Hey Readers, Im back with a brand new post to share with you all. This post I want to share and touch base on "The Power of Leveling Up."
Now, when when I say Leveling up I don't mean just financially or materialistically, I mean really understanding the power you have in side and enhancing it to benefit yourself in the most delicate situations, personal or spiritual life or career.
Let me tell you what Im learning on my journey of Leveling Up. So before becoming an full time entrepreneur I was a teacher who modeled on the side. I was content with my everyday life and never really pursued to push myself further because I believed my purpose in life was to teach. I taught for 17 years before Covid, and honestly didn't know anything else but that. I tried to apply for many other jobs but for some reason or another I never was hired so I always went back to my students.
Modeling was something I did to bring in a bit of extra income, network and to stay relevant. Modeling also was an outlet to show my true personality outside of being a teacher. I enjoyed events, photoshoots, and all the glamorous things that came with it but I still didn't push myself like should've.
I had many people I trusted in the industry push me, help guide me and some even booked me gigs and tried to make me see my own potential. It was also those who I gave my all to who simply used me and then left me with nothing, or that is what it seemed to be to me at that time. It was like all my hard work In modeling, magazines, photoshoots was all a waste of time because I wasn't this big super model who was a household name or even with teaching I felt like I should've went and got my degree but never did.
So why did I waste so much time on pursing these career choices only to look back and feel like I didn't accomplish anything?
Well, after a lot of self examination I realized I was lazy and lacked the motivation to have and want more. It took me awhile to actually admit to myself, and it also hurt to realize how I was so content in life that I thought getting a degree was pointless or giving people control over my modeling projects was less work for me and more work for them.
Boy was I looking at life wrong. I was giving so much of my life to other people I didn't know what path I was on. I was pulled so many ways and never questioned anything and found myself with no voice. It was in that moment I begin pulling myself back together and asking questions some people in my life didn't really enjoy it because they were realizing "Oh she's waking up now" and I absolutely was. I wanted control over my life again even if it meant losing people.
Lets fast forward a bit, the next few years I stopped modeling, focused on being the best teacher, reconnected my faith, broke myself completely down, fought through depression and anxiety, became a Mother, wrote my first Children's book "Little Zee's Adventure", moved back to my hometown (ehh) was back with my family, Created my own company CNU Visions, gave back to the community, Created a jewelry line amongst other endeavors on the other hand I still found myself completely unhappy.
Why was I so unhappy with life still? I was doing what I loved, accomplishing goals on my own, was surrounded with family, a beautiful daughter what more did I need right.
Well I now realize what I needed, and that was to truly be me, love me, believe in me and stop allowing doubt to take me out of my own race. I now understood it was time for me to level up Mentally, Emotionally, Financially and Spiritually so I can go after and truly learn and be happy on my path.
Now fast forward to pre covid. I found myself jobless after my department shut down, bank accounts low and I felt completely helpless. Though I am now transparent and happy in life I don't mind sharing I turned to Adult Paid sites to bring in income until I figured out the next step.
Was joining the Adult industry my first choice no, however it brought in the money to provide and the opportunity invest in all the things I ever wanted to do. I call it a blessing and a curse because Lords knows I didn't want to go that route but we all have a testimony right?
Nevertheless, after going through years of lacking self worth and knowledge I turned it around by dusting off those closed doors in my brain and began opening them up and utilizing and applying them in my everyday life. My Power I needed to level up was using my knowledge and resources to build a solid team around me that not only wants to win in life but wants to see me win as well, and not just for financial gain or clout.
I am now starting my own business, creating more literature and working on staying an entrepreneur through other endeavors so realizing, Knowledge, Research, Work and Faith is the 4 keys to me leveling up.
Without the thirst for knowledge and always wanting to learn someone could always get over on you, but by also doing the Research or Groundwork you'll be building a path of enlightenment. Putting 100% Work behind your research and knowledge forms results and without Faith all your works are dead, because you cannot simply do it alone and be happy.
I encourage you all to Find and tap into your Power within so you can began taking your life to Your Next Level Up. Don't waste time thinking what wrong can happen when so much right can be gained. Stop being content with where you at and really search for more, start living more. I promise you'll see so much more out of life you couldn't see before.
Even if you're happy with all you have now, still reach within and find another purpose or life you can change.
Thank you for reading a small glimpse of my testimony and journey to leveling up and finding my Power, I hope I encouraged you in one way or another. Please take a moment to like, share or comment as it helps me next topic.
With Love and Light
