Are you too Medicore to judge athletes


As I watched the commentary of social media during the Olympics I keep having this same reoccurring thought:  Do people hold themselves to the same standard of excellence as they do athletes?  With your god giving gifts and talents are you maximizing your potential at work, at school, at home, at church, in your community?  If not why in the world do you have the ability to call someone else “Good” or “OK” or even “Aight” when at best you’re mediocre in your own everyday life.   If you are not getting better each day, each week, each year  in your own life then maybe you need to stop judging people so critically.  Forget about representing TEAM USA, can you even represent yourself.   I am very proud of all the athletes who represented TEAM USA at the 2012 London games.  If they placed or came in dead last, if they are professionals or amateurs  they all decided one day they would not be mediocre.  That should expire us all to stop being to mediocre in life.

In business you must get the gift of goodbye. Sometimes we have to separate from clients, partners, and people who are not helping us flourish!

Business or Hobby



Today, I attended a small business workshop hosted by The Atlanta Voice and Cross Roads News sponsored by Regions bank. Topics presented during the workshop included how to create a complete business plan, what credit worthiness is, and an overview of why accounting foundation is important. The speakers were from the SBA (Georgia State Office) and the Bennett & Moody CPA firm. This workshop was a great reminder that you need to take your business serious or its just a hobby. If you want to be a force to be reckon with, then you better reconcile those books and make a plan ASAP! I greatly appreciate the speakers for sharing their knowledge with the community.

In this month's issue of Black Enterprise there is a great article about the next generation of females in business leadership! "Rising STARS 40 & Under" showcases the best of the best in young black female power. Bridget McCRea has interesting tidbits on how to think like a women but manage money like a man! I think we should implement and learn these lesson way before 40. I have a great idea cooking to do just that. Please let me know your views, and stay empowered.

Taking Control

Hi All,

Taking Control of your business usually involves taking control of your life first! In 2012 as I build my empire, that is exactly what I am doing. This month, I started with my environment. I wanted my home office to be inspiring and reflect me and my ambitions! Surround yourself with positive, inspiring, passionate images, smells, and people. I also brought organization to my desk and got rid of all the clutter! My thoughts were scattered and thus my work was as well. It begins, the building of the LaShelle Denise, LLC empire!
