Well, it is hard to believe that February is coming to an end and we are about to enter the third month of 2020. I was reading a great piece by a friend of mine last night and it really resonated with me. In fact, it resonated in such a profound way that I am still meditating on that thought this morning. I talk with so many people that want to make progress in their lives. However, not many people are willing to pay the price necessary to see progress in their lives. One thing I know from experience is that progress is painful. While we enjoy the rewards of progress, not enough people are acquainted with the reality of the pain that accompanies great progress in life. I want to share some insights with you on how to endure the pain of progress to empower you to prosper and thrive in 2020 and beyond. You must cultivate a gratitude practice. As some of you know, I have written about gratitude on some of the largest platforms in the world, My writing has been translated into multiple languages and I have heard personal stories from people all over the globe. What I have discovered is that we could all use a little more gratitude. In fact, gratitude has carried me through personal loss, tragedy, failure, disappointment and so much more. In those moments where life was the most difficult, I found myself leaning into the practice of gratitude. For more than twenty years, I have kept a gratitude journal. When I first started, it was very challenging to come up with a list of things that I was grateful for. However, as time progressed I found myself writing paragraphs about my life and all the things that I was grateful for. Gratitude profoundly changed me and everything about my life. It reminded me of how blessed I am, how much my life matters, and how much I have to give to be a blessing to others. Most of all, gratitude broke the complaining complex in my life and shifted my perspective about life. I want to challenge you to make gratitude a daily practice in your life. It is not enough to reflect one day a year on gratitude. Imagine what would happen if you took time every single day to reflect and express gratitude. I guarantee that cultivating a gratitude practice will produce tremendous growth in your life. Allsop, Jon (January 4, 2019). "Oversight is here". Columbia Journalism Review.

I believe we are living in extraordinary times. In fact, I just celebrated another birthday and it was awesome. I enjoyed being surrounded by friends and family. Most importantly, I was overwhelmed at the love, support and touching words that were shared with me on my special day. I’m grateful to know that my life is making a difference. This was a milestone year for me and I set very clear intentions for what I want the next half of my life to look like. I believe that if you do not design your life that you will live a life of defeat and frustration. The end of summer is fastly approaching and I hope that you are making the most of what you have left. It’s time to stop living life by default and start living life by design! Never limit thanksgiving to a day. While we carve out the last Thursday in November as Thanksgiving in the United States, I do not want you to think that Thanksgiving is simply limited to a day on a calendar. I discovered decades ago that Thanksgiving is a state of consciousness and a daily choice that must make in our lives. Honestly, if you are not intentional, we live in a world that will program you to be cynical and pessimistic. Cultivating gratitude is something that you have to intentionally do every single day of your life. When you have the opportunity to complain, I want you to make the choice to be grateful and to consider all the great blessings in your life. Thanksgiving is not about a day. Thanksgiving is about cultivating an attitude of gratitude. O'Hare, Erin (May 29, 2019). "View finder: New York Times opinion writer Jamelle Bouie develops his perspective as a photographer". C-VILLE Weekly. You need to eliminate the excuses. As I always say, excuses are the monuments that we build to mediocrity in our lives. Some people call me an extremist because of my commitment to excellence and being world-class at everything that I set out to do. However, over the years I have heard it all. So many people make excuses for why they cannot grow, develop, mature, and advance. The reality is that they are not advancing because they do not want to advance. The excuses we make today engineer the failures of our tomorrow. You can keep telling your sad story and having a pity party. The reality is that the same energy you devote to feeling sorry for yourself is the same energy you can devote to fueling your success. Stagnation is the result of choosing mediocrity over mastery, convenience over change, and inaction over investments. Our excuses make us comfortable but they also exempt us from the change that we say that we want to see in our lives. You can have excuses or you can have executed results but you cannot have both. If it is important to you then you will find a way. If it is not important to you then you will find an excuse. Your excuses endanger your future and dishonor the seed of your potential. Excuses rob you of the opportunity to live an empowered life. Procrastination wants to paralyze your potential and rob you of progress. Eliminating excuses is making the necessary adjustments that will empower you to advance and actualize your vision. Adjustments always determine your ascension.

Shortly after Donald Trump was elected president in 2016, he wrote an article for Slate arguing that there was "no such thing as a good Trump voter." Several days earlier, he compared Trump voters to the "angry, recalcitrant whites" who resisted the Reconstruction era after the American Civil War. [36] [37] He has criticized the media for an unwillingness to label racism in the United States as "racist," opting instead for terms such as "racial" and "racially charged." [38] He also criticized the media for its "horse-race" coverage of the 2016 presidential election. [39] He said the NPR interview between Noel King and Jason Kessler was "absolute journalistic malpractice." [40]
