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 fail at first.  This will make you work ten times harder to reach your goals and better yet analyze your misstep to avoid the same mistakes.  There will be people who will look up to you and there will be people who will look down on you.   Life is full of surprises, but if you have a dream to fulfill make it your goal to turn your perception into reality.

Single Fathers should get more exposure By Mel

Father! - To God himself we cannot give a holier name by William Wordsworth is such a powerful quote.   I would like to say single and non-residential fathers are portrayed in the media as irresponsible and non-supportive to their kids.   Well, I’m here to share with you through some research that it is not entirely true.   Even though single and non-residential fathers as a whole are an understudied group there’s still some truth that single and supportive non-residential fathers do exist.   Some fathers are working 2 part-time jobs and are unable to get government assistance.   The media rarely report positive fathers working 7 days a week with no days off, struggling paycheck to paycheck.    For myself as a non-residential father, I still support my daughter in every aspect, however the role of a father is never recognize or acknowledge for my continuous involvement.   ·          A Non-resident...

No Love in the Club The 90/10 Rule By Vaughn James

If you’re in your mid 30’s or just turned 40, you shouldn’t be in the club every weekend. Guys, you seriously don’t want to be the sleazy old man in the club. And ladies, you shouldn’t be out getting your drink on, leaving your fourteen year old teenager to watch your younger kids. The fact is, even when we were all young, the chances that men and women could find a meaning full relationship in a club was next to zero, but closer to 5%. “Wait a minute”, you may ask, “how can that be quantified?” I’ll explain. Simply, when we go out to the clubs, 90% of the men are trying to get with 10% of the women and 90% of the women are trying to get with 10% of the men. So, the likelihood that there will be any kind of real hookup is 5%, half of 10%. Besides, the club is a terrible place to meet someone. They are overly hyped by the radio station and promoters, who make it seem like your life will end if you don’t go to their club Friday and Saturday nights. Additionally, the mixed alco...
