I Need Feed Back

What Book Do You Really Want Next…
I was sitting around the other day and was tossing and turning thinking about what to do because I have so many things I want to do, I don’t know which one to advance on first. So the best way to make a decision is to give it to the readers and find out what they want to hear/read. So check the list and based on the description I gave let me know if it would be interesting.

Life on Hold...
This is a kick off of a series where eventually all the characters will have their own book that leads you back to this book. The novel Life on Hold focuses on a newly married couple (David & Pam) and all the up’s and downs of life that they go through and how they depend on God and each other to make it.

From the Top of My Lungs...
Just like “Speak What You Scared to Whisper” is a collection of poetry focusing on Spirituality and Religion all original poetry.

Truth Be Told...
This is a collection of short stories or what I call mini-movies. Cover a vast amount of topics.

The Outline of A Man...
As you can tell this book is geared towards Men stressing how important it is to strive to be successful, keeping God first and doing what’s right even though it doesn’t always feel right. Also it’s an attempt challenge them to be a role model for the younger generation and for others in their same bracket.

The Quote Calendar...
This will focus on quotes both from me and others that inspire me. Along with pictures from my team of artist/photographers.

F.F.T. (Food For Thought)

The fact that I’m in the room is a problem… I don’t ever want people to feel like they have to change the way they conduct themselves to appeal to me or anyone for that matter. Now on a spiritual level that statement is true because the devil/enemy/powers that be (whatever you want to call him) doesn’t want you to influence anybody to do anything. His motto is “the less you do, the better”, he wants to drain you of all you creative energy to the point to where you yourself become lethargic to life in general. So my words to you today don’t allow life to sit on your shoulders and weigh you down. What I always tell young brothers and sisters that I talk with about school and life. I always tell them any progress is better than no progress. As long as you are putting forth an effort to better yourself, or as Jonathan Sprinkles would say “Giving God Something To Work With” he will continue to open doors for you. Saying all that to say this your circle of friends or your support group is very important, because the people you have in your life are doing one of two things. Their either adding to your success and growth as an individual or they are simply along for the ride.

This is just something to chew on for little bit, food for thought.

What Can You Do To Change The Future?

This was a question that was asked to me by a good friend years ago and I really couldn’t answer him because I misunderstood the question. Well from what I’ve learned and been through I look at that question much differently. Because In order to change the future you must first change yourself, I say that because you can’t lead your peers (or the younger generation) if you yourself are walking around blindfolded. What you think of yourself and how you conduct yourself is very important, it has a lot to do with how you handle situations. Where you see yourself going, and what you are doing to improve yourself as a person (husband, wife, boy/girl friend whatever). I challenge all of you who read this blog to do something that makes you better. Either read something, write something down, workout meet someone new. Anything. Just do something that will help you grow.

I’ll add to this later…or comment if you want.
