✨👩🏽‍💻💭✨

Welcome to my blog ! ! ! !! !! ! ! !

I am over-loaded with inspiration and love from those around me, which this blog is a testament to.

Plus, I live a pretty awesome life and it seems

to only get better, it'd be selfish for me not to share it with you.

It is also inevitable for me not to rise with the support I am blessed to have. As I live to grow using what I learned yesterday, I am addicted to bettering myself, for myself, but definitely not by myself because it real life takes a village.

Now as I enter into womanhood on my own time, I realize bettering myself must be done by myself.

I've learned, as I distanced myself from people, situations, products, habits and trends to find self, I have found myself.

Before I commit to anything, I must commit to who I am. The foundation in which I am planted🥀

If I do not commit to who I am, how can I genuinely be loyal to anyone or anything else? If I've never experience self love, how can I know or be aware of what I serve to or receive from others, as love?

You get what you give in this life, and that my friend is called karma.

If you do not see the fault in your own actions, they will continue until you are forced to examine your situation closer. Life is so beautiful man. Lately, I've been very introspective and observant of its beauty and Ive noticed some 💎 things worth sharing. To start, Ive noticed that the effort we put forth will multiply. Also, a wise man seldom speaks. Now knowing this, I play my role and well honey.

Plus this writing skill has always been my strong suit and

Computers make 🖖🏾it fun and profitable now 😁

So why not? At this current moment, I have been living this here beautiful life attempting to make the best decisions using the best resources I have. We all have! Think about it..up until this very moment we all have essentially survived our entire lives. In the face of trauma, heartbreaks, failures, successes, and tossed between the lack of and connection to knowledge, we are here. The most we've ever known is right now.

But thats how it is for everyone...

That is why we do not always see eye to eye, but somehow we are here. TOGETHER. Sharing this planet with the birds, bees, oceans and stars. And some how it all coincides, for the most part.

We all want to see tomorrow.

And it is in that space that infinity is. You are here📍 in this moment reading this. You are amazing; epic actually. Hello there you amazing survivor warrior you.

Understanding that very notion, I decided to create a lifestyle blog. A blog about what the heck is Jessica doing, because she's

lit. ♛

Now that I think about it, it would be weird if your jumping into Jess's life, with no real introduction.

Unless you already know me🤔... If not, you're probably like who is this girl?

I promise we'll get to that...

In the meantime, lets keep focused on the mission.

Something you should know about me: I like to talk about myself in third person sometimes.

It gives me a power boost.

Yay to Black Girl magic power !

✨

Speaking of power, I have decided that I have the power to live MY life the way I want to and be as successful as I want to be.

Drake is right people!! It is an amazing time to be, alive. Like living and breathing where you stand, alive. Consciously making choices I want to make, alive. Not living out some world I should be living because "so and so" is doing it or said I should be doing this, alive. As long as I'm not harming anyone else or inhibiting the life of others why cant I?

The questions isn't who's going to let me, the question is who's going to stop me?! I know it will

always work out if I stand in my truth. For the truth shall set you free. And the truth is, I know I can do "it."

"It" being what I see fit. My mask is off.

😈

Im free.

Who cares what "they" say!

Who cares if its different!!

or unorthodox !!

or rebellious !!!

or misunderstood !!

or gutsy!

It takes guts to love your life and be yourself in a world attempting to marginalize just to play pretend.

BE YOU TO THE FULLEST.

I'm the one who has to wake up and look in the mirror and face the reality of the cards I've been dealt. That is why I have to stay true to myself. It'd be a disservice to anyone else to try and be something or someone I am not.

PSA 🗣 : Doing you is a service to others.

TO LIVE THE LIFE OF YOUR DREAMS STARTS WHEN YOU WAKE UP FROM THAT DREAM AND RUN TOWARDS IT LIKE A BAT OUT OF HELL. PUT TOGETHER A FULL PROOF PLAN DESIGNED BY YOU, FOR YOU AND WAKE UP EVERYDAY EXECUTING. NOW THAT TAKES GUTS.

I am taking full responsibility of where I am, acknowledging where I want to be, deciding how I will and then execute to close that gap.

IM GOING TO LIVE LIKE I LIKE IT. I ONLY HAVE THIS ONE LIFE AND IM GONNA LIVE IT LIKE I SEE FIT. Period.

PSA 🗣 : Validation is no longer needed 🤷🏾‍♀️.

The woman I am is created from the wisdom I retain and capitalize on.

Speaking of which, I recently asked snapchat, if you could wake up tomorrow and live the life of your wildest dreams, what would that look like?

I read a few responses from friends and family, and was then presented with the same question...

What does your dream life look like Jess?

🌴🏃🏾‍♀️🛫👩🏽‍💻✨💼⚙️💰💎📸👀

So far,

I know that I do NOT want to wake up, got to work at someone else's business, to build their dream, to get off of work and come home to a house or apartment, to just wake up and do it all over again. Boringggg. 😴 💤Hey, some people enjoy working for others. Its apart of life. Everyone needs to play their role. It may be the case that is the best option for some at the time. Yet no matter the convenience or circumstance,

I constantly ponder,

"Why would I go work for someone else when I can work for myself?"

Me? I am built and quite frankly, see things differently. I have the capability to create businesses and the proper infrastructures; I was not built to act as a single worker within them. I have shown that through the curation of Countryside Photo Booth, LLC. Last month we were booked every single week for events and the momentum hasn't slowed yet. To date, we are on track to double our profit margin and we're not even a year old yet! 📈Business is a work in process, a lot like ourselves. If the people on shark tank can do it, I can too!

If I were to give any advice, it would be to

remain humble in the obsession of progression. As Co-Founder and Director of the awesomest photo 📸 booth 🎞 company in the south east region of the US, I have shown to be equipped with ability to develop organization structures that process information and transform relationships to the flexible times and demands of present conditions with efficiently and speed. A skill I believe I've adapted from the athlete in me. My mind is a magnitude for success

🙇🏾‍♀️🏆.

But what does your dream life look like Jess?? 👀

If I could wake up tomorrow morning and be living the life of my wildest dreams? It would look like this:

On this day..

Money would be ever-flowing because of the royalties I receive from the patent and licensing agreements I capitalized on. My family would have a remote location to travel to and from as they please. I would be in charge of my own schedule and wake up asking myself "Do I want to go to Africa or Asia today?" I would sit up on the bed, sip ginger and garlic tea while I just breathe in the breathtaking view. My partner would roll over and shower me with kisses until I giggled like a newborn. We would plan our day according to our current plans and disposition. On this day we would blast Caribbean music and sing out loud in the shower. I would run away from him as he tries to spank me with a towel then get dressed to workout. Tie my laces, plug in my headphone then go for a quick 23 minute run. Ill run a steady pace because the day before I had a mean workout. While running Ill see butterflies, large bodies of water and birds in love. At 22:58:44 minutes into the run, Ill unplug my headphone and stretch on the stairs that lead to my royal palace. Zeebo will be running around on the front acreage, sniffing and peeing on everything he considers his territory. Ill keep the front door open as I rinse mangos and kale in the sink, before throwing them into the blender. Ill make lunch for bae and as I do, hell come up behind me and whisper sweet everythings in my ear. I'll say a silent prayer of praise to the highest for blessing me. Then Id hop on my MacBook and create some dope content and book my flight for next weeks track meet that happens to be in the same city as board meeting. Thats what my dream life would look like.

UNTIL THEN ☝🏾!! I am working tirelessly on my mind, body and soul so that I may be present when that time comes.

At this present moment, ultimately, my goal is to work from home 👩🏽‍💻✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

so I can work on learning all I can about patents and licensing agreements and of course keeping up with my fitness🏋🏾‍♀️.

Specifically, my dream is to build⚙️ a billion dollar business from my home while training for the Olympics.

As a track and field athlete who missed the Olympics by .67th of a second, I cannot afford a day off.

I will have the luxury and freedom to explore and navigate the world on my time and money, using my skills and resources.

💁🏾 If theres a will theres a way!

If you have any suggestions or recommendations, feel free to comment or email me ! Thank you sweet pea 😘

My journey has not always been easy, but what has

always been so clear is my definition of success.

After realizing that college is not necessarily the only route I have available, I had the chance to pause in this world wind of life and decide who I am going to be, what I am going to do and how I am going to do it.

BASED UPON WHAT I BELIEVE MAY SERVE MY GREATEST GOOD.

I looked myself in the mirror and finally saw a beautiful, genuine, magical, genius being wrapped in glowing skin✨. I don't know if my skin has always been glowing, but I witnessed the illumination brighten right before my eyes.

I wasn't obsessed with what I saw in the mirror until I figured out that I am all of things the moment I believe I am those things. I fall in love with the person in the mirror a little more everyday. And maybe thats selfish to say, but I couldn't have it any other way.

The young women that has been yearning to be has always been right here within me. I am a creator by birth, love by breath, no longer attempting to fit in for the in crowd. My past present and future all right where I am. I am bigger than my name, age and location. I am the sum of my thoughts, wants, needs and desires; both subconsciously and consciously so.

I want to go all around the world just to meet myself where I arrive.

With that understanding I was able to stand firm in my beliefs, I know to be real. I have to be real for myself, my family, and most importantly my sanity. As long as I'm working on myself, I will be a better influence just by my presence alone.

So as long as I am doing right, right will follow.

Anyway, welcome to my blog!!!

Follow me so we can be friends like duhhh..lol

oh! also, remember to remain persistent in the pursuit of the mission at hand.

Everyday is a brick I lay and use to build and fulfill my goals. I am the biggest force that can stand in my way. I speak and then watch it come to land. I am blessed and spoiled with your love. The world is yours at demand.

So, for those of you who don't already know me,

👋🏾 Hi !

I'm Jessica Arlene Gelibert❤︎

I love running, all things positive and mangos.
