Smiling because it’s a season where I actually see and feel myself growing and evolving, and I like it.
No…

Created For Greatness
Good Morning☀️
God created you—specifically YOU—to achieve great things for His glory. Your calling, purpose, and gifts are grand—extraordinary, even! Please don’t take them lightly. Instead, embrace them and walk in who God created you to be.♥️
Love you,

Don’t Throw In The Towel Yet
Earlier this morning, a friend texted me a photo I sent them a few years ago. It was a list of things I wanted to achieve within five years (2019-2024). After reading the list, part of me wanted to focus on what I hadn’t accomplished, while the other part smiled at what I had. Y’all, I have only achieved two or maybe three out of seven things. The other four are still a work in progress. But guess what?! 2024 is not over yet! I still have a few more weeks to cross off another item or two. Smiling
On another note, when things don’t go as planned, please don’t dwell on it. Use it as an opportunity to do something else or try something new. Just think of it as God’s way of shaking things up to keep you moving.
Love you!♥️

Never Lose Sight Of Your Purpose
Good Morning☀️
Be careful not to let your current situation (good or bad), emotions, lack of support, or other people cause you to lose sight of your purpose. Always keep your purpose in sight.♥️
Love you,

Do You Know What You Want?
Good Morning☀️
On November 28, 2021, I was reading Will Smith’s memoir, WILL. Meant to share this yesterday but forgot. When I tell you I took sooooo many notes. If you haven’t read it, it is so worth reading. Here’s an excerpt from my entry.
Shaun’s Journal Entry: November 28, 2021
“JL or James Lassiter asked Will these questions while trying to figure out what Will really wanted. Will had no real direction just wanted not to ever be broke again and to be able to have fun.
Questions:
What is the dream?
What are you trying to build?
What do you want?
Stephen Covey, in The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, said there are only two human problems: (1) knowing what you want, but not knowing how to get it; and (2) not knowing what you want.”
Again, I loved this memoir!
I believe we must ask ourselves JL’s questions from time to time to see if our answers have changed. Is our dream still the same? What are we trying to build? What do we want? Even though I am now on the other side of 50, the core (which I believe is most important) of my answers remain the same. I know what I want.
For years, I used to dwell on what Steven Covey listed as the first problem—knowing what I wanted but not knowing how to get it. However, today, I don’t even think about how I’m going to get it anymore. God is finally the captain of my ship and I’m sitting back enjoying this ride called life. I trust Him to get me to wherever I belong. He knows best. Listen, life is so much better when we allow God to lead, and when we’re obedient.
Question:
Do you know what you want? Your core desires, not the superficial ones.
This is all for now. Thanks for reading. I hope you had a great Thanksgiving!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
You Choose
I couldn’t choose which Facebook memory to share, so please choose the one that resonates most with you at this moment.
Facebook Memory #1: November 27, 2022
Stay focused!
Facebook Memory #2: November 27, 2023
Keep smiling!
At the moment, they are both significant. Right now, I’m all smiles, and as you know, smiles are quite contagious. So, even though we are miles apart, I hope you are smiling. As for staying focused, I am definitely focused.♥️
How about you? Which did you choose?

You’re Already Prepared & Equipped
I shared the message above weeks after taking my second major leap (April 2021). My first leap was joining the Air Force—both decisions were spontaneous and life-changing. Before the second leap, God assured me that I was covered and had everything I needed to create the life I desired. It took me a minute to grasp that I really had everything I needed. Well, today, I realize that I do.
Listen, don’t wait to start! You are already equipped and prepared to begin creating the life you desire, now!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
