TALENTED MISFITS

I am writing for the talented misfits.

Who don't mind being in trouble.

*trouble is relative

Who can see through it all, who will never sell their soul, who will pay the price of not biting their tongue.

Who take no one's word for it.

You are the rarest breed.

I am writing in hopes that you find this.

Not all of us care about burning bridges, or our reputations with those who just can't hang.

Some of us channel our greatness into risk.

I told the HR lady in my exit interview at my first church that I wouldn’t recommend working there to a friend because it was boring and spiritually manipulative.

She asked, so I told her.

I applied for this one job and they took forever, so I withdrew my application to speed up the process. They wouldn't reply to my email, but that got them to call me.

I knew I was the most qualified.

I got the job, and got promoted the next year.

My old boss has had me blocked on IG for 8 years lol. 

I have people blocked too.

All good.

It comes with the territory of a sovereign individual coming to the surface.

Let it be messy, it's your mess, own it, embrace it. Your propensity for risk is not a problem to be solved, but a personality trait of greatness.

It only looks messy for people watching the man in the arena.
