Today’s dose of “Vitamin D” is dedicated to taking it all off! Yup, I mean every word…it’s time to get naked. It’s time to wipe the shame off your face, strip yourself of off all of your guards and walk with your arms wide open. It’s easy to pretend to be perfect, but how about just being real. Being you.

So what’s your excuse? You doubt your own strength to overcome what’s present in your life, so you hide. Rather than knowing your faults and what you need to overcome, you hide behind them and drown. Why is that? Not realizing that is your “shame” that has you imprisoned in the first place. I didn’t doubt my intellect when I first got rejected from Howard University. I fought for it. I reversed their decision, received a scholarship and hosted my graduation. I’m not ashamed to admit that. Perhaps that’s what makes the rose so special that grew from the concrete. Despite its debilitating circumstances, it was still able to grow towards the light.

Regardless of the situation that is being faced your way. It is important to understand that you can either have a breakdown or a breakthrough. You may not be able to physically see it, but you can indeed envision it. Think of a beautifully wrapped box on a special occasion. It’s amazing to look at, but the true gift is inside. Just like the hit R&B crooner Labrinth, I’d like to know if I could see “Beneath Your Beautiful?”

Or better yet…can you?

That’s it for your dose of “Vitamin D”. Want more of Dawn Dai? Be sure to follow Dawn on all social media @DawnDaiSpeaks. Until next time, always remember, “You are your greatest asset!”

Today’s dose of “Vitamin D” is dedicated to your well-being. When was the last time you faced a challenge? How did it make you feel? Scared? Lost? Upset? Doubtful? I don’t know about you, but I face challenges every single day. Just look around, there are challenges that you must overcome each day of your life. Sometimes they come in the form of loved ones, decisions, job opportunities, relationships and sometimes they reside right there inside of you. You must keep in mind that challenges aren’t meant to “take you out” and are certainly not meant to “break you.” So, don’t allow them to. Challenges are meant to help you grow, succeed and believe. So how do you overcome a challenge?

Find someone or something to believe in, even if that someone is…YOU! Everything in life is working for your greater good. It doesn’t mean it will always feel good, but it is definitely working for the betterment of you. It’s not about the challenge that faces you, but how you face the challenge. Take note from Compton rapper, Kendrick Lamar in his hit single, “Alright” that everyday is an upward battle so acknowledge the fact that “ We been hurt, been down before. When our pride was low, looking at the world like ‘Where do we go?’” and declare “Alls my life I had to fight…but if God got us, then we gon’ be alright!”

It’s not over until it’s alright and it’s not alright until it’s over.

“Do you hear me? Do you feel me? We gon’ be alright!”

That’s it for your dose of “Vitamin D”. Want more of Dawn Dai? Be sure to follow Dawn on all social media @DawnDaiSpeaks. Until next time, always remember, “You are your greatest asset!”
