What is one word that describes you?
I’ve been through many trials and tribulations that I constantly discuss as a test of my strength and faith. Each time I overcome those trials and tribulations, it makes me stronger, makes me wanna go harder, and makes me more ambitious if you will. What’s the definition of that? Being ambitious. Nothing stops me from going in any direction, or work that I want to do. If I see a dream or vision, even if it’s outside of work, it’s going to happen. Sometimes in order to take a win, you have to take a lose, and I’ve done so many times courageously, so what shall stop me now?
The ambition I have, I was naturally born with. It wasn’t until I became diagnosed with Epilepsy that I realized what people with disabilities go through. The continuous refilling of prescriptions, making sure you took and it is the right medication for that moment, feeling as though no one understands your condition. That lost me in a way, a dark way because how was I to cope with things like this? I managed to start writing, networking, and going out, meeting others with similar situations of whom I inspired myself. Here it is, I think I’m lost in a world full of others who see more in me than I did myself. That’s where the ambition hit harder.
After almost 9 years of being diagnosed, I have my own business helping others, and whatever else I decide to do, I go out and talk to people in my city hoping for a change in direction. We all wear different shoes, in different sizes, so yes what you went through may be harder than what I did, and you know what I allow you to know. There’s always a lot more to every story, I donate because I understand how it feels to be in the middle of nowhere, unsure of how you’re going to make it to the next day. I’ve been in many different shoes and walked a few different steps, so when people talk about the Most High, and use the word “can’t,” in their vocabulary, I always recommend praying on anything, but “can’t” isn’t in my dictionary. You CAN, and you WILL.
