The Power Of Gratitude

The most important part of your journey is the process. It's now what you are willing to do to achieve your goals but what you are actually willing to give up.

In life we go through challenges and face road blocks which teaches us to be more humble, patience and to persistent.

After each rock bottom there's some that help us lean closer to faith because we know sometimes our darkest moments turn out to be our strongest with gratitude and love.

You are human and life happens. It never to you but for you. I have learned to be more grateful, to move as positive force and appreciate life and the good people and want to help you do the same.

You will fall sometimes you may have a few scars and couple bruises but you will heal through the process and never stop fighting and stepping into true faith.

Never stop going for what matters most to you, you are not alone on this journey and to know all need someone to learn from, listen and to teach. To appreciate the opportunity.

  • Hey there my man! I came in a little late to your presentation. When I started listening I could literally see your energy and was extremely amazed by it! The way you talked about manifesting your own destiny is what I loved mostly. It’s the truth and I practice it everyday! Literally as long as you are putting your whole heart and soul into something you believe in, something will come of it! I deeply believe in that! I also agreed with you when you spoke about persistency and how that is the key! There were lots of things that I loved that you from your presentation, we here at City Year & AmeriCorps thank you for your leadership. I’m HUGE about energy. I believe that we all have a gift and if people can tap into that we can change the world!!!

  • Rell really helped me not only transform my career as an athlete but also helped me grow into the person I truly want to be. Going into my senior season he helped me go from 2nd team all conference to 1st team all-east region and nominated for all-American honors. He helped not only grow on a practical level by implementing better habits but also on a spiritual level with my relationship with God. I’m forever grateful for the impact Rell has had on my life!

  • Terrell did a great job in his keynote to our Teen Challenge Camp, speaking on topics such as resiliency, leadership, and motivation. He was very easy to work with and catered his talk to cover issues we felt would be pertinent to the lives of the teenagers attending our event. We will definitely keep Terrell in mind when booking speakers at future events.

  • Terrell captivates his audience with a remarkable story with what I would call his signature phrase “rejection is just redirection.” Terrell has the ability to create leaders and inspire those that are most quiet. Terrell really dives deep with his Q&A session, I’ve never seen someone connect with youth in a Q&A session like Terrell.

  • We recently had Terrell present to the youth council (ages 12-17years old) on resilience and goal setting and it was a great experience. The kiddos loved how he used poetry and rhyming (not quite rapping) to make his points, although the overall theme was a little lost at times. By directly asking individuals questions about their own goals, the presentation was interactive. Using "repeat after me" techniques, Terrell did a positive job keeping the teens engaged, but we would recommend shorter phrases - more like his rhymes, instead of long sentences. At times it was not clear if he was done. Overall, the teens had some good takeaways from hearing Terrell speak, and we would recommend him. Thank you!

  • Thanks Terell for being a guest speaker during our local chapter Project Management Institute meeting! I enjoyed learning about your background. I'm grateful that you took the time to share your story. It inspired me to keep reaching for my goals. I'm impressed that you consistently utilize your platform to help and encourage others. The tips and wisdom nuggets that you shared during your speech on "How to Thrive in Times of Uncertainty" was timely and the content was priceless. Then, you went above and beyond by being a guest speaker on our podcast, so we can continue to share your knowledge with our peers, family and friends.
