GOODBYE 2018
“learn to honor the hard lessons that life taught me. I had to courageously share my story and victory over colon cancer and prostate cancer. I had to learn how to respond to the little shockwaves that kept showing up in my life. I experienced the storms, fires, and hurricanes of life and through the conflicts of life, I was able to grow, and for that I am thankful. I had to learn to see my way through the smoke after the fires of life were extinguished. Yes, I had some storms on the sea of life, but each time a storm hit, I was able to adjust my sail and continue the journey.” Uncle Paul

When you stay focused on what you can change, you will be able to conquer any roadblock in your path.”

Uncle Paul’s Tips On Overcoming Roadblocks
“Understand that there will be some bumps in the road of life. Life has a lot of twists and turns, and we should not get upset when we hit a bump, or when we fall into the potholes of life, on our journey. We are going to experience ups and downs, twists and turns, detours and trials along the way; it is all a part of life.” Uncle Paul
You Don't Know My Story
“You don't know my real story. You don’t really know me. Why? Because we only show you the person you want to see and not the person that they really are. With most of us, it was more about us wanting someone to be the right person, than actually taking the time to see who they really were. We don’t understand anything until we’re able to unearth our truths, and those aspects of our souls that we wished didn’t exist.” Uncle Paul
Do The Best You Can With What You Have
“All life is asking us to do, is the best we can, with what we have. We must do the best we can, where we are, until I can do better. Once we know better, we can do better.”

If You Want It, Get It

The question that one must ask themselves is, how bad do you want it? The answer is simply this; you don’t want it bad enough. Because if you wanted it bad enough, you would already have it.”
Obstacles Are Not Our Enemies
“Obstacles don’t have to stop us if we run into a wall, don’t turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, how to go through it, or work around it.” Uncle Paul
Stop Making Excuses - Start Living Your Life
“To get the results we want, we have to ditch the excuses that are invalidating our calling and our purpose. We must stop excusing our failures and start taking the steps that are necessary to get what you want out of life. Look, new opportunities lie hidden around every corner. However, we will never find them if our minds are riddled with never-ending excuses. Without a doubt, we will all encounter many obstacles on our journey. That’s a given. We can overcome our obstacles or make excuses; it’s as simple as that.” Uncle Paul
We Can’t Change People
“Instead of trying to change people, we can either accept people for who they are, or we can choose to live our lives without them. Remember this, you can love people, but you can’t change people.” Uncle Paul
It's Your Life - Life It
“Everyone has an opinion on what we should be doing with our lives. But the truth is, it’s your life, and you should do what you want. It’s your life, live it, love it, celebrate it, lie every moment.” Uncle Paul
Love Thyself First
“One will never be truly happy until they first love themselves. When you practice self-love and self-respect, you give yourself the opportunity to be happy. When you are happy, you will stop putting everyone else’s needs first and take time for yourself. When you are happy, you will make yourself, your highest priority.” Uncle Paul
