YOU CAN'T DESTROY ME.



Recently I've been going through a lot of changes in my life. However the road to redemption has not been an easy one. I have lost loved ones, distanced myself from friends, and I have embarked on a new career pathway. But my work is not finished yet and I have to keep grinding because the haters never take a day off neither can I. Throughout my life I had consistently been told that I could not achieve something, that I wasn't good enough. I had people that were close to me time and time again let me down, and kick me when I was at my lowest.

But just like the sun I have RISEN, I have climbed that mountain, cross that mighty river, and looked myself in the mirror until I liked what I saw looking back at me! I was never the smartest in class, never the best athlete, never the richest...matter of fact I was placed in special education, I got cut from the basketball team in 10th grade, and four years ago I was homeless.

I promise you I had every excuse to quit, give up, and blame other people and for a while I did. But it doesn't matter how many times you fall! only how many times your willing to get back up! Chinese proverb Fall Down Seven Stand Up Eight! I didn't have privilege or a safety net to fall back on to. All I had was My Passion  My Hunger and My Drive.

I just refused to feel sorry for myself, I refused to complain, I refuse to let the judgement of other affect how I viewed myself and I promised myself I will get the last laugh, I will have the last say, I will CHOOSE my fate and I choose to be Relentless, Unstoppable, I chose to be better than good but GREAT! 

So for all those people that doubted me, that labeled me, that laughed at me, I want to thank you because you are equally responsible for my success. And when the load was too heavy and I wanted to give in I asked God for a stronger back so I could prove you wrong. And if you think my haters are mad now wait til they see me next year or in 5 years.

I'm grinding, I'm driven , and I'm more focus then I've ever been because I'm past the haters and I'm Legacy Driven now. So if your going through some hard times, and your not sure about anythings, anyone or even how your going to get through today just know that "TOUGH TIMES DON'T LAST TOUGH PEOPLE DO" there's a champion deep inside of you. That will not let you give up on yourself, that is not satisfied with your current situation and has been waiting to fight, ready to fight, take back control of your life and move on to Greatness! Mediocrity ends here!
