Learn to Love Yourself: Keep Fighting

      We live in a age where opportunities for success are more available then ever. But we are still human. Many of us feel stuck. We work hard, but are not seeing the results we want. We fight the good fight, yet still get knocked down. Well you know what; get back up. Success will not come easy. If things aren't going the way you want them work harder. You must have faith in a higher power.  Faith that better things are to come. Faith that if you keep fighting you will win. Faith that your circumstances will change for the better.          So are you ready? Are you ready to succeed in life? I don't know what your background is. I don't know what turmoil you are in. But I know one thing. That if you continue fighting for something that it will eventually happen. I'm fighting for my furture right now. Outside of building my  smart home website , I am also is school for HVACR. It's tough and sometimes I get weary. But I know...

Work Hard, Dreamers

      It's Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s. birthday and I'd like to talk about dreams. It's funny because dreams  have been consuming my mind for the past few months. Thinking about how I let some get away from me; how I forgot some of them, and what can I do to grasp them. So I started on a journey to affirm my success and reach those goals that I kept postponing.       "What happens to a dream deferred. Does it dry up in the sun?... Or does it explode?" - Owen Wilson in "Internship" paraphrasing  Langston Huge's "A Dream Deffered". I was just watching the movie and it got me revved up. Here you had two middle aged men. All they knew was one thing, sales. And they weren't the best at it. Then they where told that all you knew wasn't good enough anymore. They where nice fellows that wore they hearts on there sleeves. Both guys were imperfect like we all are. But they reevaluated themselves. Both of them took inventory off th...

Chasing Lost Dreams

       Below is a poem that I wrote many years ago. I was homeless working two part time jobs; all while attending college. It was my first semester. I was the first person in my family to ever attend college. The only support I had was my own. I became homeless because of my selflessness. But I maintained A's in school do to my perseverance. I was chasing my lost dreams, hoping that success was around the next bend. Chasing Lost Dreams I've been homless but never nameless To tell the truth I've been kind of shameless  but never pride less  Chasing lost drams wit' the nameless  Wit' a thirst to be famous  Chasing lost dreams, running  Chasing lost dreams, gating  I've been on my grind cousin Like Lupe Fiasco kick, pushing  Off of dreams dreams so astonishing  Dreams None but me acknowledging I've been chasing dreams  That compliment  My imaginations extent "Matrix" them...

The Entrepreneur, The Freak

Entrepreneur  : one who organizes, manages, and assumes the risks of a business or enterprise. Freak  : whimsical in quality or disposition i.e., capricious.         You know that guy at your job who is always positive despite the b.s.. He has an astounding work ethic yet the supervisor doesn't like him. The fella is social yet his intelligence makes others feel that he's being smug. He is always open to talk about his past failures; what he has learned from them, and how he has moved forward. You hear the guy talk about his goals that sound unattainable because he chooses to reach them traveling his own path. Wooh! That was a mouthful. Well I am that guy. The freak of nature. The always venturing. The ENTREPRENEUR. Lenwood Wilson Jr. (Homeless shelter event)       Born and bread in the inner-city of Baltimore, MD.
