People act like black vegetarians are fictional characters. As if it’s completely unbelievable for a black person to maintain such a diet, or find a beautiful array of vegetables and fruits to be more appetizing than the #4 Baconator from Wendy’s. I in fact am not a vegetarian, but that doesn’t…

If it’s not broke don’t fix it. I’m just sayin’ if you wrote a book, next year write 2 books. If you sold 3 houses, next year sell 9 houses. If your business plan flopped, revise that mf and make 2 more business plans next year! If you doubled your income this year, get creative next year and triple your income next year!

It’s enough pie out here for everybody to not just have a piece but to have their own damn pie!
