Many will recognize this song from Teenwolf a movie where Michael J. Fox’s learns to channel his anger for good and as a result he wins in the end. How many times along your spiritual journey have you been moved to anger only recognizing that getting angry is like wrestling a pig in the mud you both get dirty but the pig enjoys it. If you can manage your anger and realize that taking the high road and keeping calm in the face of adversity you will win in the end. As I have experienced a spiritual awakening I have found that it is better to stay calm and take action to solve a challenge than it is to get angry and walk away as when you do the later the issue still persists. Last night at The Don’t Get Spooked By Cancer Night at Hooters I encountered a situation where one of the attendees got mad and left as I asked them not to put up The Donald Trump Mannequin as I wanted to make sure that no one would be offended as our society has become ultra sensitive and I did not want any negativity cast toward the charity. I was a bit disappointed by this gentleman’s actions as I thought my request was reasonable and I asked in a polite fashion. On the other end of the spectrum one gentleman donated $30 for chance drawing tickets and when he won The Eli Manning Replica Superbowl Ring gave a $20 donation, He then won the gift basket and gave another $20 donation. Another patron gladly donated $20 for tickets and won some prizes in the chance drawing. In the end the charity won as $165 was raised through donations and the chance drawing. Hooters is sending their donation. The lesson I learned was do not let one negative action take away from all the positives and to focus of the positive because when you focus on the positive you win in the end. The best part was when I arrived home there was a signed football from Larry Little sent to me by The NFL to use in the chance drawing at The Points For The Cure Football Edition Party on Sunday November 4 at Uncle Al’s Sports Cafe in Sunrise. As I prepared for bed last night I realized that if you continue to take action and walk in your truth you will win in the end.
If you are going to win in the end and enhance your personal, professional, and spiritual life you must be a warrior and commit to never giving up. Along your journey you will face obstacles and you may want to forget everything and run. At those times rest and take a breath and then decide that you will face everything and rise and you will win in the end. As a warrior you will need to detach from outcomes and simply go with the flow of the universe by letting go and letting GOD. I have found that since my spiritual awakening that when I detach from expectations and simply accept things as they unfold I attract more peace, love, joy, and prosperity into my life. In the past I would worry about who didn’t attend an event instead of being grateful for those who did attend now I concentrate on those who have attended and am grateful for there presence. I have come to use the serenity prayer to keep me centered, focused, and grounded so that I win in the end.
You Have The Power To Make A Difference
I can not change how someone reacts to me but I can control how I react to their reaction. In the past I would get upset and angry when someone would get angry at me now I simply remain calm and realize that it is more about them and their feelings than it is about me. I have come to understand that I am not going to resonate with everyone but those that I do resonate with will be attracted to me and help me with my effort to be of service and value to others. The key to winning in the end is to take all your spiritual teachings and apply them so that you create a life filled with bliss and abundance. Many times it is as simple as getting back to the basics so you can win in the end.
Lessons To Help You Win In The End
One of the greatest gifts that my mother gave me prior to her being called home to GOD was Don Miguel Ruiz’s Book The Four Agreements. When times get tough I pull it out and remind myself of these four agreements and as a result I win in the end. May you continue to grow as you progress on your spiritual journey. Namaste!!!
As I left Skyline Chili On October 17 after no one showed up to take advantage of the opportunity to learn how to strengthen their brand and increase their revenue I was a bit down and wondered what more do I have to do to get people to attend events that I host. This feeling continued on October 22 after I hosted a Give Back Night at Bru’s Room located in The Sunrise West Plaza. In the last few months I have worked really hard to host events and had poor turn outs that made me want to simply quit my volunteer work with The American Cancer Society Relay For Life Of Sunrise and to stop offering workshops as I had this reoccurring thought that perhaps I am not the person people want to follow. Then on Wednesday 10/24 I was the announcer for The Cardinal Gibbons Chiefs JV Football Game and after the game I had so many parents come up to me to tell me how great I did that I realized it was time to get up. I arrived home and I really wished my DAD was still alive so I could share with him the highlights of the game and that I felt a sense of appreciation. At that moment I sat in prayer and the overwhelming message I received was that it was time to get up and move forward on my spiritual journey and continue to be of service and value to others.
As I sat down to write this blog entry I realized it was time to get up off of that thing that was interfering with my personal, professional, and spiritual growth. That thing was focusing on the negative instead of looking at the positive. As I thought more and more about how I felt knocked down I realized I was knocked down and not out and if i could look up I could get up. It was in this moment that I began to understand that it is important to take the good with the bad and then release the bad while learning from it and continue on the path to do more good. It took much introspection and reflection to work from feeling sorry for myself and defeated to get back to feeling good about all I was doing and being victorious.
Hope Prevails!!!
On of the things that helped me to get back up was looking at this photo. It is of Lacey Jerome who is 4 years old and a cancer survivor. She has had 4 brain surgeries and 10 other surgeries resulting from the complications from cancer. She is now cancer free and she threw out the first pitch at The Strike Out Cancer Day with The Sunrise Sharks Travel Baseball Team. Being the announcer for that moment is a reminder that I have had more positive things happen on my journey than negative and to focus on the joy that I have been part of. One of the Life Coaches that I know, Shantel Springer taught me a few years ago to always get up and to be grateful for those who show up to support your endeavors and to understand that the people that are meant to be there will be there. In coming to understand that as an action taker there will be some downs but there will be many ups has helped me to get up after feeling down.
As I was seeking material to encourage the readers of this blog to get up the universe conspired to help me and sent me this song by Jonas Blue. It is important for all of us to continue to rise until we fall and when we fall we need to dust ourselves off and rise up again. As I sat in reflection and looked back at all the great things that I have been part of over the last 45 years I realized just how capable I am and that if people don’t get me it is okay for I simply need to keep getting up and continue to step into my power and use it to shine my light and illuminate the world.
One of the things that I have found to help get back up is music. As you continue to move forward in a positive direction of your dreams it is important to see yourself as being on top of the world. Sometimes it takes a setback to help prepare you for a step up. In loss we learn important lessons that will help us to get back up.
One way to get back up is to rekindle the fire that lies inside of you and allow it to burn so you can continue to get back up after being knocked down. As long as their is a burning ember in your heart you can fan the flames and reach to heights that you never imagined as long as you keep getting back up. There will be challenges along the way but remember GOD will never give what GOD knows you can not handle. GOD wants you to stay up and to be prosperous so you can prosper others. I have come to grips with the fact that their are those I will encounter who will not be attracted to the projects that I am involved in but there are many that will be and that I should take great solace in the knowledge that through out my time on earth I have made a positive impact on many and that I should always get back up because I am capable of achieving great things. I hope this entry will help you to get back up if you are facing challenges as you are a divine child of GOD and GOD doesn’t make any junk. Namaste!!!
Through the spiritual awakening process I have come to understand that by taking action you will be victorious. It may take a lot of perseverance and persistence to achieve victory however if you stay connected to GOD victory shall be yours. Do not listen to the doubters, the haters, or the naysayers. Listen to the messages from GOD and be prepared to take action and victory shall be yours. Do not allow your negative self talk to get in the way and become an action taker and victory shall be yours. As you forward along your path to victory you will find yourself detaching from the outcome thus allowing you to be victorious and attracting more peace, love, joy, and prosperity into your life. As you move forward in a positive direction of your goals you will find that the obstacles that once stopped you are no longer obstacles but mere stepping stones to success. So many times we find ourselves forgetting everything and running that we forget the power that we have to face everything and rise.Through out my spiritual journey I have had many detractors telling me that it couldn’t be done well I proved them wrong by letting go and letting GOD I was shown resources that simply needed to be utilized to fulfill the goals and objectives that I had set for myself.
In Overcoming Adversity You Grow Personally, Professionally, and Spiritually
It is when we utilize our resources and take action that we can overcome all challenges that we face. I have been working diligently on securing chance drawing items for events that I am hosting for The American Cancer Society to raise funds for research, education, advocacy, and services and I have been reaching out through social media. Each time I get a yes it is a victory for I know that there are many caring and compassionate people in this world whom will support the efforts to attack cancer from every angle. I have come to understand that the best thing I can do is to take action using the tools at my disposal knowing that when it is all said and done I will be victorious.
Stay Connected to GOD and You Will Be Led to Victory!!!
It is when we stay connected to GOD and listen to his message that we are led to victory. In order for us to be victorious we need to stay in the arena standing up for what we believe in as we shine our light and illuminate the world.
To Gain Victory You Must Be In The Arena
It is when you step into the fray and are not afraid of losing that you will be led to victory. It is when you become an action taker and walk in your truth that you will find victory. In the years that I have been walking my spiritual path their have been some defeats however I have learned from then and as a result have had many victories. For those that have followed this blog for a while you know the many victories that I have had and the many adversities that I have faced along the way. The one thing that has kept moving toward victory is the fact that I know that I am a divine child of GOD and GOD wants me to prosper.
It is now time for you to be victorious. Namaste!!!
Words to follow to enhance your personal and professional life
The year was 1989 I had recently joined The Coral Springs Jaycees and I was sitting in a meeting where they were discussing cancelling the annual holiday shopping spree for disadvantaged youth. I stood up and I said I have an idea why don’t we go to local businesses and ask them to sponsor kids. They answered we have never done that before. In my unique JDOGG way I answered why not. They didn’t have an answer. It was at this time that I realized that sometimes you simply have to do your thing and make things happen. I went out and started to ask people that I had done business with to support the effort. At the next meeting I stood up and presented the Coral Springs Jaycees with just over $2000 to take 40 children on a holiday shopping spree. Over the next few weeks I set up several fundraisers including standing outside the KMART where we would hold the shopping spree. When the shopping spree arrived I had helped to raise enough money to take 64 children holiday shopping. Over the next 18 years I would be the Chairperson for The Spreading The Joy Program with The Coral Springs Jaycees and we would feed over 360 families for Thanksgiving and take over 900 children holiday shopping. Unfortunately The Coral Springs Jaycees no longer exist however the lessons I learned as a member and chapter president serve me today as I continue to grow personally, professionally, and spiritually.
JDOGG With Group 260 From The U.S. Peace Corps Philippines
I took my teachings about the brotherhood of man transcending the sovereignty of nations to The Philippines as a member of The U.S. Peace Corps where I served in The English Language Assistance Program where I taught at- risk youth English, Math, and Livelihood Skills at a Regional Rehabilitation Center For Youth in Bauaung, La Union. I served from July 2002 until February 2003. In those 6 months I became more and more spiritually aware and awake as I immersed myself into a culture that I was always intrigued by. It was in those 6 months that I came to understand what Mahatma Gandhi meant went he said the way to find yourself is to lose yourself in service. Upon arriving home in February 2003 I found myself less concerned with materialistic things and more concerned with being of service and value to others. I guess you can call this new found awareness a spiritual awakening of sorts as I found myself less focused on the big house, the fancy car, and the expensive clothes and more focused on empowering and inspiring others. In continuing on my spiritual journey I have come to draw from my experiences as a Jaycees member and a U.S. Peace Corps Volunteer to make a mind, body, soul connection and to continue to show the world that one man can make a difference by doing his thing and not worrying about what other people think.
In thinking outside the box you will begin to manifest the life you desire
I have been told that I am an out of the box thinker and sometimes my ideas simply overwhelm people as they can not wrap their head around a new concept because they have not been programmed that way. This is why I continue to do my thing and make things happen. I am always amazed to see a concept I came up being adopted by others and thinking I thought of that years ago and you are first doing that now. In 1990 I was one of the 1st people to hold a Spirit Night For Charity with a local restaurant. Today Give Back Nights have been adopted by many restaurants across the nation because they strengthen their brand and increase their revenue. I have always been a bit ahead of the curve as I have tapped into my inner divinity that allows me to use my creativity to make a difference in the communities where I live, work, and play. I remember the first time I did Shout Out For A Cure at a little league football game and raised nearly $100 for The American Cancer Society and people said what a great idea. Today many leagues use shout outs as fundraisers. As I reflect back over the last 40 plus years of being involved in charitable endeavors I realize that this has been my purpose all along as I have been sent to help other people excel by doing my thing.
Beanie Babies For The Cure is a program developed by Jonathan JDOOG Lederman
As I continue to do my thing I have developed a program Beanie Babies For The Cure which raises funds to attack cancer from every angle by funding research, education, advocacy, and services. This concept came to me back in May of 2018 when a friend gave me Beanie Babies and I started to give them to cancer patients. Then I brought them out to The Antique Fair at The Festival Marketplace to raise funds for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life and as a result Beanie Babies For The Cure was born. When you are connected to GOD and you head GOD’S Messages you are able to do your thing and make a positive impact on the world around you. It doesn’t matter who the president is, who is in congress, or who is on the supreme court as you have the power to do your own thing and thus be of service and value to others. As you continue on your path toward enlightenment you will encounter doubters, haters, and naysayers do not listen to them and continue to do your thing for at the end of the day the only things that matter are if you lived your life in joy and if your life brought joy to others. That $500,000 home, that $80,000 car, and the $2,000 suit well you can’t take them with you. When GOD calls you home you will either be buried or cremated and all those materialistic things will be left behind. So continue to do your thing and remember that you are simply dust in the wind.
I sat in reflection after a successful Strike Out Cancer Day with The Sunrise Sharks Travel Baseball Team and I couldn’t get the song Dust In The Wind Out of my head. I remembered a spiritual teaching that we came into the world as dust and in we will leave this world as dust so cherish all we have and embrace the chance to be a lifter for it is when we lift others that we are lifted. As you continue along your spiritual path do your thing and stay focused, centered, and grounded as you answer your calling. Namaste!!!
Help Plant The Seeds Of Hope And Healing For Cancer Patients, Their Families, and Their Friends. Http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg20All ribbons give hope to those touched by cancer
As I sat and watched NFL Football last week and saw all the Crucial Catch promotions I was filled with a sense of pride knowing that my 19 year involvement with The American Cancer Society Relay For Life was a small part in the effort to have people get screened for cancer as early detection saves live. As I saw more and more pink and then the other colors of the rainbow I started to think about the spiritual significance of the color pink. As I began to get more and more aware and awake relating to the color pink I started to understand why I felt the way I did when I donned my pink shirt the other day.
Pink, a delicate color that means sweet, nice, playful, cute, romantic, charming, feminine, and tenderness, is associated with bubble gum, flowers, babies, little girls, cotton candy, and sweetness. The color pink is the color of universal love of oneself and of others. As I sat in meditation thinking about the color pink it occurred to me why I was so drawn to pink and why it was chosen to represent breast health month.
In getting into the pink you will find yourself making a solid mind, body, and soul connection.Carry Pink Sapphire to create balance in your personal and professional life.
Attract Peace and Love into your life by carrying Morganite with you.
I have witnessed a lot of pink over the past few days and each time I see it I feel a rise in my vibration and I begin to feel more energy to move forward in my quest to be of service and value to others. As I continue to see pink it reminds me that as a spiritual being I need to be leaving a legacy of hope and healing for others. In committing to be a voice of hope for others I have found that I attract more peace, love, joy, and prosperity into my life. As I continue to receive messages from GOD and take action upon them as it relates to getting into the pink I find myself accomplishing some amazing things. I encourage people to start to get into the pink and to use the power of this color to enhance their personal and professional life.
Being in the pink has come to mean being healthy and having a rosy glow. There is another meaning that will take you in an entire different direction so we won’t get into that know. In an effort to get into the pink you will need to make a few choices in your life that at first may seem challenging however if you remember that if GOD brought you to it GOD will bring you through it. It is important to remember that GOD wants you healthy so you can prosper and thus prosper others.
Become a blooming flower by being spiritually awake so as to create the life you desire.
Just as a flower blooms you to are blooming so as to show your beauty as you continue to shine your light and illuminate the world. As you continue on your spiritual path remember to get into the pink. As you get into the pink you will find yourself manifesting everything you desire to create a life filled with bliss and abundance.
Follow the pink path to find your true calling.
May your journey into the pink be one that allows you to reach incredible heights where compassion and kindness will rule the day allowing you to make a joyful noise as you continue to get in tune with your inner divinity. Namaste!!!
Over the last few weeks I have found that I have been wearing more and more purple. As I continue on my spiritual journey I was wondering why I was so attracted to purple so I looked up it meaning. The color purple is often associated with royalty, nobility, luxury, power, and ambition. Purple also represents meanings of wealth, extravagance, creativity, wisdom, dignity, grandeur, devotion, peace, pride, mystery, independence, and magic. In finding the meaning of the color purple I began to awaken more and more spiritually and I became more aware of my encounters with the color purple. As I sat in meditation about the color purple and how many times it has played a role in my life I was awakened to the concept that we are all purple on the inside. Inside of us we have a divine power to attract peace, love, joy, and prosperity into our lives and this power is generally represented by a purple prism that casts a shadow of hope and healing.
Amethyst is a powerful stone
The Intuitive Eye
Despite it’s prevalence, amethyst has been one of the world’s most revered stones for many centuries. Found in as many places as Brazil, Bolivia, Mexico, Africa, Canada, Russia, USA and Europe, this stone has a rich history of astonishing civilizations with its stunning, saturated beauty. While the Neolithic people in Europe it as a mere decorative emblem around 25,000 B.C., Ancient Greeks and Romans used amethyst in several ways from beads in jewelry to amulets. These ancient civilizations placed a high value in this stone. Their belief was that the amethyst crystal meaning was synonymous with luxury. As such, it was highlighted as part of their crowns, scepters and rings. Christian bishops once wore amethyst jewelry in the form of a ring. It’s color was meant to symbolize royalty and an allegiance to Christ. Members of the Catholic clergy wore amethyst stone in their crosses because their amethyst meaning was one of piety and celibacy. It is even thought that the breast plate of the high priest of Israel was adorned with an amethyst as its ninth stone. It’s said that there were ten stones upon which the names of the tribes of Israel were engraved, and amethyst is believed to have been one of such stones.
The name amethyst translates in Greek to, “not drunken.” An ancient Greek myth explains this seemingly odd name. According to the myth, the god Bacchus was angry, and had vowed to descend a hoard of tigers upon the first person who crossed his path. Amethyst was on her way to give thanks at the shine of the god Diana, when she happened upon Bacchus. Before the tigers could eat Amethyst, she was saved by Diana, who turned her into a clear crystal. Bacchus, remorseful for the fate he had so recklessly caused the girl, poured the juice of grapes over the stone as an offering, and thus bestowed the crystal with its unique purple coloring. The greeks gave amethyst crystal meaning, perpetuating a belief that it could inhibit the intoxication of all who wore it. In the Chinese philosophy of Feng Shui, amethyst meaning is quite different. Amethyst properties are not of sobriety, but of wealth in this ancient harmonizing technique. If placed in the wealth corner, amethyst can amplify the flow of prosperity into the home.
Amethyst crystal is one of several varieties of quartz, which gives it a crystal trigonal system. With a hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale, it is a durable stone. Its lavender to violet shade is the result of iron and aluminum deposits, as well as natural irradiation. Amethyst stone is made up of silicon dioxide.
Amethyst healing properties are as plentiful as the stone itself. It is thought of mostly as a protective stone. As it is linked to the crown chakra, it is helpful in purifying the mind and clearing it of negative thoughts. This includes the negativity of stress and anxiety, which is why many meditate with amethyst so as to rid themselves of that darkness. Amethyst healing properties are especially useful in regards to work-related stress, because the stone is also associated with abundance; therefore relieving stress while emanating prosperity. The amethyst properties which facilitate intuition and communication can also be applied to increased work effectiveness.

Charoite is a great stone for calming
Introduction to the Meaning and Uses of Charoite
Charoite is an incredible stone of the Violet Ray with an almost tangible movement of energy flowing in magnificent swirls and eddies of violet, lavender and purple. It is rare and complex, one of nature’s best dream stones and illuminators, allowing access to lessons learned in past lives, healing emotional fears to live in the present, and opening to spiritual guidance for the future.
This stone embodies a unique synthesis between the Crown and Heart Chakras, bringing high spiritual energy into union with unconditional love from the physical plane, and grounding it here on Earth where it is needed most. It is a Stone for This Age, assisting in the here and now…conveying the message that one is exactly where one should be during this moment. It is a talisman of acceptance and letting go; a “bestower of good,” encouraging service to humanity, and for attaining approval of the Self.
Discovered in the 1940s, Charoite was unknown to the outside world until 1978. Its name is derived from the Chara (or Charo) River in eastern Siberia, Russia, the only site in the world where it is found. The word “Chary” in Russian means “magic” or “charms.” The term “Charoite Jade” is a trade name for Charoite used in various applications as a decorative stone.
In life we find many spiritual connections sent to us through GOD and it is up to us to take those messages and act accordingly being guided by GOD, Jesus, The Ascended Masters, and The Angels. I often find myself connected to songs like this one from Prince that reminds me that after every storm there is a rainbow. In many cases we need to experience the purple rain and see the beauty that comes when the storm stops knowing that if GOD brought us to it GOD will bring us through it. It all comes down to growing personally, professionally, and spiritually knowing that we are divine children of GOD and GOD wants us to succeed.
Purple Flowers.
Spread Goodness With Purple Flowers
With its origins tied to royalty and ceremony, purple flowers represent dignity, pride and success. Whether grouped alone in a bold range of rich hues or mixed in with other colors to provide depth and contrast, an arrangement filled with purple blooms represents accomplishment and admiration. As I delved more and more into all things purple I began to understand why this was the color chosen to represent The American Cancer Society Relay For Life and why we give purple shirts to our cancer survivors at Relay For Life. I started to look at all the times I have worn purple be it the purple Relay For Life Sneakers of the purple tee-shirts, or purple hoodies and each time I felt a positive shift in my vibrations and thus was able to find success in my fundraising efforts. It seems that when I wear purple and surround myself with purple that I attract bliss and abundance into my life. I also find that my commitment to be of service and value to others is increased as my sense of purpose is heightened as I absorb the traits represented by the color purple.
One of my favorite essential oils is lavender as it has a soothing and calming effect. I have found that when I use a bit of lavender I am able to tap into my inner divinity and thus am better to follow the messages being sent to me from GOD to continue on my spiritual path and to shine my light bright for others to see so that together we can illuminate the world.
Allow Your Butterfly To Soar
As you continue to grow personally, professionally, and spiritually remember that you are are an emerging spirit and soar as high as you can realizing that we are all purple on the inside. Namaste!!!
As you experience a spiritual awakening you will begin to find that you manifest your own opportunity. As you become more and more aware and awake you will find yourself taping into a divine guidance system that will lead you toward spiritual enlightenment. Each day as you walk your spiritual path you will have the opportunity to create the life you desire. The first step is to understand that what the mind can conceive and the heart can believe you can achieve. What we think about expands and when we take action it comes to fruition. I have witnessed first hand the success of becoming an action taker. I have had many experiences where I simply took action on an idea and as a result of becoming an action taker I was met with success. One instance occurred last year as I was seeking chance drawing items for an event to benefit The American Cancer Society Relay For Life. As an avid football fan I reached out out to Riddell who makes min helmets of different teams. I was able to connect with their marketing department and tell them who I was and what i wanted the mini helmets for and they sent me 30 mini helmets from The Giants, Jets,Dolphins, Patriots, and Steelers to use in my fundraising efforts to help create a world with less cancer and more birthdays. As a result I was able to use the mini helmets to help generate $3536. Today (10/4/2018) was a great example of manifesting opportunity. I had contacted Petruccos Collectibles about helping to support The Strike Out Cancer Day that I am hosting on October 13 with The Sunrise Sharks Travel Baseball Team and they had me come by their warehouse today to pick up some items to use in a chance drawing. Petruccos Collectibles gave me a signed Muhamed Ali Picture, a Willie Mays Photo, a Mickey Mantle Photo, and a box of Mark McGuire Slavino Slammer Beanie Babies. In follow the messages from GOD to continue to reach out to people for assistance I have been able to manifest items that will help in my quest to attack cancer from every angle.
Follow GOD and become an action taker and you will manifest great opportunities
It is when we make a commitment to follow the messages from GOD that we begin to manifest opportunity so that we can continue to be of service and value to others. When we continue to use our talents for good while following GOD’S Plan we create a better life for ourselves and others. I have seen the concept of being a cheerful giver work many times as what I have given has come back to me 10 fold. A few years ago a friend asked me to donate to their Team In Training campaign and I gave $18. The next week while working as an appoint setter for The Happy Herald I set an appoint that resulted in a sale of $1800 earning me $180. The lesson I learned from this experience is to come from a position of abundance and give when you can. As I was finishing up the day today (10/4/2018) I realized that another great component of manifesting opportunity is to show gratitude to those helping you and to continue be a cheerful giver. As you continue on your spiritual journey become cognizant of the messages that are being sent to you so that you can manifest opportunity. Namaste!!!
As I walked around the lake today (9/21/2018) I kept hearing a message, you are limitless. As I finished up my training for my position as an Outside Community Service Advisor with Alexander -Levitt Funeral and Cremations I began to realize why I was getting the messages to stretch the limit it was because GOD want me as well as you to prosper by being limitless in our thinking and to follow our heart by understanding that the only one stopping us is ourselves. How many times have you heard you can’t or that is impossible and you believed it so you didn’t continue to do what you were doing only to utter the words I wish I had at a later time. As you become more and more awake and aware you need to stop listening to the doubters, the haters, and the naysayers and simply stretch the limit.
Passion + Action = Success
There were many people who doubted me and told me I would never be an announcer because I had a learning disability and at one time in my life stuttered. Well I defied the odds and I developed my GOD given talent and I landed several announcing gigs including doing The Miami Caliente of The Legends Football League Games and Lingerie Bowl 7. Since my foray into becoming an announcer, an emcee, and a voice over talent I have learned that you must follow your passion and take action in order to find success. In stretching the limit and going after what I wanted I have found some success and I hope my stories of overcoming adversity will encourage you to stay on your path to grow personally, professionally, and spiritually. There comes a time when we must follow our inner divinity and connect with GOD so that we can stretch the limit and manifest the life we desire. That time is now for if you want to truly attract bliss and abundance into your life you must become an action taker who doesn’t allow people to tell you that you can’t do something. You are a divine child of GOD who can accomplish anything that you put your mind to it. It is your time to break down the boundaries and to take to the limit.
When you decide to take it to the limit you will find yourself accomplishing things that some people only imagine. In 1995 I was named one of The Top 5 Jaycees in America as I took the idea of service to humanity being the best work of life to the limit. It has be 23 years since this accomplishment and the award still hangs in my bedroom as a reminder of what can be done when you listen to your heart and GOD and don’t allow others to tell you that it can not be done and you take action to do it. In those 23 years since earning that very prestigious honor I have continued to take it to the limit by being of service and value to others and not worrying about what others my think for at the end of the day what matters is did I please myself and did I please GOD.
As I continue to stretch the limits I have adopted this song as one of my anthems because I have come to know that the only one that can stop me is me. I have had many a set back and challenge but I know that as long as I am connected to GOD, Jesus, The Ascended Masters, and The Angels that nothing will break my stride and as long as I move forward in a positive direction toward my goals that I will attract peace, love, joy, and prosperity into my life. It is when we stretch what we perceived to be limits that we have the greatest success. When you walk in your truth you are going to encounter those who will try to bring you down. To those people I simple say thank you for your doubt only made me stronger.
Now is your time to break the chains that have held you back and created blockages by seeing increase and stretching the limits that no longer exist as you have become an action taker and are creating the life that you desire. It is time for you to stop you negative self talk and to understand that you are limitless and capable of amazing things. It is time for you to step into your power and become great by stretching the limit.
It is your time to go get it and be prosperous in this season as you stretch your limits and don’t let anything hold you back. IT doesn’t matter about the economy, who is in political office, or what others says all that matters is that you believe in yourself and that you take action to stretch the limits and to be the exceptional person that you are. It is your time to shine bright and illuminate the world and don’t let anyone else tell you differently. Namaste

Spiritual Awakening: Getting Fresh: A Case Study!!!
Be The Change you want to see in this world.
The other day I was a bit upset about the situation I was left in as my DAD passed on June 7, 2018. I was feeling all types of pressure as I haven’t had a full time job in over two years and I have been simply scrapping by and now I am faced with paying off a mortgage and a home equity loan totaling just over $40,000. I then took a deep breath and went outside to sit on the bench by the lake and think what am I going to do. I was given the message take everything one day at a time and it will all work out. Thus I turned the page and gained a fresh perspective. When I went to pay the mortgage I showed gratitude and was thankful that I was able to pay the initial payment and interest and have some left over to apply just to the principal. I then realized that GOD will provide and as long as I take action and give praise and glory to GOD that each day I can get fresh. I have come to learn that when you let go and let GOD that good things will happen and that you can always get fresh. May you get fresh and attract much peace, love, joy, and prosperity into your life. Namaste!!!
This fundraiser raised $264 for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life Of Sunrise
On Sunday September 16,2018 I hosted The Judith Miller Memorial Bowling Party to benefit The 2019 American Cancer Society Relay For Life Of Sunrise. At 1st I was a bit disappointed by the fact that only 4 people showed up, me along with 3 others. I took a deep breath and I decided that I would take the lemons that life had thrown my my and make lemonade. I decided to be grateful for those tat showed up and to be proactive and share what we were doing with others at the bowling center. As a result we did a make me an offer table with some excellent items. As a result we had a few people make donations for the items and at the end of the event we raised $264 to help those touched by cancer. As I dropped off the money to The American Cancer Society today (9/18/2018) I started to reflect on how during the spiritual awakening process it is to focus on the good and to make lemonade whenever you get the chance. As I drove around doing errands and taking care of some personal things I realized the date and thought wow there are 2 18’s in the date. 18 in Hebrew is Chai meaning life so today we get double chai and a chance to rejoice in the day that the lord hath made and be glad in it. In changing my attitude I have seen a positive shift in my life which is giving me the opportunity to be of service and value to others. Instead of get angry and discouraged I decided to turn the lemons into lemonade. As a result I have found that I attract more peace, love, joy, and prosperity into my life. In simply letting go and letting GOD the results I have achieved have far exceeded my expectations. I learning to detach from outcomes I have been able to find bliss and abundance thus putting me in a position to share with others.
When you choose to make lemonade out of lemons you many want to adopt some songs that will help you stay focused, centered, and grounded so that you can move forward in a positive direction of your goals. In realizing that things will get easier as you consult with GOD, Jesus, The Ascended Masters, and your angels you will find that you manifest the greatness in your life that is your birthright. There will be times when you get upset however take a moment to breath and then follow the messages that you are receiving and then take the necessary action needed to move ahead on your spiritual journey.
One of the greatest lessons I have learned thus far as a result of a spiritual awakening that when we let go and let GOD that he gives us a power to break every chain and thus take all those lemons and make lemonade. Sometimes it is just a matter of remembering that you are a divine child of GOD and GOD wants you to prosper. I have come to realize that it is important to be true to yourself and to simply follow your heart as guided by GOD and good things will happen. Along the way their will be challenges and that is when it is important to realize that if GOD brought you to it GOD will bring you through it. I have also learned that GOD will never give you to much to handle as he knows exactly what you can handle.
As you turn lemons into lemonade remember to take action to keep on moving and spreading your message as you continue to enhance your personal, professional, and spiritual life while being of service and value to others. Namaste!!!
