Project Success

Success is never accidental. It is intentional and happens divinely on purpose. Success is the direct end result of a 3 step equation:

 

Vision + Planning + Execution =Success

 

Looks and sounds pretty simple, right? Well, I won’t sit here and say you won’t have variables along the way because you will and in the world of project management we even make a plan for that too. But in some ways, reaching success really is that simply. And this is how we do it:

 

  • Create the vision. Visualize the life that you. Determine what success looks like in your world and write it down.
  • Create the Plan. Plans are simply an outline of how we are going to get to where we are to where we want to be. You must have a blueprint for your business. Even the most skilled architect does not begin working on a building without at the bare minimum sketching of a design. Your plan or design for your business must be written down and easily accessible. Plans are mean to be modified as needs and sometimes even visions change.
  • Execute! Let’s face it, what good is a plan that is just sitting on your desk or on a computer file and it isn’t being executed? Put target dates by particular goals within your plan, in project management we call those milestones. And most importantly, get to work! Having someone to be accountable to is always great way to insure milestones are being meet and you are on target to reach your goals.

Without a clear vision, proper planning and execution you will find yourself spinning your wheels and spending countless hours and pouring countless resources into a black hole. Many of us have heard this particular bible verse at some point in our lives:

Proverbs 29:18 “Without a vision, the people will perish”.

The same holds true for your business. Without a vision, without a plan, without proper execution of the plan – you will not reach the level of success that you say that you want.

 

As a small business owner, no one says you have to do any of these steps alone. Develop a team of like-minded friends and family to assist you. There are also wonderful companies, such as Empress (I know shameless plug), that will help you define your vision and create your plan, and will provide support through the process.

Black women can’t get married, black women are getting fat, black women are ugly, black women are suffering mental health issues, black woman took a relentless bashing in 2011. I was appalled to she not only the discriminatory material published on black women but more so at the frequency. What is this obsessive interest in the failings of black women?

 

Two the most offensive pieces seen on black women in 2011 was the report published by Pyscology today, labelling on accounts of scientific research that black women are the ugliest women of all the races and then just recently the Dutch magazine that referred to the singer Rihanna in the title of the article as the "Ultimate Niggabitch". Unbelievable, unacceptable and just racist. Would such defamatory material be published on white, muslim, jewish, or women of other races? Black women are no lower or less deserving of respect than any other race.

 

10744075470?profile=original

The main areas of this anti-black woman media bashing.

Social research is often not a matter of finding truth or fact but instead finding evidence to support a pre-decided theory, where the truth is bent to fit the theory and not the theory to fit the truth. The point here is not that all these reports are lying and that there are not marital issues within the black community or an increase in obesity, however the facts are presented in a jaundiced manner. It’s easy to say that 42 percent of black women are not yet married, if in that 42 percent women under the age of sixteen are included or if the two to one ratio of men to women is not taken into account. Further, didn’t marriage rates decrease and divorce rates increase across the board in western society? This is not a problem unique to the black community and we do not have a monopoly on social vices.
 

There are so many reports that take social vices and concentrate on pointing out the black community as the black sheep, when many of such vices are shares across all races. However, the media presents its reports in a way that leaves the question in the readers mind of “what’s wrong with black women?”
 

"Propaganda is a form of communication that is aimed at influencing the attitude of a community toward some cause or position so as to benefit oneself or one's group." - Wiki
 

I’m concerned that a terrible impression of black women is being moulded. Common misconceptions of black women are being exaggerate and exploited by the media, putting the black women more than 50 years behind time. Black women must stand and step out of the shadow of prejudiced judgment.
 

In Love & Marriage: Happy Black Women Would be Bad for Media Business, writer Theresa Lasbrey argues that the media launched an “anti-black woman campaign” to counter the image of the Obamas. She writes that the media screams, “The Obamas are not the norm! Do not dream of this for yourself! It is just coincidence that in 2011 every month came with some form of anti black woman report or “study”?
 

Such media slurs promote self-hate and batters the esteem of black women. We are constantly being told that something is wrong with us, that black men don’t love us, that we are fat, ugly, stupid, loud, poor, difficult etc. Worse still this persistent negative bashing has both blacks and whites believing that there is something wrong with black women in particular.
 

In surveys of predominantly white participants, negative results are reported as an increase in "something" of women, not an increase of "something" in “white” women. Why so race specific when a particular social vice is high in the black community although it is present for all races such as decrease in marriage and increase obesity.
 

The situation worsens when black people join the anti-black woman media campaign.The Denzel Principle: Why a Black Woman Can’t Find a Good Black Man, blames black women for setting their standards too high, being too picky, not just settling for any man that sets eyes on them.
 

Unfortunately, we tend to believe that publications in books or reputable newspaper means that the information must be a valid source of truth. Perhaps that was the case some years ago, but in our times, it’s more often a valid source of someones opinion, as seen by the following popular media outlets.

The Nightline multi-part special entitled “Why Can’t a Successful Black Woman Find a Man?” again blames the character and goals of black women as the hinderance to us finding a man.

 

The Economist article, Sex and the Single Black Woman: How The Mass Incarceration Of Black Men Hurts Black Women, contributes to the scare campaign.


The Media should to be held accountable for publishing content promoting racial discrimination and Black Media needs to stop assisting the character assassination of its own people and instead writing about solutions where problems exist.
 

Say “No More”, to anti-black woman media bashing by signing this petition created by All Black Woman. We have already addressed the petition to some of the most outrageous publications of 2011 and intend to name and shame those who would continue such discriminatory behaviour in 2012 by adding them to the petition list. Black Sista will be watching!

The Skinny on Skincare: Super foods

superfoods%20sign.jpg

Super foods is the name given to a diverse group of foods found in nature. They are loaded with antioxidants, which has the ability to get rid of free radicals, resulting in less disease, great skin and longer life. 
Super foods can be found in, fruits, herbs, dark green leafy veggies and sea weed. Of course, by no means should you rely solely on these foods for all the nutrients that your body needs. Incorporating them in your diet, regularly, will help in the fight against disease and premature aging. In addition, it won't hurt to use skin care products that contain super food extracts because, when applied directly to the skin, the antioxidants are readily absorbed into the cells.
Examples of super foods include
  • strawberries 
  • gogi berries also called wolfberry 
  • acai 
  • spurilina 
  • beans 
  • pomegranate 
  • blueberries 
  • oats 
  • oranges 
  • broccoli 
  • soy 
  • spinach 
  • salmon
  • tomatoes

BlogBook_250x280-150x150.jpgToday marks the launch of my new website, www.TamykaWashington.com and the official release of my latest eBook: How to Build Your Business with Blogging where I share tips on how to establish your brand, build community and create multiple streams of income from blogging. (You can download it for FREE!)

The purpose of this new site is simple, I want to share with you the importance of Content Marketing and how it should be the soul foundation of your online business.

In 2009, when I first created my business, (TheCEOMamma), I was starting from scratch. I had a ZERO advertising budget and my brand was NEVER heard of. I knew in order to quickly build my business and create awareness, I had to use content to attract my ideal clients and use social media to share my content.

It was a no-brainer, marketing content would be the easiest way to do that because I had to let people know about me before I could start selling my products and services. People buy from people they know, like and trust so I had to give value and create a genuine connection with my readers.

Content Marketing combined with effective Social Networking & Social Media Marketing is a powerful way to build your business quickly with little to no start-up costs. How do I know? Because these are the methods I used (and continue to use), to build my business and create buzz for my brand.

In 2012, I will guide you if you:

  • Are starting a new business, are on a limited budget and want to learn effective strategies to establish your brand and business using content.
  • Have a business and want to discover how to use content to create a credible brand online and attract your ideal clients and increase sales.
  • Want to learn how to use content to build your mailing list, fill your pipeline, convert prospects to buyers and incorporate social media into your marketing plan.


I will be sharing many tips, resources and strategies so be sure to subscribe to my blog and stay in the know. I also encourage you to stay connected with me on my Facebook Page, so we can stay in touch…I’d love to hear from you!
