Become Your Own Standard I Spoken Blog

Become Your Own Standard I Spoken Blog (Click to listen)

Look at the life you are building and ask yourself one simple question,

Who do I want to become?

Not the version shaped by trends, opinions, or expectations but the person you respect when you see your own reflection.

Confidence is not something the world gives you.

It is something you decide.

It grows through discipline, through self-respect, and through the courage to live with intention and purpose.

The moment is not someday.

The moment is NOW.

So set your bar high.

Stand firmly in your values.

Walk forward with purpose and become the standard of who you choose to be.

... Read moreSetting your own standard is a transformative journey that starts with self-awareness and the courage to redefine what success and confidence mean to you personally. In my experience, this mindset shift involves consistently choosing actions that align with your core values instead of external trends or opinions. For example, when I began to prioritize self-discipline and respect for my boundaries, I noticed a natural growth in my confidence and an improved sense of purpose. Confidence truly is an internal decision—you build it through repeated commitment to your goals and by embracing challenges with resilience. It's important to recognize that confidence isn't about perfection but about progress and authenticity. When you focus on living with intention, you begin to see every moment as an opportunity to reinforce your self-worth and live according to your standards. One practical approach is to regularly reflect on who you aspire to become and list the qualities that this ideal version of yourself embodies. This reflection acts as a compass that guides daily decisions and behaviors. Moreover, surrounding yourself with supportive communities like #womenwithvision or #confidencemindset forums can provide encouragement and accountability. Remember, the 'moment is NOW'—waiting for the perfect time often leads to procrastination and doubt. By setting your bar high and walking forward with purpose, you create a personal standard that others may admire but importantly, one that brings you satisfaction and empowerment. Embrace the power of self-respect and let it fuel your journey towards becoming your own standard—because living true to yourself is the most powerful path to lasting confidence.

A book cover titled "MOJO WORKIN': The Old African American Hoodoo System" by Katrina Hazzard-Donald. It displays illustrations of Hoodoo-related items such as bath salts, oils, "Paket Kongo" objects, and a cassette tape, along with prices and promotional text like "Come See Me Your Spiritual Supplies."
A Spoken Practice
Hoodoo is very much a spoken practice so if you did not grow up in a practicing household it can be quite challenging to learn on your own. But AJ (my name), there are plenty of books out here on Hoodoo. Sure there are, there are also plenty of translations of the Bible and fiction novels as well.

The image displays the beginning of a diary entry dated November 15, 2024, at 11:47 PM. The text describes feelings of being in a dark place, questioning isolation, acknowledging a higher being, and expressing fear of oneself.
The image shows a continuation of the diary entry, where the author questions their own potential and spark, expresses fear of taking risks, and reflects on how others perceive them as passionate and strong, while admitting their emotions scare them.
The image presents another section of the diary entry, discussing common criticisms like 'You're too much,' the conflict between faith and personal desires, acknowledging hypocrisy, and the struggles with depression and anxiety.
