I do these “performance review” conversations with my daughter so she knows she can always come to me with things she would like me to change. Right now it’s mostly silly, childish things like not turning the lights if she’s still in a room. But I know in the future, it will be more serious things as she continues to grow up.
Out to breakfast with Poppyseed and getting my annual performance review from her. Y’all pray for me. ☺️

you sit there, hiding under the blanket of procrastination, terrified reality won't honour your expectations, forgetting it's a far greater sin to be a coward than a failure
as some wise person on Twitter once said, via Helen DeWitt: "procrastination is how you preserve the fantasy of your potential"

Dr. Jung once told me that any man who comes into your consulting room will either be 21 or 45 years of age no matter his chronological age because his problems will be that he can't get into life or can't get out of life. Those are the only 2 problems a man ever has.~RA Johnson

Only crazy ppl understand this. All or nothing baby 🤷🏽‍♀️🤣
The fastest, most powerful, most efficient psychological methods for transformation also have the highest risk of (re)traumatization. Will not elaborate.

Gotta face the hate first, if not it becomes a demon that will show itself again, and again, until you acknowledge it.
you can "speedrun inner work" by going straight to the final boss and forgiving your parents

"The coping mechanism disappeared. The thing he was coping with didn’t." Addictions are EFFECTS we think we can "treat" by circumventing the mental/emotional/spiritual CAUSES of said addictions.
Ozempic took away Johann Hari’s oldest comfort. He lost the weight. His back pain vanished. He looked better than he had in years. And he felt worse. He says he’d never actually felt full in his life. Only stuffed. Eating until he physically couldn’t fit another bite, but never that quiet signal of “okay, you’ve had enough.” Then one day he got his old go-to order, a bucket of fried chicken. One drumstick in, he realized that if he forced down more, he’d throw up. That’s the part nobody puts in the ads. These drugs slow down how fast your stomach empties. Overeat, especially greasy food, and you can end up nauseous or vomiting. But the chicken was never the point. Since he was a kid, stuffing himself was how he calmed down. Ozempic shut that off overnight. The coping mechanism disappeared. The thing he was coping with didn’t. Millions of people are about to run into the same wall. When food stops working as a painkiller, something else rushes in. Drinking. Scrolling. Shopping. Or finally facing what was underneath. The weight was never the real problem. It was the bandage.

The best of everything will ALWAYS be available, but only to those with the hearts and eyes to see it.
Don't let social media fool you. There are black women being loved correctly everyday all day by black men in real life.

Bars! Anything you put above God is an idol and that’s exactly what a belief in scarcity is.
Replying to @shagbark_hick
frugality is the same as the love of money, money become an idol. It consumed me too. What are your gifts and how God want you to use them?

Nutritionally: B12, copper, iron Physically: All 3 stored in the liver (issue: bile sludge) & absorbed in gut (issue: microbiome imbalance) Mentally: Ppl ASSUME this is normal so as a man thinketh… Spiritually: Warring with yourself keeps you in a state of stress & dis-ease
Yo by 30 I’m noticing males are growing grey hairs now. Not normal. What’s in the water or the foods? Lack of vitamins?
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Gray hairs commonly start appearing in men by their mid-30s as a normal genetic part of aging, not unusual or mainly from water/food/vitamins. my.clevelandclinic.org/health/symptom… biologyinsights.com/when-do-men-st… fullyvital.com/blogs/hair-car… pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22716034/
