I Done Done IT!

I'm a risk-taker and visionary by nature. When I was writing country songs and wanted to immerse myself into the culture, I convinced my sister to travel to Nashville with me. Now, I didn't get discovered, but I had a good time at the Bluebird Cafe, The Basement, and the Grand Ole Opry. In my early 20s, I relocated to my home state (New York, baby!) with only the promise of a job interview. Despite my current lot in life, which is not bad by any stretch of the imagination, I am determined to manifest my hearts' truest desires.

Today, I made a significant financial investment into MYSELF. Like any entrepreneur, I'm a little nervous because there is absolutely NO guarantee of a return on the investment. Y'all, before I took the leap of faith, I prayed and sought the counsel of trusted friends and family members. Despite their feedback, I had to make the ultimate decision, and I did. The money has been spent. Faith tells me my expectations will be exceeded. God rewards faithfulness, even when it wavers just a little bit. Had I not trusted my gut, the end result would have been a forgone conclusion: failure. I now have a platform onto which to my products will be displayed to MILLIONS. I wanted exposure, and I'm gonna get it.

I've been in similar positions before. This past summer, I nearly had one of my songs recorded by TWO artists. Despite the various setbacks I've experienced, I can't stop dreaming, planning, and executing my visions. I'm in the process of finishing The Alchemist. That book is full of memorable quotes, but my two favorites are "And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it" and "It's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting." I've been dreaming for a very long time. One day, I will see my dreams in LIVING color. Keep me in prayer, my lovelies!
