TYRENE

My name is Tyrene! I am a warm, loving, and energetic City girl. I am a Latina who loves a challenge and an extremely hard worker who knows that failure is never an option. I write, rant, and shout about things I love, miss, eat, the tangible and intangible, simply anything and everything. My goal is not to impress anyone or to attract a million followers but instead to share, explore, and learn about the things I love. This blog focuses on my likes and dislikes (which hopefully aren't many). I will write a post with substance and meaningful reflection. My philosophy is to love, love, and love.
i adore this little dress…not that it would ever fit me (at least not like a dress but a shirt instead)

Influence is often equated with size, but size isn’t everything. What matters is the size of the idea. Acting bigger than you are requires confidence, but it is a path to impact — and one step closer to growing into larger shoes and casting a longer shadow.

Give before you get.

Entrepreneurs who emerge as leaders on a bigger stage often spend more time offering favors than seeking them. They contribute ahead of being recognized for it. This builds credibility as well as goodwill. A medium-sized Brazilian marketing firm couldn’t entice the former President of the United States to visit if it hadn’t already done impressive work to reduce teen pregnancy.

Lending a helping hand.

Today I am feeling super grateful. As I shared before I have moved into a new apartment and I have been fortunate enough to have those I love give me/sell me some awesome furniture pieces. In the process of decorating and organizing everything…excited to make this my new home.
