Hay Friend,


Waddup doe! I won’t lie to you, being an entrepreneur/ content creator is hard work. A couple of months ago, I almost threw in the towel on this whole thing. I was tired of not seeing the results I believe I deserved for the amount of work I put in. I felt like I had been sowing into the lives of others but not getting much back in return. I made a whole podcast about it, explaining the deets. I was looking through my journal today and realized I was declining almost 2 weeks before I had my breaking point. If I am honest, I have had this feeling for a while. I “throw a fit”, recuperate, come back and get back to work in 1-3 days. But for some reason, this time, I couldn’t shake it. Weeks went by and I still felt the same.


A trip to Boston and New York reminded me of the joy of life. I got to see William Murphy preach. I got history with the song  Praise Is What I Do so that was a big deal (listen to this and I swear chains will be broken). I got to see my friends’ growth in their new cities. I celebrate their successes. Celebrated the days they didn’t give up when they could have. Saw how much they have grown since they have been gone.  But what continues to amaze me is the amount of faith everyone has in me. Even in the midst of my pain, I have still been able to encourage others.

There is Fruit On Your Tree


Through my actions, others are propelled to take steps in their own lives. My friends were hyping me up to errbody and they mama. When my friend is at work and she is in a less than comfortable situation, she actually asks herself, what would Dammy do? Ah ah, am I that bold?

I am always amazed because I don’t see what they see. But, I guess it does not matter. Through my work, seeds have been planted. What this platform has set out to do, is being done, despite my feelings.


I was complaining during prayer just a couple days ago that I don’t feel this is worth it. The holy spirit so gently whispered back, just because its what it feels like, does not mean its the reality. Feelings vs. Reality are two different things.

I get to see the fruit of my labor. Even if it’s not the fruit I think I am looking for, it is still beautiful fruit. I say this to say, don’t diss your small beginnings. Don’t diss your seeds. They are seeds, that will grow and reap a harvest. Your work means something, even if you feel it doesn’t mean anything. Continue sowing into the lives of others and into yourself, in due time there is a harvest to reap with your name on it.  

What has God given you but you feel it has little worth? How will you change your perspective to see the value of what you have to offer?
