Tonight, leaving church after watching Heaven’s Gates, Hell’s Flames , I had one of those moments that many of us from Barbados would describe in a very familiar way. You know the phrase. “Sumting tell me…” or “My mind tell me…” If you’re Bajan, you’ve heard it a thousand times. But let me tell you what happened tonight. As I was driving home, I felt a very clear instruction: Do not pass the vehicle in front of you. Stay behind it all the way home. Now, if you know me, you know I’m not exactly the slow-driver type mind you I wont speed either but some drivers do test your patience and the best way to avoid an accident is to be a distance in front of them or a distance back and definitely NOT Next to them. If the road opens up, I’m usually gone so they don't block me if they crash. But tonight, the instruction was so clear that I simply obeyed. So I stayed behind the vehicle. The entire way home.

An apology doesn’t take long. And it doesn’t cost you anything! Not five minutes. Not even thirty seconds sometimes. Just a few simple words: “I’m sorry.” Yet somehow those two words are some of the hardest words for people to say. Why? Because apologizing requires something many people struggle with — humility. The Truth About Apologies People often get caught up in how long it took for someone to apologize. “He should have said sorry sooner.” “She took too long to admit she was wrong.” “They only apologized after the damage was done.” But here’s the reality: The fact that someone apologized at all matters more than the timeline.

Sometimes people are dealing with battles you know nothing about. And sometimes… people simply need a moment to reflect before they can say those words sincerely. An apology given after ...

Blaming others is easy. It’s the most comfortable habit in the world. When things go wrong, we instinctively look outward. The boss didn’t support us. The team didn’t perform. The economy is bad. The government failed. The opportunity wasn’t fair. And just like that—responsibility quietly slips out the back door. But here’s the uncomfortable truth most people don’t want to hear: Blame is the enemy of growth. As long as you’re pointing fingers at everyone else, you’re giving away the one thing that actually gives you power—ownership. The Blame Game Keeps You Stuck The moment you decide that someone else is the reason your life, career, or business isn’t where it should be, you’ve just handed them control over your future. Think about it. If the problem is always someone else, then the solution is also someone else. And that means you’re stuck waiting. Waiting for someone to change. Waiting for someone to fix things. Waiting for someone to do what you could have do...
