As I am sitting here at 05:38 am, at work just minding my business an old memory suddenly invades my thoughts.
I find myself smiling and then laughing as I suddenly realize that I had the ability to manifest years ago, unknowingly not knowing what manifestation was.Funny how as life takes shape those things that we knew intuitively began to come back to us, we begin to remember who we really are before the world taught us who to be.
I started to recall this childhood memory, but suddenly I remember that I wasn't that much of a child, I was a young teenage mother during the time that this idea began to take root. Ha, I was also in a relationship, I had my own place, a car and a job. I can’t control my laughter as I continue to write this post. As I am drifting down memory lane, I also remember I was an avid cartoon watcher and I am not talking about adult cartoons.
Whatever is taking place at this current time, I feel as if these thoughts fell into my mind because I just need to remember. I needed to remember that before I knew what path would befall me, I was already aligned to a higher power and tapped into my higher state of thinking.
Okay, I know it feels as if I am dragging this out, but I am so in awe that I recalled at this particular time and in this particular space, this young adult memory.
The cartoon that sparked this post was, “Pinky and the Brain”. Please say you remember Pinky and the Brain, I am probably telling my age. Pinky and the Brain were two mice, one a genius and the other his not so smart sidekick, the duo was hell bent on accomplishing one mission and that was to take over the world. Pinky would ask Brain every night, “What do you want to do tonight? The Brain would answer, “the same thing we do every night, Pinky-try to take over the world”.
The dynamic duo would come up with concpets after concepts to take over the world.
How ironic that as I sit here thinking of my next move, career wise and seeking guidance and direction on what that move should be, that memory fell into my Spirit. I love when Spirit shows up with those gentle,yet subtle reminders. How many times has this happened to you and you just dismissed it, or laughed it off as just a childhood memory without really sitting with it to innerstand why that particular memory is resurfacing now?
Well maybe it's just me, the deep thinker, over analyzer that finds deeper meaning into everything!
Each time that I would watch Pinky and the Brain I can recall taking action into making that goal of taking over the world a reality. That cartoon was a “planted seed”! My first attempt at entrepreneurship was painting nails. I would sit on the step of my apartment and polish the girls toe nails in the neighborhood. I would paint a design on each toe, one by one, lol. I see it clearly as if it occurred yesterday. My daughter, my cousins, my neighbor Kee, whoever was willing to let me practice on their toes; and I only charged $5.00. This lside hustle lasted for a few months, but this wasnt the "take over the world", idea I was searching for, back to the drawing board.
My next venture into entrepreneurship was doing hair. I became a self taught hair braider; my daughter was my first client, oh the perks of having a live mannequin head to practice on.
Wow! Looking back over these memories and not knowing what entrepreneurship or manifestation was I wish I had someone in my reality that would have helped me to water them seeds. Braiding hair was the one idea that brought me an abundance of money on a daily basis, and took me out of the rat race of working a 9-5. Oh, sweet memories! These reflections remind me of that saying, “if I would have known then what I know now!”. I made so much money from braiding hair, I had a steady clientele and again I made so much money I did not have to work. Looking back now, this venture very well could have been the take over the world plan, if I would have has the proper guidance to teach me the ropes of finacial literacy and also entrepenurship.
When I speak on the concept of taking over the world, I am referencing my immediate environemnt, the reality or timeline that I was residing on during that time. However, as I am writing this and knowing the power behind thoughts that level of thinking could be viewed at as thinking too small.
However, this memory came back to me for a reason and maybe it's a possibility, a calling from my inner child to remember that it's still not too late to take over the world. What ideas have I placed on the back burner without investing my all into them? Im learning that our idea and
measure of success is contingent on how we define success from all aspects, beginning with the example of success we witnessed as children.
My idea of taking over the world today of course has changed from what it meant to me back then. During that chapter of my life, the freedom to have money and live life free from the poverty that surrounded me was the goal, honeslty taking over the world meant being rich. I could go shopping as I pleased, keep my hair done and my daughter lacked for nothing, I could drive a fancy car, live in the nice house, or even just furnish my home with objects that I considered luxury. Today the ideology of taking over the world has shifted, slightly but the underlying concept remains the same, coming up with that one idea that will be a game changer and has the power to change my world.
That song by Tye Tribbet just fell into my Spirit, “If He did it before He can do it again same God right now, same God right now!”. Maybe that was the purpose of this memory evading my thoughts to remind me, so that I could share with you that it's never too late to revise an old dream.
Currently, I am a writer turned Author and the grandparent to two beautiful children. My plan to take over the world isn't just about the money any more, while that too is part of the plan. The plan to take over the world is more about legacy and breaking generational curses, shifting the mindset from one of poverty and scarcity to one of abundance and generational wealth. Standing in my truth and speaking my truth, the freedom to use my gifts to make room for me as well as those connected to my bloodline and the individuals that need to hear my message so their healing can begin.
Please don't overlook those memories that all of a sudden appear, they very well could be a gentle reminder, a gentle push, a gentle spark to get you to remember that childhood idea that has the power to manifest into a something concrete to propel you into your destiny.
As I was driving home from my place of employment, the first angel number that crossed my path was 888. This for me is conformation from my angels that I am headed into a season of proserity and financial abundance. Why is this relevant? I am glad you asked. When you are in alignment with your highest self and with Source (God) instances such as these are not viewed as mere coincidences. I know for me its more so again, confirmation.
Oftentimes if not most the signs and answers that we seek are right in front of us yet we dismiss them as coincidences. What if nothing just happens actually held validity? Would it increase your faith, your belief in the fact that there is a Higher Power conspiring to bring everthing that you desire, every thought, every dream you have ever had, even as a child into a touchable manifestaion.
If this post sparked a childhood memory within you that you have buried and forgotten, let me know. You know this is a two way dialogue and interactive, I would love to talk with you and share memories as we continue to heal and set out inner child free.
