Who is your best friend forever?

Who is your B.F.F (Best Friend Forever)? What would you do for your BFF? Would you encourage your BFF? Would you stand in the way of your of BFF’s dreams?

You would do everything within your power to assist and encourage your BFF. You would burn the midnight oil with them and go the long haul for your BFF, of course you would.

So, I ask you again “Who is your BFF?” Let me tell you who your Best Friend Forever is YOU.  Didn’t think I was going to say that, right. It is true that we are our Best Friend and not for a season, but Forever, however we can be our worst enemy.

Jason Mason stated “The first rule of winning: Don’t beat yourself.”
His statement sounds easier said then done.  I remember sitting down with a good girlfriend of mine and saying “That I don’t want my cousin to go through what I did, waking up at the age of _ thinking I didn’t do that, I didn’t do this , waste this time, I wasted that time, and etc.” She pulled herself close to me and said “Don’t beat yourself up for what you have not done yet. Celebrate what you have done and keep working.” When I replayed our conversation I realized I was beating myself up. I had to stop and take account of who I was.  I had to reintroduce myself to my BFF… me.

In this world we have a lot of things against us from our gender, our race, even to the way we speak, let’s not put our self against our self. That is the worst crime we could ever do to our self.   We must encourage ourselves. We must go the long haul with ourselves, and do all the things that help us not just be above the water, however to live on the mountain top. We need to take care of ourselves from the outsider appearance to our inside health.  We need to learn to forgive ourselves and most of all we must LOVE ourselves and walk in love (once we do that everything will be so much easier, just like second nature).

When is the last you and your BFF went out or just had a cup of tea together?

    Finding out that you are your own BFF is a great starting point for being a friend, a true friend to someone else. "A friend loves at all times". Even if we are to mess up, we learn from it and move on. You love your BFF and I do too!

    I really loved your BFF concept. Originally, I was reflecting on my various friends and seeing who fit that criteria. When I read the part of being that for myself, it almost brought me to tears. I know within my own life that although it seems like such a simple concept, achieving it is another story! I also see the challenges in trying to help instill this in our youth and what a valuable and empowering gift BFF is when you allow yourself to give it to yourself as well as supporting others in doing the same! This also inspired me to read several of your other blogs such as Turning Peanuts into Profits and What's the Game Plan. I am sooo excited to try the various suggestions you had in them. After reading your blogs, I can hardly wait to get to read your book! Thanks so much for the inspiration.
