U - Unified Self

U – Unified Self

Wisdom
Any aim for your life requires full commitment from you.  Taking steps and evolving will also mean that you bring together what you need from the inside-out. Let’s look at the work unified – means to bring things together in a uniform manner.

Experience
I remember when I thought that a degree would change everything, but that’s not enough. Mental growth is only a part of the journey that we all must embark upon in our personal transformation.

Tools
To be your unified self you must:
Understand your personal gaps (in health, mentality, and emotional stability)
Challenge yourself to break barriers and typical norms
Care for yourself (mind, body, and spirit) every day, while remembering that it isn’t selfish to do so
Keep learning (and this doesn’t have to mean years and years in school)
Empower yourself and find the tools to do that effectively
Make time for evaluation of your growth, so that you can develop a plan to continue to evolve
Eat in a way that is conducive (in alignment) with the life that you want
Meditate, pray, and reflect (you’re not in this alone, I promise)
Control your inner and outer environment
Eliminate negativity
Let go of your past
AND WHATEVER ELSE IS NECESSARY TO BE WHOLE WITHIN YOURSELF

Reflect
We have all learned and grown from many facets of life, but that doesn’t mean that we have to let those things bind us. The unified self flourishes because it is when we care enough and are aware enough to figure out what may be holding us back in any way. Only when we can move into a place of inner curiosity can we create realities from possibilities with our unified selves.

A plan for greatness is just a plan until we can grant ourselves permission to become whole and able to conquer what life will bring forth.

Bible & Spiritual Connection
Galatians 5:22-23 &  Psalms 16:7
Bringing together your unified self will shine a lot on all that you are capable of doing.  The goodness and beauty of a mission that isn’t self-serving are powerful, wonderful, and blessed. You have warmth, love, and a consistent realm of consist that are always around and within you. When the little voice in your head suggests a shift or brings love to your heart pay attention to what that means and make the most of it through your unified self.

Be blessed and be at peace.

N - Now or Later

N – Now or Later

Posted on by KayLa's Positivity Corner by KayLa N. Allen, MPH

In the process of personal evolution there comes a time when we face the question of now or later.

When focusing on your goals, determining whether you should hit the gas or pump the brakes is up to you. What we must keep in mind when answering the question of now or later is what will happen when we choose the option of greatest desire.

You can miss out on something great in life if you choose not to take another step forward. While you pause you can be giving an opportunity to someone else to make a move that you once wanted.  In a pause and reflect moment doubt can also enter, so in your choices think clearly by assessing your situation before making an “ideal” move.  Write down your options plain and clear; be sure to include possible outcomes that may come along.

Although taking the next leap forward may seem promising, it could lead to negative outcomes or change your life for the better simply because you walked on faith. Don’t make the mistake of walking blindly, be smart in your execution of completing objectives whether now or later.

If something tells you to wait when you feel like you should resume with moving be sure that the voice is not one of ill-will, personal doubt, negativity, or anything connected to pain. You deserve better than that, so don’t let darkness take over your light.

The answer to now or later is up to you; the outcome could be negative or positive in either space, so depend on your rational thinking, vision for your life, and the reality that you face.

Bible & Spiritual Connection
2 Corinthians 2:11 & Proverbs 14:8
Evil will always have a “place” in the world, so be clear in knowing that not all things are for your good. Be honest, truthful, and wise in your choices, because in these things you can find blessed success. You are not alone in your journey as there are many parts in play. Seek God in all that you do and know that with persistence and in His time the greatest things that your heart desire will come to fruition.

Be blessed and be at peace.

M - Master Your Craft

M – Master Your Craft

Posted on by KayLa's Positivity Corner by KayLa N. Allen, MPH
©KayLaN.Allen

What makes you unique?
What “craft” do you do that is unique to you?
What things do you do to feed your soul and bless others?

Only You
There is something that you do naturally that sets you apart from others. For some, this may seem impossible given that there are billions of people in the world and so many people that may have similar educational or career experiences.  However, the truth that we can all see in many things, is that there are amazing things that people do that no one else could ever repeat.

The Journey Impacts Your Purpose
It took me a long time to realize the value of my uniqueness, experiences, life journey, education, and all that I have learned in my life. However, all of what makes me unique has shaped my brand and my writings. The same is true for you! Think about what you do for others because of what has been uniquely a part of your life (good and bad).

Continue Learning
Once you become aware of your uniqueness and you get moving with sharing your greatness with the world, you must continue to evolve to master your craft. There will also be a need to level-up once you reach your goals; this need is not to prove something, rather it is to best serve others and represent the vision and mission of your brand as best as possible at all times.

Master your craft and know that what you uniquely do is exactly what your audience needs.

Water your mental garden, master your craft and watch how things begin to blossom.

Bible & Spiritual Connection:
1 Timothy 4:14 & Romans 11:29
To not continue to evolve after you have reached new heights in using your craft would be quite a waste. You have been blessed, so why not continue to improve yourself and maximize the impact that only you can create? No matter how hard you may try to hide or pretend that your gifts do not exist or are not important, they will not go away. Open your eyes and know that you are special beyond words and you have great potential to be a blessing and gift to others in countless ways.

There is nothing and no one who can stop me from continuing to evolve.

L - Lifestyle Creation

L – Lifestyle Creation

Posted on by KayLa's Positivity Corner by KayLa N. Allen, MPH
©KayLaN.Allen

In all things that you do, you are leading a lifestyle. When you think about what you do on a regular basis, are you satisfied with the life that you are leading? Things such as a daily schedule, foods, prayer & meditation, exercise, and personal transformation choices affect all that you do. 

Daily Routine
Whether your daily process begins with prayer, a healthy meal, working out, or journaling, you have established a flow for your day. When we shape our days with intention, we can see positive outcomes. You have a decision to make each day and your outcomes from those decisions can shape your day. What do you do to pan through your days?

Healthy Diet
A lifestyle includes your food consumption just as well. The phrase “You are what you eat” is a harsh but true reality that each of us must face. If your diet is lacking colors, veggies, fruits or water, you cannot expect a healthy, holistically-sound life. Greasy, fattening, and sweet foods may be pleasing at one level, but the long-term effects will be quite the opposite.

Prayer & Meditation
What a gift we have in being able to pray and meditate at any time of day in any place.  When we can do this, we activate hope, faith, light, clarity, grace, mercy, joy, relief, and so much more. Sit and think for a moment when you felt that feeling (after prayer or a moment of true peace) that you were lighter.  Prayer and meditation must be a part of your lifestyle if you wish to remain in-tune with your creator and generate greater possibilities for our lives.


Exercise
Taking care of your physical body is something that is 100% necessary. Limited income, children, and other obligations will not stand as excuses for not taking care of your body at least 3 times a week. You do not have to go into a gym, pay for a trainer, or work out at a specific time of day; you just need to get it done. I am an introvert and I find ways at home to work out regularly; I use apps, YouTube videos, and DVD/TV programs to make my workouts impactful. You have a phone/device that you can access exercise methods on, so make it happen.

Personal Transformation
No matter what practices, faith, processes, habits, or choices you made in your past or you are currently making, you have the opportunity to evolve and find success at every level. Change starts with you and must continue throughout your life.  A stagnant life contains inconsistencies, unhealthy habits, negative talk, and poor judgment. Shifting a lifestyle requires a massive overall, but it can alter all that you do.


Develop and consistently lead a fruitful lifestyle by understanding what it takes to lead the life that you want to live.


Bible & Spiritual Connection
1 Timothy 4:8 & Psalm 128:2
We are given life and there is a multitude of ways in which we can live that life. Certainly, physical health is important, but a lifestyle that will withstand the test of time on Earth and beyond contains much more.


Be blessed and be at peace.

F - Failure Is Semi-Real

F – Failure Is Semi-Real

Posted on by KayLa's Positivity Corner by KayLa N. Allen, MPH
©KayLaN.Allen

The act of failing is something that I would like to call a pit stop. Although you may not have made it to the destination once hoped for, you now have a moment to reflect, make changes, and get back out on the road.

“Failure is a pit stop before reaching some of your goals; pause, reflect, make changes and get back on the road.”

Real “Failure”
Failure can only become real, debilitating, or discouraging when you allow it to be a valid strain in your life. I understand that there are situations where failure could come about such as in a grading system, but even then it is not the end of the world unless you keep doing the same things and are not willing to evolve.  People “fail” when they do not understand why/how something has happened and they get stuck in that moment of sorrow or regret.

Overcoming the Shadow of “Failure”
Of course, people do make mistakes, but the only way to challenge and
overcome those mistakes is to let go of what did not work and make room
for success. Looking for the quick and easy route to doing things will
not serve you well. We must all accept that many plans of ours will not
go in our favor.

You Will Survive & Thrive
I have had to overcome much to reach my goals, but even when my days grew dark I still found the courage to keep believing that better days were coming if only I would keep trying.

If you believe in yourself, no amount of perceived/semi-real failure can stop you from being successful. Your job when “failure” comes about is to turn it into a lesson and grow from it. When watered a mental lesson become a mental garden.

Remember, every outcome is not your final destination.

A Celebration of “Failure”:

Spiritual Check-In
Joshua 1:9 & James 2:24
Courage can be found and owned when you realize and keep in mind that you are not alone. God is always with you; even when you may think He has let you down. Do what you can for yourself and be prayerful knowing that faith and works go hand in hand. If you see yourself winning, failing, succeeding, or anything in between know that you have so much to be thankful for. Evil beings want and would thrive off of us living in “failure” or disappointment. Hold strong and know that through love, patience, hard work, and the willingness to become more like God and aim to serve others with what He has uniquely blessed you with will change your life at every level; in that you will undoubtedly know that failure cannot be allowed to be real.

Be blessed and be at peace.

E - Effective Leadership

E – Effective Leadership

Posted on by KayLa's Positivity Corner by KayLa N. Allen, MPH
©KayLaN.Allen

Leaders of the world unite! Maybe…?

Each person is different in every way, right? The same is true for leaders.

Let’s think about it.

For every business, there is a leader, but not every leader is the same. There are so many different leadership styles, character traits, and belief systems that encourage a leader to perform the way that they do. Effective leaders not only have an embedded understanding of who they are…they also work diligently to understand and positively impact their “subordinates”. On the other side of this, many of us have seen the opposite scenario just as well.

We (you and I) have the choice to change the way that we lead. When was the last time that you challenged your own performance or took inventory of the way that you tackle concerning situations? If you go through life believing that you are correct and have no need to change, then effective will not be the word that is in front of leadership when it comes to you.

Encourage yourself to be better, no matter difficult it may seem. Being effective as a leader is impactful not only for yourself but for everyone around you, business, and those you serve through your business’ efforts. Leadership is not just telling others what to do. Think about leadership like a trickling of water effect; when one key leader is at the head, guess what happens? Everyone else is flooded with whatever is included; on the positive side that could be empowerment, courage, happiness, critical thinking skills and so much more.

Even if you aren’t in a leadership position now, your time will soon come if that is your heart’s desire.

Know that: “The potential to be an amazing leader is living and breathing inside of you.”

Bible Check-In & Spiritual Connection:
Proverbs 29:2 & Jeremiah 33:3

God prepares those He sets forth to carry out a calling that he has on their lives. No one is perfect and sometimes you will not have all of the answers, but that is okay. You don’t have to evolve or walk into greatness alone. Be strong, look internally, and seek wise counsel from above and on Earth. None of us are alone. 
You know that feeling when things seem to fall into place or when everything starts to align in an order that makes complete sense? What if it is divine? What if things are happening as they should? Your soul, heart, and mind know what they deserve- when they are in alignment and you are focused on what is most desired, everything happens as it should (in a supernatural way).
Today can be the day that you choose to be an effective leader moving forward. Is today your day?
Be blessed and be at peace.

B - Being You

B – Being You

Posted on by KayLa's Positivity Corner by KayLa N. Allen, MPH
©KayLaN.Allen

As unhealthy and confusing as it can be for some people, at one point or another every one of us goes through a phase when we question and eventually set our identity. Life, education, culture, background, beliefs, and experiences help to shape who we are. In all things, even as you evolve you must continue to be who you are at your core.

Life is tough enough; external judgment could cause a negative shift inf you allow it to. You hold the key to your truth, so don’t alter things for someone else’s comfort. Remain the you that you are designed and purposed to be. Only if a change is warranted or needed to improve your life should it be done.

People will see you as how and who you are if they want to. In truth, the only opinion that matters is yours. The only emotional/character judge that matters is not found in enemies or naysayers. Being you will earn you a seat at the table of prosperity.

In deep clarity, you find yourself.

Be amazingly you…no one else can do it.

Bible Check-In (Read it alone and understand the meaning):
Ephesians 2:10

Spiritual Reflection: None of us are the same. Not one person on this Earth is perfect. Even with that knowledge, we can still hold true to the fact that each of us was created for a purpose and reason. Do the good that you can in the world by being yourself. Do not become something/someone different to please others. You were made in the image of your creator. I am made in His (God’s) image and I refuse to become someone else.

A – All Clear

This year, let’s focus on gaining clarity in our individual spaces of personal evolution. This evolution can come through education, work, life experiences and your willingness to “level-up”. You must choose to take the journey. Let’s get started and become all we are called to be.

As you begin this year of clarity (#2020clarityyear), keep in mind that how you find success, joy, and prosperity, is up to you. Clarity is more than a word of thought. Clarity has meaning, depth, truth, and wisdom in it for those who diligently seek it.

Take to pen and paper, and let’s think about at least one thing that we will achieve this year. Create a memory that you can hold onto this entire year. You can do this by feeling how you will when you achieve the goal that you are aiming for. Know that it is coming if you are going to work for it.

Be truthful and understand what could physically or mentally block you from “winning”. Put on your strength, because you will have much to overcome. Take courage and be ready to welcome growth and personal evolution. 

 Connect the dots to see things clearly.

All Clear? Ready to evolve? Good deal. 🙂

Fear and struggle reside in the past. Visions, prosperity, and clarity begin now.

Create Your Future

Create Your Future

Each day you are manifesting your future.

No matter what age you are, there will be days of uncertainty and spaces in which you can or need to grow.

W - Wonder

W – Wonder

Posted on by KayLa's Positivity Corner by KayLa N. Allen, MPH
©KayLaN.Allen
Wonder = Surprise + Admiration
Every day we experience this is so many ways. How can we hold onto those tiny moments and find new love in spaces in time?
When we can learn how to hold strong to wonder, we can find new joy and happiness in life.
Moments of wonder that we all experience:
Hearing a baby coo
Witnessing a rainbow
Learning something new
Observing a flower come into full bloom
Seeing a lightning strike in the darkest of nights
Hearing a song and it ignites a fire internally
There are so many moments of wonder that can happen at any moment, even when we’re feeling down or our hearts are breaking.
Just like we can take the time to complete an assignment at school or work, couldn’t we document moments of wonder?
Treat your wonder as an investment in your future. When we save money it is for something greater, so couldn’t life’s wonders be saved in the form of memories, gifts, or blessings for the greater good?
When was the last time that you look into the eyes of a child when they experienced wonder? How did it make you feel?
You can house joy and wonder in your soul and experience it time and time again if you tap into it.
I encourage you to seek wonder every day and enjoy the gift that it is for you.


Wonder is like you closing your eyes, imagining the most beautiful or amazing thing, then opening your eyes and seeing it right in front of you.

Psalms 103:11-12
“For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is His mercy toward them that fear Him. As the east is from the west, so far hath He removed our transgressions from.”  
Do you know how full of wonder God is? When was the last time you REALLY thought about Him? God is a God of wonder and miracles. Isn’t that something powerful enough to hold firm to every day? What if we set a reminder on our phones every day about that? (It’s not a bad idea, I am going to do this myself and you should too!)


Psalms 19:1
“The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.” 
There is a sense of wonder in the beauty of God’s creations…all of which constantly surround us. If you ever lose sight or cannot find the truth in His wonders, simply look to the sky. 


***Health Spotlight***

Whitmore’s Disease Melioidosis (CDC reference)


Symptoms: Depending on the exact infection symptoms can range from localized pain or swelling to abdominal discomfort and respiratory distress.

Source of infection: Contaminated soil and surface waters; primarily in Southern Asia and Northern Australia but there have been a few cases in the U.S. and a few other countries.
Prevalence: It is estimated that there are over 160,000 cases per year.
Treatment: Medication, Oral Therapy, and IV therapy
Prevention: If you have open wounds avoid soil and contaminated water contact, an agricultural worker should wear books, and health workers can use gloves, masks, and gowns to prevent infection.


Be blessed and be at peace.
