  • What Is Love?
    1 Corinthians 13:4-8 says: “Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away”.
    1. Love Is Never Rushing Into A Relationship.
    2. Love Means Not Getting Jealous.
    3. Love Means Limiting Your Expectations.
    4. Love Means Keeping Your Relationship Off Social Media.
    BONUS: Love is about accepting the other person for who they are. Encouraging them to achieve their goals and dreams and respecting each other. Love is being there for each other through the good and the bad. Love isn’t about words, it’s about actions. You can tell someone you love them and then be verbally and physically abusive towards them at the same time.

  • How To Love Without Limits
    God loves all of us unconditionally and most times we don’t deserve it. He also loves us without limitations and I for one am thankful for that.
    1. Always Forgive No Matter What. Ephesians 4:32 says "Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you."
    2. Start Making Sacrifices. Romans 12:1 says "Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God--this is your true and proper worship."
    3. Always Let The Holy Spirit Lead You. 1 Cor. 13:4–7 says “Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.”

  • My Top Ten Rules For Success
    Hi and welcome back to another Podcast! I am super excited about todays topic, as I get to share my top ten rules for success. 
    1. Be diligent about what it is you want out of life. Assignment: What is that you want most out of life? Once you define what that thing is, what is your plan of action for getting what you want?
    2. Believe in yourself. Assignment: Think back to a time when someone closest to you stopped believing in you, how did that make you feel? Were you able to keep pushing forward with your goals and dreams?
    3. Do your research and then be sure to research some more. Assignment: Make a list of the things you know and the things you need to learn more about. Next to the things, you need to learn more about, write down the resources you will need in order to learn more about that subject.
    4. Know what your why is. Assignment: Define what your why is and be very specific about it.
    5. Stop asking for permission. Assignment: What was the last thing you asked for permission to do and why did you ask for that permission?
    6. Give more than is expected of you. Assignment: Think back to a time when you received more than what you thought you were going to get. How did that make you feel? Then think about someone else feeling the very same way you felt.
    7. Set boundaries for yourself. Assignment: What boundaries do you think you need to set for the people in your life? Who in your life is going to have a hard time respecting your boundaries? What is your plan for dealing with that person or those people?
    8. Stop living other people’s dreams and start living your own. Assignment: Think back to a time when you were living someone else’s dreams, how did you feel as you lived that dream? If you could do things differently, what would you change?
    9. Don’t give up every time things get tough. Assignment: What is the last thing you gave up on? How did it make you feel to be giving up? What would you different in the future?
    10. Live without excuses. Assignment: Think back to the last time you made an excuse, why did you make that excuse?
    Bonus Tip: Keep God first in all you do. I can promise you if you do this, you will go much farther in life.

  • Vision
    Hi and welcome back to another Elevator Talk Podcast. Today I want to unpack the word Vision
    Vision
    Proverbs 29:18: In order for you to achieve your goals in life, you have to have vision, because if not you will accomplish nothing. Where there is no vision the people parish and in order to move forward, you have to have vision.
    Let’s unpack the word Vision:
    V= Visualize, you have to be able to see the picture in your mind of what it is you want. When God plants something inside of you, start doing it. God’s desire is to move us forward. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. says do a job so well that nobody in the past, present or future can do it any better.
    I= Internalize, embrace it and accepted it as your own. Visualize yourself doing the thing you want to do. Instead of saying “you and they”, say “I and me” make it applicable to you.
    S= Strategize, you have to come up with a plan. Nothing ever just happens without a plan. Most people don’t take the time to come up with step by step plan to accomplish their goal(s). You can always wing it and think it’s going to work out. Moses had to come up with a strategy to lead the people out of Egypt. Joshua had to come up with a strategy to conquer the land. Nehemiah had to have a strategy to rebuild the wall. We “all” need a strategy! You have to have a plan.
    I= Initiate, Proverbs 12:24 says the hand of the diligent will rule. Take the initiative and do something about it, stop waiting on other people to do things. There is always going to be someone that stands around saying, somebody needs to do this, that, or the other- you do it. Nobody is going to just hand you a job, you have to apply for it. Take the lead, Noah did and built the ark. What vision(s) has God given you?
    O= Overcome, anything that is worth having, you are going to have to go through some stuff. Anything worth having is going to cost you something. In order to fly, you will have to deal with some turbulence. There will be some bumps and challenges but keep pushing forward. Don’t let your challenges make you quit. The closer you get to the thing(s) that God has for you, the bumper the road gets. Always remember that a setback is a set up for a comeback, so don’t you dare stop now. Keep pushing forward!
    N= Necessitate, when you have a burden and you are doing what you are doing out of necessity, you need to develop a case of the “I can’t help but do this.” What is the necessity that God has placed on your heart? What is that thing that you do, because it’s in you to do it?
