Steps to Living LIfe on Purpose! Morning Tea with Inspire Many

Good morning Family!

I love my life!  Can you say the same?? What I would suggest is maybe you "cut the fat".

What is the extra stuff in your life?  Whats bothering you? Causing you the cry? Worry? Complain? maybe its time to block it out.

Today's topic: Living life on Purpose

I'll go straight to the ladies.

Ladies, how many times have you answered the phone while you were doing something...((its someone you care for on the other end)) They ask: Hey what are you doing...Youre response: Oh nothing.

Come on!!!

It is time to start living life on purpose.

1. After God, begin to put yourself first.

i was given an analogy a very long time ago.  On airplanes when they are going over the rules and regulations...they say make sure when the bag drops from the ceiling to out it over your mouth and nose first.  Why? because if you don't you will die.  What good are you, if you are dead?  Same situation here.  If you are not making yourself a priority, you are actually shortchanging others. If you are not your best, you cannot give your best.


2. Cut away anything toxic.  If you are in a relationship, friendship/lover, etc.  that you find yourself crying or upset majority of the time...what is the point?  Fear of Loneliness is something that many people have.  but understand that there are billions of people on this earth.  Walking away from one person will not kill you!  Take the time to analyze your relationships.  Stop stalking exs on facebook, twitter, etc. Block it, shut it down for a while.  Move on.  Concentrate on #1: YOU!

3. Back to you! Learn to love yourself.  If you don't love yourself, how in the world can you love anyone else? Understand that you find it hard to spend time alone, that is a problem.  Take time out to get to know who you are before someone tries to define you.

Listen, I've been there done that , wrote the "book".  I know it is hard to make time for you, walk away from someone we "love", and love ourselves first.  But as I have learned that if your don't do these steps, you will always fall short to the opinion or schedule of someone else.  I am here to tell you that what you have to offer is important to this world.  Your opinion matters.  There is so much you can do and the only this stopping it from happening is YOU.

Come on!

Live it, Be it, Do it!

The Power of Positive Thinking!:Morning Tea with Inspire Many

Fabulous morning Family!

What a weekend!  Spent with some of my favorite people near and far. Quality time seeing how they were.  Friends for over a decade! Took gran to vote. WOW! Giving thanks.  I love you all!

Ok ok today's topic: The Power of Positive thinking

Your mindset is the determining factor of how your day evolves.  If you say to yourself, " Awww man...it's Monday...I gotta go to work..:( dang..." That is not a really good start to a day or a week.

Let me tell you...on Friday...I put out there...that this was going to be a weekend filled with fun and laughter, surrounded by love and shenanigans! And that is EXACTLY what happened.

I played games, witnessed the joining of 2 beautiful people, broke bread with loved ones...  PERFECT!

How many times have you ruined your day before it even started?

What can you do now to change that mindset?

3 Steps to a Positive Mindset:

1. Choose 1 thing to look forward to.

i.e. I am excited to see 1 of my co workers today

I am happy that I am having chicken for lunch today ;)

It can be simple

2. Choose 1 item "to do" that will make you feel accomplished

-Sometimes we have a "laundry" list of things to do...that by the end of the day we are upset because we hardly even touched the list.  Instead of being upset.  Start your day with...If I do this one item I will feel accomplish.  Get that done so even if nothing else happens.  You can be proud. It is done.

3. Start you morning with something positive

For me, reading the Word/ Bible/ devotion keeps me in check. For instance, today's passage was based on:  “Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things”

(Philippians 4:8, NIV)

Focusing on what God has done in my life thus far, keeps me in "check".  Understanding that I have been through worse and if He got me through that...He can get me through this.  Whatever adversity you face, it is only for a season.  A season can be minutes, days, months, years,.... look for the lesson and learn from it.

What is something positive you can start your morning with?

Can't wait to hear from you!

HAVE FUN!!! Morning Tea with InspireMany

Good morning Family!!!

I will tell you ...I am happy for the people in my life.  I recently hosted a game night at my home and people came out and had a fabulous time.

Topic: Have Fun!


Do you ever have a time where you always feel uptight, upset, irritated, tired.....STOP!

Make time for fun!

I'll tell you this...playing a few serious rounds of TABOO. Life gets really good :).

Getting together with friends/loved ones and just "kicking it" is necessary to relaxing the mind.

I give thanks for the good times. :) Healthy competition...not talking baout issues/ problems/ who slept with who/ who made you upset....a whole new conversation of "what sandwiches start with K"?! :D Is so relieving! Lighten up! Learn to laugh...learn to laugh at yourself.

Shananigans mixed in with a dose of foolishness is good medicine for the soul.

When is the last time you took time out to play!?!

Wow...the challenge for the weekend: Do something fun!  at least 1 thing and share what you plan to do below.


Look forward to hearing from you,
Coach Cass

Don't Pick up the Phone!: Morning Tea with Inspire Many

Great morning to you family!

Sometimes, it can be frustrating to ALWAYS be on call. Someone ALWAYS trying to get in touch with you...

Topic: Don't Pick up the Phone!

I remember the days when someone would leave a voicemail on your home phone ((who still has those??)).  You would wait until the answering machine picked up, har who it was, then decide if you wanted to pick up.  If you didn't want to speak at that moment...no problem... you would call back when you could.

NOW in today's society, if "I" call/text/email/facebook/tweet/ or smoke signal you...I expect a response in 2.2 seconds! WHAT IS THIS!!!!

My challenge is: Don't Pick up the Phone.

Spend more time being mindful of your actions. It's easy to get distracted at work or from what you are doing because of a phone interruption.  What kills me even more is when people get mad that you didn't respond soon enough on their clock.


Listen if it is not an emergency and I am busy.  I'll call you back.

Here is one tip that has helped: On my voicemail, I state leave a message after the beep or if you need to get in touch with me right away, send a text.

Therefore if there is no message and no important text, and I am in the middle of something, I am not likely to call back. SIMPLE.

Take Control of your time.  Don't let others dictate your schedule.  If they choose to get upset that is their choice.

I choose peace, harmony, and tranquility.  Life is too short to jump at every bell, whistle, and "whip my hair" ringtone ;). hahahaha


Either way, think about what you can do to communicate to loved ones, "Hey I value you but I need another drop of peace in my recipe of life."

I would love to hear your ideas below.

Can't wait!

Top ways to avoid Holiday Weight Gain!!!:Morning Tea with InspireMany

Oh my goodness!  Good morning Family!!!

Is it just me or is the end of the year fast approaching already!  What is going on????

I walked into a department store last week and spotted Santa!  Are you kidding?

I know the holidays bring much joy and anxiety!

You think of getting together with loved ones and the time you share but then also the 10-20 lbs that you may gain because of the unlimited availability of food!

I'll share 2 of the top 7 ways to maintain your weight during the holidays.

Yes...maintain your weight. I am a realist, I know its hard enough for you not to gain weight during this season so I won't touch weight loss.

With Halloween around the corner and the abundance of candy...

1: Everything in Moderation

Understand that too much of anything is bad.  Therefore everything in moderation is simple.  Instead of "helping" test your kids candy.  Limit yourself each day.  No more than 1 or 2 bit-size candies for the day. Same goes for desserts.  I know aunt Bev makes great rum cake ((yes, I'm Jamaican ;)), but understand that you don't have to each the whole thing yourself/ in one day.  Share the wealth, bring it to work, church, or other loved ones.

2. Eat before you leave the house
When it comes to the big dinners and holiday parties.  People tend not to eat.  They await the moment of the shindig to chow down!  Better mindset: Eat something before.  Especially since you don't know what time food will be served.  Make sure to each breakfast and lunch and even a light snack before going out to a dinner function.  This will help to curb your appetite.

Willow - Whip My Hair

Whip My Hair-Willow Smith: Morning Tea with Inspire Many

WOW Family!

Can we say talented?  It is amazing when you just have the "right connection".  Here is a little girl, 9 years old, Willow Smith, who is a child of Will and Jada Smith 2 icons in the world.  She has transitioned into the music industry because of where she is from and her talent.

I say the same to you today:

You are God's child.

You have the right connection.

Whatever your mind can concieve it can achieve.

You just have to believe.

Never give up on your dreams.


It's so funny how different things can motivate you.  For instance this morning, I changed up my routine.  I added the "Whip my Hair" song instead of listening to a screaming man say Dig Deeper! :)////Can I tell you that I went 10x harder!  What is your motivation? What gets you pumped?

If a 9 year old can do it, you have no excuse!  Get out there.  What's the worst thing that can happen?  You gave it your all and you know that you tried.  What's the best thing that can happen??? :) Exactly


Get out there and Make it happen!

Much love & Many Blessings,
Coach Cass
