00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,600
Good morning, good afternoon and good evening everybody. It's your girl Sonya McQueen with it's your life. What are you doing with it?

2
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:11,220
Question I always have questions, right?

3
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:18,740
Are you unhappy that the way you wanted things to go aren't going that away

4
00:00:19,240 --> 00:00:23,240
are you sad that you're making these plans and

5
00:00:23,240 --> 00:00:30,000
And nothing is working in your favor and it's just so upsetting, right?

6
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:33,320
you you make these plans and

7
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:39,640
Stuff starts happening and it gets in the way of what you're trying to accomplish

8
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:44,200
And it is so upsetting and you spend so much time

9
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:51,720
Trying to figure out how to get back on track or where you went wrong or do you have the wrong people around you?

10
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:59,880
Are you are you putting your faith in the wrong people? Are you are you going about getting to this goal the wrong way and?

11
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:03,280
Every move you make

12
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:09,140
Nothing is right. You're bumping your head to the left. You're bumping your head to the right and

13
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:11,920
You're you're wondering

14
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:14,800
God, what am I doing wrong?

15
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,040
Maybe you're not listening I

16
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:25,400
Am here to tell you your plans might not equal what his plans are for you

17
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:33,520
And if his plans are not the direction you're trying to go in he might keep throwing roadblocks up

18
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,520
take a step back and

19
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,360
quit thinking about all

20
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,080
The things going wrong

21
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:46,920
Pray about are you following the right path?

22
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,520
Is this really where he wants you to go?

23
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:56,000
Is this truly your purpose what you're trying to do or is it just something you want to do?

24
00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:02,320
You know, I've said this before and and it's honestly not to knock anybody. Maybe the first time I said it it was to

25
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:07,320
Do a I'm talking about you moment, but you know, I've grown past that

26
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:15,080
When I wrote my first book, I didn't know any authors not a single one personally and I am an avid reader an avid reader

27
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:21,720
But I didn't know anybody who wrote a book and I I wrote the book and it wasn't on purpose

28
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:26,240
I didn't sit down and decided to write a book. I was writing my feelings and a book came out

29
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:29,960
And the book was published and it did very very well

30
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:35,960
And then friends of mine seen this and they were like well, I could write a book if you could write a book and it do well

31
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:39,440
I want to be rich. I wasn't rich

32
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:47,720
What they seen as favor for me was people reaching out to me asking me to come speak about my book asking me to be on their

33
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:53,040
Radio show asking me to be on their TV show asking me to do this asking me to do that

34
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,440
And that's what they wanted and they started going after it and

35
00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:59,120
Of course

36
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,440
It wasn't a great success for any of them. You know why?

37
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,680
They got off of their path

38
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:10,640
To follow my path and that wasn't what got ordained for them

39
00:03:10,640 --> 00:03:16,920
And maybe one of them did do well, but she did well for all the wrong reasons

40
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:24,720
All the wrong reasons and then you have people who see other people do things

41
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:31,640
Great. There is a beautiful butterfly. I have never seen I am so sorry. I

42
00:03:31,640 --> 00:03:35,960
Have never seen that I can remember a butterfly

43
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:43,800
Here in South Florida and it's outside my bedroom a second-story bedroom window

44
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:49,920
Unless it's a bad. I'm so sorry. I digger. I am so sorry you guys but anyway

45
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:59,120
So often people see their friends do well and instead of just being so proud for their friends and giving them support and backing them

46
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,200
they feel some kind of way and

47
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:05,040
Either they secretly or openly start looking into doing

48
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:10,800
What the friend does so that they can be great too and it's never a success. You know why?

49
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,600
That's not your path. That's your friends path

50
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:20,600
You're fake friend kind of if you're really envious, but that's your friends path

51
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:27,280
You've got to know what you're doing is really what your purpose to do

52
00:04:27,280 --> 00:04:31,800
You really got to know it and when you start seeing

53
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:38,560
Things going wrong one thing after another after another don't get upset stand back

54
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,800
It ask God

55
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:46,200
Is this the road I'm supposed to be on is this the route I'm supposed to be taking

56
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:51,560
Maybe he is trying to teach you about adversity. Maybe everything in your life has been so smooth and easy

57
00:04:51,840 --> 00:04:53,840
He wants you to grow

58
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:56,520
And learn patience

59
00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:01,880
He wants you to learn that everything doesn't go right the first time so you're not disappointed down the line

60
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,760
Maybe that's it or maybe you're just on the wrong path altogether

61
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,000
Maybe you're on your way from Missouri

62
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:17,540
To Las Vegas and you were supposed to be on your way from Missouri to Virginia. You're just going the totally wrong

63
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,120
direction

64
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,720
Along that line, let me say this

65
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:28,440
Sometimes you get an answer and it's just not the answer you want. I've been there

66
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:35,600
Don't be surprised when you fight that answer and you go your own way if you see yourself

67
00:05:36,280 --> 00:05:41,640
Several years down the line on the path right back to where you didn't want to go

68
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,520
You cannot outrun your purpose

69
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:50,960
I'm pretty fast. I'm 53 and I could still beat my eight-year-old granddaughter

70
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:58,040
And a race, you know, I could probably beat a lot of y'all too, but I'm still pretty fast

71
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:02,280
I really am I can I can book I can get it up and go

72
00:06:02,840 --> 00:06:04,840
But I cannot outrun that purpose

73
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,960
Did I have marathon last year this year? I'm only gonna run 10 miles

74
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:13,480
Still it'll be sitting there waiting on me when I hit the finish line

75
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,480
You know why?

76
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,060
Your purpose is just that it's your purpose

77
00:06:19,060 --> 00:06:22,420
Even if you don't pick it up and follow it

78
00:06:23,060 --> 00:06:26,340
That just means you didn't do really what God

79
00:06:27,340 --> 00:06:33,220
Deemed for you to do what he placed you on this earth to do what he blessed you to do and

80
00:06:33,740 --> 00:06:37,100
If you don't believe in God, that's okay too. It's okay

81
00:06:38,100 --> 00:06:42,980
But that doesn't mean that you can do any and everything that you think about

82
00:06:43,540 --> 00:06:45,900
There are just things you're really really good at

83
00:06:45,900 --> 00:06:51,620
Stick to them stick to them and if those things are hurting other people

84
00:06:52,380 --> 00:06:54,380
You're never gonna win

85
00:06:54,700 --> 00:06:59,920
You're never gonna win. This is a very short podcast and I did this one because

86
00:07:01,140 --> 00:07:07,380
Someone said to me that they are not able they cannot figure out

87
00:07:07,580 --> 00:07:11,060
Why what they're doing is not coming to fruition

88
00:07:11,060 --> 00:07:17,180
No matter what they're doing and how hard they're working in the the relationships every relationship

89
00:07:17,180 --> 00:07:20,780
They build around this purpose falls through

90
00:07:21,420 --> 00:07:24,100
Either the people don't bother with her anymore

91
00:07:24,100 --> 00:07:30,340
She don't bother with them anymore or she feels like they're trying to steal her ideas or whatever and nothing is

92
00:07:30,540 --> 00:07:34,580
panning through and she's been at it for six years and

93
00:07:35,140 --> 00:07:36,620
I said

94
00:07:36,620 --> 00:07:44,060
Maybe you're going the wrong direction. Maybe that's not your purpose at all and we had a long talk about it and

95
00:07:44,660 --> 00:07:49,540
She thought about some things and she was like, maybe you're right. I have a friend

96
00:07:50,900 --> 00:07:52,900
Not gonna mention her either but

97
00:07:53,700 --> 00:07:59,460
For years and years and years her son wanted to be a rapper, you know, that was where his heart was and

98
00:08:00,100 --> 00:08:03,100
He's just been in a funk. He's been in a funk

99
00:08:03,100 --> 00:08:07,260
You know, he's not happy with the way things are going and all of a sudden he

100
00:08:08,020 --> 00:08:10,020
Changed his purpose

101
00:08:10,700 --> 00:08:15,500
his in his mind because his purpose never changed and I

102
00:08:16,420 --> 00:08:21,820
Honestly can see nothing but happiness coming into his life now. I know his mom's pleased

103
00:08:21,820 --> 00:08:26,020
I know his sister's pleased. I know his cousin's pleased. I know his dad's pleased

104
00:08:26,580 --> 00:08:32,220
So I see nothing but greatness coming because when she told me I

105
00:08:32,220 --> 00:08:34,220
Felt it. I

106
00:08:34,740 --> 00:08:36,100
Was like, yes

107
00:08:36,100 --> 00:08:39,140
Yes, he's gonna find a lot of happiness here

108
00:08:39,420 --> 00:08:45,860
So you guys when you're going one route and things just keep falling apart and falling apart and falling apart

109
00:08:45,860 --> 00:08:51,420
You think that this is your forever dream job or dream purpose. Maybe you're wrong

110
00:08:53,020 --> 00:08:56,940
