Level Up…
You know the vibes…it’s all about doing better for yourself. It’s all about elevating and reinventing yourself. The level up is important after any situation where things may not have gone well. It’s not important to the point where you have to act like you’re something you’re not in order to keep up with the Jones’s, because if you have to take a step back to go a few steps forward, that shouldn’t make you feel a way. But when you do leave one situation and head into another. You are heading into that situation with either a lot of confidence or a lot of baggage and who likes baggage, you know?
it’s been studied that work date “Up or across” when it comes to men after coming from a previous relationship. Men can “Date down” but ultimately, in the back of a lot their minds, they want to make sure that the next relationship they’re in, is an upgrade from their previous relationship. Women do it also, but I’m speaking from my perspective because I’m choosing my business as my next relationship. I found that every time that I try to give a full effort into my work and I’m dating someone, it always ends because it’s hard for some people to come to grips that somebody can in fact be committed to their work, more than the attention that they give to their partner. If you’re an insecure person that may need extra attention, it may be hard for someone to be in a relationship like that because you’re gonna have to know that you are at least number 4 on the priority list. God, myself, my son and my business are top priority and I think that I’m at a point where the focus has to be on my work. It’s what keeps me going.
I don’t want to sound like it’s vain or anything or even shallow but that’s just how I feel about the level up. The moral of this post is to bring encouragement to those who don’t believe that they even deserve better than what they had. The answer is that, you do. Even now more so.
You always deserve better. You should always be upgrading your situation. No matter what.
Take the time to work on yourself and try to heal from whatever you may have been hurt by in the past that will prevent you from being able to even receive a new person into your life in the first place. Discover more about yourself and take advantage of the time that was being spent pouring into someone else and pour into yourself instead. Much Love ❤️ -Jermy
Respeckt.
Being disrespected is not fun. Nor is it cool. I demand my respect and will be treated as such. I know my worth. I know my value. I’m priceless. Imagine working so hard to come to a place where you feel that you finally have a sense of some self-worth and somebody decides to try and devalue that? Imagine that. I am the prize. I am the crown jewel. I am enough. I am worthy. I demand my respect. You know, I kinda feel Bryan Birdman Williams on his stance with feeling disrespected By the breakfast. How could you not? If I were to try and put some kind of monetary value on my worth, I would say that it’s about worth 2 trash bags worth of clothes and a whole lot of healing to do and heartache to bare. I demand my respect. Not from you. But from myself. I was always taught to point the finger at yourself at all times and always expand your hand, first.
When you’re of high value, They don’t put you on just any old shelf. They make a special area for you and put you behind a glass case or a roped off area. The yeezy’s are never next to the converses. treat yourself like you’re rare. treat yourself like there would be catastrophic levels of some kind if this thing is damaged in any way. The Mona Lisa at the L’ouvre. Put some respect on your name. Know your value. Know your worth. Don’t take shit from anybody. Trust in God. Believe in yourself. The devil is a liar. And that’s all I have to say about that. Much Love, always. ❤️ -Jermy
What’s really good…
How y’all feeling today? I think I’m in a good groove now with this whole quarantine, “new normal” thing. It’s definitely a crazy time but God is good anyhow, you know? I’ve been working on my side hustles and they’ve been doing great. I truly am thankful for an opportunity to still create and make a living for myself and my family. It’s more than enough and I’m grateful for that. Business are going out of business all over the country and it’s looking like it’s not letting up any time soon. It’s important to be thankful for what you do have and enjoy the time that you are spending with your loved ones at this time. I feel good today and I hope you feel the same. Remember to keep a positive attitude at all times, even when things look a little bleak. Put a premium on prayer and love is the key, always. Much Love ❤️ -Jermy
