DESTINATION MOTIVATION

It's not that I want to be the best, I just want to be good.
It's not that I want to win, I just want to say i've tried my best.
It's not that I want to always be happy, I want to be the reason others are.
It's not that I want to fly, I just wanna jump and not worry how high.
It's not that I want to change, I just want to make a difference.
It's not that I want to be the first, I just don't want to be the last.
It's not that I want to be now, I just don't want to be known for my past....

There are struggles in every day. It's up to each one of us to find something positive out of it. Like someone said once, 'when life hands you lemons, make lemonade!' Certainly. But not everyone likes the sour-ness, right? yep. I find it lovely when people always see the good in situations, being bad, or just ordinarily okay. You know? Like, why do some just strive when everything is going good. Well, because it's easy to stay motivated when things are working out in our favor, I see that but think about how much stronger each of us would be if we kept "peddling" even when the wind is blowing against us. Hear me out... It's an instantaneous switch that shuts down mentally and physically when something negative happens to us... If we keep an 'i'm fabulous and awesome' mindset in our heads, we can get through anything.
DON'T MAKE EXCUSES, please!!!
GUILTY! I have certainly been known in the past to be captain excuses!! It's pathetic, I know, but everyone does it, or has done it. Which makes it that more, (forgive me) stupid!!! C'mon peeps!  If we want to make our dreams come true, we've gotta get out of bed first!! Exactly! That is so beautifully true, and I love it! The truth hurts sometimes, but most of the time, it's what we need. A swift kick in the butt if good for us once in a while.

Allow thing to motivate you in unsuspected places. Motivation is everywhere. Keep an open mind and open arms to welcome it. Nothing is weird, and beauty if endless. Create, create, create. but most importantly don't forget to love!

LOVE

Create it, Capture it, Write it....

  While having some much needed time with some co-workers tonight, I was reminded of why I am in love with what I do, and I am continually brought back to the infectious thought that it is all about love. My love for doing hair, my love for photography, and my love for writing. It all goes together consistently. Why do I love what I do? It's evidently because this what I was destined to do.
  Everyone goes to school to do what they think is going to interest, and make them the ideal amount of money. Some know from a very young age what they definitely want to do. To either fulfill their life long dream, or to buy their dream car. I never knew what profession I wanted to have, I just always knew what I wanted people to get out of it. Being happy, and taking something positive each time I visit with them. I know for certain now that I am one of the lucky ones. Not only for being able to do what I do, but being able to better myself repeatedly... If you want to succeed in the beauty industry, you have to be open to change because that's all BEAUTY does anymore. It changes, honey. All the time.
   I am going to keep learning, from when I wipe the sleep out my eyes, til' my nightly talks with the big guy, I am here to do big things, and WORK  honey, WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOVE!!!!!!!!!!
