The Importance of Raising Your Anchors

Good Morning People!!!


It had been over ten years since Ashlee had taken a vacation somewhere nice and far away. In the past, she’d come up with many excuses for why this was impossible. Her most recent excuse had been her part-time volunteer job as the babysitter for her 9-year-old niece. She had been responsible for picking her up from school and daycare for the past four years, and the role had a tight grip on her yearly travel plans. The coming year would be different. Ashlee decided to relinquish her position by giving her niece’s parents 90 days to replace her. Three months later, Ashlee set sail for St. Pete’s Beach, Florida. She had finally been able to remove the weight that had held her in place and the future in front of her looked welcoming.


Happy Throwback Thursday, my Weekday Warriors! It feels like just yesterday I was throwing you back, and now here it is Thursday all over again. Your KC metro area weather starts out in the upper 50s and hits the low 90s by noon. Your throwback topic for today is ‘The Importance of Raising Your Anchors’.


‘Anchors aweigh’, a nautical call to action that embodies more than just sailing off. It symbolizes embracing the unknown and venturing beyond comfort zones. Life’s journey, much like a ship's course, demands that we release the anchors holding us back. Fear, doubt, and complacency weigh us down, hindering progress. So listen up, people: to grow and evolve, we must hoist those anchors and set sail into the sea of possibilities. It's vital for personal growth, professional success, and the pursuit of dreams. Embrace change, take risks, and dare greatly. So the next time you feel the weight of stagnation, remember: Anchors aweigh, for it's in the voyage that we discover our true potential.


It’s ya boy, Coffee Cup Chuck! Thank you for joining me for another powerful message. I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day, and as always, stay positive, people! ☕️😎👍🏾
