“Know Your Intentions” and more #Wordsof Wisdom from @TylerPerry
I needed these Words of Wisdom from Tyler Perry. I hope they motivate you too on the path towards reaching your dreams.
Of course, Tyler’s journey to success was no easy feat. He was homeless for a while, struggling financially, and his first play was a flop. Yet and still, he KNEW that creating plays and movies was ultimately what he was supposed to be doing. That was his foundation. Knowing that he was meant to do more ultimately kept him going. “What you were building had to be strong enough to support the weight of whatever you could dream,” he shared in a graduation speech. That kept him going when he was climbing the ladder to success, and still keeps him going in spite of naysayers and rough times now.

B Better, Not Bitter
Written by Brittany Shawnté
Now this isn’t me trying to preach to y’all or anything, but it was a message that stuck with me. In that moment, I realized just how much I relate to her. We all can, religious or not, because we often let the circumstances of our lives blind us. Particularly, we can let our rejection and losses tear us up, forgetting that the story doesn’t end here and that we are built to WIN. In a lot of cases, we become bitter because our lives aren’t where we think they should be.

Written by Brittany Shawnté
This teacher went above and beyond in a major act of love for one of her students and his family!

Darreld had been put on dialysis, and was really close to a new kidney, but the donor backed out at the last minute.
