Welcome to 2021!!  We made it!!! 

Let's go into 2021 with Intention! What's your ONE WORD? 

Write it down

Promise to your self

Vision statement 

What do u mean I need to give up my opportunity that I’ve worked years to finally get to? What do u mean start a podcast???

What in the world do I talk about? What? A group coaching program?  

What in the world? How? Who??? 

Ok but if it’s him you say yes and u just go

The decade of pey- of the word

I don’t believe the universe makes it happen

I believe God blesses and favors his children in this universe and our

words are the life and death- the power of our tongue

 

Power to shift the world around you, because spoken words create...

much like when God spoke creation happened. Think about this...

when I say “ have a great day” ...it’s passive. It implies that having the great day,

depends on whether the day is great. It gives the day the power. 

 

But when I say MAKE it a great day, it implies that you are active- YOU are

doing something to make it Happen.  It changes the perspective because now

it’s empowered YOU to make it a great day versus wait on the day or allow the

day or others or circumstances in your day to decide whether it’s gonna be great or not.

It shifts the responsibility to you. For you to make choices to act, perceive, receive, &

respond in a way that will keep you aligned with the goal (which is to make it a great day,

or choose act or respond in ways that are not in alignment with making it a great day).

 Easy? No. Not always, but doable? Yes. Do you have to make different choices than

you would if you were just having something instead of making something? Yep. when

I say I’m having chicken salad for dinner that creates a different image in your head than

 I’m making chicken salad. You may ask me, oh where are you getting it? Versus if I’m making it,

 you immediately understand that I’m taking the action. You see not only do the words you

say matter to you , but they matter to others around you. Words are used to create the

outcomes we want & can be used to tear down. Our words have power. Everything comes

 from words. The world was created by the words “let there be”.... & our world has been

 divided & torn up by words... 

 

Sticks & stones can break my bones but words can never hurt me? I call complete Bull on

 that. That’s such a lie. There were words spoken to me & about me that still today I fight against.

Words like “fatty fatty 2 by 4, you can’t fit through the bathroom door”. To say those words, along

with the ugly hateful words I said to myself when I was younger, over  & over...

became thoughts... perseveration thoughts that crept up every time I looked into the mirror-

so overpowering that I even started to see something in the mirror that was NOT there.

I started to see the words in the mirror in the form of an ugly “fat” “obese” “messy” “unloveable” girl

. At one point I weighed 98 lbs & I literally & physically saw a 200 lb girl in the mirror.

I did not regularly take pictures & I remember this one time, sophomore year,

I saw a picture someone had printed out of us playing basketball- this skinny little girl

with a French braid, pink shorts, and a flowered shirt. She was tiny. Cute. Y’all! It was me!

 I didn’t even believe it! I remember looking in the mirror & what I saw was not that girl in

the picture. It was the the image I had created in my head that started with words that

had been spoken to me that I had started to believe so much that it changed the way I

physically saw the world...myself. 

 

So I said all that to say- your words, my words... matter. the change of that one word,

 make versus have...can shift the entire focus or perspective and outcomes in either

 scenario could be different. Our words matter. 

 

Make a conscious choice today to choose words that create life, love, joy, success,

 

belief in what’s good... 

 

So many of you have told me your words for 2021... vision, passion, peace, exchange,

believe, rest, & I pray that each of those words for you guide you & help you achieve all the

things you & your family deserve this year! I pray it changes the outcomes for you. 

 

So... my word for 2021... duh duh duh dahhhh!!! BECOME. Become the woman God has

 intended me to be. In all areas of my life. Become a better, more present, more intentional

mother. Become the proverbs 31 wife. Become the leader I’ve been called to be. Become the

 woman who leaves a legacy worthy to be praised. Become the business owner. Become the

one who loves hard. Become the one who can forgive with ease. Become the light in dark

situations. Become the cheerleader & encourager for those around me. 

 

You know my pastor has had me & 100s of women on this unbecoming journey.

Maybe the journey isn’t so much about becoming something as it is about unbecoming

 everything that really isn’t you, so that you can become who you were intended to be in

 the first place. She said that when she got this vision of what this movement was/is...

God said to her, I know who you are, but not who you are not. Gods asking me the opposite now-

 I know who you are not, but not who you are - not because HE doesn’t know who I am,

but because I need to start now becoming who I am as he’s called me-as he’s intended

 for me to be... I’ve been on this journey of unbecoming the things I’m not, long enough.

It’s time to become. There are places I’ve just sat back & said I’m unbecoming...

well sister it’s time to become... you can unbecome but you need to be becoming too.

 

If you want to hear more about the unbecomingme movement by Pastor Stephanie Harrison,

Take a look here at this link! http://unbecomingme.com/   

 

I will always continue to unbecome those things that I’m not... perfectionism-

undoing those critical words I believed for so long creating this monster that took

 hold of me for so many years... being able to recognize when those lies creep

up & stopping those thoughts when they arise by speaking & thinking words

 that are in alignment with the truth. 

Unbecoming those words that caused me to see myself in the mirror & be as me to see

myself as God sees me in the spirit instead- that’s work of intentionally repeating the

words of truth verses lies I had heard. Other things, such as unbecoming the need to

please people at the cost of not being true to what I’m being called to do, might be

completely accomplished. Or at least for right now. But it’s a process. It’s a journey.

With roads ahead, sideways, & turnabouts. 

 

But during this process, during this journey, there also has to be action that moves

you toward the becoming. You unbecome to become. You grow & learn every day to

 become. So the word for me, as I got it finally & clearly yesterday while I was in the

shower saying God what is it???

 

Become. Daughter, become. 

 

Now when I see that word, plastered everywhere for the next year,

 I will be moved to DO. To ACT. To be responsible & accountable to

assess situations asking myself- is thing I’m about to say yes to gonna

help me become the “blank” I need to be in that area or areas of my life?

Did my words & actions & response to my husband just reflect that woman

I’m saying I’m trying to become? 

 

It helps to direct my thoughts, my reflection, my prayer, which then direct my actions. 

 

Ladies! That’s my word! If you have t chosen your word fir this year, it’s never too late!

Choose your word, & write it down! Put it everywhere! In your car, on your nightstand,

on the screensaver of your phone, on your mirror... you want some sisters to help you

in your accountability?? Some encouragement? Write it down in the review of this podcast

Group coaching program!! I’d love to hear what YOU would find valuable in

a small intimate group setting in this walk- this journey we will embark upon together.

Finally once you have your word, I’m going to suggest you take it one step further.

Write out your vision statement for 2021. 

 

The Bible says to write the vision & make it plain. Our words matter. Write it down-

create a vision board. If you need a little quick guidance take my wholly made life

quick assessment! 6 simple questions just to get your thoughts flowing for each area of your life. 

Vision for your life in all area- how much do u wanna make? What’s your marriage like,

what kind of mother are u? How and when r u hearing form god?

 Just write down 2-3 statements of change/growth you want to see in each

of the areas in your life, & read it every day. 

 

If you’re bold enough, claim your vision & make it public!!
