There is nothing wrong with being alone as you go forward in life. Especially if you are dealing with challenges. A lot of people think that a relationship can solve your problems. It won't - in fact it could complicate your problems
When you are alone you have an opportunity to learn, grow and become your best self. When this happens you will be ready for the relationship you have been longing for and it will happen.
Go out and conquer your day.

Do you know who the most important person in your life should be? It should be YOU. I am not talking about you being a narcissist or being very selfish. There are plenty of those. I am talking about prioritizing yourself and making yourself the priority and there comes a point when you have to become selfish when it comes to your health and wellness. If you don't then everything else suffers. 
If you are struggling right now do you really think you are bringing your best self into your relationships? To the job? To your friends? Let me give you a hint. You're not.
You come first - always. Then you can work on everything and everyone else.
Go out and conquer your day.
Solo episode coming this week.

Criminal Justice Evolution Podcast: Microcast Monday - Failures are your building blocks

Hello everyone and welcome back to Microcast Monday. Shorts bursts of inspiration and motivation to get you started on the right track with your week.
Thank you for serving and protecting. Remember you are honored, cherished and loved. Keep up the good work.
I struggled. I was in a dark place for a long time.

Failure happens to us all. It comes in all shapes and sizes and its professional and personal. But, failure is often needed on the journey to success. Ask any successful person and I would bet all of them would say they failed numerous times before hitting success. That is how success works. 
Don't fear failure - embrace it for what it is. A learning and growing opportunity. 
Go forth and conquer your week.

Criminal Justice Evolution Podcast: Learn To Forgive

Hello everyone and welcome back to Microcast Monday. Short bursts of inspiration and motivation to get you started on your week. If you love the show please share with your family and friends. 
Thank you for doing what you do. It's a very difficult environment but you serve everyday with distinction and honor. Remember you are honored, cherished and loved. Keep up the good work.
I struggled. I was in a dark place for a long time. I was in pain, and I masked it with alcohol.  I was contemplating hurting myself.  I finally decided to reach out and ask for help, and I am grateful I did. FHE Health and The Shatterproof Program saved my life.

https://www.cjevolution.com/shatterproof/
For a long time I was angry. I was bitter and I blamed people for the spot in life I was in. After therapy I started to forgive the people that I believe had wronged me over the years. At first, it was very difficult but over time I started to feel better. I felt a weight lifted from me and I started to become more happy and content. 
If you are holding on to resentment and anger against someone I encourage you to forgive them. You don't have to verbally say this to them if you don't want to, but you can say it to your heart. Your mental health and wellness is dependent on this and you can do it.
Go out and have a good week and stay tuned for more great guests on the CJEvolution Podcast.

I want the people who are struggling right now to listen to me for a minute. Do you really believe the things you are telling people when you say you are doing good? Are you really? Because the people that know you well probably know that something is up. I did that all the time when I was struggling. 
Chances are the only person that believes that is you. I know you are tired of struggling and facing your challenges. That is why you need to step forward and ask for help. 
The only person that is standing in your way is you.
Make that call.

I believe everything happens for a reason. The older I get the more I realize that there no coincidences. The Universe puts opportunities and obstacles in our paths. It's up to us on the choices we make.
You might be thinking "my life is a mess". I am sorry if it is, but remember that this is happening for a reason. It could be to make you stronger. To make you realize that you shouldn't make the same mistake in the future. 
A multitude of things, but it is for a reason.
 
Stay tuned for a great guest this week. Shilo Harris.
