As I write to you, I am coming off an unbelievable week. Jamelle Sanders International is still in the middle of a major rebranding initiative. We are now an empowerment media company and the transition has been amazing. Last week we broke another social media record and the momentum continues to build. In addition, we are breaking records on Periscope and more people are hearing the message of empowerment. While the week was quite hectic, I have enjoyed seeing the explosive growth happening in the organization. I believe that breakthroughs are coming because of a decision I made to embrace total freedom in my life. It’s an incredible moment and I am maximizing it!
What is freedom? What does freedom look like to you? What is standing in the way of your freedom? Last week I had the opportunity to speak with one of my mentors and to have a very in-depth conversation. The topic of freedom came up and I experienced one of the most profound aha moments of my life. In that moment I knew that my life would never be the same and I knew that I had experienced a major breakthrough. It finally clicked for me. I learned that you have to mute all the things in your life that do not really matter. We allow too many things that do not matter to get in the way of momentum. I immediately started to go through my goals and some things were deleted. Other things had to be reprioritized. However, by the time I was finished I knew what freedom looked like for me. The light bulb truly came on and I knew that something was broken off of my life forever. Freedom is not long and tedious. Freedom is the product of assessing priorities. Freedom is birthed when you remove the things that prevent you from moving forward. Freedom is available to everyone but it requires adjustment. I challenge you right now to look at your life and to assess what freedom looks like to you. It’s time to stop living in bondage. Break free from whatever is holding you back!
In closing, last week was an amazing week. While I am excited about all the things happening in my professional life, I am more excited about what is happening in my personal life. I am so thankful for coaches and mentors in my life. One conversation created a breakthrough moment for me. I finally understood what freedom looked like. I’m not just talking about spiritual freedom. I’m talking about freedom in every area of life. Freedom is not a fantasy. Freedom is something that you have to fight for. However, it is impossible to defend what you have not defined. Right now I want you to define what freedom looks like to you. I don’t want you to consult anyone but I want you to create a definition of freedom in your life. I guarantee it will set you on a powerful course to change. You can be free!
