Life Lesson # 4 from MY Wisdom Vault: "TAKE A STAND FOR GREATNESS AND SQUASH MEDIOCRITY IN YOUR LIFE!"~ FUMI HANCOCK

Life Lesson # 4 from MY Wisdom Vault: 



"TAKE A STAND FOR GREATNESS AND SQUASH MEDIOCRITY IN YOUR LIFE!"~ By Author of Bestselling Book, Filmmaker (Of Sentimental Value, 2014, Philanthropist (adassa adumori foundation) & President of Let's Go Innovate~ Princess Fumi Hancock, Ph.D.

Today, I began to ponder on that phrase, "Take A Stand For Greatness!" How can we accomplish this as we move into 2014? How can we move beyond our own complacency? How can we move beyond lack of focus and begin to push to birth our destinies and vision?

Here a quick tips I find to be interesting for those who dare to deliver/birth their purpose, regardless of what career path or field you are in:
(1) When confused, go back to the drawing board and stick to the original plan;
(2) Regardless of how impossible the situation may seem, don't you ever give up;
(3) Always attach your dream to a great cause; that way, when things get tough, you are able to remind yourself of what is at stake;
(4) Above all else, LISTEN TO YOUR HEART!

I leave you with these two thoughts from two great men:
In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure- Bill Cosby

Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts - Winston Churchill. (Courtesy of Brainyquote)

Life Lesson # 3 from MY Wisdom Vault from Bestselling Author & Filmmaker~FUMI HANCOCK

Life Lesson # 3 from MY Wisdom Vault:

PLEASE READ, IT MAY VERY WELL SAVE A LIFE YOU KNOW. Thank you.
Beware of "Vision Pirates" by Princess Fumi Hancock, Ph.D.: The Toughest Blog I have ever had to write… I pray it blesses someone today. First, I want to thank all who have sent my new book promo across globe. The numbers show, I am humbled and indeed grateful. Please keep the love coming. It is my prayer that this book will truly be a blessing to you as the tools therein has really blessed me too. It is a labor of love I sincerely share with you all.

So, on to Life Lesson # 3. I woke up yesterday with a phrase on my mind, "Beware of Vision Pirates!"~ they are gifts that keep on giving if given the chance.  While I have heard of the word "Vision" and "Pirates"; I have never heard both used in the same phrase. My spirit was disturbed and I spent this morning trying to figure out what it all means.  Webster defines a pirate as a person " who attacks and robs ships at sea". Wow! Another meaning, is a "person who uses or reproduces another's work for profit without permission." "Vision" is therefore defined as the "faculty or state of being able to see". A vision is essentially "your sight" states webster dictionary. Who then is a Vision Pirate? One who sits on the sideline, waits for the best opportunity to steal an idea, a concept, a person's life work… a dream killer as such, a dream rogue! These callous people do so at the expense of others because their eyes are solely on satisfying their own immediate needs. They prey on anyone, including those who choose to open their lives to them!

These past months, I have learnt a lot about the capacity of human beings…. as smart as we are… as dedicated as we may seem… as committed as we may be perceived, there is something often innate in some… their ability to tear down what they may have been a part of creating. 

In the advent of several occurrences in my life, from the shooting of my first feature film, Of Sentimental Value (Release: 2014-www.facebook.com/ofsentimentalvalue), the launch of a coaching company (Let's Go Innovate: www.letsgoinnovate.com); the launching of my inspirational book, Your Vision Torch: An Innovator's Prescription for Igniting Your Dreams & Harnessing Your Vision: http://www.amazon.com/Fumi-Hancock/e/B009BHBI6S/
); to the preparation of my second season with The Princess in Subsurbia TV Show: http://www.youtube.com/user/princessinsuburbia) ; sadly I have
come to understand that there are many Vision Pirates around, if we look closely.  As good stewards of the vision God has given us, we must be diligent to ensure that our circle of influence is not infested by those who look right, sound right, say the right words, pretend to be one thing while they are really another…all for the sole purpose of benefiting themselves, at your expense!

My hard questions to you today: (1) Are you a Vision Pirate lurking in the dark for your next prey? (2) or are you a Vision Pirate helper?-- One who simply looks at other peoples' ideas and pawn them off to someone else? (3) Or are you a victim of a Vision Pirate or his/her helper? "The jealous are troublesome to others, but a torment to themselves" - William Penn.

This is a tough discourse; one I pray that as we venture into next year, we truly access our life luggage and take a stand for who we will choose to be next year. .. a selfish soul, a callous one, or one who is brave enough to stand for all that is truth and pure! If you are in any of the above categories, hope is not lost. The key is truly realizing the errors of our ways and turning for the better. Acknowledging our wrong is the first step to realizing our Vision. And truth is the torch towards your vision. While I can't call myself a victim, this much I know that moving into 2014, I have to do things better… When my gut speaks, I MUST OBEY! I know I have to clean my circle of influence (thankfully, some are already falling out by their own choice) and take steps in bringing more purity into my core, as painful as it may be.

WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO DO MOVING INTO 2014? WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO TRULY ASSESS WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU HOPE TO ACCOMPLISH in 2014? It all begins with the truth! It begins with taking off the blinders and first seeing your role in all that surrounds you; then moving into the arena of truth with those you have aligned with…. I wish you all the best as you stand for truth and as you use it as a torch for 2014 Vision for your life.

Princess in Suburbia & Amazon Bestselling YA Fantasy Author renews her vow with Dr David Hancock

Hello Everyone, 







I want to take this time to thank everyone who attended our wedding renewal in August 10, 2013. Words are not enough to thank you all for showing your love. YOUR PRESENCE at the wedding meant the world to us. YOUR ACT OF LOVE SHOWS YOU CARE and that YOU WOULD GO THE EXTRA MILE TO GRACE OUR LIVES WITH YOUR LOVE AND CARE.... Thank you. To all of my divas, Carnethia Wright, Ericka M. Osler, Lydia Taylor, Yolanda Conley Shields; our daughters, Holly & Marlee, our sons, Mola Thompson & Bola Thompson who worked hard in ensuring a successful day for us... Esé Morrison, ofcourse, our Event Planner Extraordinary, Patience Adegoke...highly recommended by us. and we certainly do not want to leave out our Officiating Minister, Olivia Precious Cooper (Many are called, sadly very few truly walk their talk). We obeyed the voice of God and chose one who was divinely ordained for the day and God showed up.... my sister indeed Princess Tope Akinkuotu, King Emmanuel Adebayo who showed his presence by way of his message all the way from Nigeria.... and lots ...lots more... Get ready for more pictures on the way. To those who were at the ceremony, please expect a private email from us shortly. We love you and are indeed overwhelmed by all who showed up at the event. Life is not about how much one spends on friendship but how we choose to reflect the friendship in ACT and DEEDS... True friendship starts with compassion and mutual respect for all which concerns the other.... and caring enough to take the extra mile. YOU ALL DID and for this we are grateful. 

 THANK YOU and LOVE YOU.

From Amazon Bestselling Author~ Fumi Hancock~Lesson learned today: It is not your speech but your actions that will change your environment....

Lesson learned today: It is not your speech but your actions that will change your environment. A simple act of acknowledgement will go a long way.... lesson learned from a precious soul today"-- Dr. FUMI HANCOCK



This morning, I woke up to a wonderful note from a precious soul Bola Adu, a young man I had never met yet thought it fit to share with me how a simple act of kindness, acknowledgement and generosity have changed his life. It is my prayer that as I share this with you, regardless of who you are... the world's best teacher, peoples' greatest preacher or a prolific writer, or even a well noted politician, these words will cause you to move as this simple act have dramatically changed Bola's life, business wise and personal wise.

Our actions or in-actions can cause people to stumble or cause them to rise and be who God has called them to be.... While we don't necessarily owe everyone our indebted gratitude (in particular those we have concluded are mere litchis who just know how to take and don't know how to give anything in return); we must know how to treat others with dignity and respect.

Remember, people are watching your ACTIONS AND NOT YOUR SPEECH! "Don't tell me how much you care, show me by simple acknowledgement. Perhaps if you acknowledged me, what you have been looking for, you never know.. i may be the answer"-- Thought to think about today.

Thank you Bola Adu, I am touched by your letter this morning. Equally glad that I was able to effect a change in your environment by simply responding to your message. A great lesson learned from you today. You have inspired me to even do better in this area. Ok, two days in a roll of people asking me about Nigerian politics.... ummmmm. -- Let's Go Innovate President, Amazon Bestselling Author- The Adventures of Jewel Cardwell (Check it out on Amazon) Princess Fumi Hancock.

Enjoy the note from Bola Adu
"Well done ma,the lord is ur strength,hmm since the day I had an encounter with u on facebook I was challenged with the quick response from u irrespective of the zero level of relationship,u reply my mail like that of Nigerian politician will do while campaigning for an election, like someone indebted to despite ur busy schedule u took ur time to compose that long txt.ha! Even me nobody,I used to have several tens of messages unattended to,but no more after that day, I started treating those reasonable messages and issues and its really helping my business.this is a multidimensional testimony and I'm seeing the multiplier effects in my entire life. I Pray u will not die unfulfilled in Jesus name".
