Xposed Youth Communications

Xposed Youth Communications
Posted By: Jon C. on August 15, 2008
FEATURED Content

Xposed Youth Communications is an organization formed to promote a positive youth lifestyle involving activism, responsibility, and empowerment. Through interactive presentations, motivational speaking and group training, Xposed presents a way to excel, and leaves behind the stereotype that has befallen the youth of today.

XPOSED was founded in the fall of 2006, by Tristan Hall and Brandyn McElroy. Their idea was to form an organization that reverses the declining image of today’s youth, by promoting positive youth development and lifestyles.



Because of their own personal experiences, they were motivated to create presentations, workshops, and trainings that addressed the real life issues of America’s youth. They wanted to show youth that they didn't have to fit certain stereotypes to succeed.

After receiving request from adults and community professionals, they realized that adults wanted training on how to work successfully with today’s youth. This resulted in the creation of adult sessions that expose the communication barriers and help create successful partnerships between youth and adults.

Commit. Make a decision to follow your dreams that the Lord put in your heart no matter what others say. Know with absolute certainty that you will see the vision come to pass because you’re determined and God showed you. Psalm 37:5
Be Prudent. Don’t make decisions before knowing all the facts. Work smart and you won’t have to work hard. Prov. 27:12
Be Prepared. Don’t wait until there is an emergency or a deadline before you get moving on project. Successful people plan ahead. Haste makes waste. Prov. 21:31
Be focused. Get clear on what you want and don’t get distracted. If something doesn’t put you closer to your goal, drop it. Clarity is power. Prov. 29:18
Be diligent. Finish what you start. Remember the end of thing is better than the beginning. If it worth starting – don’t’ be lazy – finish it! Prov. 13:4
Be Teachable. Don’t refuse good advice and accept instruction. Get all the help you can. All successful people had mentors and role models. Prov. 13:18
Be persistent. Be relentless. Tackle every task that God puts before you and expect a blessing. Quitters never win and winners never quit. Press toward the mark. Prov. 24:10
