AuthorgirlParticipantAlso, with this generation of kids growing up, bullying is the “norm.” Being self critical is the ” norm”
Like, I’ve worked in the entertainment industry as a journalist for many years. And what I’ve learned from it- is its politics and nature is brutal; because it’s all about money and business at the end of the day. It’s not about being human. And if you go into it you have to understand that there is certain amount of battery you have to be willing to go through to sustain in it. It’s a very,very toxic environment- that breaks down your mind, because there is always that person, who is willing to do anything to anybody to get ahead.
Which doesn’t work for me, because I genuinely care about people. The maximum joy I get is to create something that makes someone else’s life better and brighter. I’m past cars and jewelry- you know? I don’t even wear a watch or anything. But the joy I get from entertainment journalism is seeing how celebrities are able to use their fame, to make someone else’s life a little brighter or better. It’s like a power they possess, where God chose them out of everyone else to heal people, help people. etc. All they have to do is shake somebody’s hand, or smile and write their name on a sheet of paper- and it’s something that person will remember or think about the rest of their lives ( literally) and may even change them for the better or worse, depending on the encounter. I find that humans aren’t creatures of logic, we are creatures of emotion. And we do not care what is true, we only care about how it feels. So in seeing the power that fame can have on others, that’s what attracted me to the profession initially. I wanted to be apart of it and use my platform to write an article that may impact the lives of 6,000- 10,000 people, just by reading it- inspiring a new thought, discussion, changing your mind- etc – not to get off the point, I pray that, you are feeling better about yourself. And that you know that, your failures are only surface and as big as you allow them to be. That is doesn’t define you.

AuthorgirlParticipantHey : )
The most important thing is to look at everything in a positive light . Don’t let negativity define you. Be confident in yourself and honest with yourself. Only surround yourself with people who push you spiritually in a positive direction. I’m a perfectionist at heart, so I’m often seen as two-dimensional. I’m so good at what I do, people forget I’m human. I cry too, I lose too,and I fail too.- behind the scenes, but I make success look effortless in front of an audience.
My only advice is to enjoy life and make yourself hard wired for a deeper connection between service and God. Make sure you reflect that in any art you chose. Mine is writing. There’s so much I want to say to inspire others, and I haven’t figured out a way to say it in my art. I’m trying to figure out how to heal others using my artistic form- that way I am servicing God too. The quality of your life is always determined by the quality of your service to others in need. I have a higher calling when writing. Using it as a way to uplift someone whether it is humorous or entertaining- reading it, makes their day better. Ultimately, my goal is to brighten the world- that is the central aspect of my personality. That is my service to mankind.
I have a ” psychotic” work ethic.That’s enjoyable for me. I love pushing myself. Bruce Lee has a quote that I am trying to shift my life towards that was enlightening- ” Some targets are only meant to be aimed at” – meaning that by my own choice, my mind isn’t going to dwell on failures, the only thing that matters is the “right here and right now”. Don’t let success go to your head and failure go to your heart. Hope this helps : )
