Be Productive

/ Nicole Cherise / Leave a comment

Happy Monday friends!

For many, Monday symbolizes the start of the work week. We have to hustle and bustle to meet deadlines etc.. however, sometimes the Monday blues brings us into a slump. We may feel lazy and unaccomplished.

I, too, get into a slump and often feel overwhelmed. I try to remind myself that I’m not perfect and if I at least try to complete something for the day, then I was productive.

As a MS patient, getting out of the bed can be a challenging task. Some days I truly run out of spoons (spoon theory) because I don’t have the energy. Therefore, I try to keep a positive attitude and do the best that I can.

That’s all we can do. Try to conquer a goal for the day. That can be smiling when someone gives a good morning greeting, take a walk for break, exercise, begin the starting steps to owning your business, and more! Whatever it is and what ever it takes, just try.

I hope this helps someone. Remember, we are in this life journey together. There are others who feel just like you do. I’m here.

Don’t let them put fear in your heart

/ Nicole Cherise / 2 Comments

Hi friends

I know we live during a time that bullying and people in superior roles can do a lot of intimidating to those they feel are beneath them. However, We have to continue to stand our ground while being respectful.

One thing that I’m learning, is that life is difficult and people will try to make your life difficult as well. We have to choose PEACE over anything. I don’t know about you guys but when there is no peace in my heart, I do not function well nor do I give any task my best performance. It’s just added baggage that I can’t deal with.

I remember a time that my heart would race rapidly whenever I had to speak to someone in a role superior than myself. It was until I developed my own relationship with the Lord and a lot of those fears dwindled down. In a similar post, I realized that people are people but God is God. God is the only One to Fear.

If this is hard for you, please take a breather. Remember, people have to breathe, eat, and sleep just like You. They bleed, experience heartache just like You. Regardless of the amount of money that make or where they live, we are all have a life journey and Fear isn’t an Option.

Fight against the insecurities

Yes, it’s time to get All the way over ourselves. Ladies, compliment one another. Yes, there is another attractive woman in the same room with you. Y’all both are fly queens, remember that. Fellas, you Do have money and so does the next man, concern yourself with only your pockets. Maybe you could network and build empires for your community. Because we know better we can do better!

Pointing at them is easy

/ Nicole Cherise / Leave a comment

If we all sat down together, you would hear many stories of triumphs and trials. We would discuss love and hate that we receive from others. We also could discuss our setbacks and who is the blame. How many can point at them self and say “I’m the issue too”?

With our failures and shortcomings, it’s so easy to point the finger and blame others. Many of us don’t take accountability for our part in any of our issues. When this happens, we are pretending to be perfect and act as if we are not human. We are bound to mess up, we will disappoint everyone including Ourselves.

Let’s be accountable for our words and actions. Recognize the faults they we have made. Then Learn and grow from it. After a while, if you continue to run into the same type of situations, no one will believe your “poor me” attitude or monologue. Remember friends, love and respect starts from within.

Dear Nik,

The obstacles are here currently but they won’t stay. Please do the following:

Keep working hard, Continue to keep the family first, and forgive yourself.

Nicole Cherise will prosper, and you will be student loan debt free!

Keep your chin up and shoulders back, because your strut is back! No more dragging or limping your left leg. You Are a MS Survivor.

I know it may not seem like it but with God this is already done. Trust me.

Love Always,

Future You ♥️ (Dr. Nicole Cherise)

To overcome failure

/ Nicole Cherise / 3 Comments

It happens. We didn’t make the goal or missed the opportunity. For some, this is where depression can set in, this is when we “settle” or become resentful towards others.

We have to remember the late Aaliyah’s song “Try it Again”.

We have our paths and have to learn to use the obstacles as motivation. Continue to be ambitious. This isn’t easy but we are in this together friends! Let’s work!

Thanks so much for reading!

Motivational Monday edition: Rise Up!

/ Nicole Cherise / Leave a comment

Hi friends!

Here we are again, the weekend has gone by fast and some of us still have crust in the corner of our eyes lol. Happy Monday!

This is a quick post about the importance to Rise up.

Our Past continues to haunt us, we are continuing toxic friendships, relationships and jobs. At some point we have to say enough is enough and yearn for more. Not everyone will understand this process and that’s ok. However, this is needed in order for true Happiness to shine through.

We will see that silver lining, we will see the rainbows that come after the storms. However, it starts with us. One step at a time. One day at a time ♥️. I hope this post can lighten your load of the Monday blues!

Thank you for reading!
