With Great Power, Comes Great Responsibility By Mel

 
Being a father who is involved in my daughter’s life is extremely important.  However both parents have to be there to raise their child in what is known as the “Electronic Age.”  Years ago when it was less technology our minds were more “typographic” meaning we read more books.  Words can foster the analytic management of knowledge compare to today’s electronic mind using tablets to scroll down to check their latest news feed on their Facebook page.  Even in the poorest ghetto the minimum standard electronic device in their home the “TV,” is a fast-paced and open admission to everything with no cognitive, physical, economic or imaginative restraints.  Sadly this reduces the traditional distance between children and adults.  Strong parents are now competing with Little Trey’s favorite TV show “Power,” which provides an authentic feel to the environment he is so used to; a show that also provides Little Trey an alternative view on how he should behave and socialize with others.  To make things even worse, parents are now facing media sexual contents.  Sure they have parental guidance on their Direct TV/Comcast remote control but that is not enough with the marketplace so overloaded with this sort of crap on any electronic device you can think of.  For instance Miley Cyrus formally known as “Hannah Montana” may perform a twerk or two in a very sexual way which may encourage children to behave in that same manner because they look up to her.  According to a source of information about sex (1998) 30% was learn from TV versus 7% from parents, 3% was from formal sex education in school.  This is the modern day Matrix in which our children are so accustom to. The idea of childhood disappears and evolves towards adulthood very quickly if we as parents don’t step in.  Does not matter if you are divorce, separate or together, it is critical to have both parents on the same page which is the best way to overcome these obstacles.

Don't Thirst Your Way Into The Rejected Pile By Mel

Men, you have the power to change.  Your standard of living and philosophical mindset based on thirsty behavior is not setting a good example.  Classy women will throw you automatically into the rejected pile if they sense this way of thinking.  What concerns me the most is how brothers market themselves onto the dating scene and the assumption they make when they speak to a beautiful woman.  Money flashers believe it is a walk in the park that they can get any woman they want.  Most thirsty men try to impress women with their financial assets.  They believe this technique will force a woman to throw herself at their feet. When fantasy becomes reality or they get rejected they proclaim that a woman is stuck up which is far from the truth.  To be honest, no sophisticated female wants to be whistle, bark at or grab in an awkward way from a stranger and I do not blame them.  I have a daughter, and I expect men to treat my little princess as a human being when she gets older, not an o

Date Smarter, not Harder By: Mel

Way too many guys pay attention to women based on THEIR attraction level. They will waste their time and hard earned money on a woman who is not attracted to them at all. It's always a better experience to go out with someone who's just as excited and enthusiastic to be with you compared to someone who you have to warm up. You should want to spend time with women who appreciate and value your time. Always pay attention to her action, not what she says. Date smarter, not harder.

BE who you ARE, not who the World wants you to BE By Mel

  Life is full surprises.   When you’re out there in the field you get a sense that all eyes are on you.   That oil to your engine is confidence .   Every ounce in your body engages you to stay well groomed, sell your image, build your vocabulary and practice on your art or goals in life.   That’s a very attractive trait to have and I will tell you why.   The love you put inside yourself shines externally which creates this invisible aura.   It creates offensive projections defined as the way you carry yourself or how you interact with people combine with defensive measures such as keeping your guard up and not allowing people to take advantage of you.   We all have our moments when we navigate in unfamiliar territory.   For example, giving your time and effort to someone who shortchanged you or getting laid off from a promising career just because you challenged the status quo.   Sometimes you feel betrayed but let me share something with you.   To succeed in life you must fa
