The Quest Chronicles: A Moment

on May 14, 2024 Health & Wellness The Quest Chronicles add comment

The Quest Chronicles: A Moment You ever just want to get a way? As adults we have bills and responsibilities so those vacation days don’t get used. Then there’s the situation of being uncomfortable to take time off without pay because you need the money so you’re forced to neglect yourself. This is unhealthy and unfair.

It is disheartening to know that we can’t truly focus on our mental health as we should. We have to focus more on how to survive. All we want is a break, to breathe; a moment of clarity. Is that too much to ask for?

Can we get a day, a weekend, a week? Doesn’t have to be a true out of the country vacation. Some of us would settle for a staycation at a hotel nearby. We just need a ME moment! A moment to relax, a moment to strategize, a moment to release and hopefully end with some type of clarity. It won’t change anything majorly but it’s a step.

The Quest Chronicles: Adult Life

on May 7, 2024 Health & Wellness The Quest Chronicles add comment

The Quest Chronicles: Adult Life As children we all couldn’t wait to be adults. We no longer wanted curfew & definitely didn’t want to be told what to do. We can’t forget the freedom of going wherever you want to go, driving fast cars and just living life. I remember teenagers even saying they were looking forward to cursing freely, drinking and smoking but to each their own.

Now as adults; we realize that it’s not what it’s cracked up to be. Our parents and guardians hid a lot of things from us. These bills, stress and problems are a little too much to bear. Now we completely understand when an elder would say; “enjoy being a kid while it lasts. Don’t try to grow up too fast.” These words never felt so true.

Even though adulthood comes with a lot of unexpected turns; you still have the ability to turn things around. Revamp, regroup and make new plans. Control the narrative and embrace a new journey if need be. As an adult, you have the freedom to do so.

The Quest Chronicles: A New Day

on April 30, 2024 Health & Wellness The Quest Chronicles add comment

The Quest Chronicles: A New Day Have you ever seen the movies where the lead character is waking up reliving the same day over and over? The purpose of the movie is for them to make things right in their lives,in their relationships, etc. When watching these movies, you have to shake your head at how many times they have to keep reliving the day until they get it right.

Well, this is how I live my life. I wake up everyday with a clean slate and take on the new day as a challenge. If I’m having a bad day, I meditate and remind myself that if I’m blessed to see another day; I will take a stab at getting it right tomorrow. Apply this method to your life and let me know how it goes. Today may be stressful but bring in tomorrow with a new perspective and try to conquer the day differently. It may just be the trick to getting exactly what you need in life.

The Quest Chronicles: Take This Lesson

on April 23, 2024 Health & Wellness The Quest Chronicles add comment

The Quest Chronicles: Take This Lesson We tend to meet a lot of people, grow to like them but then what? Relationships arise in some cases and in others absolutely nothing. You may meet someone who enjoys talking to you but that’s all it is. Are we connecting on a deeper level, do we see a future with each other or are we just enjoying whatever this is?

The Quest Chronicles: Take This Lesson

If you spend too much time just playing the field don’t be surprised if a certain someone moves on. You can’t expect them to wait around until you find out what you want to do, in this case when you see them with someone else, don’t be shocked or hurt; just let them go and move on. Take this as a lesson learned before you lose someone else that you may think is right for you.

The Quest Chronicles: Networking Time

on April 16, 2024 Health & Wellness The Quest Chronicles add comment

The Quest Chronicles: Networking Time Shout out to the entrepreneurs out there holding it down alone or with a team. If you are still a team of one, that’s not a bad thing. As you patiently wait for the proper teammates, do like I did; outsource and hire staff members. Whatever you’re selling or trying to get out there, find the right people in their field to help you get it out to the masses.

I’m talking about coming up with a business plan, hiring a graphic designer (such as myself) for promo flyers, business cards, media for coverage and do whatever you have to do to get the word out there. Sitting at home, doing nothing will not bring you clientele.

There’s a lot of people out there that can help you but you have to take the first step. Yes, it’s hard to know who to rely on but business is all about risk taking so are you ready to take that risk? Do your research, check reviews or have someone as amazing as myself, who is connected in the business to help point you in the right direction. There’s a lot of money out there for all of us so let’s get it together!

The T-Quest Chronicles: Are YOU The Problem?

on March 19, 2024 Health & Wellness The Quest Chronicles 1 comment

The T-Quest Chronicles: Are YOU The Problem Have you ever scrolled through your social media feed and found yourself exhausted by all the negativity? The endless stream of complaints and criticisms can be draining, to say the least. But what’s even more comical is that many of these complainers are guilty of the same behaviors they’re criticizing.

As a business owner, I find it all very comical. My company is designed to help others expand their brand, yet so many people seem determined to hold themselves back with their negative attitudes.

Consider the person who is always complaining about the high cost of goods and services. They’ll rant and rave about how unfair everything is, how they’re being taken advantage of, while insisting that their price is their price. However, when it comes time to pay for something, they will be the first to request a discount.

The T-Quest Chronicles: Are YOU The Problem

It’s like they want to have their cake and eat it too. They’ll gladly criticize others for behavior they engage in themselves, without even realizing the hypocrisy of their actions.

So here’s my advice: look in the mirror. Take a good, hard look at yourself and ask if you’re the customer or friend that you’re always having issues with. Are you the one causing problems? Are you the one who’s really unprofessional? It’s time for some self-evaluation.

Because here’s the thing: the same people you have issues with are often a reflection of who you see in the mirror. If you’re constantly complaining about others, it’s likely that you’re the problem. And until you can recognize that and make some changes, you’ll never be able to move forward and expand your brand.

Remember, social media can be a powerful tool for positivity and connections. Let’s use it to lift each other up, rather than tearing each other down.

The Quest Chronicles: Be The Light

on March 5, 2024 Health & Wellness The Quest Chronicles add comment

The Quest Chronicles: Be The Light The world is becoming a dark place. Relationships are failing, trust issues are at an all time high and everyone is out for themselves. Yes, It has been like this for quite some time but it’s more out in the open especially because of social media. People don’t know what to believe in or who to believe in. It’s becoming scary out there.

As for me, I understand and I observe but I don’t partake. I continue to stay positive & I continue to not allow this world to change my character. I lead by example and action. I am a reminder that dreams can come true. I am a reminder that love does exist & I am a reminder that just because others are putting out negative energy doesn’t mean I have to as well. The world may be a dark place but continue to show that there is light. You have the ability to be it.

The Quest Chronicles: Who To Trust

on February 27, 2024 The Quest Chronicles add comment

The Quest Chronicles: Who To Trust Everyday there’s a new brand and a new hustle. I truly love what I do in this music industry as a Personality, Journalist, Anchor and more. I have expanded my brand to work with numerous clients to help take themselves, their music and their brands to the next level. Seeing their faces after seeing the work that I do from them from graphic designs to promotions. I’m in the field that I love which in many cases is not easy.

The Quest Chronicles: Who To Trust

The beginning process tends to be rough at times. By the time they come around to professionals like myself, they’re reluctant to work. There’s a fear of being played again. In cases like this I have to convince them I’m not like the others. This is the perfect time to show them that I am different. I have enough comfortable conversations with my potential clients; answering as many questions as I can. Making sure to get them to trust me as much as I can .

It’s kind of like relationships. If you’re dealing with someone who’s been hurt before; it may take time to gain their trust. If it’s the right person; it’ll be worth it and if it’s a client you don’t want to get away; it’ll be worth it as well.

The Quest Chronicles: Super Bowl LVIII Half Time Show

on February 13, 2024 The Quest Chronicles add comment

The Quest Chronicles: Half Time Show Every year the Super Bowl picks an international artist to bless the stage. You have to be an incredible crossover artist to even be considered. This year, Usher was the lucky one. I was very impressed with his overall performance. Putting smiles on everyone faces as he brought out artists such as H.E.R, Alicia Keys, Ludacris, Jermaine Dupri and Will.I.AM. Of course many people had a lot to say about the performance, the way Jermaine was dressed, Alicia Keys first off key note to the way Usher was holder her. No one is perfect, people have their own choice of style, and you can’t forget people are entertainers.

Nay Sayers may say what they want good or bad but me personally thought the Superbowl performance was executed perfectly. I have no need to highlight certain things like others for entrainment purposes. I was a proud viewer because Usher did not disappoint. He had a wonder song selection ,with the right features, dance moves and performed in a way that many viewers could enjoy.

The Quest Chronicles: Half Time Show

Some people expect so much from people doing something they don’t have the capability to do nor will ever have the honor of executing. To be honest, the part i was most proud of is that I was not embarrassed by the performance. Many artists in the Hip-Hop and R&B genre have been a little too free and reckless lately to cheer for. It was refreshing to enjoy a talented artist who proudly represented for the culture and did it well. Once again congratulations Usher!

The Quest Chronicles: Black History Month

on February 6, 2024 The Quest Chronicles add comment

The Quest Chronicles: Black History Month It’s Black History Month and I’m excited! Yes, back in school; we used to learn about some of our great black ancestors and what they haven’t done for us like Martin Luther King Jr, Malcolm X, Rosa parks, etc! What I want you to do is think about all the greats that came before them, during their time but after as well!

Black excellence is in full force and I can’t be more proud. We have so many black doctors, lawyers, teachers, entrepreneurs, millionaires and the list goes on. Keep shining, show love, show support and remember that you matter! Shout out to all my black Kings and Queens. Let’s uplift each other every day but let’s go harder this month!
