So much is being said about AI and its business applications. I got curious to know how many small businesses are using it. Are you? How are you using it? Is it a net benefit or a waste of time so far?

You said that this year was your year. But have you done anything about it yet? It’s not too late to get started but the longer you wait the easier it will be to “start tomorrow”. Then 2027 will be your new “this is my year!” How will you feel if you are exactly where you are now? What if… you started today and were just 10% better off by December 31st? 10% more money, 10% less time at a job you don’t like, 10% more time with family and friends? What would an extra $1000 per month do for your bills, vacations, kids, a night out with your love and not pinching Pennie’s (do they make those anymore?). Start the journey today and see what 2027 looks like when you start 10% better than 2026! https://shop.beacons.ai/ladysteph_creates/32ad246b-2c1f-4af9-85be-caa79424c302?affiliateKey=gAAAAABo7mcmjpe42jdBhvZJEQHwP6wNeGREkRb4uZ46tNc4GaTopguw3zlPOznwxrAwBawF1EoAknLCYvEecSU8a8tF_RR_Z-WSx6oeSmkYM-3Ab8XixEQslOdI_XkhlSsnZhMyoG95t-d2hMRHVdl4qD34qW7Osdxbi6AmPuT-63jdzFE7RcLmp_kBKYUXjVXNctmMAbKA7H5gSwFS7-ipk_femfOcRg%3D%3D&pageViewSource=lib_view&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fbeacons.ai%2Fjimshields&show_back_button=true

Movement Makers… This is where transformation starts — not with goals, not with hustle — but with radical honesty. We all have two versions of ourselves: 📱 The one the world sees. 🙏 And the one only you and God know. The problem? Most people live their whole lives as the first one. 💀 THE HARD TRUTH You can’t heal a fake version of yourself. You can’t build legacy on lies. And you can’t lead others until you’ve faced your own truth. If we’re serious about changing the world, we have to start by changing ourselves — the real selves. ⚓ WHY THIS MATTERS We numb out. We scroll. We distract ourselves with noise — but deep down, we know something’s off. A ship that doesn’t know where it’s starting from can’t plot a course to anywhere meaningful. Neither can we. 💡 THE “CLOSET WITH GOD” EXERCISE Find silence. No phone. No music. No performance. Just you — and Truth. Ask yourself: 1. Who am I really when no one’s watching? 2. What do I say I value… but don’t actually live? 3. What am I chasing that doesn’t serve me — or my mission — anymore? Write it. Sit with it. Feel it. That’s where the transformation begins. ⚔️ OUR CHALLENGE THIS WEEK 1. Be brutally honest — no more fake narratives. 2. Write down your truth. The beautiful and the broken. 3. Let go of what isn’t aligned with your purpose. 4. Share one realization in the comments to lead from the front. 🔥 REMEMBER When we live for others’ expectations, they control us. But when we live from truth, we lead movements. This is what Movement Makers do — We face the fire. We grow from truth. We make change happen. 👇 Community Challenge: What’s one truth you’re finally ready to face this week? Drop it below — or just comment 🔥 to say, “I’m ready to face the real me.” #MovementMakers #ChangeIsComing #MakeItHappen

Change is always happening. We make changes only when the pain of remaining is greater than staying put. Watch the video then ask yourself “What area of my life needs to change? Where am I suffering the most and what am I going to do about it?” “Nothing” is an answer. Is it the answer you will be ok with 5 years from now?

Keeping YOUR dreams alive is up to you and no one else. Take a 2 minutes to watch this video and the perspective shift could change your life forever.
