POSITIVE + THOUGHTS | How much MORE will you BE?


BACK STORY
There is a satisfaction that comes with seeing the fruits of your labor.  
It could be pursuing a degree or a new position at work,
it may be teaching a child their alphabets and witnessing them graduate to reading.
In all these and so many other areas of life
we experience growth, increase and eventually MORE.
More is not about consumption, it is about moving from obscurity to greatness.
More is about developing, growing, maturing in an effort to inspire greatness in others.
How much MORE will you BE?

POSITIVE + THOUGHTS | REAL SUCCESS


BACK STORY
It is my personal belief that everyone wants to be successful. 
What that means to each individual differs greatly.
That quest for success lead us to pursue different paths.
We may find ourselves blending the components of education, experience, innovation, and creativity to achieve what we consider "success".  I heard a very successful business man, pastor and coach say, "Your greatest success lies in your influence."  He went on to say, "I would rather have influence than wealth."  I never heard someone say such a revolutionary statement. Influence, who would have thought?  Over the last few years, I've put into practice being consistent, dependable, giving and passionate about everything I do. I've changed my perspective to seek to become more influential in order to achieve CLOAK's goal of covering those in need through fashion. Today, the impact of that influence translates into true, sustainable success. - Ebonie M. Mukasa, CEO, CLOAK INC

POSITIVE + THOUGHTS | CHANGE THE WORLD


BACK STORY
Did you know that we all have a the capacity to change the world?  How?  It all starts with a thought or an idea.  Have you ever heard, they saying, "as a man thinks, so is he"?  Well, it's true, everything action begins with an thought. What are you thinking? What are your ideas? Are you positive and hopeful, or are you pessimistic and hopeless? What solutions do you want to provide to help others? Why not put your thoughts into action today?  If you align your thoughts with actions and add a little positivity, poof...you just might change the world!

POSITIVE + THOUGHTS | CHOOSE TO BE


BACK STORY
It's easy to let life just "happen".  It's easy to live with no pressure, no concerns, no responsibilities, just floating through life with no purpose or direction. It's called "existing", nothing more, nothing less. BUT what if we decided to BE, to become more than we or those spectators to our lives ever thought we could be?  What would happen if everyone lived on purpose? It is a challenge to BE, but it is worth pursuing a dream, achieving a goal and leaving your mark on the world. Choose to BE.

POSITIVE + THOUGHTS | CHANGE THE WORLD



BACK STORY

Often times we think that it takes celebrity, popularity, financial capacity or something else to make a difference.  Interestingly, if we look back in history, we find that most of the actions or events that changed the world started with someone or something seemingly insignificant or common. Every single one of us has a part to play in shaping the world. Our purposes can be discovered by looking inward at our unique personal gifts, talents and by having confidence in our ideas. Don't discount what you have by focusing on what you don't have.  What you do have can change the world! - Ebonie M. Mukasa, CEO & Founder, CLOAK INC.

POSITIVE + THOUGHTS | BE MORE


BACK STORY
We all encounter "those" days, when nothing goes right, challenges seem insurmountable, answers and solutions seemed far-fetched.  This thought came to mind the morning after one of those days.  I started a new day, but yesterday's issues were still unresolved. I
decided that I would be more than I was the day before.  I decided that I would be more earnest in my efforts and smarter about my decisions. I believe every day presents itself with new ideas and new solutions, we have to be willing to be better daily in order to see receive them. - Ebonie M. Mukasa, CEO and Founder, CLOAK INC

POSITIVE + THOUGHTS: BE BOLD


BACK STORY

"A good friend told me once that I'm bold. I was initially offended, because I immediately correlated bold with audacious, rude and insensitive.  He went on to explain that he saw it as courageous and in order to accomplish the mission of CLOAK INC, that is exactly what I needed to be." - Ebonie M. Mukasa, CEO and Founder, CLOAK INC.
