Its Been Awhile...

It has been awhile since I have blogged or updated.

There is no certain place to begin. I have been on a journey a new journey that was not one that I ever expected nor thought that I was ready for. I have taken steps in a new direction a better direction a direction that some people who know me say a more mature direction. I have to say I agree with them. I am officially at Vanguard university studying business I will have my Bachelors By may 2013 I am very proud this. I have a new job That I absolutely love it is a great staff and a great environment.  I have fully committed to my church and pouring into the students lives that come into it. I have an amazing mentor Adam Knowles  who has stuck by me through thick and thin.

I have started something with one of my brothers Brandon potter that everyone will be revealed to all in the next week. and last but not least  all I have found someone who has stepped up and truly taken on the brutal task of  being my significant other. She is truly a blessing and is someone who makes me very happy. Not to mention she is beautiful inside and out.

Life is a roller coaster and what I am learning is that the ups and downs come not at your time but when you least expect them. For those of you going through tough times I will be the first but certainly not the last to say that things will get better through hard work and determination and an attitude that is going for your goals and going for what you desire. The odds will change.

Have A Little Faith.

When was the last time you looked in the mirror and said you are awesome? When was the last time you siad that YOU are capable of anything your set your mind to? In todays world having a little faith in yourself is becoming more uncommon than ever. This is a blog coming from the heart. Sometimes its hard to say to yourself that your are great just for being you. with all the negativity around us even the strongest of people are breaking down to there core. But what if we became the generation that changed that? What if we are the generation who says that being confident in ourselves is the new black. Lets take the steps for not only ourselves but everyone around to be confident and to have a little faith in ourselves. Things will only get harder from here but I believe we can set the stage for a confident PASSIONATE generation. You are awesome for being you. Who you are is beautiful, do not forget that.

"Have a little faith in me."

All you need is 20 seconds of insane courage.

In our early lives we are faced with extreme challenges. Family, relationships, jobs, Being independent.
What I have found especially in todays day in age is that people are afraid to take risks. To take a chance and put themselves on the line. Now yes there will be and always  be reasons  why we shouldn't. Why we shouldn't ask the pretty girl/guy out. Why we shouldn't confront our boss and ask for the raise. To stand up for what you really want for yourself. To take an adventure that could change your life for the better.


Well after seeing the remarkable movie We Bought A Zoo.  A very valuable lesson is learned. Sometimes all you need is 20 seconds of insane courage and something amazing will come of it. Taking risks is not something we are all good at and it is not something we are born with. It is something we all have to do to to make our mark on this planet!  To really live our lives. 20 seconds is all you need.


Being scared is apart of life. Standing up for yourself and taking risks is a way to beat those fears.
