Investment Into The Future
Hello people it's me once again coming to drop gems. . .
Right now it's 6:35pm I should be studying but I feel that I have something very important to say. Last night I was on twitter during my study break cussing about exams and Izabela of CreamWorld Magazine said "don't eff exams it's an investment into the future" and the conversation got more in depth about taking steps into the future. Not to mention I was talking to my little cuz last night helping her with trying to make some good decisions in terms of school. Then I got ta thinking, hmmm maybe everything that I have done so far is an investment to the future, even like little things like making friends with Malayika (check out her blog too) who has been one of THE greatest mentors, going to Shannon's book launch for Laid (which I recommend everybody get), to even joining twitter and talking to Izabela because of these actions I have furthered myself into going into mu career of choice. I can't lie there are even times when I doubt myself or question even why I do this blog, but it's that investment into the future that keeps me going. Going to school, going on twitter, facebook, going to industry parties are some of the little things that are being put into making my dreams come true.
Another example of this would be Marlon Palmer(check out his blog) and Laith Hakeem both of them are good friends of my best friend Ms. Douce and they both were in the VJ Search they both probably had all the enthusiasm in the world but to be in the top 4 and top 3 it was probably a crazy experience although neither of them won for the masses they feel well that's the end of the road. But really it's an investment into their future from having the exposure that they have had and having as much fans as they have the sky's the limits for these two guys. In a way they are an inspiration because it shows what dreams mixed with hard work and determination can do.
So to another example of this would be Miss Mary(visit her blog as well), she did my photoshoot back in September and til this day I am still in love with the photos that she took. I remember even meeting her I was like wow she is really cool but besides that she is someone that is determined and trying to get herself out there which I know will happen going from New York City to Egypt, just looking at her photos you know she has the qualities to be something really big and her photos mirror her investment into the future, whether or not she is with a team or she is by herself.
So before I go I would like to say that many of times it seems to hard to really put dreams into a reality but sometimes if you want something bad enough you will go through every avenue to get that, and that's where the investment begins. Life is like a bank and things can all change depending on what type of bank account you have and wen you deposit different things into an investment plan you will reap the benefits!
