💪🏽 Be Someone Who Still Tries

We all love a success story — the “I did it once, and everything fell perfectly into place” type. But let’s be honest… most of us don’t live in that story. We live in the try again story. The wipe your tears and start over story. The Lord, give me strength to keep going story.

See, the real conquerors aren’t the ones who succeeded once and stopped; they’re the ones who kept showing up even when no one was clapping. The ones who refused to let failure define them. Success isn’t a single event — it’s the outcome of consistent courage.

There was a man who tried to start a bakery. His first batch of bread came out like stones. The second batch? Slightly softer stones. By the third, he was ready to give up… until a friend said, “At least you’ve learned what not to do.” That stuck with him. He kept trying — adjusting, learning, improving — until people started lining up outside his bakery every morning.
Now, was he successful because of his first try? Nope. He became successful because he didn’t stop trying.

That’s the truth of life — success shouldn’t be declared after a one-time attempt. Real success is proven over time, through persistence and faith. Every try makes you wiser, stronger, and closer to the goal.

So, if life has thrown failures, frustrations, or heartache your way — congratulations, you’re human. But don’t stop there. Muster up the courage to try again, even if your hands are trembling. Because every time you try, heaven takes note — and your story becomes more powerful.

Remember: the person who keeps trying is the real winner.

☕😒 “Don’t Talk to Me Until I’ve Had My Coffee!”

(A Funny But True BECB Life Lesson)

So, imagine this.

Sandra walks into the office one Monday morning looking like she wrestled with her alarm clock and lost. Her hair says “I tried,” her eyes say “I didn’t sleep,” and her mouth says, “Don’t talk to me until I’ve had my coffee.”

Everyone around her quickly learns the rule — don’t greet Sandra before 9:30 a.m., don’t smile too loudly, and whatever you do, don’t ask how she’s doing!

Now, a few hours later, coffee finally in hand, Sandra’s mood changes. Suddenly, she’s all smiles. “Good morning, everyone!” she beams — as if the earlier version of her was a distant relative. But guess what? By now, everyone’s already quietly avoiding her.

Then she sighs, “People are just not friendly these days.”
Ma’am… really? 😅

Let’s be honest — some of us have mastered the art of bad energy and then act surprised when it comes back around. We say things like:
🌀 “I have mood swings.”
🌀 “I’m not a people person.”
🌀 “I just like my space.”

That’s fine — but sometimes, these are just fancy ways of saying, “I don’t want to grow.”

Here’s the truth nobody likes to hear: you can’t sow bad energy and expect good vibes in return. Life doesn’t work that way. You can’t plant onions and expect mangoes to grow. 🌱

You reap what you sow — and usually with interest!
If you sow coldness, expect a full-blown winter. ❄️
If you sow kindness, you’ll harvest sunshine in abundance. ☀️

Before you complain that people are distant, ask yourself — what kind of atmosphere have I been creating?

Being kind doesn’t mean you have to fake a smile 24/7. It simply means treating people like they matter, even when you’re not in your best mood. You can need coffee and still be courteous. You can need space and still be gentle. You can have mood swings — just don’t let them knock people down as they swing! 😂

So next time you’re tempted to say, “Don’t talk to me until I’ve had my coffee,” maybe try, “Good morning… but please make it decaf-level quiet.” ☕😄

Because whatever you release into the world — love, laughter, warmth, or crankiness — will always find its way back to you.

✨ Be the energy you want to attract.
✨ Sow kindness — it always comes back, pressed down, shaken together, and spilling over your coffee cup.
