#selftalk Repost @scribesandvibes ・・・ #CHANGETHENARRATIVE... Speak less of who you were, Speak more of who you are. Think about the #plottwist. YOU GOT THIS! Your ability to articulate the divinity within will make you a star. Change the narrative. Change the narrative. Take the band-aids off, Open your heart and let the world see your scars. Speak of those #definingmoments, There's no shame in the pain. Tell the world, "The things that break you make you who you are." Change the narrative. Teach the boys and girls how the lowest moments in life have prepared you to reach for the stars. Teach the boys and girls how you acquired #emotionalintelligence from the grief of being #emotionallyscarred. Teach the boys and girls why everything you've been through has made you everything you are. #SPEAKLIFE. Plant seeds of wisdom in the youth, Help the boys and girls grow. Speak life. Teach the youth to live and let die, Preach the power of letting go. Speak life, even if it kills you to #speakyourtruth; You must know that everything you've been through has been preparing you for everywhere you must go. -Stevie #youarenotyourcircumstances #sonnet | #ChangingTheNarrative revisited ・・・ #vibewise: You are not defined by your circumstances. You have the ability to defy your circumstances. You have to keep an eye on your choices, for they behold the seeds of your chances. You will be refined via your choices, make the most of your chances. Under no circumstances will I allow you to think quitting is a choice, #BELIEVEINYOURSELF, I will not let you squander your chances. Under the circumstances, You will make better choices And take time to prepare for better chances. Stand firm in your decisions. #WALKINYOURPURPOSE. Be anxious of nothing Yet leave nothing to happenstance. In the journey of life, You must step up, You cannot live a #purposedrivenlife by happenstance. #CHANGEYOURMINDCHANGEYOURLIFE, It's that simple at a glance. To be or not to be is a choice, Just be careful with that choice. You only have #onelifetolive And #NOW is your chance! -Stevie #defyingtheodds #poem • #UnderNoCircumstances https://www.instagram.com/p/Cnho7jVgTr4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
