A little birdy told me

A little birdy told me...
  • You are lovable
  • You are kind
  • You are smart
  • You are capable
  • You are wise
  • You are worthy
  • You are needed
  • You are loved
  • You matter

These simple words mean so much at the most difficult times. I recently contracted with a company that I had to discontinue services. The company was great. It was the upper management that didn't appreciate its employees.

Everyday was a beating session. Why can't you...?

I began to think about the morale of the company, employees, and environment. As an entrepreneur I have the luxury of setting my own hours, expectations, and limits. Enough was enough! I was there to change the company for the better. However, I didn't feel comfortable working in the environment.

How can I be proud of my work when no one is actually implementing what was taught? I truly didn't feel comfortable continuing putting my name on the contracts.

To everyone who don't hear it often from work or home. A little birdy told me...


Be inspired,

I have mad respect for you choosing your own moral values OVER financial gain.
Somebody recently offered to compensate me generously for a photography project. But due to the nature of the project, and my own morals, I chose to DECLINE the money. And believe me,I could use some extra cash. In some cases , morality takes precedence in my decisions even if it means potential loss of extra income.
