New Year and the hustle continues...

4 days into the New Year and it keeps getting busy! I have so many things I want to do before summer hits! Not even till the end of the year!! Right off the bat in January, I’ll be back to traveling! Las Vegas on the 10th and 30th, Washington DC for the inauguration on the 19th – 22nd, New York to hang out on 23rd to 26th, this will be a busy month for me. On top of that, meetings galore! Got so many meetings this month! I’m on my hustle mode! Nothing can and should stop me! I just feel like this is my year to shine!

When I meet new people and I tell them what I do, it may seem so glamorous to them. How cool it is to hang out with celebrities and party the night away from them. It’s not even like that. I think I stress so much more this past two years than I have before. I don’t let it effect me because I know God is always there behind me. I’ve made a lot of sacrifices to get me where I am. I’ve missed so many family and friends events. There are a bunch of things that I couldn’t do because I had other business to attend. I pretty much put my career in front of me. I may seem to have a personal life, but it doesn’t even seem like it. I always have to be available for meetings, last minute events, travels, etc…

Lately, I’ve been feeling that I need to be more about family also. I’ve been hanging out with a lot of family in the past few months and it felt good. I was able to catch up with them and see how they’re doing. You’re family will always be there for you, if not God will most definitely will be there. It was just all the holiday love that I’ve been getting.

When people say “You can do whatever you put your heart into”, I say you can also. If you have the desire to be the best in your field, it’s not that hard! It’s about having the drive and the heart, when you wake up everyday.

I went to the Crystal Cathedral in the OC on Christmas Eve and it was dope. I went inside one of their offices and they had quotes on the walls. The ones I like were:
“Tough times never last… But tough people do!”

Also:
“When faced with a mountain
I WILL NOT QUIT
I will keep on striving
Until I climb over,
Find a pass through,
Tunnel underneath
Or simply stay and
Turn the mountain
Into a miracle,With GOD’S help!”
