


Originally shared last year, October 3, 2023, with the caption, “Be your biggest cheerleader.”

Listen, if no one else believes in you or what you have to offer the world, make sure you do. You must believe in YOU.♥️

Love you,

Love, Peace, and Prosperity

Good Morning!☀️

Decided to stick with the trend and share the same post I shared last year and the year before.

Originally shared on October 2, 2022 with a simple caption, “Wishing you love, peace and prosperity.”

Today, I am wishing you love, light (to guide you through the tough times), peace, joy (you deserve it), and prosperity. May God continue to bless you and keep you under His care. Always keep God first, and stay covered.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

October

Good Morning!☀️

Not only is today a new day, but it’s the beginning of a new month. Meaning, it’s the perfect time to start afresh and refreshed. Remember, yesterday is gone. You can only move forward from here.

Praying you have a wonderful day and a beautifully, blessed month. May God bless everything you touch and set out to do.♥️

Love you always,

Shaun

Make It Happen, Today!

Good Morning!☀️

Whatever you desire, it’s up to YOU to make it happen. Please do not wait for your circumstances to change. Start with what you have. Yes…that little bit. And God will do the rest. I’m telling you what I know to be true, not what I’ve heard.

Last year I shared, “Make it happen.” Two years before, I did just that. Smile. And I continue to do so today.

Shared on September 30, 2023 with the caption, “No more excuses. Make it happen.”

September 30, 2021

This was me making it happen with the little that I had.

Believe me, God has placed everything you need to get started within your reach. The outcome doesn’t have to be perfect. God will perfect things along the way. All you have to do is initiate the process and He’ll do the rest. No more wasting years waiting—like the man in the Bible sitting by the pool waiting for someone to put him in so he could be healed. No, no more waiting! You need to make it happen, TODAY!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Hello Sunday

Happy Sunday! I pray your weekend is going well. Mine has been pretty great so far. I can’t complain.☺️


Today’s Hello Sunday is a reminder that the person people see you as today has been years in the making, even decades. Meaning, you did not become who you are overnight. It’s also a reminder to be gentle, kind, and patient with yourself as God continues—because the process is never ending—to shape and mold you into the person you know you’re meant to be. Remember, who you are today is only a glimpse of who you’re becoming. Smile♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Forever Looking Up

Life is beautiful. Forever looking up. It’s the only way to look!

While reading one of my fellow bloggers’ posts—Wynne Leon (Surprised by Joy)—I saw this quote and it spoke to my soul. If you know me, just about everything speaks to my heart, soul, and/or spirit. Smile. Well, I felt this one. For me, it captures the way I feel about peace, joy, love, and freedom. Once you’ve tasted them, you’ll forever want more. It’s where I am in life, today; and I am so loving this space.♥️

It’s A Mind Thing

Good Morning!☀️

There are many things that can hold us back, but sometimes we’re the ones holding ourselves back. When I used to hear people say this, I would be like, “They just don’t understand,” “They have support,” “They didn’t have the struggles I did.” And those statements were valid and very real at the time. I felt them wholeheartedly.

Well, a few years before I decided to take my official leap into the entrepreneurial world, I had a brief conversation with international motivational speaker, Dr. Cheryl Wood, about my aspirations for my future. When asked why I wasn’t already pursuing them fully, I listed all kinds of excuses. She just listened and when I finished she said, “When you’re ready, you’ll do it.” She said she heard the excuses, but whenever I was ready, the excuses wouldn’t matter. Honestly, I thought she couldn’t relate. She was married. I was going through a divorce. She had someone to fall back on. I had no one.

Then, in 2021, while sitting at my desk working my 9-5, I decided I was ready. I still wasn’t married. Didn’t have anyone to support me. However, I knew with all my being and heart I was ready. That’s when I took the leap and never looked back.

Now, here I am nearly four years later, still no husband or extra support, and without any regrets. Y’all, I’m finally doing what I love. It may not look like what I envisioned, but it surely does feel like everything I imagined. Now, don’t get me wrong, life isn’t a cakewalk. I still struggle at times, but it’s different. Today, I don’t mind enduring the difficult times because I know without a doubt God’s got my back. Also, as I mentioned earlier, I am finally doing what I love.

Here’s what I shared 10 years ago—the Facebook memory that prompted this post.

Whew!! I’m so glad I’m not where I was ten years ago, not even a year ago. Blessed.☺️

The caption on the picture says it all, everything that was holding me back was all in my head. My mindset had to change, first. Then, I changed.

When I tell you God is so good. I am so grateful He loves me like He does. Hands down, I am truly, truly blessed.


Well, that’s it for now. Thanks for reading.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Already Doing Them

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.☺️

According To God’s Plans

Good Morning! Have you ever been frustrated, disappointed, down, or even hurt because things in life just haven’t gone as planned? Well, according to your plans.

If so…

Let It Go!

Release every expectation you had for your plan because God has something better in store.

Here’s a quote from the late Bruce Van Horn along with the post I shared six years ago.

I shared this a couple of weeks after I had basically given up on my plans of finding a new home. After losing my house (due to divorce), I had promised my kids that the place we had moved into was only temporary. Well, eventually our “temporary” home began to look more like a long term stay.

After three years of searching for a place and things not working out, one day everything just fell into place. I found a house, secured the lease, and moved in the day before my son’s birthday.

You see, the year before, I had promised my son we’d be in a new place before his next birthday (no lie). So, I was really trying to make good on my promise. Well, by the time September of the following year rolled around, I still hadn’t found a place. Talk about being frustrated and disappointed. Then, one day I just let it go. I was tired. And that’s when it all happened. What I hadn’t been able to do in three years, God did in less than three weeks. To this day, it still amazes me how things happened. As I mentioned, we moved in the day before my son’s birthday.

Y’all, that’s only one of many examples of things happening according to God’s plan. As Bruce Van Horn put in his message from God, trust God’s love for you. Never doubt that He’s got you, completely!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Just Do It!

So serene.

I knew what I needed—to be near the water. So I made it happen.☺️

God is good…so good.


The decision is yours. Do what you need to do to have the day and life you desire. ♥️

Love you,

Shaun
