You might say I’m an introvert/extrovert as I’m happy to be both behind the scenes and centre stage.
I’m not happy when I stay in my comfort zone for too long however, as a creative, I get bored.
Boredom however eventually provokes action and productivity.
I’ve persued many different projects for thrills and excitement throughout my life and today is no exception.
For many months now I’ve been busy behind the scenes and you might notice I’ve not been centre stage for over 12 months now.
I’ve not been singing and dancing on festival stages or painting my face and dressing up as a potato.
I’ve not been in the recording studio and producing more music videos to release for charities or going live in the Learning Lounge and presenting to camera but I have been a very, very busy bee.
I’ve been carefully planning.
I’ve been making some tough decisions and strategic moves. I’ve been waiting for things to play out, I’ve been biding my time, I’ve had to learn to be patient.
I’ve been in lots of meetings and making some very big decisions. I’ve been investing time and money in the next important stage of my business and in my career moving forward.
Being self employed is all I’ve known since I was 23, it’s how I live and breathe, it’s how I think and survive.
Being the lead director in a Start Up Limited Company comes with an incredible amount of responsibility, especially when launching during a global pandemic.
I wouldn’t change a thing however, I like a challenge.
I believe in myself and I believe in the powers of the universe. I am a spiritual being with a strong belief that everything happens for a reason and I am exactly where I am meant to be.
Timing is everything.
There are no guarantees, life is what we make it and continual opportunities are there to be created.
Success is taking the path unknown, not just arriving at the destination.
For the past 8 years, I’ve said that the following year will be the year but I’ve realised looking back over time that the year before that was pretty incredible too.
I have learned and grown so much simply by trying to chase my dreams.
I genuinely can’t tell you where I’ll be in 5 years or indeed 5 months but I know where I won’t be…
In my comfort zone.
