There has been light shed on an issue that this country has had for hundreds of years now. The issue has never been fixed. There has been progress made, but still not even anywhere close to being fixed. This problem I’m referring to is systemic racism. We, collectively have to do more. This is not a black issue anymore. This is a humanity issue. FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA: Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/UrgencyPodcast/?hl=en Host Instagram:...

The Chinese bamboo tree takes fives yeas to grow. They have to water and fertilize the ground everyday. It doesn’t break the ground until the fifth year. But once it breaks through the ground, within five weeks, it grows 90 feet tall. But the question is, downs it grow 90 feet in five weeks or five years. You have to keep on watering your goals. Water your vision, no matter who says anything to you. You have to believe in your abilities, your ideas, your talents, your strengths. You have to...

How have your "New Year's Resolutions" been going? Have your kept your word to yourself? Have you held yourself accountable? There is a good chance the answers to those questions are not positive. I get it. I have been there, done that. We did not mess up, we chose to be weak when it came to keeping our word to ourselves about what we wanted to do, how we wanted to improve. It is a simple choice to not be weak when we are tested, we just make it complicated in our head. Change will last if...

Derek Jeter said, “There may be people who have more talent than you, but there is no excuse for anyone to work harder than you do. At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter if you believe in talent or not. But hard work, everything in your life is a result of that. Everything in your life is s a result of hard work or a lack there of. Life requires you put in the work. Goals require hard work. Nothing worth having comes easy. It takes hours, days, months, years of hard work. No one said...

Excuses, yes, we all make them. The blame game, yes, we have all played it. Blaming and making excuses are holding you back, more than you may realize. You are taking the easy way out. It's time to hold ourselves accountable and realize that only we are preventing ourselves from maximizing our potential. Once we drop the excuses, we will start to rise above and conquer. In this episode, I take you through several excuses I have made in my life, some alternatives you could say instead of those...

Facebook only started in 2004, YouTube in 2005, and Instagram only started in October 2010. These are the top three social media sites and billions of people engage on those sites daily.

Are you just fronting and being fake? Is there any substance in what you post? Are you putting good vibes out there? Not...

DISCIPLINE! That’s the one thing standing in your way of achieving everything you dream of and desire. That’s the only thing! But let me tell you, there is nothing easy, funny, or cute about discipline. Not everyone is willing to do what it takes to improve. We all have it within us, but most people choose comfort. It’s the little things done on a daily basis that will bring those dreams and desires to life. Have a listen. Have a listen if you are tired of talking yourself out of...

The mind we each have is so powerful. More powerful than we tend to realize. Our mind has to power to help us become the most successful version of ourselves, or it can steer us for a life that is well below average and quite miserable. The conversations we have with ourselves each day determine where we end up in life and how our life turns out. If we cannot control our mind to stop taking the easy road, to give up, to quit when something gets hard, then we will never reach our version of...

Times are changing. Years ago, college or formal education was a necessity if you wanted a better life. But times are changing, and the fact that you need a college degree is also changing.

Love your comfort zone? You and me both. Who doesn't? But comfort is the thing holding us back from achieving our dreams and goals. In comfort, it is easy to lose sight of where you want to be long term. Comfort causes us to make excuses. But being intentionally uncomfortable, we will find growth. Outside of our comfort zone is where we grow, and consistent growth leads to our dreams and goals. Intro Music: "God's Whisper" by Raury (No Copyright...
