Greatness 101: Create Solid Relationships

Image
  Relationships are the glue that holds team members together Respect: “You can’t make the person feel important in your presence if you secretly feel that he is nobody.” Shared Experiences: Common suffering creates a common bond bur Common success creates a common lifestyle.   Trust: To be trusted is a greater compliment than to be loved. Without trust, you cannot sustain any kind of relationship.   Reciprocity: Ask you teammates about their hopes, desires, and goals. Show them that you care. Mutual Enjoyment: Nothing will give you greater satisfaction or bring you more happiness than becoming a highly relational person.   #StandingInMyGreatness #BusinessGainz #ThisGrindisPersonal Lets work together TradeWithTabious.com   2020 will be Different   Here’s some information: H.U.S.T.L.E.

Are You Slightly Arrogant?

Image
“Arrogant” is one of the few labels that was used to describe me over the last 37 years and 8 months.  I never thought of myself as arrogant, conceited, or cocky even though most people would tell you I was.  Truth be told; growing up I never had much of a high self esteem until I realized that what other people thought of me did not matter. At that point I began to focus on my dreams and goals then life began to open up for me.  For the last two years I have constantly reminded myself and anyone connected to me to “Lets Be Great Today #1Down”! In 2018 it’s time to accept the fact that you are great and GREATNESS is YOU! To be able to accept the fact that You Are Greatness you will have to accept the fact that you are Slightly Arrogant! I dare you to Stand In Your Greatness for all of 2018! Muhammad Ali was famously quoted saying “I said I was the Greatest even before I knew I was”! That’s the mentality we need to embrace.

Miseducation of the Modern Negro

Image
Happy Friday Eve!!!!  It's almost TGIF.  I normally do not speak on "controversial" topics but I sat back and realized when did being a black man become "controversial".  This video titled Miseducation of the Modern Negro is my quick interpretation of  one of my favorite quotes by Dr. Carter G. Woodson.    "If you can control a man's thinking you do not have to worry about his action.  When you determine what a man shall think you do not have to concern yourself about what he will do.  If you make a man feel that he is inferior, you do not have to compel him to accept an inferior status, for he will seek it himself.  If you make a man think that he is justly an outcast, you do not have to order him to the back door.  He will go without being told; and if there is no back door, his very nature will demand one." Carpe Diem... Seize the day!   Check out my views Miseducation of the Modern Negro below.   Lets be...

Are You Ready?

Image
One of my favorite quotes is "We don't get what we want out of life, we get what we are".  We have to become the person that deserves our goals and dreams.  Until we become that person our dreams will never become reality. I read a passage by poet William Arthur Ward that encouraged me.  I hope it does for you too.   Believe while others are doubting. Plan while others are playing. Study while others are sleeping. Decide while others are delaying. Prepare while others are daydreaming. Begin while others are procrastinating. Work while others are wishing. Save while others are wasting. Listen while others are talking. Smile while others are frowning. Commend while others are criticizing. Persist while others are quitting. So I ask you "Are you ready?".  Carpe Diem... Seize the day!

Are You a Builder, Quitter, or Incubator

Image
I've been asking myself this serious question for the last few weeks "Am I a quitter, an incubator, or a builder?".  That can be a tough question to ask yourself as an entrepreneur because you have to look in the mirror.  Activities like writing down you goals, organizing your calendar, or buying business cards can "trick" you into thinking that you are actually building a business.  The activities that make you a business builder are the ones that generate income!  I challenge you to take a look at your daily activities and determine if they generate income or lead you in that direction.  If those activities are not moving you towards a profit then it is time to reevaluate....So I ask you "Are you a Quitter, Incubator, or Builder?".  Carpe Diem... Seize the day!   Did This Help You? If so, I really need your support!  I always say that I want to inspire just 1 person every time I speak. ...

Watch Out For Monkeys

Many people have had their dreams knocked out of them by dream crushers and idea killers.  Business professors Gary Hamel and C.K.

What's Your 2016 Vision?

Image
It's 2016!!!  We made it!  I don't know about you but the older I get the faster the years go by.  I hope that you have taken some time to think and have a vision of exactly how you want your 2016 to become.  I read a quote by Mike Hyatt that said "If you have a clear vision, you will eventually attract the right strategy.  If you don't have a clear vision, no strategy will save you".  I am taking that stance going into 2016.  I know the vision I have for my life; but I do not know exactly how I will get there.  The one thing that I am certain of is that I will stay focused and stand in my gift of speaking & inspiring.  We have 366 days in 2016 to design the life that we want to live.  DO NOT WASTE one of them!  Before you know it the clock will be counting down on 2016 and we will be saying Happy New Year 2017.   Carpe Diem... Seize the day!   Check out my first video of 2016 below.   Lets be great today!...

1Down "21 Day Challenge"

Image
Can you believe there are 58 days left in 2015!?!  Seriously, the older I get the faster the year goes by!  In my preparation for 2016 one thing that I feel that was missing in 2015 were serious accountability partners.  The old adage “birds of a feather flock together” comes to mind when I think my most successful times in life.  In my former football life I was surrounded by my teammates and pushed by my coaches to achieve championship success.  In my entrepreneurship career I’ve had the privilege to have great business partners that pushed me to become a better leader and mentors that were examples of great businessmen.  From both of those experiences I learned how to create consistent habits that helped me achieve the goals I set.  A tool that I have put together to help me and hopefully you with finishing your 2015 goals and preparing for your 2016 goals is the 1Down 21 Day Challenge!  How many times have you seen or heard pe...

H.U.S.T.L.E. "The Universe Is Abundant"

Image
Lets talk about the abundance of the Universe!!!  We have all heard phrases like "speak your dreams to the universe", "the secret", or "the universe is full of abundance".  I feel that all these statements are true but most people think of the Universe as the lottery.  The universe responds to natural actions that are deeply believed by your subconscious. It's time to focus on exactly what you want.  It's time to HUSTLE! H.U.S.T.L.E. H = Hero U = Universe S = Servant Leadership T = Think L = Legendary E = Entrepreneurship There are a lot motivational speakers, coaches, bloggers, etc out there.  Anyone can read books and regurgitate memorized quotes but my goal is to actually train and teach .  I have broken down each segment into separate videos and will be uploading them over the next week.  The second video below is my training on the Universe.  I hope you learn at least 1 thing from...

H.U.S.T.L.E. (Hero)

Image
This past year I had a several great opportunity to speak at high schools here in Atlanta.  As a former teacher I knew that I had to come up with some material that will first get their attention and secondly keep their attention.  I toiled over ideas for a few weeks and finally developed the acronym H.U.S.T.L.E. "The American Dream".  I wanted to provide my audience with some useful tips that most people never really think about.  H.U.S.T.L.E.

Power In Having Nothing To Lose

Image
Happy first day of October to you!  I wanted to send out a quick message for my friends that may be going through a challenging time in there life.  Whatever P.A.I.N. you maybe going through remember that it is only temporary.  Embrace the P.A.I.N. and allow it to push you to your passion.  As the book of life says "this too shall pass". P = Passion : What drives you? What motivates you? What inspires you? A = Action : Take massive action towards your dreams and goals I = Inspired : Stay Inspired. Put yourself on a daily personal development routine N = Never, Never, Never, Never Quit Remind yourself that "No matter how bad it is or how bad it gets....I AM GOING TO MAKE IT"!    In today's Leader of Leaders video I am speaking on having power when you have nothing to lose! Let's be great today! 1 Down!  Did This Help You? If so, I would greatly appreciate it if you would forward to your friends and share on Facebook or...

WOW These "Coaches"

Image
I am utterly disgusted with how some of these so called "coaches" are being terrible examples to our youth. Parents stay involved with your kids and sports. Don't get me wrong I know that majority of coaches are doing a great job. You all deserve the upmost credit. But there are some coaches that truly disgust me. www.IamSuperTLC.biz  

Focus In The 4th Quarter

Image
If you haven't realized; it is the best time of the year!  It is FOOTBALL SEASON!  One challenge that I took on in 2015 is to become a football referee.  It is week 5 here in Georgia and I am starting to enjoy officiating football.  Watching the kids in high school play reminds me of my days at THE Peach County High School with my brother Randy McMichael, best friends Louis Ivory, DJ Starling, Nekeyma Wright and many more.  We take football very serious here in the state of Georgia.  Friday nights should be considered national holidays and the stadiums are hallowed grounds where champions are made.  One thing we were taught at THE Peach County High School is 48 Minutes of Black Hat in the Mouth.  We were going to fight for 48 full minutes.  It did not matter what the score was or what challenges we faced. For 48 minutes the other team would know that they had played the Mighty Trojans.  That is the same a...

Your Gift Is Not For Your Friends

Image
As entrepreneurs it is natural to want the people that are close to use to love and support our endeavors.  Unfortunately,  that's not always the case. When I first started in the industry of network marketing I really thought I had some influence and respect as a business minded person.  After the first month went by I quickly realized that my family and friends only remembered all the times that I tried and failed.  I'm sure they all wanted me to be successful but I did not have their respect enough for them to partner with me.  Truth be told they didn't even respect me enough to purchase the product.  It was a challenge for me to keep going but I was lucky enough to be involved with a company with a strong personal development program.  Over the years I realized that in order to have the success I dreamed of I would need to become the type of person that deserved that level of success.  One of my favorite quotes is "...
