Your perspective can impact your thoughts everyday. It’s more important than you would think. I used to have a great attitude but often times my perspective was negative and thus would impact my approach to do things.

What if you could change your perspective? What if you could simply change your thought process of how you perceived a situation from a different vantage point?

It’s time to view your situation from a different vantage point to gain clarity, vision and insight.

Before I began my entrepreneurial journey in October 2015, I used to think self-development was completely corny. I never sought after it. I didn’t develop myself. Why? ‘I’m not weak. That’s for weak people.’

That’s how I thought. Until I signed release papers from Schaumburg School District 54 and found myself out of a job. I wasn't winning in life and I wanted to know how the winners win.

This is when I began to include self-development as a part of my daily routine. Listen to how my routine plays out in a day. It’s no accident that I’m where I am today and I attribute that to a solid self-development regimen.

Friday used to be MY day. I couldn’t wait for Friday. Especially if it was a hard week at work. I used to round up my favorite crazy crews and “get down on it.”

I had two crews that I rolled with and I had nicknames for them. 1) The A-Team and 2) The Usual Suspects. I’m not joking, these were my people that I rolled with from Laremont School.

But as time wore on, I got tired of the same thing giving me the same results. Get up for work (begrudgingly) on Monday, work my ass through Hum Day (Wednesday) and postpone excitement for TGIF (Friday).

It was a broken plan. I finally decided to change that in October 2015. It was the best decision I’ve ever made.

Most people hang on to friends that they know are bad for them. Toxic friends. People that aren’t looking to help them become better and aren’t (and will never be) happy for their success.

Why do people do this to themselves? I know why - I used to do the same damn thing. It’s because people hold their friends opinions in higher regard than their own opinions of themselves.

I was forever seeking approval from my friends. Like I needed to be validated for my purpose in life. Listen to me, get rid of these garbage “friends.” If you need a crash course on how to rid yourself of these fools, listen to the list of Teflon Don Positive Mindset episodes below:

Teflon Don Positive Mindset - 032: Who Gives a Shit What Your Friends Think About You

I’ve always been silly. It’s in my DNA. I can’t be too serious for too long. It drives me insane. I use these silliness skills to bring joy and happiness to peoples lives.

There are so many people that lack energy that are in desperate need of a shot of good energy. Look, be the change. Be someone that’s going to infuse some energy and life into your environment.
