One of the most challenging tasks in life is finding your purpose. Sometimes it can take years to come up with an idea or find the inspiration that puts you on track to living your dream.
But inspiration and ideas flow into your life more often when you are not preoccupied with debt, bad relationships, and negative people. Understand that and the importance of time and you’ll begin to attract success. But that starts with cleaning out the mess in your life.
Debt for example creates stress and puts you in a survival mode instead of a mindset of optimism and prosperity.
Bad relationships takes your attention away from studying, thinking creatively and feeling good about yourself and negative people steal your happiness, create frustration and causes you to doubt yourself.
There’s nothing more critical in life than finding your talents and discovering your passions but you’ll never find it if you don’t start eliminating those things that are blocking you from having peace of mind. Once you have peace you’ll have focus and once you have focus you’ll build confidence, then they’ll be no stopping you!

Just How Rare Is A Good Date? Have You Had Dating Nightmares? Share Them With Me!
Dating isn’t dead, romance is dead, dressing up is dead, holding hands in public is dead, and people not understanding the value of dating each other is dead! If you look at the failure of most relationships it starts with one or both partners getting too comfortable and forgetting how important it is to continue to date each other.
And when it comes to being single and dating, Boy, you better watch out! The stories you hear are downright frightening. Here are some of the responses I received when I posted this question on Facebook!
Toni Baker-Tyson Lol! I was new to Charlotte from New Jersey. I was newly divorced and meeting my girlfriend’s cousin. I trusted her judgment, he was in the area and asked if he could stop by with her on the phone too. He wanted to briefly meet me. He was fine, I me PHINE, fine. We talked longer than expected and had non-alcohol drinks. He asked if he could use the bathroom and was missing in action longer than anticipated. I went down the hall to see if he was okay. He was butt naked on my bed!!!😳I informed him I wasn’t sure what gave him that impression. However, I told him to get dress quickly and it was time for him to go!!!😳
Are We Seeing Other People Are What? How Frustrating Is It To Have Grown A** Man Or Woman Lie About Seeing Other People?
What’s wrong with a grown man or woman in their 30’s, 40’s, and even 50’s that they can’t tell someone straight up, “I like you, I’d want to date you, BUT I’m seeing someone else!” What’s so complicated about that?
Instead of coming correct and being honest about how they’re living, you have to play detective and psychologist to figure out if this person is telling the truth or not.
This robs both people of their energy, focus, and most importantly, their valuable TIME! And that’s what sets off mature men and women who have better things to do then to be lied to. It’s just stupid! Yes, feeling gets hurt, but that time is being wasted, now that’ll really piss you off!
It took me until I was 30 years old to wake up and realize I was only adding stress to my own life and I was hurting women, actually, destroying them emotionally because women really do believe us when we tell them, “You’re the only one!”
And let me share something with all you so-called players. Being honest and truthful is for your benefit…you idiot! It reduces the drama in YOUR life by eliminating all the lying and sneaking around.
Honesty helps everyone manage their emotions because you know where you stand. The reason so many people get caught up is because the liar is selling fantasies! That may seem like all fun and games in the beginning, but in the end, the trusting person will crash and burn.
Transparency allows you to make conscious choices and maintains a true friendship and maintain respect! And what could be more important than that?

Doesn’t It P*** You Off When Men Try To Justify Cheating? – Michael Baisden
When I posted this topic, Stop Having Sex With Married Men, on my Michael Baisden Live Page on Facebook some people actually defended the married man saying he was probably not happy at home, most of them men, of course. It’s amazing to me how the human mind works; we will flip a topic in a split second to justify our immoral behavior. However, when it happens to us we are completely devoid of the same reasoning. Go figure! Read what Mr. Wilson had to say about why he cheated. He actually posted this comment on my Facebook page.
• • •
Mr. Wilson wrote: Women fail to take into account the reason that the man is cheating in the first place. No man I’ve ever met has truly left one woman for another; he leaves because he can no longer deal with that woman and has already moved on mentally. Women don’t realize that they push their man into the arms of another woman. I’m one of those men who cheated on his wife, left his wife, and has been happily married to the same woman I was involved with while I was married.
We’ve had our issues, but I can guarantee I’ve put no more or no less effort into making this marriage work than the previous. The difference is I have someone that will work with me to solve our problems and keeps our problems internal. A lot of women listen to the wrong people when dealing with problems at home. You go and talk to your mom (who probably didn’t like your husband anyway), your girlfriend that can never keep a man, that lonely older distinguished lady who hates men altogether, instead of listening to what your husband has to say. Women have to learn to shoulder more of the blame in cheating. It’s not about getting the man; it’s about keeping him. I hear so many people say, if he cheats once, he’ll do it again. I haven’t. I know I’m not the only exception to the rule.
So yeah, you’re right to be cautious in entering any situation, but until you know the entire story it’s no different than meeting someone any other type of way. You get what you want out of it and if it’s not for you, then move on. God sees everything and knows everything and God does not bless or condone every union made before him.

Some of you are probably thinking he made a great argument, right? Wrong! And then he had the audacity to throw God into the mix, which was real smooth and hypocritical. While I sympathize with his story, the woman who replied after his comment expressed precisely what I was thinking. Her name was Nay Rob. These are her exact word on her post.
• • •
Nay Rob wrote: I couldn’t see past the fact that once your marriage wasn’t fulfilling to you, you decided to see another woman before completely ending your first marriage. If your current marriage was truly meant to be then it would’ve happened anyway. I’m sorry, I don’t see your story as one that has a happy ending. If you weren’t there mentally why not just leave then? Why start seeking another woman out? A real man would leave it where it’s at and not start talking to other women, messaging chicks or spending too much time with friends.
Of course, if you aren’t happy then leave but you need to take into account you weren’t 100% focused on your marriage if 8 months before the actual divorce you were sending flirty texts to the cute girl you recently met because you’ve mentally checked out of your marriage. Even if your wife had decided to change you’re now distracted by the person you’re now texting and going on dates with. So yeah, when one foots out the door it only makes sense for the other to follow.
• • •
Boom! Nay Rob hit the nail on the head! That’s what I call clear and fair-minded thinking. The end doesn’t justify the means. Just because the current marriage seems to be working doesn’t mean he did the right thing or that the relationship with the ex-mistress will last forever. It simply means he was willing to hurt someone in order to selfishly go after what he wanted.
