Hello, 2018! I’m so excited about this New Year and I pray you are too! 2017 was a year of growth for me and new beginnings for me! I was able to connect with some phenomenal Queens who are doing great things! I was also challenged in many areas where I could have lost my mind but God! In this New Year while everyone is declaring all the changes they are going to make I honestly just want to see continued growth in every area of my life. I’m allowing God to crown me daily so I can think better. Everything we do begins with a thought and that thought becomes a spoken word followed by an action. I want to make sure my thoughts are always directing me to into the life I desire to live. You can’t have a new you without a new mindset. I’m allowing God to transform my thinking with his word and getting more connected to him. I wanted to share three ways you can create a new mindset and not just for this year but for you to continue to be the Queen God called you to be.
The way we can connect ourselves to the source is to build a relationship with him and pray about everything we do. Prayer is our connection to God and I’m making sure I stay prayerful every day. I do not desire to make any more wrong decisions and I’m focused on allowing God to order my steps but he can’t if I don’t invite him into my life and allow him to. We have unlimited access to God and I plan to maximize my time with him. Prayer doesn’t have to be difficult or hours long. Prayer is communication with God so just talk to him. Literally, open your mouth and invite him into your life and your affairs and he will direct your paths.
Who you give access to speak to your life will influence what you say. If you’re around people who complain, have pity parties and never take accountability for their actions you will start doing the same. Your crew matters so make sure you’re around people who inspire you to become a better you. Your crew should be able to empower you and stretch you to think better of yourself. You need someone who will tell you when you’re slipping and not honoring your crown. Queens support Queens so get you a crew who will support you and love you through it all.
Many of us are declaring what we're going to do different this year and that’s great but you’ve got to be disciplined in order to see the changes you really wish to see. You have to train your mind to always think like royalty. You’ve got to do whatever it takes to renew your mind daily. Every day is a chance to grow but you have to make it a priority in your life. We are no longer just declaring a change but we are going to take action to see the change. So if you have to get up early or go to bed late do it. If you have to stop spending so you can save for the dream house do it! If you have to work out daily and change your eating habits do it! Discipline will help you accomplish the goals you set.
I want to see every Queen win! I’m willing to do whatever it takes to see a change in my life. My word for 2018 is freedom! I want freedom in every area of my life and I’m determined to see it! I know it can be difficult trying to start this journey alone and that’s why I created The Throne Room an online community for Queens to be encouraged, empowered and equipped to let go of guilt and shame and reclaim their crowns! It’s time to see something different this year!It's time for Queens to take over the throne! It’s a New Year and I’ve got a new mindset! I’ve picked up my crown and nothing can stop me now!
Always wear your crown!
