What's For You Is For You

WHO IS KANDICE - 4 PILLARS
"What's For You Is For You"
This saying saved my life. It became my number one mantra. When things worked out, I knew it was for me. When things didn't work out, I knew it wasn't for me. Every delay, every denial, every rejection, every opportunity - was all working for my good. One of my favorite scriptures is Romans 8:28 - For all things work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to His purpose. To me, this means that everything God allows to happen or not happen is part of my purpose. This is a concept that was easier understood in retrospect. When you're going through your struggles and crying hard every day - you're only thought is, "why me?" On the other side of the pain is when you begin to see the reasoning why God allowed you to endure so much pain. Not only does it build your mental strength, but you begin to encounter other people who are at where you have been; they are experiencing the same pain that you have overcome. And you can reach out to them and tell them how you overcame. There's a place in the Bible where The Apostle Paul says, "We are not strengthened so that we can be strong, but so that we can strengthen others." The Bible also says that we are overcome by the words of our testimony. Being able to tell my story is my strength. My strength helps others be strong. All of the thousands of nights I cried was to help others dry their tears. So everything - the good, the bad, and the ugly - and it was all FOR ME.
"You Are What You Do"
I was talking to someone one day and I was telling them how I was this nice person. They began to list all the mean things I had done to them. He said, "you're not nice simply because you tell me that you are nice - you are what you do". This stuck with me. The old adage is: Actions speak louder than words. If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck, it's a duck. You are what you do. If my desire is to be great, I have to do great things. When my strongest desire became to be a good person, I became more aware of all my actions. It made me pause and evaluate - is what I'm doing good - is it genuine - is it pure - is it with good intention? Now, I am what I do. I am a boss because I employ people and guide the business into elevation and functionality. By examining our actions, we can determine our outcomes.
"Focus On Your Solutions and Not Your Problems"
When I first began my journey of self-transformation in 2017, I studied Law of Attraction. Simply put, where focus goes - things expand. Or in the words of my PR Rep, Mama Carla, "if you don't feed it, it won't grow." Many of us continue to have "problems" in our lives because we are always focusing on and talking about our problems. I conditioned my mind to only focus on solutions. As soon as I hear about a problem or as soon as I have a problem, I automatically begin strategizing on the solution. I believe that EVERY problem has a solution. My solution-based approach about my life became my strategy for my clients. I begin with the end in mind. What is the desired outcome? By focusing there, I can construct the steps to get to the desired outcome. I focus on solutions and solutions always come to me.
"Give Every Day, Every Situation, Every Relationship Your Best"
As a mom, I thought that my parenting would yield my child doing everything I had taught him to do. This was not the case. He had his own personality - he was his own human who made his own choices. In the beginning, I would question where I went wrong. One day in my frustration, I was venting to my PR Rep, Mama Carla, and I told her, "no matter who Justin turns out to be - I have given him my absolute best - and I am okay with it." After that conversation - my spirit whispered to me, "keep that same energy in every area of your life." I began to examine my actions and made adjustments. In every conversation, in every situation, in every relationship, I began to give my best. I had to first learn what my best looked like. My best was removing emotion, removing judgment, removing bias, and acting based upon what is right - what is the desired outcome - what will add light to the situation. I ask myself daily, "Am I adding light?" At the end of each night, I will not go to sleep unless I know that I have done as much as I can for the day and given each day my absolute best.
