If so, I can totally relate. I have come to realize that the saying that “nothing changes if nothing changes” is really true. Nothing changes if I focus on staying angry about the past.

There is a call on your life that only you can respond to. No one else can do it for you; it has to be fulfilled by you.

The call over your life is one that you must answer in order for you to fulfill your destiny. Read more

It takes a person with a certain type of tenacity and vision to pursue entrepreneurship. Read more

OCTOBER 10, 2019

You are never too young or too old to pick up a paint brush and start creating a masterpiece! For the past few years, I have been curious about what seems to me to be a growing trend; paint nite sessions. I had seen other people in my local community attending Paint Nite events while I was dining at restaurants and bars where the Paint Nites were being held, and I found it fascinating how people could create brand new pieces of art from scratch within a few hours. Could I really do the same? Was it possible for me to unleash my inner visual artist and create something worthy of hanging on my wall with only a few hours of guidance? Read more
