The one thing I learned is that you can't wait for other
people to be ready to help you make your dreams come true. You have to get up
and do it yourself.
If I would have waited for someone to keep their word
about helping me "get to the top" I would have never taken the first
step. Also people go through things, I understand.
I'm tired of being on the backburner. I watch everyone
else climb to the top of the mountain. I'm the best hand of cards they have,
but they never use me. So, from here on out I only want to associate with a
team of people who want to help me bring out my highest potential and Launch me
into Greatness.
I'm ready to put my work in. Now that I have a few things
in order I’m taking matters into my own hands, the business woman, the model
and the talent.
No Room For Failure
People describe success in a variety of ways. Your idea
of success could be that you graduated college, bought a new house, or had your
first child.
My success is finally having the money to make things
happen in my life. A prime example is the modeling (creative art) thing.
People constantly tell me, "you should model"
or ask me "do you model?" But, let us stop and think about this for a
minute: To model, you need money, so you can invest in yourself (you are the
product), pay for gas to travel to all the auditions and casting calls and pay
for pictures etc. If you don't have a job, then you don't have the money to do
all of that (unless you have a sugar daddy or you’re born into money...). The
end goal is make money from this modeling thing. I have in the past yet, 20
dollars here and 40 bucks here for little snippets of exposure but I have been
ready to go beyond.
I'm finally in a place where I have
1. The confidence
2. The money
3. Transportation and
4. The opportunity.
I may not be Tyra Banks, but I will get to be on the
cover of a magazine and in a few top, high quality fashion shows. Remember, I
don't want my name associated with anything that isn't top quality. That's just
how I am. And if that means I have to wait for the right opportunity then I will.
Some people might be turned off by the new photos because
they are a bite more "mature" and "sexy." But, I'm a grown
lady. Also, with being a working, grown lady I finally have a say in what I
choose to do with my modeling career.
So many people in the past, made promises to help me, get
me exposure, but what good is exposure if it is not a national level where
millions of people can see you. The whole point is for "exposure" is
to be SEEN, what good will it do you if your just seen in little ol' Raleigh.
NO, I want national exposure because there is SOME designer out there who I
have yet to meet, who will fall in love with my look. I believe it, that I will
sign with a top modeling and talent agency and it will all work out for my
good, for glory of God.
This is the new me and I love it! No Mary Poppins and No
Plain Jane live here.
