Peace of Body
I have to admit, I’m sick and tired of trying to change my body. I find the same diet trends that disappear and then resurface on instagram anxiety-inducing; the flurry of workouts that pop up incessantly on facebook exhausting. I’m burnt out from the high protein breakfast ideas, as well as the “what I eat in a day” trends that seem almost identical. Even more so, I‘m frustrated that despite living in an era that is more than ever in favor of loving your body, I still struggle with accepting mine. All this being said, I still find myself taking screen-shots of brownies made from sweet potatoes that I’m never going to try.

Why I Say, "I No Longer Do Leadership Development"
Yesterday I made a statement that the Role of CEO is Dead. It may "sound" like a bold statement, but it really isn't. I then made the statement that we need to create a new type of Leader which I called the Chief Regenerative Design Office, or CRDO.

The Role Of CEO Is Dead
Leadership is extremely important. However, not all "types" of Leadership are important, good, or even necessary. In 1995, it was determined that there were 850 "academic" definitions of Leadership, and no one has attempted to count how many more have been created since that time, let alone the "non-academic" definitions.

Black Wings: A tribute to CeeCee Lyles
During Black History Month we always take time out to acknowledge the biggest and brightest Black men and women of the world’s history. Whether it’s the heroes of civil rights like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Rosa Parks or creators and innovators like George Washington Carver and Madam CJ Walker. Often times there are a lot of heroes who make big impacts that go rather unnoticed to the general public. Sometimes such individuals are responsible for moments and actions that do not warrant a lot of attention from the general public, other times there are people who are a part of big moments in time, but were overshadowed by the moment itself. One such person is CeeCee Lyles, she was one of the heroic flight attendants aboard United Airlines flight 93 during the September 11th attack.

I See Your Smiles
It never hurts to smile. It makes us feel good inside even when we’re hurting, reminds us not to take life too seriously. And when we give ourselves and others the love of smiles, it multiplies in people’s hearts. You never know whether you might be drastically picking up someone’s day by giving them a little ray of sunshine. We each have an inner light that is so important to not keep hidden, or as the religious saying goes, “don’t hide it under a bushel basket.” And yet, sometimes we need to keep some emotions contained. Inner anger can hurt someone else or ourselves, and sometimes we as human beings aren’t even fully aware of how much this feeling poisons ourselves. But there is someone watching who sees every time you smile. It’s such a small gesture, but small things add up to long-term results, mindsets or leanings toward certain feelings that become cyclical. This is as true for the positive as it is for the negative. So which are you going to choose?
