Why you should use what you have!

Are you not going to eat because you didn’t have enough money for the ribeye steak, grilled lobster and pasta your heart desired?

Matter fact, are you going to starve because all you had to eat was a pack of ramen noodles or oatmeal? More than likely you won’t and you’re gonna make the best of that struggle meal because that’s what you do when shit gets tough!

Honestly, there was a time when I walked throughout the boroughs of NYC, drank tons of faucet water, ate bananas for meals and treated myself to $3 chicken wings three times per week because that’s all my pockets could afford. My entertainment and education during those times came from the library and at the time I didn’t see an issue with what was going on in my life. In real life I was homeless, I had no place of residency; sleeping on couches, blow up mattresses and even pulled an all nighter in a hallway

Yet and still, guess who wasn’t complaining? Guess who somehow made ends meet? Guess who knew by any means necessary that eventually they’d find their way? This girl. I could have easily ran home {to Pittsburgh} and would’ve been accepted with open arms, tons of food and keys to homes but the life I desired meant sacrifice, hard-work, faith and patience.

Think about a time in which you maybe didn’t have much, you were hungry, broke and Made it work.

Now, let’s apply that to the lives we lead…

What if all you had was an idea, passion and what you thought of as limited resources? Are you going to allow your lack of resources to stop you from creating, researching and getting ahead? You may not realize it but you can honestly find one thing to work on per week that might cost you more time and patience than money.

Lots of people are much smarter than they think. Lots of times we end up in situations (jobs) that don’t really challenge us to think much nor grow, so in turn we act like robots and just act without putting too much thought into it. So before you think you can’t make something work take a look at who and what you are making work and how you can work it in your favor.

I encourage you to take back your mind, think about what you can do with what you have, pray, have faith yet know that prayer only works well with action. Use what you got to get what you want, but never think you cannot make shit shake with your limited resources.
