It’s a celebration, I made it another year in life. I am happy to see this as possible. The way the world is now, it’s deeply unpredictable but disruptive.
I can’t lie, it’s my favorite day of the year, in my favorite month and my second favorite season. Summer has always had special meaning to me and exploration of self.
I appreciate all the small things. I have reached to a lot of goals in the last 8 months that I wanted to treat myself to, so my birthday I had to do it right.
Thank you everyone who passes by the blog, I have been feeling the positive energy flowing through me to continue making a difference in the world.
Today, even though late… Dream Summer has began and returned. 🙂
I am a very proud man when it comes to my work. I try to innovate, I try to disrupt, I try to humble myself. I am very competitive inside and out. I just don’t show my true face outside. You can read my ambitions at face value, but you will never see the depth I think things through.
So I felt it was going to be a important year or half of year for the last remaining months of 2019. I forecasted change, I ramble a few trees and leaves, and the same things I wrote, I spoke, they came to be.
The theme for today, was I walked into a tree and the leaves fell. I got a promotion at work this year, and it was told to me, I wasn’t going to get another increase in pay. I was not fine with that. I accepted the fact that they said it, but as I go to work I can’t help just excitedly limits and bounds, and was going to figure out a way to be recognized. If the most talented person in the room and person who bought back the best results was winning for you, would you deny their worth? I felt it was a no. I remember 2016 when my general manager for a store I worked at, said to me, I was capped from a raise, or my pay would not change, and I told him at that point, what’s the point in staying.
I told him give my worse position in the store no one wants to do and I will change it around. He didn’t believe I was serious, and gave me the chance to fail. I thanked him. I went on to break records and succeeded at that role and 3 other roles in the organization and received 3 raises in that one year. We were the best store in the region and highly competitive. The difference makers was me.
I love to win, I fight to win, I fight for my team to win, I don’t stop until I win, I enjoy the struggle, I pop bubbles, Even when I stumble, I still go hard.
I wrote this to say, never give up on yourself. Trust the process, take risks, always count on yourself. I shake trees for money and growth in every single thing I do. You can too. So when they say it’s impossible, show them that it’s not.
So today, I walked into work and was welcome with a letter for a raise. My manager fought for my increase as I told him from when I got the promotion I am here to delivery a team culture and success. I will create a vision and watch his back and put him higher in other’s eyes knowing that, if he just steps aside, I will help us climb far ahead.
I got my promotion in March, and 6 months later, I turned our team’s culture as the best team in the company. Everyone wondered what was this magic sauce that was happening at the worse team in the company in those times. I help create a champion team, even with our flaws and deficiencies, I knew that with transparency, empowerment, wisdom, drive and confidence, we would overcome.
I talked it into existence as my post yesterday spoke about, but I also put in the work. #action
The challenge has began… I spoke to my mom today and revived my hopes to be the greatest and most creative in the world. I told my mom I going to be the greatest son.
Either way, writing this post while in the movies… that means I made it. POW
Running on E,
To the movies,
At 10:30,
At night,
Just because,
This is my life,
I don’t rest,
Unless I do my best,
I might do sessions after sessions,
My consistency and relentlessness,
Are my ultimate weapons.
It’s just only the beginning…
