It literally has no idea what is real and what is imagined. It only knows the story you keep repeating to it.
So if your mind says, “you feel unmotivated,” you don’t have to accept that. respond to that with,
“No I don’t. Matter of fact, I’ve never felt more motivated in my life than I do right now”
If it says, “you’re tired,” you say
“Not really. I’ve never had this much energy before.”
Your mind will follow whatever story you persist in.
That’s why people say you have to stay disciplined with your thoughts. Not because you need to be perfect, but because we are always persisting in some type of story anyway.
You’re either repeating the story you don’t want, or the one you do want.
And the story you keep telling yourself is often the only “blockage” people experience when manifesting their desires.
So instead of persisting in the version where things aren’t working, start persisting in the version where everything is already going in your favor.
Your mind doesn’t know the difference, it only knows the story you keep telling it.
hear me out: smoke is way nastier and freaked out than ppl assume especially girls that wanna fuck. but smoke?? he had a few sex partners but no one really knows how he gets down in bed, hes real picky. no girls in their hometown can say they bedded him. hes not on no kiss and tell sht either
he’s impatient in way where hes always in a fuck it mood, clothes in the way? pull it to the side, dont even give a fuck if his g*ns still strapped to him hes in that immediately.
and when annie first got w him, she was like hes gonna be like all the others and have her on her back, grunting and jamming. but boy was she wrong. he was talking the nastiest sht, had her in all different ways she didnt even think she could be in. and they went all night cus smoke can last. annie never had a man that can make her tap out.
and smoke dont mind a pillow princess, he rather do it his way, tease, edge, retrain, bite all that but he also dont mind a girl that can give back. now annie dont kiss and tell but theres signs: limping, hickies, loss of voice, always mf PREGNANT. smoke can never just be out in a tank, cus his back and arms be decorated in love marks
smoke also not really a pda typa guy but hes a kisser like a real mf kisser and he be having urges just to tongue annie down especially on date nights, having her drunk off of his mouth and bystanders shook at what they just saw
and theres always whispers with hints of jealousy: “u seen annie? i just know smoke turned her out”, “her hair was done last night” , “there she go pregnant again”
smoke is so nonchalant and mean he dont play abt annie at all so tryna talk abt his and annie’s sex life would be seen as disrespect.
and the girls stay trying to get annie to spill the details and who knows maybe one day she might.
i can lowkey seen this as a one shot, but that scene of annie n smoke in her shop lives rent free in my head
I had to take a moment to breakdown the kissing scene between Annie and Elijah. And also point out the casting of Wunmi immediately after her audition (with MBJ's enthusiastic co-sign) was absolutely correct! Perfect casting.
I've never seen this level of chemistry, passion and intimacy in a few short minutes.
Many people on tumblr have made a lot of these same observations.
Let's unpack and add more in the comments LOL
Intense eye contact - Elijah tracks Annie as she walks to him.
The way he moves his body in her direction
Consent - Annie pulling him to her, almost like signaling that it's okay, let go. He also exhales.
The first kiss - He goes in for the kiss on her chest.
Annie turning it up - She goes from his neck to his ear. Notice when she (bites?) his ear he moves slightly towards her. She also whispers in his ear "Tell me when to stop" likely Wunmi seeing if she's crossing any of Michael's boundaries (something their intimacy coach probably discussed with them) but the way she says it felt like she was trying to get in his head. MBJ ain't gonna tell you to stop NOTHING.
(From the alternate version)
The grab - Notice that thumb adjustment?!? He also moans here.
The Choke - Notice how he leans into it.
You drooling?!? - Notice him leaning into that ear lick, him starting to salivate and lick his lips.
The 'Oh yeah' that Michael I mean Elijah says during this scene.
Now I can't read lips, but others have said that's what he said and it definitely looks like that to me. 🧐
Look At Me - When she wakes Smoke up and he starts to take control. Notice how he pulls back, not letting her kiss him, until she looks into his eyes. 🔥
Face grabbing, Nose smushing - He also has a hold on her bottom lip when they take off his jacket.
(This was from the alternate version).
The Ear part 2 - look how he chases her ear and she leans into it. She even guides his head a bit. Her fingers seem to be reacting too.
(This is from the alternate version)
And they are fully clothed. His mom where?!? That's Mama AND Papa. Don't get it twisted.
