SUCCESS WHILE WALKING IN OUR STILETTOS

2015 is here. I am so grateful that God allowed me to live through 2014. However, walking in my stilettos in 2014 was a real struggle for me. I had to confront many challenges some that I chose and some that the Devine Power placed into existence for me. In retrospect,I was not prepared BUT I passed and leaned the lessons.
Today, God put it on my heart to be humble, to share what lessons I leaned and to not make the same mistakes. I encourage each of you to do the same -- face your trials, disappointments, hurt, and pain. Remember there is no such thing as failure. Failure only occurs when you give up. And, giving up is Never an Option. Everything in life happens for a reason and in a season. Our journeys have been pre-planned prior to us leaving our Mother's womb. Make the best of your life. Face challenges, remove people that don't belong in your circle. Keep the ones that are positive and give you peace.
We have all faced pain, illness (some terminal), broken relationships, loss of love ones, friends and mates. Whether the circumstances were based on deception, financial struggles, unplanned pregnancies, death, lost opportunities or fake friendships . Keep Faith in your life as your second priority because our Higher Power should be our first. We will eventually get to our destiny and when we do pull someone else up with us. Be a Giver and not a Taker. Karma does exist!
Acknowledge that Our greatest disappointments will come from our love ones not our enemies. Opportunists are like magnets. They find a way to latch on to the best of us for the purpose of taking what does not belong to them. Opportunist will hurt you before you can blink your eye. Watch for the ones that always validate verbally how much of a friend they are to you. How much they want to help you. Real friends show you daily that they have your best interest at heart.
In 2015, watch for people's Character not their Words of Praise and Encouragement while they do you in. Place people in the order that they belong in your life. They will not change. They are just who they show you they are. Love is an action. Plenty of us get stuck when our relationships fail us. It's alright as long as you don't harden and become like them. I want to encourage everyone to watch who you allow in your circle. Dream-Killers, kill your dreams. Stay happy and live in peace. Each day should be spent making another step towards your goals.
Let's walk together in our Stilettos as we move towards a year of Success in ALL our Endeavors. If you fall, get back up. If you Stumble hold on to Faith.
Walking in Stilettos is a metaphor created by Diedra Wayans to reflect on difficult trials and know that they can be achieved just like a first attempt at walking in Stilettos. You must have balance in all areas of your life no matter how challenging it is to achieve it.
I genuinely love people, enjoy mentoring and motivating others. In 2015, I pledge to release all the Opportunist that have been clinging on to me for their Success. I am releasing all resentment, anger, and pain. I Surrender. Letting it go!
