Twice a month I will share with you my truth and nothin’ but the truth. Sometimes my truth is about how I did the doggone thing and rocked it. Other times, my truth is about how I totally screwed the thing up. The cool thing about screwing up is that I learn and try it again.

I think back on every endeavor that I have tried and either it was a huge success or it was heck of a lesson of what NOT to do next time. Sometimes learning what NOT TO DO is more powerful than what you actually should do.
Launching Urban Verbiage was an exciting experience. One of the best things I learned is that planning is actually not a bad idea! Go figure! So, my truth today is CONSISTENCY!!! I can’t roll over in bed and say, "Hmmm, what shall I post today?" Or "What am I going to do for UV today?" I gotta be intentional and consistent.
