GT knows you’ve heard this a zillion times by now but Happy New Year Brown Sistas! 2009 is going to be so great! I can just feel it in my bones. We have so much to be grateful for and work to do!
If you have a pulse then you can’t escape listmania or the buzzing of New Year’s Resolutions. But here’s a spin: Get Togetha’s Top Ten things you can do differently for your home and for yourself in the 09.
- Stop taking yourself seriously. We all evolve and grow at our own pace.
- Make something your own. Have a signature style; and rock it. I’m a fan of a big chunky ring.
- Stop comparing your life to other people’s lives. Live Ya Life!

Happy Monday Brown Sistas.
Whether you’re 18 or 88; we have all learned a thing or two about life and living. We all have had those days when we’ve either feel trapped, lost or misguided but still you made it through. Otherwise you wouldn’t be reading this post. *Wink Wink* Here are eleven things that GT knows for sure about life.
- Your attitude towards life will either make you or break you.
- Trust your intuition. It’s real and it works.
- When it comes to our bodies; men don’t care about half of our perceived flaws.
- Action speaks louder than words and that includes inaction.
- A person is only good as their level of integrity. When you find people who follow through on their word; they are rare gem.
- Everyone needs a friend that will tell you the truth; even when you don’t wanna to hear it.
- Take your job seriously; but not yourself.
- Hints do not work; ask for what you want.
- Get rid of the cheap clutter and the “I might find a use for this someday” mentality. If its gathering dust you won’t use it.
- Stuff is not your legacy. It may only be a quarter or a dollar; but is it really worth the time or the hassle?
- *You can’t measure talent cause talent is subjective. Drive, passion, persistence, focus, determination, preparation and a whole bunch of other factors determine outcome.

No shame here. And no apologies. Nan one.
- I’m not a fan of clingy or needy people.
- I think ignorance can be funny; sometimes.
- I’ll never forget you if you’ve had bad breath or body odor.
- Winning lottery millions would change my life; but I’d rather be adopted by Oprah.
- The richest people in the world are not college graduates. So sometimes I wonder why I went.
- I fear the dentist.
- I get annoyed when my friends don’t tip.
- I’m even more annoyed when people blame things on the man.
- I’m afraid of midgets and public bathrooms.
- I’m sarcastic and snarky. If I’m not saying it. I’m thinking it.
- Sometimes fear motivates me.
- Do not randomly text me.
Just putting it out there. I live and preach living well, living quality, and having fun.
But perfection is a silly unattainable goal.
GT weeps, prays, cries, crack jokes, and
still I rise. It’s called being human and it’s all you ever can be. And having quirks, imperfections, personality traits and character flaws are a part of that.
When you can admit to your own imperfections no one can use them against you. When you can learn to accept your flaws and make necessary adjustments you are well on your way to being authentic.
Raise your hand. What are some character flaws, quirks, and imperfections you can admit to?
