A successful mindset

I had a very insightful conversation with a friend last night about what it takes to make it. We spoke on how so many people think that just "showing up" will be enough to get the job done. LOL, boy are they in for a surprise...if that was the case then there wouldn't be 3 million struggling artist in LA alone! Before you can sit at Starbucks and join in on the gripes all the artist have with the industry, you have to take a really close look at yourself and ask..."Am I really doing all I can to make it?" If that answer isn't a very clear & big "YES" then you need to revisit your game plan. So what... you can sing, act, dance or produce...so can everyone else! If the talent is already in place then your focus needs to rest on the development of business a d networking skills. For some of you that may suck if you were planning on just being creative and letting everyone else handle the boring stuff. You should at least know enough about multiple things to get the ball rollin and create enough momentum to attract people that'll take it from there. Be creative not just in your art form but also in your approach and you'll get further than you ever have before!

My 25th BIRTHDAY!

 

 

 

 

My friends joined me in celebrating my 25th Birthday at Firefly in Studio City, CA and it was amazing! This year my birthday fell on a Monday so the spot was pretty much empty, good for us cause we had the WHOLE place to ourselves! My brother BK came through and of course I was accompanied by the beautful Ashli aka @sleepysongbird_ for those of you who follow us on twitter. All in all the night was dope and I kicked of this milestone year with my friends and family, thanks for the great time ya'll! Now, onto making this year another success :-)
