There is no outside force stopping you from prospering. Are there things you must overcome? Yes! Are there people who may get in your way? Yes! Are there systemic issues that make things more difficult? Yes! But none of those things are a death blow for anyone determined to succeed and a live a life of their own intentional creation. Figure out your major roadblocks. Determine why those things have been so and begin to work on the solutions to help you overcome them. #inspiration #morningmotivation #traceyllouis #coaching #roadblocks #monday #success #empower #intentionalcreation #solutions #nyc #newjersey
It can be difficult to let go of a goal, person, idea, or habit you once held tightly and felt that it provided some level of benefit or comfort. However, since life is about change and moving purposefully toward a higher level of being, many of the #goals, #people, #ideas, or #habits may no longer have a beneficial place in our lives. It's can be hard to move on because it requires letting go and saying goodbye to a certain way of seeing yourself and processing life through. But you ARE #strong & #courageous. You CAN release what no longer benefits you to grab firmly what nurtures and benefits you. Also, be patient enough to wait on what you truly want. A life that settles will never be truly fulfilled because it hasn't achieved its potential. The moment you detect that greater potential isn't being utilized is the moment you begin to regret settling. Sometimes that happens sooner than you may have hoped. You were created for #greatness and that takes time. Nothing worth having happens overnight. Long-lasting #peace and #joy are hard won and long suffering. They come as a result of a process. Be #patient. Something greater is in store. #hope #courage #patience #greatness #coaching #tllcoaching

I'm not trying to belittle the challenges you face right now, but they're not worth the worry and energy you're putting into them. They're not worthwhile opponents for you. You have significance and a purpose to fill. Most of the things we give our creative energy to don't help further our goals. Your circumstance can't stop you from pursuing purpose unless you allow it. YOU have the power to change your outlook and actions which will therefore change your circumstances eventually. So... Focus on those things that facilitate creativity, service, love, and joy. Your current problems (I know you're uncomfortable and that's understandable) ain't nobody got time for that! {Thank you Sweet Brown 😜}
Know that the DNA for everything you ever dreamed of being is already within you. Right now you are worthy of all the things you desire. The seeds of success, wealth, happiness, loving relationships, and health are IN YOU RIGHT NOW!! You're not a spouse because you got married (plenty of married folks don't know what it truly means to be a spouse and choose to honor and love the same person daily even when the "feeling" isn't there that day.) You're a spouse because you understand what it takes and act accordingly before the wedding takes place. You're not financially wealthy because you got a lump of money (plenty of people get a lump of cash and end up broke afterward). You're wealthy because you understand and implement the principles of wealth building consistently. You're not a parent just because you have a child. You're a parent when you understand and are willing to submit to sacrifice, service and unconditional love BEFORE the kid arrives. (Anyone of reproductive age can have a child, that doesn't make them a parent) You didn't achieve business success magically (Lots of folks are "entrepreneurs" or "hard workers" and yet don't achieve success). You've achieved because somewhere down the road you understood that you needed to provide excellent service and exert consistent effort toward something of value to someone else. RIGHT NOW see yourself as ALL that you desire to be. If you don't see it, accept it, and walk in it now you'll never have it. Sometime you have to build the garage BEFORE you get the car. #DNA #success #marriage #wealth #health #tllcoaching #garage #car #parent #child #reproductive #coaching #vision #entrepreneur (at http://TheProcessOfPurpose.com)
Although many can read it, no one can write the story of your life but you. Each day you've been blessed with is a page in the story of your life. Every moment of joy and achievement or testing and trial is a chapter. None of us can say exactly what will take place in our story, but we can be certain that the outcome will be based on the consistent daily action and character we display. Use today precisely for what it was created: a blank page to be colored by your brilliance. Each day brings a new opportunity for #growth #progress #love #success #happiness #forgiveness You are the #writer of your #timeless #classic! (at http://TheProcessOfPurpose.com)

Find at least one thing to be thankful for and you'll dispel the myth and gross exaggeration that "it's ALL bad" or "NOTHING is going right in your life." All it takes is one. One blessing makes you realize you are indeed blessed. One day makes you realize you have a new start. One person loving you makes you realize you are indeed loved. One true friend makes you realize loyalty and faithfulness exist. Find a reason, just one, to be grateful and you'll put the devil to shame. Just one. #thankful #gratitude #love #friendship #loyalty #faithfulness #one #day #coaching #tllcoaching (at http://TheProcessOfPurpose.com)
Our fears and anxieties decrease DRASTICALLY when we stop focusing on the "what ifs" of tomorrow that no one can assuredly predict and begin to live with the awareness that TODAY you have your DAILY bread (#power, #control, #support, #energy, #resources, #ideas). Ease your stress and focus on today's tasks. Tomorrow won't matter if you can't make it through today. #FinalThoughtFriday #tllcoaching (at http://TheProcessOfPurpose.com)
"Let's talk about sex baby. Let's talk about you and me. Let's talk about all the good things and the bad things that may be. Let's talk about sex." Salt-N-Pepa
In his popular book, Sex God, Rob Bell says, "This is actually about that." And what I find interesting is that while society wants to talk sex, sell sex, and have sex, no one is consistently addressing that this is actually about that.
No matter who you are or what you've convinced yourself of, sex is ALWAYS about something more than the physical act. I'm not trying to sell you on the lie that the physical act can't be enjoyable simply on face value. However, once the sweaty interaction and sweet nothings are done being whispered, we want more. That's where Sex God comes in.
For the Christian, the act of sex or acknowledging our traits as sexual beings can be a landmine. Many within the church want to pretend that sex doesn't exist even though most are either having it or wanting to have it. But the physical act of sex is necessary. It is after all how babies are made (let's not play devil's advocate and bring in scientific advances, just focus on the original method, please and thanks).
And while leaders of Singles and Youth ministries encourage abstinence until marriage on the lone reasoning that the Bible says so with no more than cliched support, we must acknowledge that that's not enough. We need to discuss the greater, more powerful context in which sex and abstinence or at least careful, weighted consideration should fall.
After being sexually active for years, six years ago I decided to begin abstaining. Well, it wasn't so much of a decision as it was a leading. I'll explain. On the heels of a couple of casual and exhausting dating situations, I was ready for and wanted something more. I wanted commitment, love, mutual respect, understanding, etc. So, I decided that I would no longer continue my cavalier attitude toward sex. I'd treated it as just an act when my heart knew it was more.
However, while I was willing to carry on with the decision to wait for sex, it did NOT have to be within the confines of a marriage. Then one night on a work trip I was sitting in my hotel room studying the Word when "out of no where," it "came to me" that I would abstain until marriage. This was huge for me, because I was completely unwilling to even entertain the thought of marrying someone without knowing if we were sexually compatible or not. Isn't that always the excuse people give in order to justify sex before marriage? "I gotta know if we're compatible because sexual chemistry is important." Right?
Well it's been six years since my last "encounter" and while I had been graced to not totally bug out, I couldn't say that I've enjoyed most of this time. That is UNTIL I read Sex God.
Rob Bell makes the case that we are not angels void of any sexual desire nor are we animals incapable of controlling our urges, but humans who are sexual and that our sexuality can be expressed in many ways beyond the act of intercourse.
He highlights the fact that sex was created by God and is therefore good. However, it should be placed in proper context. Sex is about connection. It's about us being attached to something larger than just lust and momentary desire.
For a book entitled Sex God, it doesn't speak much about the act of sex. It mainly discusses the divine spark within each of us and how that is to be nurtured and respected. It speaks of intimacy beyond sex and focuses on the sacred covenant of marriage.
To keep this post from going on and on, I'll end it here and say that you should definitely pick up Sex God, if you haven't already done so. Whether you're a Christian or not, this is great reading. It helps move us from the superficial reasons we give ourselves for having sex or even abstaining for that matter to a place of enlightened consideration so we have a better understanding how THIS is truly about THAT and hopefully, avoid some of the heartache and mistakes that come when we fail to acknowledge that truth.
As a Christian, I was willing to abstain on the face of my understanding that we are commanded not to fornicate. However, after reading Sex God I have a deeper appreciation for that command and I'm enjoying abstinence in a way that I didn't think I could. Besides, I've recently learned from multiple sources that sex within the confines of marriage when it's done by two people committed to true love, service, and intimacy is far more mind-blowing than any you'll ever have in any other situation. It's about connection :-)

The one you're interested in shouldn't treat your heart like an episode of The Bachelor or any of the VH1 "dating" shows. Don't give a leading role to someone who still has you in the auditioning line with several others. Be clear on what you want and settle for nothing less than mutual respect and a shared vision. There's no harm in dating more than one person at once as long as you are open and honest CONSISTENTLY and willing to be held accountable to the stage you've stated you're in with all parties involved. But never make people compete for your affection and never allow yourself to be in competition for someone's affections. When people are ready to settle down with The One, there shouldn't be any confusion as to who that person is. If there's confusion and strife, you haven't found The One. Be responsible not only with your heart, but also with the ones you've been entrusted with. And never settled for a fleeting feature walk on role when you deserve to be the star of the show. #MatureLove #Love #Value #Worth #Audition #GodEsteem #TraceyLLouis #Coaching #TLLCoaching (at www.TheProcessOfPurpose.com)
