The Simple Life

This song by Goapele is just a reminder of how thankful we need to be for every day. Each day leads to obstacles and opportunity's that we may or may not act on. I have made a hand full of both, some great rewarding decisions and my fair share of bad ones. So on my last day when I clocked out for that last time. I listened to this song. As I drove on down the highway, fear set in and I began to second guess my decisions. Which by the way EVERYONE close to me would smile and grin at the choice to take this LEAP. (they too afraid of the unknown) But we will chat about that later. This is when I chose to remove the negative energy and doubt and let God lead the way. The video below by Mary Mary pretty much sums it up. This song helped me put things in perspective.I have to listen to it often just to push out the negative thoughts and energy & get back on track.

 Today is July 15th and I have been on one heck of a emotional and spiritual roller-coaster. Stepping out of my comfort zone and sitting still was not something I planned for. But when you quit your paying job and are stuck working with what you have in the bank you can only do so much until that cash flow comes in again. This is all new to me. But I have great friends and family that have helped me when needed.(so thankful for them) Either way I have to keep in mind why I made this change in life, and that is to live my dream and in doing so I can assist others in achieving theirs as well.

Every since my daughter was born (Jaylen who is 15 now, but teenage parenting is a completely different topic lol) I have enjoyed  Graphic Design and have a degree in Fine Arts. So I have always wanted that to be my professional career. However being trapped in the mad world of retail for so many years, I was pretty much stuck. Until NOW!

Upon leaving my job I have begun stetting the tone for my own company CREATIVE VIBES by Nina B. CREATIVE VIBES is a creative marketing company that offers marketing services & consulting. I strive to provide marketing techniques and planning to help jump start up and coming business owners or artist trying to get a foot in the door.

 Starting from stratch, as they say, is not the easiest thing to do with out funding or sponsorship. One of my Clients who is a stylist and make up artist reminded me that, "you are only as good as the products you have to work with. Just keep working to upgrade and get the things you need to provide the BEST service is all you can do." She was so right.  So the next several blog entries will be about my 

8 seasons in this journey.
