Many of us remember being told that we need to go to college and find a good job. Discussion over. Today the rules have changed. In many cases we make them up ourselves. Going to college is still a great idea. The experience, relationships and curriculum prepares students for this adventure that we call the real world. The game-changer is the job. Do we work for someone? Invest our talents, ideas and hard work and plan on this being our sole career purpose? Do we take a chance and begin our own venture to see if it can pay the bills? Do we do both? What about life balance? What about our social-life?
These are all great matters to consider and the answer is different for everyone. We have a special treat coming up this Saturday with Tiffani Stokley as our featured presenter. She will be leading a discussion on Career Transition. So please register because you don't want to miss this one. Join us for a productive time of Networking, continental breakfast and promoting your business goals and career needs.
The BWBB is committed to helping you take your idea from thought to thriving. We are equal opportunity and invite anyone with a positive attitude to join us.

Happy Black History Month Quotes by inspiring Black Women-Read something great!
You don’t become what you want; you become what you believe.
Oprah Winfrey
You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it.
Maya Angelou
Sometimes you’ve got to let everything go—purge yourself . . . If you are unhappy with anything . . . whatever is bringing you down, get rid of it. Because you’ll find that when you’re free, your true creativity, your true self comes out.
Tina Turner
Don’t settle for average. Bring your best to the moment. Then, whether it fails or succeeds, at least you know you gave all you had. We need to live the best that’s in us.
Angela Bassett

Nikki Giovanni
I have learned over the years that when one’s mind is made up, this diminshes fear.

Just don’t give up what you’re trying to do. Where there is Love and inspiration, I don’t think you can go wrong.

When I dare to be powerful – to use my strength in the service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid.
