In some instances it can make or break several years of your life. We should be associating ourselves with like minded individuals while also surrounding ourselves with people that are good at things we aren't. Take your time in figuring these people out and I'd like you to reassess the current givers and takers in your life. Who should stay and who should be phased out? Let...2021-03-0916 minThe Journey with Mr. HarrisBe True to YourselfOn today's episode I talk about the current change shortage at fast food restaurants in America and share a story about how I came across this shortage at a Chipotle. I also touch on the subject of being true to yourself and the idea and the idea of fitting in. We spoke about this at a recent iBelong meeting and I got some interesting feedback.

The Journey with Mr. HarrisZombiesI did things a little different today and spoke about a random thought I had. I was looking around and even assessing myself and felt like people are becoming zombies with the whole Covid experience. It seems like we're all in a depressed state and not stimulating our minds. This state of being a zombie becomes a culture and to combat that, we have to surround ourselves with positive people and make better life decisions. Let's create goals for ourselves, whether they are longterm or short term and have a solid plan for ourselves going forward.
Let's...2021-02-2312 minThe Journey with Mr. HarrisPovertyPoverty is the topic of discussion this week and more definitively, "Why it's easier to stay in poverty rather than strive for more?" One of our iBelong members is heard saying she wishes she could live in the projects and while that statement may be jarring to hear for some, it's commonplace for so many others.
On this episode I'll be giving my response to that statement, talking about financial literacy, the middle and poor classes and our elected officials.
Please share your stories and ideas on this topic.

I hold a discussion with a young group of individuals every Wednesday and we call this group iBelong. In these meetings we discuss current events and local issues while trying to create plans to better ourselves and our communities. Going forward I'll be taking talking points from these discussions and creating a larger dialogue on "The Journey" podcast.
On this episode I'll be touching on why as black and brown people, we don't support each other in our communities.

The Journey with Mr. HarrisHow Do You Measure Changing A Life?As the CEO of a nonprofit, the Renaissance Youth Center, I'm frequently asked to measure the work we are doing. I know our high school graduation rates are good proof, but what about those midnight phone calls helping someone in crisis, or impacts we make on kids that surface a decade later? This episode, I'm joined by our employee James Doernberg, who writes grant proposals for us and thinks about our data a lot. Please share comments or questions on social media, or share your own experience with this topic: reach out to @mrharrisryc, and use #mrharris in your message.

But what does it take to do this work? Let me tell you, it's more than a full-time job... it's a lifestyle. The real work starts when you're off the clock.
