MaYouthSmart by Dan Opi

You get that sense of freedom and movement in your life when you start making those decisions instead of postponing them.

Tired and got lots on you mind. Take a breathe and be easy.

Lots of things happen and you get side tracked. Do not loose hope, a thousand mile walk starts with one step.

Opposite to what the selfish movement, it is all about me me me... i challenge our listeners to take the first leap and check on others same way you want them to check on you.

Not everyone in this life will be rooting for you, some are mean, some are nice, some are just plain not on your side doesn't matter who you are. And some on them will be your piece to the puzzle to get things moving but your experience with them is not positive. I would suggest to get things moving we need to swallow or pride to be able to get that piece of the puzzle, this doesn't mean we suck up or humiliate ourselves but respectfully reach out to try to get your goals moving.

As we take in advice sometimes we find ourselves cutting off the speaker or trying to show we know better. From out talk today we learn how to listen, pick up the nuggets we need then ask question to continue to grow.

Nothing comes easy, sometimes we need to put in the sacrifice and feel the pain to be able to appreciate what we have. Some take greater sacrifices than others.

We all have opportunities to join new groups, team or even workplace. The first instinct is to come in and prove yourself, try to be seen or takeover. What I am suggesting is to take your time to learn how members operate and then put in the work.

The little thing we do goes a long way. Taking time to fulfil our commitments builds your character and a life that will be full of peace and satisfaction. Here is a story i of how i almost cancelled my commitment that i already gave my word. Look at it this way, your word is your bond.

We tend to get busy and distracted to what's happening in our lives. And usually it robs us from enjoying moments and memories that we need to cherish. Please take in, make time and create memories for moments that you may or may not feel like is worth it.

Life happens and sometimes you need to do your own thing to get you moving in the right direction. But you have family or friends who come along and deter you from what you are trying to do. But it's time to say NO. No to relying on their promises or good intentions. As time passes you will be working on their plans but not yours.

Everyone is a master of procrastinating. This is why we should all take that step or opportunity to get close to our goals. Let us not waste time again!!!

Sometime we stress the little stuff or even big stuff but just know you are capable of achieving your goal.

Slow and steady is the name of the game. Maintain your focus do not let the shiny syndrome divert your progress.

Have you ever found yourself in a group or meeting and have some amazing ideas but you feel not anxious to speak up. This is why you should say something.

#SoberSunday Coming to think of it. Loosing is not bad at all its just a way to be better. learn from it and let's get it on the next one. Todays episode is about our team experience when we were #2 in a national competition.

#FinanceFriday We going to touch on the topic - paying yourself first. Inspiration dream from the book Richest man in Babylon: 7 Cures to a lean purse * Start thy purse to fatten * Control thy expenditure * Make thy gold multiply * Guard thy treasure from loss * Make thy dwelling a profitable investment * Ensure a future income * Increase thy ability to earn

For all those times we think we can't maybe we should try. #SimonSinek

It's been a couple months since I linked up with you MaYouthSmarts - I will try and not go on longgggg silence. Before I hit the bed here is one for the day. Be Happy. Good night

In life you will have friends and some are seasonal while some will be there for you. The question is are you a season friend to someone or are you a stick through thick n thin kinda friend. As they all say - it depends!

When they say individuals win games but team wins championships. We will always go to the next level when we have great people around us.

As a teenager i used to just chill with the old folks, helping them where i can and just having fun with them and joking around. Is it cool? For sure it is.

Act as though it was impossible to fail #DorotheaBrande Stop thinking of all the reasons why you can't be successful, instead think of all the reasons you can.

Before we can build the world we want to live in, we have to imagine it. Greatness starts with a clear vision of the future. Simon Sinek.

As soon as we enter the real world either after college or high school... we fast realize that the world won't give us what we want in a silver platter we got to work for it.

Mohammed Ali said Do not count the days, make the days count. What did he mean?

Whether we like to hear it or not. We are all safe made. The things we see, touch, hear, smell etc. make us who we are. The constant of all this is CHOICE!

The mind is always working. Coming up with ideas, new ways of doing things and we tend to not remember in a few hours or a day. The power of writing your thoughts is powerful. Enjoy!

Sometimes things do not go according to your timing, but do not loose hope.

Your circle of friends are important, you need friends that you can rely on, have fun with and grow together spiritually, physically and supporting each other.

It is always better to give than to receive. Giving back to the community.

Stay positive even though things get tough, stay on course and always rely on Gods strength to get you through.

When you try to multitask but you realize you are not doing much.

It is always great to come home to people you love and care for you too.

It might be hard to ask for your money from a friend but it's okay to remind them. Sometimes it might be they forgot or falling on hard times.

You may have been side tracked from your routine or goal, get back on it and keep going.

When you have friends who you are on the same mindset you support each other.

In life sometimes we think we haven't done enough to attain our goals and we might be a waste. Let me assure you that it is not so, as long you are taking steps towards your goals you will definitely be on your way to success. So keep your head up and be confident you are doing your best.

The new year is here and it come with a new fresh start to achieve your goals. Take advantage and keep on grinding towards your goals. Get exited for the new year with this short and sweet episode... yeeeeehaaaaa! lol

Once you hit an age where you are shaping your future, having goals in your life will be a tremendous asset. I wish I knew this while in high school or college. But on the bright side its never too late to start such a great habit. Setting goals will accelerate your success in life.
