AnnoyinglyPOSITIVE

This morning we had the opportunity to sit down with one of my favorite voices on ClubHouse. I was first introduced to Brianna Greenspan after stumbling across her message in The Miracle Morning room. They focus on the SAVERS which stand for Silence, Affirmations, Visualization, Exercise, Reading, and Scribing!When you think of a non-threatening and welcoming vibe this room instantly comes to mind. It's a safe space for all growth seeking individuals searching for a greater understanding of themselves and their overall purpose. Bri is definitely an ambassador for goodness. When she speaks you'll find that your nerves and hesitation slowly start to drift away. Listening to this room has personally helped sort out my racing thoughts in the early hours of the morning. As well as help me build up the confidence to hop on stage and share parts of my Annoyingly Positive journey. If you're experiencing an internal push toward something new I'd like to personally invite you to check out her room on ClubHouse. Her story is packed full of inspiration and we are so thankful that she was able to share a few pieces of it with us. You can also get to know more about how she serves others each day by checking out her phenomenal Adult and Child friendly coloring book.  As a fierce chronic illness advocate she's been using the power of positive affirmations for over a decade. She's the Co-Author of The Miracle Morning: Art of affirmations, A positive affirmations coloring book designed to combine affirmations with mindful artistry.

Imagine starting your morning without coffee... Ok I get it not everyone drinks coffee. However, there are so many people around the world that start their day with a fresh cup of coffee.

Before you answer.. let's hear from the creator behind Zombie Koffee himself, Seth. In this short and inspiring episode we tap into some of the magic behind his vision.

We’re embarking on the last few days of the presidential election of 2020. How are you feeling? Mentally exhausted and annoyed... definitely a possibility at this point in the race. Some of you have disowned family and friends due to their lack of empathy or privileged perceptions toward reality in the US. We’re all humans and learning as we grow so remember to be KIND to all of your brothers and sisters red, blue, or indifferent this coming week. As long as you’re not hurting others I believe in broadcasting your passions to the world. Whether your candidate wins or not all of us will have a lot of work to do as a country and community. People are preparing for riots and possibly a civil war. America needs healing no matter who our commander and chief will be. Praying for everyone and voting for EQUALITY.

Comparing ourselves to others is typically a bad idea that leaves us feeling lesser than. What about in competitive roles? I’ve found that comparing myself to the top performer in sales inspired the drive to want to become better. Comparing can be helpful but also can become counterproductive. Focus on your journey today and all of your hard work whether you physically see results yet or not. In today’s episode I discuss ways to keep a rock solid mindset while chasing a new adventure. Good luck and remember to pull out the positives in each day. If you’re alive then you’re here to learn something or inspire someone else to do the same. Love y’all thanks 2,000 plays!

Sometimes all it takes is a simple picture. After 8 days without power here in Iowa I found myself dodging LinkedIn. I was so drained and emotionally stressed that I could feel the pressure building up. After being racially profiled as a Spanish speaking person due to my skin tone I was pretty disappointed in a certain individual. He had lashed out in anger demanding I stop speaking entirely. (He isnt Spanish he’s Caucasian). Speaking english for 30mins then demanding a brown person to stop speaking in another language as if they aren’t comprehending english properly is disgraceful. Spanish people are beautifully talented and amazing individuals. That just isn’t my culture as I’m part black and part white. I’ve come too far to allow anything someone else says to upset me... I’m a human and not a robot so I needed some guidance. Where do I go? I look up my thought leaders on LinkedIn and re-listened to their stories over and over. There it was..another classic picture of Sara Blakely drinking out of a larger than life coffee mug. This mug read “don’t quit your day dream”... Well damn! In that moment it hit me that my focus is on my vision and this was simply a lesson along the ride. No one can define us or make us feel lesser than. Peoples judgements on us matter only when we accept them into our spirit. My spirit is reserved for dreams and purpose. We might not have power but we hold all of the power still. Thanks for rockin with me through the storm everyone. Still bringing the light even if the switch won’t actually work. Haha, stay blessed and thank you for allowing me to be Annoyingly Positive! Thank you to the phenomenal powerhouse Sara Blakely for the fabulously impactful mugshot! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Some people like to sit around and chat about their views. I find refuge in picking the brains of people with massive influence. There's something about tapping into a world that's unfamiliar to you and finding so many similarities along the way. When people speak about hope and drive toward their dreams it's important to analyze the small parts behind the scene as well. Dreams happen for people who discover ways to get their voice and mission listened to. Join me as we sit back and hear how sticking to your passions can ultimately steer you right along the path that the universe has set out for you. He discusses the fun and privileges that take placee with shooting some of Hollywood's top A-List celebrities. Never give up and always keep it Annoyingly Positive. Thank you for your time Keith Major and Keith Major Photograpy for your raw inspiration!

There’s one thing that all of my wonderful guests have had in common. They all have established a daily routine. There’s nothing wrong with going throughout your day on a whim and taking things as they come. When you’re looking to grow and become an improved version of who you currently are then a routine is necessary. Throughout my career in the Automotive industry I realized that my morning routines set the tone for my entire day. This isn’t something that simply sounds good it takes work and determination. Do you work with someone who is LUCKY and seems to always be a step ahead of the rest? More than likely they aren’t lucky at all. They’re probably hyper-focused on their goals so they consistently do the things that have proven to give them success. Don’t roll your eyes at the person winning. Look at yourself and your actions throughout the day and seek out the areas of opportunity. Get up earlier without making excuses. Whether you’re working from home or working 70-80hrs a week you do have the time. Are your goals priority enough for you to commit to a proven routine? Leaders don’t make excuses they find a way. Thanks for allowing me to be Annoyingly Positive!

If your greatness makes someone else uncomfortable that’s their battle. It’s not our job to water ourselves down in order for others to feel more secure within their own space. When you’re on a purpose mission protect your dream like a baby. It’s ok to be weird when your intentions are solid. If we all walked, talked, and dressed the same life would get pretty repetitive. There’s beauty in our flaws it’s what sets us apart from the crowd. Embrace your unique qualities and stand strong in the storm y’all.

Read the books, watch the videos, find a way to keep pushing forward keep swimming. Every network is in my opinion going to become new version of itself.

As I was conducting essential tools run the other day I witnessed some really poor leadership. Micromanaging employees in front of customers is NEVER ok. Whether you have good intentions or not your actions matter. Today I discuss the need for servant leadership at this time. Build your employees up more than ever. Speaking to them as if they’re lucky to have a job at all is unfair and unkind. If you run into people who are essential at this time gasssss them up in a way they’ve never seen.
