Book Description
One day I
woke up and I was 505 pounds. For the first time in my life, I didn’t really
believe in tomorrow. I kept telling myself tomorrow I will lose weight, tomorrow,
I’ll start eating right. No matter how defeated I felt about life for some
cosmic reasoning, each morning God woke me up and tomorrow kept coming.
I had no idea what I was doing but I was determined to focus on the present and not my past that I felt was weighing me down. Days turned into months and months turned into years and I eventually shed over 250 pounds!
How can you overcome such traumatic changes in your own life? What are some of the mental battles that you face when striving to overcome hardships? Each day we are faced with tests that we must pass or fail. The answers to 365 of those challenges are inside this book as daily reminders of how you're going to be just fine!

About the
Author
On Friday, October 27th,
2006, my mother died from a massive stroke when she collapsed in the kitchen of
our home. At the time, I was in Savannah, Georgia on my way home when I got the
call from my sister, Tamika. I had just spoken with my mother a day before and
to this day, still remember the last time I saw her face, as she dropped me off
at the Greyhound bus station to embark on a journey to grow my music career.
After a year of grieving and coping, I embarked on a different journey, a
journey to further my education. My mother was a teacher for Cleveland Public
Schools for nearly 30 years and deep down inside I wanted to make my mother
proud. I chose to apply to a program that would challenge me, a decision that
would lead to me obtaining a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Bowling Green
State University in 2013. Before I completed this program, I would be greeted
with more devastating news when my sister, Tamika, died at the age of 33. Those
were by far the toughest moments of my life that helped me to find my greatest
strengths.
In March 2016, I took an
idea and transformed it into an executed business concept when I launched
Quality SIRvice, LLC. The main objective of my business is to inspire, empower
and motivate individuals who are striving to overcome weight concerns, while
also providing that same level of encouragement to individuals who are coping
with traumatic events/loss. By assisting clients with identifying goals they
can accomplish, we are then able to formulate a plan of action. It is my
ultimate goal to help my clients realize they can achieve their personal goals
and overcome challenges, well beyond my consultation.
Excerpt
An interesting concept
crossed my mind recently. We are the only living organisms created that
criticize our design & designer. We are the only creatures that can
highlight every attribute that is wrong with us, & not only that but we
work diligently to reconstruct these flaws or self-destruct ourselves because
of them. How rude it must feel to the artist of ALL, to watch over & love
all existence, yet there is one particular species that is the most
self-righteous, neediest, unsatisfied species in all existence. Do you ever get
off of your pedestal to acknowledge that your flaws are what keep you balanced?
Have you ever thought your weaknesses help you to develop your strengths? Have
you ever thought, while complaining about a detail that was painted onto you by
the supreme artist of all, that you could be changed by this artist as well or
that detail exists for a reason beyond your current understanding? Art doesn’t
always have to be understood to be beautiful, but you’re a work of art
nonetheless.
