A 30th birthday is a milestone that can be a time to reflect on the past and look forward to the future. It's often seen as a turning point in a person's life, marking the end of youth and the beginning of adulthood. Accomplishments thus far? Yes, I did acquire some material things and progress in my career, and I sincerely thank God for everything. In the meantime, I'm more picky about the knowledge and development I've acquired over time and the next step. These are my top ten: ● Seeking to reason in an entirely objective manner. ● Learning to listen more intently and consider topics carefully before speaking. ● Better and improved financial management. ● Staying positive always. ● Understanding when to give up on a task for good. ● Realizing that, despite working hard, you should prioritize investing in your health and well-being. ● Spirituality is individualized, and whatever you hear from outside sources should only serve as guidance rather than a defining characteristic. Proceed with prudence. ? The ability to say "no" and define priorities. ● While patience is vital, understanding when to take action is even more crucial. ●Understanding the criticality of decision-making process.

Today marks my 31st birthday ?? Any advice? 30 was a milestone that felt monumental, yet 31 resonates differently- it feels old ?? but seriously, it feels like I am somewhere between being old enough to have made mistakes but young enough to have the chance to recover. Here are some cool facts about the number 31. - It’s a prime number (a rarity in itself for the math enthusiast out there) - Most calendar months have 31 days (perhaps a subtle reminder that even in the every day, there is structure and rhythm) - Biblically, Numbers 31 is a story of victory, health and prosperity, according to their faithfulness to God’s command - The number 31 itself is associated with creativity, change and progress I know age is just a number, but I feel the overwhelming pull towards balance in this season. Somehow balancing normalcy with jumping into the unknown. So this year, I'm excited to focus on merging the success of my hard work with a deeper purpose—the bigger picture. Careers and titles are secondary to the true reason behind what I do. After all, what’s the point of what some might call success if it isn’t used to impact those around me for the greater good and to better the lives of others? So here’s to a year of balance, growth and change!

In 2024, my nephew graduated from high school. It feels like yesterday he was running around the yard, full of energy and questions about the world. Now he’s standing taller than I am, figuratively and literally—a young man ready to take on whatever comes next. Watching him cross that stage was not just a proud moment for our family. It was more than that, It was a pause. A realization of how quickly life moves. How much we change, and how the milestones we celebrate aren’t just theirs they’re ours too. Life doesn’t stop. It doesn’t ask if you’re ready for it to move forward. Children grow up. Seasons change. We progress in our lives. And we blink through moments that will someday feel monumental. Our brains are so hard-wired that the world loves a “success story.” We talk about achievements like they’re checkpoints in a race. Graduations, promotions, new ventures. But in my opinion, the real growth is not in the moment you step on stage or sign the dotted line. It’s in the messy, quiet, unremarkable years leading up to it and everything happened in between. We often gloss over those moments in our own lives and in the lives of those we love. We are so focused on chasing what’s next that we forget to stop and recognize what’s happening right now. So, here’s a question worth asking If today were a snapshot of your life, would you be proud of how you spent it? Not in terms of goals or accomplishments, but in the moments you gave to the people who matter. The effort you put into being present. The care you invested in your relationships. Because at the end of the day, it’s not the milestones that make life meaningful. It’s the time we spend with the ones we love. Be in the moment. Celebrate the small things and big things alike. Because these moments with your loved ones matter more than any success story ever will.

The Great Designation Chase – #Part2: The Enlightenment of the Donkey After years of chasing titles, promotions, and that elusive “Senior” tag, I came across a story that hit close to home. A story about… a donkey. Now, this wasn’t just any donkey; this one had the privilege of carrying idols of gods on its back during a grand prayer procession. As it walked through villages, people bowed in reverence, and the donkey thought, “Wow! Look at all the respect I command!” With every bowed head, its pride swelled. Surely, this wasn’t just because of the idols, but it had to be because of it, the mighty donkey. But as soon as the idols were removed, and it was sent back to carry sacks of vegetables, no one paid it any mind. In fact, the donkey’s cries to reclaim attention only irritated everyone around, leading to a less-than-glamorous end to its day. And that’s when it dawned on me. We all have a little bit of that donkey in us. Titles, designations, and roles make us feel important, give us a sense of worth. But in truth, it’s not the title that commands respect. It’s what we carry and contribute along the way. When that’s gone, the world moves on, and we’re left wondering why the spotlight’s faded. So, here’s to letting go of the designation chase and focusing on what we actually bring to the table. Because at the end of the day, it’s not about the title we hold, but it’s about the value we add. And as for all those “Senior” and “Chief” tags? They’re just the idols we carry for a while. Our real worth comes from what we do when no one’s bowing. #careerinsights #corporatewisdom #lifelessons #beyondtitles #linkedinlearning

Happy Tuesday! If you could go back in time to your senior year in high school today, what advice would you give to your “high school self?” Flavian Mwasi answered my question with 12 bullet points. Feel free to add yours, too! 1. When you’re winning keep your mouth shut. 2. Don’t tell people your plans. Wait till the results speak for themselves. 3. Never expect to get what you give. Not everyone has a heart of flesh. 4. Every day you wake up, you have a new job… to be better than yesterday. 5. You will never get what you want until you are grateful for what you have. 6. Sometimes what you’re trying to hold onto is exactly what you should let go. 7. If you want to buy things without looking at the price, work without looking at the clock. 8. God puts people in your life for a reason, and removes them from your life for a better reason. 9. The devil wouldn’t be attacking you so hard if there wasn’t something valuable in you. Thieves don’t break into empty houses. 10. You’re going to piss a lot of people off when you start doing what’s best for you. 11. You will lose a lot of friends when you get really serious about your life goals. 12. Life does not get EASIER. You just get STRONGER. From Patti Felton… Keep Exploring From Vinny Joy, Bunnell High School Class of 1971… 1. Pray, then hang on. It's going to be a bumpy ride. 2. Let those around you know that you love them, especially your mom and dad. 3. Time may seem endless today, but one day you will wonder where it all went. 4. Treasure every moment and experience.

January 3 Twenty-nine years. It’s enough time to write a book, build an empire, or gather an anthology of experiences—some enlightening, others heartbreaking. As I reflect on the past, I find myself grappling with the weight of what I’ve achieved, the mistakes I’ve made, and the moments that shaped me. It’s not all triumphs and smiles. I would be lying if I said gratitude was my sole companion on this journey. Anger, sadness, discontentment, and a creeping indifference to what lies ahead are just as present. Adulthood, I’ve come to realize, is a paradox. You’re expected to navigate the complexities of life with resilience, to “suck it up” and move forward as though the struggles of existence can be effortlessly chest-thumped away. Yet, as someone deeply entrenched in philosophy and logic, I cannot ignore the bitter truth: life and death are not opposites—they are intricately intertwined. They share the inevitability of a ticking clock, differentiated only by timing. This realization often leads me to a profound yet unsettling question: If today were my last, what would my regrets be? What would I cling to as truly important? I suspect the things we struggle to prioritize now would, in the face of finality, become glaringly simple. I have lived at both extremes of life’s spectrum. I have known poverty—raw and unforgiving. I’ve been in situations where the uncertainty of my next meal gnawed at me like an unrelenting predator. I’ve also known humiliation: being labeled “dumb,” the proverbial bottom of the barrel. I remember the sting when my uncle suggested to my father that I’d be better off as a roadside mechanic and should be sent to a car garage for apprenticeship. I can’t entirely blame him. I was a hopeless student at the time, seemingly destined for mediocrity. continue reading https://lnkd.in/e3qUTfKt
