Fruition Friday: Yes we can

Happy Fruition Friday, and the fruition I want to talk about is the Presidents day it has been 5 days since Presidents and It came into my mind about this great President Barack Obama and his catchphrase "Yes We can". Almost 10 years ago, Barack was running for President. The impact of his running was against all odds where he was against Hillary Clinton, and even John McCain. The speech of his Yes we can speech was inspired to be turned into a song as well, led by Will.I.Am. The reason for this big speech well Possibly was because over the years the change continued from Martin Luther King to Malcolm X and even Jackie Robinson as well. Looking at so many possibilities of what happened where changed continued for decades and the blessing is there is always room for change as well.


"Yes We Can" Slogan began when we was running for Senate in 2004. He had his commercial speech, where he countered the terms They said "We couldn't, but Yes We Can." He was running for Senate and yes he did win Running for Senate. The term he used to have faith and to just simply believe was a real big thing to making a positive change. And having the positivity to making the impact where he was the first Black to be elected at Harvard Law. And then being elected as Senate was one of the best impact that was done as well. Seeing Him battle all the doubt and even succeeding was one of the impact that I found out he did, when I found out he was running for President I was like "Could this be happening, would he be a great run for President after a tough Presidential run from George Bush, So my first thought is OK what would happen if Barack Obama wins Presidency and what to expect as well. The good thing about him winning Presidency was a great history of him being the first black President. I could agree some decisions he has made has not been popular I could agree but however there were some good production he has done. Yeah he has faced some discrimination and even Impeachment as well. And all I could say is wow his presidency continued and then his departure was very memorable and even emotional as well, because he was a great president nevertheless. 


The reason of bringing this up is because The slogan "Yes We Can" can be used through action and proving that yes we can slogan can bring a ton of positivity by action. Apparently The term of proving someone wrong well is by action. Using the positivity can be great for trying to overcome the Impossible, where something that has never been done can still be accomplished by somebody. Even if you're not the first one the whole thing that matters is You took the leap into making the accomplishment and even attempt success is somewhere and on top of it can and will be a decision you won't regret.  Seeing the fact that he won the election was one of the biggest impact but the fact of the matter is the journey of his presidency is beginning. The point of the situation is when you make a first accomplishment it is time for a new journey and on top of that there is also more success to come as well. So with the "Yes We Can"  Yes you can do it.

Pursuit of Black History Month

Hey everybody Happy black history Month. The story of an rags to riches has been the most inspirational story and there has been great stories of those. I remember watching a great movie that talked about interesting rags to riches story. This great man made a great quote and it was "I was homeless, but I wasn't hopeless. I knew a better day was coming." Well this quote matched so well with his story and I was sure based on his struggles and based on the challenges he had to overcome, coming from so many struggles not just as an adult, but also in his childhood as well, and for sure it was the toughest obstacle from adult childhood. His situations had pushed him to extreme greatness and really got him studying and even pursuing the job he really wanted and even going after the opportunity and continuing to keep fighting and even finally getting the job he was hoping for. Hearing the term Pursuit of Happyness even though it is properly spelled Happiness, and oh man he did pursuit and he did succeeded. Going from being homeless to being a Multimillionaire was the biggest accomplishment, I don't care how many people have done it it continues to being one of the biggest accomplishments that is hard to do but was made easy by people who accomplished it. The person I am talking is Christopher Paul Gardner and oh man it was an inspiration remembering the movie Pursuit of Happyness, and watching the movie transitioned to something very surprising and uplifting.

I remember hearing the promotion of the movie, and then eventually watching this awesome movie and oh man  it was a complete phenomenon. The movie Pursuit of Happyness was one of the toughest movies and actually watching my mom go through those challenges even as a kid witnessing myself living in a small dinky apartment, even though I have gotten used to it and even though I can't compare to a situation to when Christopher Gardner was homeless. For me I never knew how it is like to be homeless, because even though I saw homeless people. I only imagine what it is like. When I was living in the apartment growing up the beginning was tough but however I adapted to living in the house and really seeing the simple life of it, however as we got older and my brother got his own house, he told me how he did not like the apartment we had to move into, it was 6 of us and man it was a tough situation but however when I heard from my mom the house was too small, man I was like aw man I am going to witness a move once again and oh man I couldn't believe it and man finally it was a relieve after in August when we finally move into the new house it was the best thing to have happen. 

I brought my personal story as an analogy where Chris was living in an apartment with his family, his wife and child, and the economic struggle in a personal preference was a tough situation. Watching the movie had some real insight where the girlfriend was always mad and apparently I couldn't blame her but however at the same time there could have been faith, just like what Chris Gardner said "It'll be fine." But unfortunately it wasn't the case where he was evicted from the apartment and had to travel from motel to motel and even having to spend the night in the bathroom and was very nervous and oh man it was completely hard to imagine. I remember my brother told me there are outdoor public restrooms where homeless people stay and even reference Pursuit of Happyness where the main character was homeless and had to stay in the bathroom overnight and wow I don't know how it feels to be in the bathroom overnight falling asleep in there. Oh man so hard to imagine. And then eventually getting the job and even the paycheck that was able to get him the home that he was hoping for. He eventually became a Multi Millionaire in succeeding in the job he ever wanted and was able to achieve after failing as a salesman, where he was selling medical supplies, and even density scanner which were obsolete.

The reason I brought this story up is to honor Chris Gardner in Black History Month, and as a rare famous multi millionaire entrepreneur. I feel his story was very interesting where as I watching the movie, and oh man I never knew this story would be where it became and having to get his hustle on and even working hard to make something happen if you want it, then you have to come out and then just get it. Basically pursuit of Happyness and even seeing people happy in the life they are living like me seeing one wrestler being happen in the life that she is living living the dream of being a wrestler can really mean something. For me it is not too late to pursuit the dream you want or I want, don't let anything or anyone stop you from doing what you trying to do or even let life hit you hard, Chris Gardner was a huge example of what it means to pursuit or even just simply fight his way out of it with positivity. Like the Quote said, "I was homeless but not hopeless. I knew the day would come."

Falling up/ Fail Forward Weekend

This Past Sunday had the revolutionary Women's Royal Rumble Match, and especially learning how the women in the Wrestling industry has build their way up. It took years and even an area that has been brought to another level, and a certain someone to bring the revolution out of the shadow and into the light of growth and even rocking the boat in the most positive way. Seeing how the women wrestling change overtime and on top of that seeing all the ups and downs over the years man it has been really hard to imagine as well. Going from being sexy. smart and powerful divas, to building the revolution and evolution of women.

When I was watching wrestling in 2009 and I was thinking oh the women are just as talented and they have power, but the matches were short and on top of that they weren't taken very seriously as well. I remember watching those wrestling matches where I played a song that last 4 minutes and it was as long as the wrestling match and man I couldn't believe it. It was a bit uninspiring to watch and the matches themselves were very disappointing to watch, but overtime there were a few good matches and a few talented wrestlers but weren't given the chance to really display themselves. Other times they just like I said were not taken very seriously and then overtime they were developing but still weren't getting the attention they were getting, but were having some or a fair amount of positive matches from time to time.

When I started watching NXT in 2013, and over the weeks I started to notice how good the matches were getting and on top of that the talent that was in the ring and how intriguing the matches would be getting when they get on up to the main roster. Well while that was happening there was a Divas a 9 on 9 Survivor series divas tag match where it was Total Divas vs WWE Divas. The match was extremely horrendous and really had to have the rematch the very next night and apparently they tried to recover from that disappointing evening the night before, and well it was a tough situation but then when you go down to NXT and see the phenomenal matches they have been having aw man they can just literally blow you away believe it or not. The Matches on NXT we're entertaining to watch and on top of that they were more entertaining to watch, so it really leaves me to be intrigued how it would change the main roster as well.

So my question was answered two years later, where Stephanie McMahon announced a new revolution after the retirement of a talented wrestler, we had fresh new faces that indeed changed women wrestling forever. Where it brought revolution to how women wrestling was in the early 2000s, or maybe the 90s as well. As years went on since 2015 they now became where they wrestled in the main event and then had the Hell in a Cell Match, and even then they had their own Royal Rumble Match. Over the years it took huge involvement and it may seem how development from Stephanie McMahon and Triple H who even had the women's first Iron Woman Match and even the Women's money in the bank. I remember mentioning it in my previous blog as well. So it is interesting how the revolution has build and how it became something the fans have gotten into as well.

The purpose of this blog if you read between the lines was to figure out how do you  find solution, how to figure how to figure how do you overcome failure and overcome mockery. Witnessing then and now and on top of that the development of the women revolution. You never know the possibility of what could happen if you just put in the work and let the project of your plan build because it takes alot of Observance to the problem and whether they had their ups and even their downs, there is nothing wrong with trying something different because apparently how do you build the system where you let things shine and let things come to fruition, because it takes work and it takes coming up with a new agenda and really takes exhibiting the talent and the potential that you see to make things in a possible way as well. Seeing the talent now and the women part of the revolution is a privilege but however couldn't be done if it wasn't for Stephanie McMahon stepping up and really rocking the boat, and I have to say there is nothing wrong with failure but the question is how are you overcoming it how are you looking to change and even bring a Positive Culture shock. You got to keep falling up don't fall down. Something is struggling it is always good to take the initiative to really make the failure into a success into bringing forward, because one thing about this is they never gave up and said it's over, they saw something outside of wrestling and brought it into wrestling as well.
