Be Unapologetically You

Chazz Woodson - Words of Wisdom

I watched Kevin Durant’s MVP acceptance speech this morning. The thing that was most evident to me – and I’m sure anyone else that watched it – was the free flowing and genuine emotion, and love that he had for each and every person about whom he spoke.

Life Happens

Life happens. Sometimes you have to breathe your way through it. Sometimes you have to smile and nod your way through it.

Speak For Yourself

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen! I’m for truth, no matter who tells it. I’m for justice, no matter who it’s for or against. – Malcolm X One thing that I’ve observed when it comes to athletes and other celebrities regarding taking stances or making public statements regarding social (in)justice and equality is that we – […]

Someone Else’s Shoes

Chazz Woodson - Words of Wisdom

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen! Guard your heart from things and people that will try to convince you that your life…is not good enough. There will always be bigger, faster, stronger, or shinier – but you’ll never be satisfied with more until you’re fulfilled with what you have now. – Karen I don’t know Karen’s […]

Going Stress Free

Chazz Woodson - Words of Wisdom

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Happy Monday! Stress is a choice. We get stressed out when we choose to focus on our own limited resources instead of focusing on the unlimited resources available through our heavenly Father. You’ll never get healthy by trying to overcome obstacles through your own willpower; it simply isn’t strong enough. Focus […]

Let Your Heart Drive You

Chazz Woodson - Words of Wisdom

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen! One thing I’ve learned in life is that life isn’t long enough to allow ourselves to live in limbo, afraid to make decisions based on hypothetical results. It’s tough enough to make decisions without fully knowing what is going to come of it. Not making decisions because of “what if”s is just crazy. Every now and […]

Take The Extra Step

Time of Renewal

Chazz Woodson - Words of Wisdom

Great morning, ladies and gentlemen! Happy Good Friday! If your mind was a physical place into which people could walk, would you want them there? Would they want to be there?

Case Of The Buts

Chazz Woodson - Words of Wisdom

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen! Happy Friday! The word “but.” A tricky little word, It was in my persuasive communications course in college that I learned how damaging a word it can be. Simply put, the word but negates everything that came before it. When you use the word in discussion, people tend to remember […]

Writing A Legacy

Chazz Woodson - Words of Wisdom

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen! One of the most profound statements I’ve heard in 2014 (and probably in my adult life), was from Eric Thomas. He said, “When you become successful, you don’t ask what is wrong with something. You ask what’s right with it.” That is something that swirls through my head on a […]

Spring Has Sprung

Chazz Woodson - Words of Wisdom

GREAT Monday morning, ladies and gentlemen! The past has passed. And unless it’s name is, Michael Jordan or Brett Favre, it’s not coming back. ** Yes. Just like retro Nikes, the flatop and box fade, tight clothes, and Marvel comics, both Jordan and Favre will come back… again…. again, a[nother]gain(?)** After a meeting of the minds, Jordan contemplates […]
