Long time...No Hear From!!
I haven't talked to you since July and I bet you are wondering, "What in the world is going on with MonaLisa?" Well, here we go...
In July, I was unemployed and barely making ends meet. I quit my job in March and lived off my savings for about 2 months. In those two months, I wanted to start my business and my nonprofit AT THE SAME TIME!! I know...I know...ambitious huh?? How about CRAZY? LOL
I went and got certified for the business I started and its name is Style Architect Image Consulting Firm. It was looking pretty good. I was pumped and motivated in getting started. I thought everything was flowing. Then in August and September a few deals crashed and burned. Now that is when your girl starting freaking out!! By this time I am living off friends and family and my bills are steady piling up. Then I turned to the ONLY one that could help such a prideful and egotistic girl like me....GOD!
I prayed like someone had died or something. Well, to really look at it. I had to really DIE and depend on God for my source of income and not me. I know you are wondering what I'm talking about well let me break it down. I decided to do what he wants me to do, instead of what I wanted to do. I wanted to own my own business....God said not yet. I wanted to start up a nonprofit business, God said not yet. So I had to surrender to what he wanted for me and that was working a 9 to 5 again!!
So, the moment I really surrendered and gave God full authority on what he wanted to do with me, He blessed me with a 9 to 5 and it pays more than my last endeavor. But the enemy tried to allow my ego to kick in again and I didnt want to really say how bad I was doing to my new boss but when I did she understood and started me immediately. So you cant tell me GOD AINT GOOD!!
