Emotions'll Have You Broke!

My poison of the "one eyed devil" (what old people refer to the tv as) is Making the Band 4. Say what you want, but sometimes Diddy really does speak the truth about certain success related principles.

This past episode, when danity kane was bickering about what they didn't like about being in the group, he interrupted and said "emotions'll have you broke!"

"You'll be watching the MTV awards 10 years from now" sayin what could have been.....

Think about it (and I write this for my ladies but some men may relate), emotions move you to do certain things. I.e the word "motion" in emotion.

When you get angry, you react a certain way. When you're sad, happy, excited etc. but these "emotions" can be dangerous.

All too often us women let our emotions get in the way of handling business and actively , keyword ACTIVELY pursuing our goals.

Example, a woman is so in love and has all this business and opportunity coming her way BUT when her "man" calls on her or hurts her or wants to spend time with her....she drops everything. Just for a few days (she says), oh it's just a few weeks...and then before you know it a whole year has gone by and the opportunity is gone.

Meanwhile, that "man" got a call two days ago to help him further pursue his dream BUT he has to leave you in order to do it. He's packed and gone in less than a week! You gave him your time and sacrificed your dreams. So now what do you do?

I'm not knockin being in love BUT I am knockin letting love and the emotions that may come with it "knock you off your high horse"(distract and detur you).

Don't look back 10 years from now, 20 years sayin "man, I was so fine, I had such a good life and I let (fill in the blank) ruin me by taking over my thoughts!"

You decide what you think about and what you do. Not your emotions!
