Be a Leader, Not a Boss. AI-Generated.
Be a leader, not a boss. What do I mean by this? Well, let me explain something. A boss acts like they know everything and refuses to admit being wrong when a leader openly admits to their mistakes. A boss tells people what to do when a leader shows their employees how to do things. A boss criticizes their employees when a leader gives advice. A boss talks too fast and gives orders when a leader gives direction. A boss demands respect when they haven’t earned it when a leader earns respect and deserves it. A boss says “I” when a leader says “WE.” A boss blames others when a leader works together with their employees. A boss commands their employees when a leader asks their employees.

taught me a child
One day I was struck by a kind of depression, I did not know the real reason behind it, as I live, thank God, in the midst of a middle-class family and work in what can be described as good conditions. However, I began to feel sadness, anxiety, and tension lately. I no longer handled things well, which made many people slightly annoyed with me. I searched a lot for solutions to get me out of this state, and I found several solutions and pieces of advice... Among them was talking to a close person, filling the void. Indeed, I thought about filling my void with something beneficial. I thought about visiting family and strengthening family ties, as they prolong life and increase blessings. Indeed, at the end of the week, I paid a surprise morning visit to a member of my family; he was happy. He lives in the same city but in another simple, popular neighborhood. The last time I saw him was 9 years ago, before he got married. He is now married and a father of a girl about seven years old and a little boy not yet five years old. The family welcomed me very much. Despite their simplicity, I felt very comfortable with them. I found generosity, humility, and warmth in their reception. The wife prepared breakfast and placed the tray on the mat. Then she went to call her daughter. As for the little boy, he was sitting next to his father, and what caught my attention a lot was the child's joy. He started spinning around the tray happily and actively, repeating incessantly the phrase "Little things create happiness at home". I didn't know where he got this phrase from, but he kept repeating it innocently and happily. I said to myself, perhaps he always does this, as he is a child, and children naturally love food.

Increasing Black Female Representation on Industry Red Carpets
Hi everyone, Thank you for tuning into my article. I have had the honor of gracing numerous industry red carpets, interviewing some of the most legendary Oscar, Grammy, Tony, and Emmy winners. I've spoken with some of the most beloved actors, singers, directors, and writers, and covered press events for major networks. However, during these events, I rarely see women who look like me in the room or even on Zoom. I am immensely thankful for the opportunity to be a journalist. With a degree in media, my journey began in elementary school, reporting on school news. I then joined a theater and TV production company where we produced live TV weekly from our public access cable station. After obtaining my media degree, I went on to write and produce short films on pressing social issues such as bullying, suicide prevention, domestic violence, and HIV awareness. My hard work has been recognized, and I am an award-winning writer and journalist. Throughout my career, I have put in the work, sacrificed, and accomplished a lot while being a mother. Yet, I am acutely aware that many people who look like me are not afforded these same opportunities. This lack of representation is a significant issue that needs to be addressed. I want to call for more Black women to have the chance to obtain the opportunities I am blessed to have.

The problem with trying to set up boundaries
Lately, I have hit my breaking point. I realize how much that I take from everyone in my life. Living with my family has really forced me to look at my life, at everything that I have to deal with. I think that it is because of everything I am putting up with that forced me to see what I put up with. Always being the 'good child' growing up, it has been put into me that I need to accept it. Don't say anything to ruffle feathers, and take whatever treatment that people give me. It was put into me that I should never say anything negative or against someone. So that I don't upset anyone, so that everyone thinks that everything is fine. I also have been through so much that as long as don't say anything, then I can't be hurt, I can't be put down, I can't be made fun of. So I now see that I have been putting up with whatever people do to me for a long time. Always accepting it.

The Heart + Head in Alignment
The first part of my life, I was wrought with confusion and very good at asking the wrong questions. Amidst my existential crisis, six years ago, I wrote a post based on books I had read: “Should you follow your head or your heart?”

Change Hopeless Negativity to an Optimistic Success Mindset
One of the reasons that people develop a sense of hopeless negativity is because they view their life goals, their relationships, their dreams and their needs in light of what should have been instead of what is.
