..pieces to success

I cannot tell you the direct path to success, but I can assure you it’s not some straight path without any turns, drop offs or hazards. Such a road is commonly referred to as luck. There is no straight path to success, but there are principles, and unfortunately, most of those principles are hidden.

Why the topic of success? Well starting a business, I have had many trials and errors. Needless to say, I’ve had my fair share of failures and mishaps, but coming back from this my first of many business trips, it finally dawned on me that even though I am this close to succeeding, I’m moving too fast. Yes I’ve been planning for this since I was 15, and even though every piece of the puzzle is slowly falling into place, I’m way too anxious.

Planning takes time, perseverance and above all patience. Walking the path planned is even harder. What am I trying to say? Even when see the light at the end of the tunnel, do not run, because in your excitement, you just might trip.

Ambition

Today’s post is proudly sponsored by Ambition – Wale feat. Meek Mill & Rick Ross, which was introduced to my by my boy @st3ez.

That said, there is a saying that goes shoot for the moon, if you miss you’ll land among the stars…(not on top of your girl as Pitt Bull would think). At any rate it seems people are content with what they currently have. I mean, where’s the ambition, the motivation or the determination to do something new.

It goes without saying, but had the word ambition never existed, 747′s wouldn’t be flying between NYC and London, Bill gates wouldn’t value over $50 billion, Man would have never traversed the surface of the moon, we’d have never known water was on mars and of course we’d still be lighting candles at 7PM every day.

Success is not guaranteed on the first try, but failure should never be an option.

Mylo Xyloto

It’s not everyday that I get excited for an album release. In fact, music albums come and go, but out of all the artists I listen to, Coldplay is the only artist I consistently follow. It all dates back to 2005 when I first heard about them, which is ironic because I was on my way to summer camp and stopped by a Wal-Mart to pick up some outdoor supplies when I saw the band’s X&Y concert playing all over the store (the concert was sponsored by Wal-Mart).
