"I'm trying to build something with you."
"Let's work on this project together."
"I'm tired. I'll post on Aintbritfunny next week. "
Hey ya'll! Happy April! It's the 4th month of 2018 and I know that many of us set goals for ourselves in all areas of our lives. Maybe it was a gym goal, career goal, or even a relationship goal. Shoot, maybe it was all of them. It doesn't matter. What matters is your consistency and persistence to reach them.
And I'm gonna go even further and say... even if it's not something you call a "goal", if you say you're going to do something, do it. Nobody likes a wishy washy, hot and cold, "uhhh let me get back to you" all the damn time, person.
If y'all thought this was going to be a "hope all is well with you" post, then y'all don't know me very well. Come on in and have a seat. I won't keep you very long today, I'm hungry and gotta make lunch soon. Let's get straight to the point.
I once heard someone say, "If you're having a hard time choosing between me and another person... choose the other person." I agree with that on some levels. Indecisiveness can lead to inconsistency. And to quote my #Blackmamalations tee "Close my doors, I ain't tryna heat up the neighborhood" meaning, you're either in or out, but you not gone keep running back and forth. Stop trying to create a revolving door on folks lives. It's not cute.
Now, on the other hand, if you're a director and you're having a hard time choosing between me and another person for a role. Choose me. I want to be chose.
I've seen folks ruin great networking opportunities because they just can't seem to follow through. Or, they just want to get by doing the bare minimum. And let me tell you, it's kind of hard to put your name on something that you know might be raggedy.
Look, when the year started, I was on fire. I had everything laid out that I wanted to do for myself. I had a post for y'all every week, I was always looking and going for auditions and I even opened an online store for folks to purchase shirts that I made. In that time I ran across some difficulties with my site, some exhausting weeks that caused me not to write, lots of folks telling me "no" and an overwhelming amount of self doubt that caused me to give only 50% of my energy in which I was only doing myself a disservice.
The moral of the story is, we all fall short, but be consistent in all that you do. If not, don't be upset or surprised when folks don't want to rock with you or take you seriously.
A very wise woman once said "You either gone piss or get off the pot!"
I'll leave y'all with that.
