Cool Weather On May 23rd

  • by pharaoh

Today brings us cool weather on May 23rd. It is another day in the chilly gray fog of Chicago. Hopefully the mist will soon subside and we’ll get some much more attractive summer weather. – Pharaoh

Waiting For Summer

The month of May is almost finished and the weather is still chilly. What a disappointment. Global warming must really be affecting our climate for cool weather to last so late into the year.

This is kind of spooky and hard not to notice. There was a time when everyone could wear all short sleeves before Cinco De Mayo.

Give Up On Yourself Latest News

Give Up On Yourself

  • by pharaoh

One thing that I’ve learned to count on is the likelihood that you are going to give up on yourself. It doesn’t matter what the goal is, how achievable or unrealistic. My baseline belief in all of the human beings around me is that they will give up. That’s the most sensible thing for them to do. You could suffer immensely just for this thing that you want or you could bring all of the suffrage to an end by quitting. No more of that “believing in people” mentality will continue, especially when people don’t believe in themselves. So, go right ahead, quit. – The GodKing Pharaoh

Can’t Give Up On Myself

I have more confidence in me than I have in anyone. Quitting is never an option. Never quit, never give up. I’ve yet to meet someone with my endurance and unwavering determination. They all quit trying sooner or later. Usually, the first time an obstacle arises, they’ll throw in the towel.

Of Course It’s Cold Again

  • by pharaoh

Of course it’s cold again. The weather has been back and forward this year.

We are in the middle of May and I have to turn my heat on again. The weather has certainly been inconsistent. It’s not a terrible thing but some warm weather through the summer months would be nice.

Chicago Weather

Can’t Wait For Warmth

As soon as the sun comes out, we are outside. This dreary, gray weather is so lame. It just drains our energy.

History Of Bad Winters

Chicago has had some really foul winters over the past ten to fifteen years. We got lucky this past year. There was minimal snow to deal with. We barely had to use our salt in the sidewalks.

We had a short period of warm weather and it was great. After only a few days of sunny weather it’s cold again. This isn’t fair.

  • by pharaoh

With much preparation, practice and study, Pharaoh is working to land the axel jump. Axels are notoriously difficult to do but they are some of the best techniques to see. No athletic skill is more important for a JBGOD to accomplish than speed and jumps. Will Pharaoh be the next JBSKATER to land an axel?? Stay in touch to find out. If you don’t know it by now, one of the hallmarks of being a JBGOD is to skate fast, do jumps and attempt some new stunts.

Yehoshua Faced KenDraco In Yesterday’s Battle

  • by pharaoh

Some windy weather followed by a slight tornado warning swept through Chicago and the surrounding areas yesterday. However, the outdoor battles still ensued. JBGODS team skater Yehoshua battled against KenDraco yesterday and took his first competition loss. Yehoshua now has a pro skate record of 0 wins and 1 loss.

Yehoshua did take a loss, and that is ok. His presence alone in the competition only reinforces his nomination for Best New Skater. He’s got about three years of experience as a skater and he is doing quite well. As a JBGOD, the demand is always high for more jumps, more speed and more stunts.

It’s Time For A New Pair Of Dress Shoes Swag

It’s Time For A New Pair Of Dress Shoes

  • by pharaoh

After years of going from job to job with an interest in being financially independent, I’ve learned a special value in wardrobe. It’s important to have your own business attire. Jobs are so comforting and wearing their workplace gear can make you forget about your own. I think it’s important to have dress clothes that you can wear for any corporate environment. Having multiple pairs of each is just as important. Sports shoes and casual footwear are both fun to collect. But there is so much more security in owning three pairs of black dress shoes and three black suits to match.

Your Personal Wardrobe Is An Asset

Most jobs require a branded uniform. They are awesome, they make you feel like you belong. The uniform is visible proof that you belong. At some point, we usually move on from one job to the next and a routine tradition happens, we buy new uniforms. Suddenly, an investment that we have made no longer serves us. Then, we repeat that same investment for a new company. Here is the part that I would like to emphasize. In between jobs, we go to interviews and we wear business attire.

Invest In Yourself

Your clothing is a tool, use it that way.
