Photo by anonymous   Imagine yourself attending high school surrounded by schoolmates who constantly tease you about things beyond your control. That is not a favorable experience for anyone, especially during the teenage years. This was what young Melissa had to endure in order to be a success story today.  Born Mellissa Mae Tennant Now, Dr. Mellissa Mae Tennant-James is a determined woman who is the third child for her mother and possibly the first for her father. She describes herself as organized, hardworking, disciplined, career-driven, and considerate.  On the journey to her success Melissa attended Bishop Gibson High School for Girls, where she recalls being bullied for her uniform.

It's Not Easy

Image
 By Jason Grant   If you want something you have to give something.  Welcome back to Grantinspo Blog post, last post we  were talking about pulling ourselves through now we are  admitting that it's not easy and that we have to give  something in order to have something.  Let's be real about this topic because it is something that  I have long over looked and did not analyze until I got to  this age and came to the realization that it is factual. If  you have never noticed it let me point it out for you.  think about your education, doesn't it require you to be  present at school on most day to get the best grades?  what do you get in return for studying? you get an  education that will help you to get a job in the future.  If you should look at whole process of life you will  see what I'm getting at. You always have to give something in order to receive something whether it be  your time, your attention, your money, etc. it counts as giving something.  Nothing in this w

Pull Yourself Through

Image
  In support of Mental Health Awareness Week An evening at the beach in NC. Photo by Ashley Crawford "No one's coming to push you. No one's coming to tell you turn the Tv off. No one's  coming to tell you to get out door and exercise. Nobody  is coming to tell you to apply for   that job that you always dreamt about. No one's coming to write the business plan for  you. You got to parent yourself. You got to push yourself." - Mel Robins As I reflect on these words above from Mel Robins, I look back on my life and remember when I was  about to take my CSEC exams and I felt like giving up on the SBAs. I remember watching motivational  videos every night before I started working on them because it was the hardest time for me to focus, at  these crucial points in our lives things almost always get super difficult to keep under control nevertheless,  I pulled myself through despite I the personal challenges that I was facing I managed to overcome this  season by mot

Understanding Who You Are

Image
by Jason Grant                                                                        A photo of me jumping with excitement. Photo by: Latty  Do you know who you are ?  Do you know what you're about?           Once upon a time I would take what others told me about myself as my reality, not fully  understanding myself for who I am. My likes, my interest, and my desires were all based on what others  told me about myself or what they would consider to be within the normative pattern of society for me to do.   It wasn't until much further on in my years of development (teenage years) exiting primary school to High  school is where it all began for me. I hope that you're not misinterpreting my story but that you are on par  with it. When I say it is "where it all began for me", I mean that I am now amongst peers from different  backgrounds and who have different experiences. Now being in a new school environment with a little  more freedom than primary days might hav
