“LEADERSHIP: HAS PRIDE OVERSHADOWED THE AUTHENTICITY OF BEING ACQUIESCED?” PART TWO.

There are so many people that want to occupy the very seats of authority they aren’t qualified for.   

Those same people are self motivated and driven by accolades and acknowledgments. They need the praise and noteriety to feed their insecure needs which fuels their faux sense of power and relentless ambition. I can point them out in any room, long story short.. they bore me. 

Seems harsh but when it’s all said and done the mark of a true leader is one that doesn’t even know that they can lead. Most great leaders don’t even want the responsibility and they shy away from the spotlight every single time. They are keenly aware of who they are but often times are so uncomfortable within themselves that they feel almost inadequate when sharing wisdom. Their immense need for knowledge keeps them hungry and humble making their motives pure when dealing others. 

Naivety. There’s something miraculous about a naive person. Most will tell you that they are inexperienced but they are wrong. A naive person is willing to wander aimlessly within themselves throughout any circumstance.. that keeps them in an objective view allowing a curiosity that fuels the imagination and with that you can develop critical thinking, problem solving and emotional intelligence. 

Are you willing to correct your thinking?

Are you willing to have your thinking corrected? 

HOW TO IDENTIFY AUTHENTIC LEADERS

  1. Someone who possesses a healthy imagination and understands/demonstrates free will. 
  2. Someone who understands the importance of emotional and logical intelligence 
  3. A self motivated individual who is affirmed and rooted in love. Someone who understands the person first then delegates the responsibilities. 

HOW TO IDENTIFY INAUTHENTIC LEADERS

  1. Someone who uses fear to manipulate others. A person that is overly emotional and easily offended.
  2. No initiative or daily accountability for themselves or others.
  3. Lacks presence and self identity. A persons who’s demeanor is incapable of commanding respect with little to no effort. 
Now having read all of that, what do you think?

For me, I’ve seen enough of an evolutionary decline in society that it’s almost disheartening. Todays generation is breeding more selfish people than selfless and it’s because we’ve gotten so smart and advanced that we have forgotten the beauty of community and fellowship. A self sustaining person has no need for anyone else and with the technological advances and applications.. You’d be lucky if you even have to leave your house! 

The roles slowly diminishing, so you have to start doing your part to maintain the natural order of things and it starts with simply loving yourself enough to love others. Seems simple enough? Right?

Well I guess that it would depend on how capable you are of loving yourself and if you are prone to denying yourself due to harsh self judgement..

You see what I mean? 

You have to keep asking yourself the necessary questions needed because it’s only then that the conversations will develop into a deeper understanding of the true currency between two individuals and that’s love, respect and honor. 

Be patient enough to identify true leadership and that’ll be half the battle. Once you’ve done so be fully trusting of their value so that you can expand in your consciousness to unlearn what is necessary. 

After reading this, would you consider yourself a leader? 

If so, in what ways?

If not, where can you improve?

“THE IDEOLOGY OF THE LATE BLOOMER: SOCIAL CONSTRUCT, FABRICATION, OR DIVERSION”?

Webster defines the late bloomer as someone who becomes successful, attractive, etc. at a later time in life than other people.  Scientifically it’s defined as a child who goes through puberty later than their peers. It is also known as constitutional delayed puberty, and it’s the most common cause of late maturity.  So, why this topic?  A number of reasons but I guess the main one would be a question that I proposed about myself to myself.. (writers, am I right?)  Do late bloomers actually exist or are there just people who were born to be set apart and or different.. allowing them to break free from and surpass the matrix? Biologically, yes. I’m what would be constituted as a late bloomer because I promise you I didn’t get real boobs until I was 24 and then my body changed yet again at 28…introducing my child bearing hips.. Anywho, I’m the second oldest of my moms 4 children and somehow everyone always assumes that my younger siblings are older than me. So, in that...

“222 : TRAILBLAZING UNKNOWN PATHS OF SELF DISCOVERY VIA THE HUMILITY OF CHANGE”

I don’t think highly of myself. I never have and I really think that that confuses people. I’ve been told that I’m mysterious and with every change it appears that I hide only to reemerge brand new.  It would seem as though that I live my life as if there was some truth to be revealed when in all actuality I just live. When my life calls for a transition I’m not concerned about involving anyone as I begin the lengthy and all consuming process of starting over. Instead I have learned to rely on God which typically means isolation.  Webster defines change as the following; To make different in some particular: Alter To make radically different: Transform To give a different position, course, or direction to To replace with another to make a shift from one to another - Switch To exchange for an equivalent sum of money To undergo a modification of To put fresh clothes or covering on The definitions were even broken down into transitive and intransitive verbs. So the word change is...

“A CONVERSATION WITH LOTS WIFE: WHEN DOES GRIEF ACTUALLY BEGIN” PART TWO To Maria Eva Castro, I see you baby girl. God has beautiful things in store for you. Keep moving forward. This post is for you.

There was a time when I couldn’t be trusted with disappointment. There was a time when I couldn’t see past my pain. Anger fueled my spirit allowing me to mismanage it all. It stole from me, took everything from me.. The most important thing being time.. How many times will I look back? How many times can I replay the same situation in my head when I know that the choices that I make affect too many people?! Can you hold me down without holding me back? Can you really and truly hold me down without holding me back? Hold me but please don’t hold me down only to suffocate me! Please?! Unanswered prayers, pain and heartbreak have led too many people down traumatic paths because they keep looking back to dwell in their own turmoil. Everyday they are choosing to be bound by their own “demons” continuously allowing their unhealed pain to invite darkness into their life prone heavy hearts. No more pain escape attempts No more pain escape attempts No more pain escape attempts So, how will we st...
