The luxury of bossing up....
Bosssing up can be things on so many levels. Bossing up can be something as small as paying off a debt or as big as buying a house. Bossing up is excelling to another level in your life. Bossing up is taking control of what you can. Bossing up is something positive. Bossing up is something that makes you feel good. Bossing up is a luxury to yourself and your endeavors. Bossing up on so many levels is just that , “Bossin’ Up.” I like the saying because it’s motivational and wants you to boss up. It’s like it’s telling you to do better. And that you can do better. There are other ways to boss up as well. The only way is up. You have to look at the saying in a positive way. At first I looked at it in a negative way because when I seen and heard bossin’ up I thought I don’t want to be a boss. Lol bosses are mean haha 😆. But no seriously once I start seeing peoples post and label bossin’ up on a picture it started to give me positive vibes and feelings. I started to look at in a positive way and it’s been up from there. So if something doesn’t make sense at first keep in mind that later it will. Xoxo 💋
Ways to boss up;
Pay off debt
Buy a house
Finish school
Get a job
Graduate
Etc.
The goal when it comes to “Bossing Up”is , it’s really up to you and how you navigate in your own life. The goal is to move forward and exceed upwards. Listed above are ways people can boss up. As long as it’s elevating and positive it’s technically bossing up. Bossing up can be simple, don’t make it difficult. I’m working towards bossing up in small ways first. You can boss up on whatever level you are currently on. The saying bossing up does not necessarily mean becoming a boss. It means eliminating anything that can get in your way of your personal goals or goals in general. If you don’t have at 3 goals for the year whether big or small you can jot them down when you have time. ✨🤓
Bossing up is not hard when you don’t compare yourself to others and their accomplishments. Yes! That’s another way to put it too. The more accomplishments you achieve the more bossing up you are doing. Which is a good thing, so never compare yourself to others bossing up. Let them other people bossing up be motivation for you to want to do the same. There is luxury in bossing up. The luxury in my bossing up is being able to do what I please at whatever time I want in my own place. The luxury of being able to enjoy my space and peace has been a blessing in disguise. The luxury of waking up to the sound of nothing. Except for my son Darius lol 💙.
I’ll be happy when my son comes back home to mommy and daddy. We came a long way and did a lot to get a place for our son. My son is my everything. I know that sounds so cliche but it’s true. At a point in time, I felt like I had nothing to live for. I kept doing the same things over and over and it was becoming boring. I was getting mentally exhausted. I wanted to have kids and live the family life. I had my son at 27yrs of age. I just turned 28 almost a month ago in March , 🥳 . But anyways yup. I miss my son and I can’t believe he has been away from me for almost 5 months. 🥲. I’m missing some of his first moments because someone wants to break up my family. I’m happy and so is my home. I’m staying positive and hoping for the best.
How have I been bossing up? I’ve been eliminating my wants and focusing on my needs. My goal when it comes to bossing up is to focus more. I want to get through my goals I set a few goals each year that are big and little monthly small goals. Like I said before actually achieving and accomplishing goals makes me feel good inside and I feel happy as well when something gets done.
This is an example of how I choose to boss up! I choose to write and write some more. I also like to stay organized and keep my day’s halfway full. I like to keep a day free which is normally my off day. I did this chart myself all you need is paper and pen. =)
Most people use their phones to boss up as well. Like right now it’s so much to write and talk about in today’s world. My main things are family, love, education, and mental health.
Coming across vocal has been another way I chose to boss up. I choose to write about my life and the things on my mind. My mental health is very important to me so I want to boss up in that area as much as possible.
I moved into my own apartment right before I had my son. The luxury of staying focused and goal oriented is seeing the end results. I worked two jobs and had a side hustle (balanced in beauty ) which is becoming more like a brand. I haven’t thought through all the details but I do know I want my own business selling my items and products that I make. To me that is one of my bigger goals and huge boss ups.
Bossing up is a luxury in itself. Xoxo 💋

Vocal & my relationship to publishing traditionally
Ever since my small writing beginnings, when I started writing on Vocal in February 2021, I had been in a truly terrible slump & funk when it came to my writing. I had so many unfinished projects, ideas, half finished manuscripts and first chapters that were going nowhere.

Africa's Deadliest Predators: Masters of Stealth, Speed, and Deception in the Serengeti Grasslands.
Africa's most dangerous predators have developed deadly hunting skills. Predators utilize a variety of tactics, such as stealth, frontal attacks, and swarming in groups. The continent's environment has influenced predators with heightened senses, agility, and intelligence. The cheetah is known for its speed and hunting abilities. The cheetah's physical attributes for high-speed hunting consist of a light body, aerodynamic characteristics, and specialized claws for grip. The cheetah's hunting approach involves chasing prey at remarkable speeds, depending on its strong heart, flexible spine, and unique muscle structure. Lions strategically hunt zebras through coordinated efforts. The lions collaborate to corner and surprise the zebras, putting them in a vulnerable position. The Nile crocodile, a feared reptile, is well-suited to its surroundings and uses explosive speed to catch its prey. Crocodiles possess invisibility and precision hunting techniques. Crocodiles have adapted for stealthy water hunting and can slow their heart rate for extended periods underwater. African fishing spiders hunt fish with accuracy and drag them back to consume on land. Spiders inject venom and digestive enzymes to dissolve the insides of their prey, capturing fish nearly five times their weight. Fish eagles, with exceptional eyesight and sharp talons, hunt from treetops with deadly accuracy, capable of crushing prey. Leopards are skilled ambush and stalking predators in Africa. Leopards have specialized senses and anatomy for stealthy hunting. Their coloration and hearing make them highly efficient predators. The vine snake employs lethal hunting techniques and the harsh realities of the Namib Desert. The vine snake disguises itself as a branch and strikes prey with deadly hemotoxic venom. The Namib Desert, the world's oldest, is home to animals uniquely adapted to survive extreme conditions. Rock scorpions have hunting strategies and adaptations. Rock scorpions have weak neurotoxic venom but compensate with powerful pincers for crushing prey. Vultures play a crucial role in maintaining the balance of Africa's ecosystems. By scavenging leftover carcasses, they prevent the spread of diseases and contribute to the overall health of the savanna ecosystem. The Aguils Bank, characterized by a clash of temperatures, provides an ideal environment for sardine spawning. In response, sardines form a bait ball defense against predators. Dolphins, despite the vastness of the ocean, exhibit remarkable teamwork by working together in pods to locate and capture fish using sonar. During the Sardine run, they employ a strategic approach to herd and catch fish. However, they face threats from sharks and garnets during their hunting endeavors. Sharks disrupt the Dolphins' hunting process, inducing chaos to catch fish, while garnets launch aerial attacks on the bait ball. Despite the dangers, garnets exhibit precise diving skills to snatch prey, albeit facing the risk of head-on collisions. Africa's predators demonstrate their deadly hunting skills, as agile sharks and dolphins can swiftly diminish massive bait balls to a mere handful of fish within a few hours. When these predators unite and attack as a group, they showcase the true devastating efficiency of Africa's deadliest. Lions are formidable predators known for their unique hunting techniques and teamwork. Despite their strength and weaponry, lions often face failure in their hunts, with only three out of ten attempts resulting in a successful kill. While male lions, weighing as much as a motorcycle, possess immense power, they typically leave the hunting responsibilities to the lionesses. These lionesses are skilled at taking down challenging targets such as large giraffes. In the wild, lions strategically risk their lives to attack giraffes to obtain sustenance. This makes them lethal hunters and a part of Africa's most dangerous predators. Underwater, there are other predators like the stonefish that employ deception and deadly toxins for hunting. The common octopus, on the other hand, possesses remarkable camouflage abilities. It can rapidly change its shape, texture, and size to blend seamlessly into its surroundings, even mimicking the texture of the reef below. The octopus relies on its super sensory suckers to gather information about its environment and utilizes its toxic snapping beak as a deadly tool for both hunting and defense. In South African waters, Cape fur seals are known as deadly predators of octopuses. These seals possess exceptional low-light vision, enabling them to spot the camouflaged creatures in black and white. Octopuses, in an attempt to defend themselves, cling to rocks using their powerful suckers. However, the strength of the seals usually overpowers them. Moving on to the ocean, great white sharks are expert predators of seals. With up to 300 teeth that continuously replace, these sharks can easily tear limbs off their prey. Mother seals face deadly shark ambushes as they race back home to feed their pups. In Africa, the puff adder is considered the deadliest hunter. Its slug-shaped body and lightning-fast strikes make it a notorious and lethal predator. The venom of the puff adder is potent enough to kill five grown men, and its specialized muscles enable it to strike with incredible speed. Lastly, the Namaka chameleon showcases its survival skills in the harsh Namib Desert. It adapts to its environment by changing the color of its skin for temperature control. The chameleon also faces various feeding tactics and challenges to survive. Similarly, scorpions are also deadly hunters in Africa, but chameleons utilize their camouflage abilities and deadly tongues to catch their prey.
