I just lost my job of 16 years 🤦🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️

Hello everyone, I hope you all are doing good on this beautiful Thursday. I want to add a little positivity to the world today. I recently found out that my job will no longer need my services in a few weeks. In the security business we all brace ourselves for these types of moments because that’s how it goes in this industry. First of all I’m not bitter, although I’ve worked for different companies, I remained on this job site for 16 years, this is very unusual because most clients prefer new faces every 3-5 years or so, this particular site always recommended for me to stay when potential security companies came to pitch their bids. So to say that I’ve been blessed is an understatement. I’m so grateful for the opportunity to serve such a prestigious community for so many years and this may be a small setback for me and my family but I know God has bigger plans for me. I’m not going to lie, anxiety has kicked in a bit when I was looking over my finances this week and the thought of ending this blog has crossed my mind but I came to the conclusion that this blog is my therapy and went ahead and paid for my domain name and subscription for another year. Shoutout to you for inspiring me to write, without my readers, there would be no boohardy.com. Be Blessed!

Think Big Sunday With Marsha

For those who have been following my blog you know I am a softie for picture quotes with positive messages. I’m always looking for new ways to express myself so I started an account on Twitter in 2011 and soon after I started my blog on this platform around 2015. My goal was to build an audience and grow my brand into a positive movement, to do that I needed to find an ecosystem to help me grow. Soon there after I ran across Marsha Wright’s profile and back then there were only a few (you can count on one hand) young black women in the entrepreneurial space and all of her posts were inspirational and educational, Marsha was way before her time. It was beautiful to see a black woman who is a CEO be so humble and kind on social media and she is a very giving person as well. On Sunday’s Ms Wright started an hashtag that allow writers like myself to be exposed to her 500K plus followers with positive posts and affirmations and the name of the hashtag is #ThinkBigSundayWithMarsha. The impact has been huge, I truly believe reading those positive quotes has changed how I look at the world and the people in it. Without a doubt Marsha’s generosity helped me grow my blog and my perspective where it is today and for that I am forever grateful. If you are on Twitter please follow Real Marsha Wright, you won’t be disappointed.
