Unpacking Maverick

Maverick! A person of distinction.

I never regarded writing as one of my strengths. Never considered sharping the skill to be a tool that could be used for healing. I never imagined it as a tool that I could use to earn an income.

Life had a laugh at my foolish thinking and set me on a course to develop this creative art could writing.

Let's be honest. in the beginning, my writing was terrible, my spelling horrible, and my use of the English language unconventional. A Total disregard for the rules of the English Language.

From my inappropriate beginnings a few years ago something has changed. Firstly my grammar and spelling have improved dramatically. I must admit that I still have some growing to do in this regard before I let go of the spell checker.

Writing has also brought much healing and given me a new voice to express myself. It has allowed me to express emotions, thoughts, and imaginations that were becoming toxic in a constructive manner. See, I regard myself as an introvert, which I am now proud of. Generally, the words introvert and public speaking don't go together. However, writing set me on a course of developing the confidence to express my inner conversation, which would have stayed Hidden.

These inner conversations eventually found their way to paper which have been shaped into tools that now earn revenue for myself and others.

I am grateful to unpack Writing out this Maverick my parents decided to call Steven Wayne Nicholls.

The Genesis Moment

Th e Genesis Moment: Forming Order During Chaos Genesis means “beginning,” teaching us to create order from chaos. Instead of fearing disorder, we can establish structure, embrace responsibility, and build a foundation for growth. Becoming Maverick means transforming through challenges and stepping into stewardship over your life. Let's apply the Genesis Mindset today. Genesis—it means "beginning." I often find myself returning to the first few chapters of Genesis , especially when life feels out of control and chaotic or when I'm facing things I don’t fully understand. There’s something about these opening words of the Bible that carries profound wisdom—wisdom we often overlook. Becoming Maverick is about stepping back, recognizing the principles that govern life, and applying them with intention. Too often, we get caught up in religious or scientific debates about Genesis and miss the principles it offers for how life on earth actually works. But if we take a st...
