As I continue to move forward in making the Brown Brother (the brand, but most importantly the definition of) bigger and better than ever; I have came across two old-but still active adversaries: Doubt And Fear. Also, if you have every dealt with the terrible twosome than you also know that they bring their friends: Anxiety, questioning oneself, and the occasional sleepless night. However, I have came to the conclusion that these feeling, emotions, or as I call them obstacles have no power over me. I don't know who, but a very smart person once said that "Tough times don't last forever, only tough people do." Therefore, I have learned that as I go about being the best person I can be and the best helper of others that I can be. I have learned to not listen to the doubts, but take courage in knowing that by being a leader and not a fellow I  would not be in the position I am in today. The Great Malcolm X said "If you have no critics, you'll likely have no success." Therefore, as I go about making this "thing" work I will take proud in knowing that with every move I make; I can be free and calm. Because the usual suspects of negativity have no control.


Before you judge me, let me help make this posting apply to you. Have you ever had the feeling of anxiety before a test or you just feel unprepared even when you know you practiced. Have you ever let one thing discourage you. While this my friend is doubt. As graduation or even your new summer job is around the corner; just remember that fear and anxiety have nothing on you. Be a man of courage and fear nothing. Know that you are well prepared, well versed, and well able to accomplish all your goals in life. Last, Never-Ever Let Anyone Say You Can't.


In closing,being a Brown Brother means being confident and head-strong. Remember this.

FASFA

I try to explore different topics and ideas to discuss/share on the blog. While going through some papers and looking through some stuff, I remember that I forget to write about this topic. Therefore, today we are going to talk about FASFA. First, you may ask, "What is FASFA." FASFA is federal aid or money for going to college. Although they said "federal aid", it is basically tax that is set aside for students who want to go to college, but need money to help pay for college. FASFA is available to students who have need and are looking to attend college (certificate program, associate degree, or 4 year degree). You need to fill out FASFA every year. FASFA should be filled out by any and every student. It is something that will without a doubt helpful in paying for school. A simple summary is basically this: (1) Wait until you or parents file Income Tax (2) Go to this website- https://fafsa.ed.gov/ (3) Create a account (4) Fill out all of the informat...

Hi, my Brothers; I have not posted anything in a couple of days. I was going to write about something different today. However, I saw this video and I had to share it. The anger and outrage I have can not be calculated because this video is too outrageous to believe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJhIN0gUN30 The video link above will direct you to Youtube. Where it shows a video of four Young Brothers being harassed and thrown out of Walmart. It further shows one of the Young Brothers being arrested. They were not harassed and then arrested for Robbery or Theft; but for "JUST HANGING OUT AND SHOPPING TOO SLOW." Yes you heard me, for going to slow in the store. Now this I can't believe. Maybe something else will come out and show otherwise. However, if this was the Young Brothers only "behavior"; then this arrest and event is truly hard to believe. For anyone who has ever grown up in any city in the world, you know summer are boring. Now, ...
