Stay Ready

A true certified Diva stays ready!! She carries herself in such a way that she can leave the office and head straight to happy hour and get her sexy twirl on without being worried about her look. She can leave class and head straight to a party and still be the head turner in the room!! I can not express how important it is for Divas to Stay Ready. You never know when you will be requested to attend or accompany someone to a function spur of the moment and if you aren't ready then you could be missing out on a wonderful opportunity to share your Diva-osity with the world!!! If you don't keep your daily maintenance in order then you aren't staying ready. The little things mean so much when you are a diva!! Hair, nails, feet, eyebrows, clothing, and SHOES...these are all things that divas should keep in check without giving it much thought. It should be such a part of your being that if these things aren't in order that you feel out of place.

Example...my Florida bestie Candice (yes my bestie's name is Candice as well) keeps a pair of heels and a belt in her car just in case of emergencies. We were meeting some friends for karaoke and she had an incredibly long day at work and didn't go home afterwards, but when she stepped in the building no one knew that. She had taken her daytime look changed into a pair of peep toes and threw on a belt and owned the room when she walked in.

I make it my business to Stay Ready!! If I Stay Ready then I don't have to Get Ready!!!

Life: I was loafing around on facebook (as usual) and I came across a status that really caught my attention. The status read "If you stay ready you don't have to get ready...Suga Free". I thought to myself how awesome is that...life hits us with blows of all sizes and impacts. If we stay ready to take on the isms and schisms of life then we are much more likely to not be taken out by the blows. For we believers this translates to stay in prayer. With the power of prayer we are prepared to take on any blow that will come our way. Stay Ready Divas!!!!!

Remember being a diva is more than just a title, it's a way of life!!
