I don't need your permission to be great!

Updated: Jan 19, 2020

Greetings, Good Monday Morning!


I hope that you had a wonderful weekend, and that you're off to an amazing start! I certainly did, and I'm fired up to grind it out for more opportunities to come. Today, I have a brief message about your greatness.


God is so good! I originally began writing this blog post on November 17, 2019, but I "put it down" because, I didn't feel it was ready for me to post. When I initially began writing it, I felt it was missing the depth of impact for the message that I wanted to convey. In other words, I needed to live more and wait for God to give me the message. I hadn't quite experienced what I needed to experience yet, and to be able to tie it to what I've already experienced to write this piece. However, grace be unto God because, as I was getting ready for work on the morning of Thursday, 1/9/2020, I had an epiphany. I was listening to the replay of Heather B Live Show on Channel 126, SiriusXM Urban View, as I always do when getting ready for work, when the message came to me. Sidebar, I highly recommend checking out her show. Ok, back to the story, when Heather B started the show, she began speaking about "walking in your greatness", and I thought to myself, "I've written about this topic before. Maybe I need to revise it from another angle." Just when I had that thought, a caller mentioned about not needing anyone else to be great. In other words, you have to do what you have to do to ensure that you constantly aspire for greatness. That's when I thought about this post. Sometimes we don't necessarily have to go through everything to be able to have impactful discussion. Also, I may not have the type of experiences that speaks to the hearts of others to the point it inspires them to achieve greatness. With that said, hearing other people speak about their journey to greatness, keeps me inspired to aspire to greatness. When I think about my own journey, I know that I don't need anyone's permission to be great because, I am what I already believe that I am and that is GREAT! I am great therefore, I feel, attract, and emit greatness! It's an energy just like anything else we think and feel. So why do many people live their lives thinking and feeling like they need the approval and permission of others to walk in their greatness? I'm here to tell you or remind you, if you've forgotten, that you don't! Do not wait to go after your dreams. For instance, if you want to be a singer, but you have to work a full-time job doing something else while you pursue what you're really passionate about in life, then do it! Do it because, you achieve greatness when have the desire to be great! You are great! Live and step with authority so that you walk in your greatness. Speak greatness and positivity over your life and goals.


In closing, I always talk about, and promote my brand "M.A.I." the "A" means aspire to greatness. This post actually affirms the message of my brand, and my own journey. I am grateful for God allowing me to hear the radio show because, it brought the message of M.A.I. home for me. If we are not "M.A.I." everything, what are we here for?


Peace, Blessings and Happy #MondayMotivation!
