Reaching Your Dreams and Vision Rule # 3

Rule number is 3 is no looking back. Focusing on past failure, hurt, pain and confusion can create a fear and prevent movement. Looking at the past can help or it can hinder. So, if you must look back glance at the negative and stare at your past victories. Please do not do the other way around. Better yet look to God where our strength comes from.

Do not allow your failures to stop you from dreaming and reaching your vision. When it is God's will you could fail 1,000,000 times and it is the 1,000,001 you will be successful. Do not give up or give in. Remember your future is always greater than your past. Holding on to something lesser when you have something greater in front of you is insane. 2010 live with God and keep your mind on Christ and He will keep it in perfect peace and fixed on your future not the past.

How To Reach Your Dreams & Goals -- Rule Number 2

Rule Number 2

Reach out to people who are doing what you would like to do. Case and point when I wanted to do a documentary on Black on Black crime I put myself amongst people who did what I wanted to do. My original idea for the film was to take an historical perspective on African American crime and the black church.

When my wheels began to spin I contacted film festivals to volunteer. I volunteered at the Hampton Film Festival in the Fall of 2004. The environment of the film festival made me want to be in a film festival and if all goes well the dream will be realized in the Winter/Spring of 2010. How did I do that? First you must go where you want to be to make sure that is truly in your heart and God's plans. Once you have checked it out made some connections and learned some information you are on your way. Please do not forget rule number one pray first and than put forth the work. No one can do it for you. The word of God states faith without work is dead. So, you must have the faith and guidance but you must put in the work. Sometimes the work maybe for free and that is okay because it is still WORK!!!!

Rule Number 3 Coming Real Soon

How To Reach Your Dreams & Goals-- Rule Number One

Having faith in God and leaning on Jesus always works for me. When I started on this road of film making I thought if I had an idea and the passion to bring it to life it would happen. At times I forgot to pray or better yet I thought I did not need to pray and created plans on my own. Some of those plans included asking friends and family to help out with the project because money was low. Out of the 500 plus friends and family I have on facebook only two came through. Now with that said many replied and stated they would but only two actually did. I was disappointed and my feelings were crashed because I banked on people coming through. Never once did I take my need to God; instead I took it to man and they failed. Not enough money to finish the film and the feeling of disappointment had me overwhelmed. When I became still and went back to the Father through Christ Jesus all of my needs were met. The lack of money from man created an opportunity for God. Sometimes a setback occurs because we never go to God first and we totally relay on man. When I put my trust in God and told Jesus about my disappointments and frustrations the tears stopped and Gods blessings began.

If you want to live out your dreams rule number one take it to the Lord in prayer. You do not need to make any moves, you must ask God for guidance and wisdom to progress. Do not get me wrong I still fall short in this area but little by little and step by step I am learning and praising my God because my help comes from the Lord.

Oh how I love Jesus because He first loved me. If you want the desires of your heart and if you want your dreams to be reality take a step back and fall on your knees and ask Jesus to direct and guide your steps and mind.

Stay Tuned For Rule Number 2 Coming Soon

Peace, Comfort and Blessings

I GOT MAIL

Yesterday, my aunt called and said she ordered me a digital camcorder and it is coming in the mail. I really needed that because I can record my workshops and the festivals I will be going to. My day was so great because I was excited and filled with anticipation because of my gift coming in the mail.

After work I realized I am happy over what my aunt said because I trust that it will come in the mail. So, I questioned why am I not that excited when I am going through a rough patch. God said He would never leave or forsake. So, why when I go through trouble I am not excited like its coming in the mail. WHY NOT?

Jesus is my provider, He said I will have life more abundantly according to His riches in glory. He said He will give me the desires of my heart. He said He will make my enemy my footstool. He said I have victory in HIM. That's what JESUS said. So, presently I am working on getting that same excitement in all things because when God has your back you will always walk in victory. I am highly expecting God's blessings, God's provision, God's peace, God's Healing and God's comfort. I GOT MAIL!!!!

I am very excited about what the Lord is going to do with Mad Believer. I know He will open doors that no man could open and open hearts to open the doors. I am excited about helping people grow better in grief and not bitter. The comfort Jesus Holy Spirit gave me is so great I can not and will not keep it to myself. Highly expecting great things in the months and years to come. I WILL GET MAIL!!!!!!!!!!!

Love You All,
