Gratitude

I feel blessed knowing that I can follow my dreams beside a person I love;
I realize how fortunate I am to be able to wake up each day and pursue a career that I’m still passionate about; through hard work, Faith, and the support of my family and friends––I continue to journey closer to the peak.
Not everyone has the opportunity that I’ve had.
I am grateful.

Goals into Gold

Setting goals is the key to reaching dreams;
But if you don’t enjoy the journey––it can be a nightmare.

Escape Negativity and Shine

I have two options:
Fear or Faith.
People can only disappoint you, when you give them the power to.
I need to ask for what I want (which I’m fairly good at) and then move on whether they help me or not (which I’m fairly bad at).
Life is too short to live in negativity.
So I must do whatever it takes to crawl out of the darkness and into the light.
Sometimes it’s hard to find the light switch, but it’s always worth it once you shine.

Reflecting

How many years am I willing to live in a state of bling optimism?
As long as I still want my goals and dreams to come true, and I'm dedicated to hard work.
Life is too short to do anything you don't love -
"If you only knock long enough and loud enough at the gate, you are sure to wake up somebody." - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
There is no harm in living a life with a confidence, a brilliant outlook, positive energy, and action!"
If the goals aren't accomplished, at least I died trying.

Realizing My Achievments

As a kid I never questioned my goals and dreams;
I knew exactly what I wanted and no one could convince me that my path might be a challenging one.
I stayed focused and confident.
Slowly I began achieving small victories that guided me to new opportunities.
I've made a career out of following every twist and turn,
I've said "yes" to new adventures and unexpected offers.
It's important that I "check in" with myself at every stage of my life to realize that I have enjoyed a continuous journey of growth, discovery and success.
As long as I stay committed to my Faith, confidence and hard work, I will soar.

Daily Reminder Number: I Can't Even Remember...

In order to achieve ANY goal I have to implement these three things;

Hard work,

Faith,

Patience.

It doesn't hurt to enjoy the process and live in the moment either~

Stay focused on following my passion and actively enjoying the adventure.

The end goal will be achieved when the perfect opportunity comes along,

So be ready if for it but don't sit around waiting,

Get out there and live!

The Process

I've dedicated the greater part of my life working toward a dream that I've had since I was a kid;

I said yes to every new opportunity that came my direction,

I struggled to stay focused when things didn't go the way I'd planned.

It hasn't always been easy or fun for that matter;

But the fact is I've been hard at work making my dreams come true;

Every day,

Every set back,

Every "no," is another chance to learn and grow. 

Every day is a new experience.

I have no doubt that I will be in that room one day soon-

It will be surreal.

But I will know that I earned my place there!

Great Day!

When the faith is there,

The passion remains,

The work is focused,

The energy is invested,

and the opportunity arises-

The dream comes true.

Do More!

Wanting it is not enough;
Dreaming about it is just the beginning-
Visualizing it starts the process,
Talking about it encourages growth,
Taking action excelerates the process,
Working your ass off keeps it moving forward;
Patience and faith keep you sane-
It will happen when it's supposed too!

Chaos or Creation...

With chaos comes creation...

Or at least that's what I'm telling myself today!

It's funny, I'm the type of person who says "yes" to as many projects and activities as possible.

Because if I've learned one thing in this industry, it's the truth:

When it rains it pours! ...and when there's a drought- you can't get a job to save your life.

So I strive to live in a constant downpour- My thought, continue creating energy and the energy will continue to flow in your direction...

This week is no exception! I'm not going to lie, I'm excited and nervous all at the same time.

This is the week I make my re-entrance into the wonderful world of Stand Up comedy!

My show is at Room 5 in Hollywood May 20, 2010 at 9:30 PM!

If the stress of being funny for seven minutes alone on a stage wasn't enough... I'm also co-producing a video parody of The Real Housewives of New York City, and I'm still directing the musical Mamma Mia!

I guess I've learned to really be great at juggling activities and I try to bring my "A" game with me to each of the arenas I'm tackling... There are times when I fall flat, or the project doesn't turn out the way I'd hoped. Nevertheless, more often than not, I'm proud of what I've accomplished and I've made another step in the right direction.

Let's just hope that when I arrive at my final destination, I'll be able to look back and have a reservoir of wild adventures, wonderful memories and creations that stand on their own!

Success

I want to be in that room- and not for any other reason than to look around, soak in the surreal atmosphere and know that I am there because I worked hard, never gave up and made it as an artist.
