It’s All About The Hustle And The Grind!

This is dedicated to all my Hustlers and Grinders out there making shit happen in the world!

It takes effort, sometimes called blood, sweat and tears to create a thing, and breathe life into it.

It applies to building a business, developing your body or your mind, and even being a good student.

You’ve heard the expression “anything worth having is worth working for”.  If you had not, now you have.

I am giving a big shout out to my daughter for launching her new enterprise Macklin Bath and Home, a luxury self-care experience.

Don’t Stop! Won’t Stop!

I am shouting out all the fabulous ladies out here making their mark on the world and making other people’s lives better by doing the things they love.

Styled By Elegance Boutique is having her Grand opening this Sunday along with a Cancer Awareness Glow Up Event.  Details can be found on Eventbright.com.

Black and woman-owned!

It doesn’t get any better than that.

Support your own.  Your sisters and your brothers.

There is nothing like building and creating something you can share with the world.

It gets even better when it is something you love to do.

You better love it because it takes hugh doses of commitment to stay the course to manifestation.

I’ve said before, life is not for the weak-at-heart.  Being a creator requires major trust and belief in yourself that keeps you going under any condition, in any situation, when things aren’t quite working out as planned, when no one else can see your vision, for all the things and all the reasons.

We are all creators.

We are all capable of bringing all kinds of marvelous things into being.

Creating and manifesting is our reason for being.

We create willingly or by default.  The choice is yours.  Better to choose and enjoy the fruits of your labors, than to be a slave to chance.

Just to repeat something I shared with one of these fabulous ladies today, Our Blessings ARE in the work of our hands.  Then God steps in and does her part.  That’s how we make shit happen!

God said so himself (herself) in the good book of life.

“Watch And See What I Will Do”

God never said, sit down and wait for me.

Use your hands, gifts, talents and skills and make yourself some Blessings!

Take one step and watch God take two, three, twelve and thirteen, for you.

God works for all of us!

No exceptions!  All of us!

And, ain’t nothing wrong with saying shit while I talk about God!  Grow up!

There is no age limit to being enterprising and using your talents, skills, gifts and Blessings.  You are not too young.  Nor are you too old.

Shout outs are also due to my first, and oldest, 15 year old grandson who creates custom game controllers.

The entrepreneurial spirit is every where.  In every one.

My 12 year old neighbor (I think he is twelve) mows my lawn.  I have a need.  He fills it.  We both win.

Creators.  It is who and what we are.

Someone has a need.  Someone fills the need.

We are here to serve each other.  Joyfully.

And…. we get paid for the work we do!  Money! Money! Money!

Ain’t nothing wrong with making the money.

And, it’s even better when you make the money yourself, your way, on your time.

We are here to Bless each other and live our lives being the best version of ourselves we can be.

I’m having my furnace inspected for the upcoming season next week by another entrepreneur who has built a business which serves his needs and his life, being of service to others.

Being of service.  Not being a servant!

Brothers on the move, and, rising up.

Always rising up!

I am a serial entrepreneur.  Fruitfull Vine that I am.  Always have been.  Always will be.  Ain’t no better way to be.

In a world filled with billions of people, there are more than enough slices of pie for all of us to have our share of the goodness life has to offer, doing exactly what we choose, being exactly who we are.

Billions of people means there is no competition.  Do not fall for that B.S.

Competition is fear trying to keep you small.

Ain’t nobody like you.  Nobody can be you.  Nobody can do what you do the way you do it.   Or, bring it like you.

I encourage you to step into your potential.

It. Is. All. About. The. Hustle. And. The. Grind!

Which simply means committing to your dream, vision and goal.

Doing what it takes until it takes.

And never, ever giving up.

And.  Always remember to give thanks and praise for everything!

That’s how we do it here at Fruitfull Vine.

Peace And Blessings!

Heart-based sharing for you here at Fruitfullvine!

Don’t forget to share the love and don’t be afraid to tell me what you think about Fruitfullvine!

Settling Into A New Way Of Being!

So, what do you do when what you have been looking for begins showing up in your life?

Bam!

Stuff shows up.

It doesn’t happen in a moment.

Then again.  It does!

You got that phone call out of the blue.

You did not do anything to cause it to happen.

But you did.

Years ago.

You did something and made a thing happen.

You started a relationship which you then did not nurture.

That relationship gave you a referral.

You ran with the referral and made some other things happen.

Then you promptly moved right along.

No relationship nurturing.

But the thing you did way back then was  a good, valuable and profitable thing you did for that relationship all those years ago.

So even though they were not necessarily thinking about you, they were called to call you!

Ummm.

They were called to call you!

How about that!

Everything was already done.

All the action steps had been taken.

Done deal.

There were a few check in phone calls.

An email or two.

Transaction closed.

You don’t even have to attend closing.

You get paid!

It is even better than you getting paid.

You received the gift!

It was absolutely, without a doubt, gifted to you.

And, they gave you another referral who hired you sight unseen!

Blessings literally falling into your lap!

Settling Into A New Way Of Being!

You Don’t Have To know!

How exactly does one settle into a new way of being?

I don’t know!

That’s the answer!

I don’t have to know!

Just keep being you doing what you do.

But what is it you are doing?

I’ve shared this before.

  • Have a daily practice where you spend time with your Self and Your Higher Power.

Errrr day!

Sit in the stillness and the quiet.

Sit in the random thoughts which you cannot stop.

  • Follow this meditative/reflective practice with journaling.

Put pen to paper.

Now is the time to sort through what ever came up in your meditative reflections.

Or, this can simply be a brain dump space.

I call this Stream Of  Thought (or, Stream of Consciousness) journaling.

Just write whatever pops into your mind.

No filtering.

Nothing planned.

Nothing structured.

Just write whatever flows through you, and the pen in your hand, onto the paper you are writing on.

You never even have to read what you wrote.

There is a bonus for your if you do decide to go back and read what came through.

  • Know without one doubt, trust with everything in you, that your needs are always being met.  This gets to be easy to do because you are the living proof that every single one of your needs has already been met. And, always will be.

Why should now be any different?

  • Don’t worry about how any of it will happen.

You are always being shown the way.

You are always being guided along your path, whether you know this or not.

Life is magical when you know this.

  • Take the steps being shown to you.

Do the damn work!

It doesn’t have to make sense to you.

You may be like “what the”!

“Do what”?

Do it any way.

Remember, your thoughts are not my thoughts.  My ways are not your ways.  Said by the Creator of all things!

Do you feel like your human as fuck self knows the Creator’s thoughts?

You don’t!

What you know is all of the I don’t know stuff you have rolling around inside your mind.

But that’s okay, because you don’t have to know.

God knows how!

She is always lovingly, excitedly, guiding you to your next place and to your next Blessing.

  • Open up to, and allow yourself to be guided!

There really isn’t anything you have to do.

Just be open for what shows up.

  • Have a moment by moment practice of being thankful and appreciative.

Just allow yourself to feel good about yourself, your life, the people in your life that love you, and every Blessing that already fills your life.

Sounds simplistic?

It is.

Bottom line is, you don’t have to know shit.

You don’t have to do shit.

Give up the need to have to do all the heavy lifting.

You really can let go, and let God.

But….there will always be action you get to take.

Not have to do.

You get to do your part and take the action shown to you, to allow the magic and the Blessings in.

You will still have the negative mind chatter trying to tell you what you cannot be, do or have.

That’s why coming up with a daily practice, preferably first thing in the morning, is so important to help ground you in the truth that you are so much more than the negative stuff you have been believing about yourself.

You fortify yourself with what is good about you and your world, so you can thank Negative Nan for doing what she does to keep you safe.

And small!

Kiss Negative Nan.  Give her a hug then send her on her way.

Life is happening for you.

Not to you.

This is God working in your life.

I like the feeling of Settling Into A New Way Of Being!

Heart. Based. Sharing

Peace. Love. Blessings
