My old foundation was built on wanting to become an NFL player, rapper, millionaire lottery winner. Let’s be real, although there are some that succeed at these particular endeavors while the percentile of people achieving these feats are slim to none, and once we fail or don’t achieve them, we get discouraged and tend to give up. I can’t tell you how many times I thought I was going to hit the Powerball or win millions from a scratch off. I’ve prayed over my numbers and used my lucky coin to scratch off my lottery ticket, well I can tell you I’m still not rich. Richness was my motivation like so many that grew up without and struggling through life, but I’m grateful and blessed that I didn’t obtain those things simply because richness can be lost. People go broke after winning the lottery, and end up in bigger debt and hardships. I now value wealth, and that’s different, you can’t lose wealth because it’s who you are. Although my account is sometimes negative, I’m constantly building my wealth by investing in me so that when I obtain this I will pass it on for generations to come. What is wealth people may ask? Or some may even equate wealth with a monetary value, and although it does contribute to it, to me wealth is self-value and personal health. By becoming healthier, eating right and taking care of my body, my mental diet changed, my appetite for social media decreased, and I was on a diet of distractions. My outlook instantly changed, I became more positive in my thoughts, actions, and interactions. People gravitated to me because I made them feel good about life. If you’re not physically and mentally healthy, how do you plan on dealing with the pressure success brings? I read more books, and my thirst for insight increased tremendously, I was reading 2-3 books at a time, along with listening to audio books. My knowledge of life grew as I adopted the habits and lifestyle of some very successful people. By doing all of these things, it gave me the outlook to write this book. I took courses that added to my value like, becoming a certified life purpose coach, marketing and branding, and becoming a better Leader. All of them boosted me into another class in life. I’m no longer a wisher, wishing things to go my way, hoping for a break, I became a doer, I made things happen for me, I put together a plan and put action behind it. My blueprint was a step by step layout to my success. I thanked God every morning for my journey, my failure, my losses, and defeats. I realized that it’s the dark places in life that spark the most growth. I’m grateful for everything so far, and I’ve gained a lot along the way. God gave me reassurance that I’m doing things the right way, I’m on my road to success, and it wasn’t
