Russell Simmons Book Review.....

I just want to say, this is one of the BEST inspirational books I have ever read!!!!! I got to admit it Russie....You sure did surprise me with this one... not saying you arent great at what you do, but the moment I flip thru the first chapter this book captivated me in a way that I wasnt ready for......
And again for those of you who are not up to the whats happening...this book is definitely a go getter...it has not only inspired me, but motivated me and I've found that it helps to keep me mentally focused..
What makes Russie's book different from the rest is , the format of his writing.....as they say its not what you say its how you say it....this book can catch the audience of the younger generation because it relates to hip hop and he uses example with Moguls such as Jay-Z , Diddy and 50 cents....... but the older generation can relate because the knowledge is well put and also its a no brainer.....I can tell you one thing, I will def keep this and use it as a reference.... this will be one of my Spiritual Doses when I need to get back to what really matter for me...... Go ahead and DO YOU! cause'a'ra I'm def gonna Do ME!

The 50 Million Pound Challenge

I think this is one of the best ideas put together in a long time for the black community to come together as one , not only for our community , but for our well being and happiness... for those of you who are not up on the what's happening with what the wonderful Dr. Ian Smith has started, please check out his website on www.50millionpounds.com I for one sign up the minute I heard about it, and I have set a weight loss goal of 25lbs. Ive already lost 20lbs since having my son, so this is just another incentive to help keep me going. I loves everything about this challenge!!! Hey even Gayle King has joined, and I got a feeling Oprah will jump on board sooner or later, that is only if she is not afraid that this challenge doesn't include her main audience..... if you get what I'm saying! AND for the record for all of you that don't know I am the biggest number one Oprah fan, so no pun intended on that comment!!!! I just have to keep it real....and shoot for that matter I hope she proves me wrong!!!
