Janet AutheriNe

Author, Publisher,  Speaker

“Greatness is finding your
natural talent, fueling it
with passion, planting it
in well-nourished soil,
and toiling in the garden
until it breaks through the
earth and reaches for the
stars. ”

I am proud to announce the 2nd Edition of Growing into God: 7 Paths to Greatness for our Sons and Daughters! You asked for it and we created it. The 2nd Edition of Growing into Greatness with God also includes a workbook that parents, leaders of youth organizations and sunday school leaders can use as a teaching tool. “Every child is created in the image of God, and every child carries this amazing gift of greatness inside himself or herself. But children hear mixed messages on a daily basis--about life, about the world, and about themselves. In Growing into Greatness with God: Seven Paths to Greatness for Our Sons and Daughters, author and mother of three boys Janet Autherine encourages kids to see themselves as unique and amazing--already blessed with what they need to succeed in life and achieve their God-given dreams.” Amazon link in bio. #childrensbooks #childrensbook #growingintogreatnesswithgod #growingintogreatness #inspirationforkids #bible #biblestudy #biblestories #fellowship #blackchurch #gospel #sundayschool #summercamp #pathtogreatness #kidscamp #booksforkids #bestseller #bestsellingauthor #vacationbibleschool #jesus #kingdavid #diversebooks #literature #readingtime #readinglist #readingisfundamental #booknerd #selfpublished #writer
“She will walk into welcoming arms or be content to sit in solitude. Her hands are weathered from a lifetime of service. Always extended to hug, care for, toil, fix every broken spirit. For now, they will rest by her side.” For my beautiful mothers, sisters, friends, aunties, grandmothers who care for us all. We love and appreciate you. Pause and take some time for self care (body, mind & soul) nothing works unless you are healthy and happy. 💕. #hersunrises #mother #girlfriend #girlfriends #sister #sisterhood #selfcare #mothersday #mothersdaypoem #poem #poetry #poetrycommunity #poetryforthesoul #lovepoems #lovepoetry #sungod #sungoddess #blacklove #sisterlylove #grandma #repost #hardworkingwoman #singlemom #singlemomlife #poetrynation #jamaicanpoets #blackpoet #onelove #janetautherine

Congratulations 🎉🎊🎈 graduates!!! Footprints in the Sand- A Message to Graduates Today may feel heavy - a mix of joy, gratitude, excitement and fear of all that is to come. Don’t fear. In the eyes of God, you are light and easy to carry. You may not be able to see it but a path has already been prepared for you. I pray that your journey will always be easy and those that God place in your path will embrace you with arms extended, ready to give you the love and support that you need. Godspeed as you embark on a journey of self-discovery. When you walk down a dark path, always remember that there is a light within you. Always remember that greatness is within you. Starting today, walk confidently into your purpose. Your ancestors have left powerful footprints in the sand. Rise up and leave your own unique footprints. We love you. We believe in you. The world needs you. @JanetAutherine Repost and tag all your graduates and the parents and friends who have loved and supported them on the journey. #graduation #repost #graduate #graduates #happygraduation #congratulations #graduated #gradschool #highschool #highschoolgraduation #college #collegegrad #collegegraduate #success #capandgown #graduationphoto #tuition #studentlife #studentloans #scholarship #youdidit #graduation2018 #blackgraduates #dreamjob #africanamericangraduation #collegebound #growingintogreatness #becauseofthemwecan #ancestors
Have you ever been distracted by a “shiny thing?” We all have. You are confidently walking in your purpose and it appears. You heart pounds, your hands sweat and your mind is filled with a mix of excitement and confusion. - you are on your way to college but get offered job with an attractive salary. - you are about to marry your high school sweetheart and she walks in. - you have done all your research and ready to buy the car that you can afford but the salesperson shows you the newer model. - your dream job is 5 more rungs up the ladder but this lateral position is available right away and it pays more. You take the plunge. Occasionally, it means a lifetime of regret but most of the time, it is simply a life lesson and one that needs to be learned in order to know yourself better so that next time you can walk in your purpose with more poise and confidence. It is fun to go off the path a few times in life. These life lessons make good stories. However, as we mature, course correction becomes a bit more challenging. It becomes more important not to be distracted by “shiny things.” Identify your goals, write them down and place them where you can see them everyday. Life is filled with distractions but the victory is sweet when we walk in our purpose and stay true to our ideals. What has been the “shiny thing” experience in your life? #distraction #purpose #purposedriven #ontherightpath #offroad #footprintsinthesand #confidence #confidentwomen #excited #confused #sweatypalms #heartbeat #rightmove #roadlesstraveled #highschoolsweetheart #dreamjob #collegebound #toughchoice #inspire #inspirationalquotes #humanity #shinythings #instagood #writer #wefalldown #getbackup #growingintogreatness #janetautherine #onelove
Would you hide me? That question make me feel instantly vulnerable. It is the kind of question that makes you stop and assess your life. How do we define success? Are we so busy climbing ladders and checking off things on our “to do” list that we haven’t stopped to build meaningful relationships? Warren Buffett has had tremendous success but he is known to living a frugal life and focusing on building meaningful relationship with his family and a small circle of trusted friends. We don’t have to value the same things but take time to identify what matters to you the most and make sure that you are nurturing it on a daily basis. The things in our lives that we water will grow and bloom and shine brightly. @janetautherine. #friendship #success #warrenbuffett #lifequotes #risingstar #inspiration #motivationalquotes #meaningfullife #purposedrivenlife #purposedriven #charity #vulnerability #friendshipgoals #financialsuccess #lovewhatyoudo #beautifullife #goodlife #prosperity #inspirationalwriter #growingintogreatness #janetautherine #writersofinstagram #poet #writinglife #frugal #money #financialfreedom #berkshirehathaway #onelove
When Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achibe expanded my view of the world. That is the role of a great book and the legacy of a great author. “Nobody can teach me who I am. You can describe parts of me, but who I am - and what I need - is something I have to find out myself.” “If you don't like my story, write your own” “My weapon is literature” #chinuaachebe #greatbooks #whenthingsfallapart #nigeria #selfdevelopment #selfdiscovery #nigerianwriters #nigerianauthors #pioneer #wisdom #inspirationalwriter #writerscommunity #writersofinstagram #africanwriters #blackwriters #goodreads #wordsofwisdom #booklover #storytelling #storyteller #growingintogreatness #janetautherine #literature #freedom #inspire #motivation #justwrite #onelove
