CEO.  President. Executive. Owner. Boss.  We love the titles because they insinuate power, authority and most importantly - leadership. 
The entertainment industry puts a lot of weight on titles and labels, but wearing the label doesn't produce the character.  Being in a position of authority doesn't automatically make someone a leader.  "Leader" isn't a title or position, it's action and example.

Vaccinations are on the rise but not even close to the satisfaction of many government and heath officials. 
As companies (entertainment and media companies alike) are beginning to adopt requiring vaccinations for employment, to work on set, and to be involved in projects in any capacity, if you are unvaccinated, what are you prepared to do?

From Mike Richards on Jeopardy to fake High School football teams, the lack of vetting and research was already destroying the internet via social media, but now it seems it has seeped its way  into worlds where background checks are crucial for integrity purposes.

King Solomon once said: "there is nothing new under the sun." 

No truer words have been spoken when it comes to entertainment, particularly in the area of music. 
At this point in time, no music is actually created (if you are judging by the dictionary definition of "create"), but rather it is merely invented. As a music creator (Lol! See what we did there), one should not feel some type of way when borrowing sounds or styles from your musical predecessors. 
But where do we draw the line between influence and mimicry?  Between following a blueprint and copying the plans.

You've heard it said a million times.  "Nothing happens overnight".  Or, "overnight success takes ten years to achieve". 

But what if you  really could have success overnight?  What if what we are looking for isn't so much instant success, but instant goal achievement. 
You see, once you realize that the success you're defining by reaching your goal is really the sum total of an accumulation of many successes, you can then see that overnight success IS possible.  From making a quality decision to getting up and working on your goal to the first little accomplishment, all qualify as successes. 

And they can indeed happen overnight.

From writer's block to career dissatisfaction to the feeling of having no purpose, the common cause for each of these conundrums is often the lack of a spark.  An inspiration. 

Amazingly enough, we often spend so much time in search of this inspiration when we fail to realize that there is inspiration all around us happening every minute of every day.  We only have to look and insert ourselves into the life that's happening all round us. From the leaf falling acrobatically from a tree, to the homeless person on the street and everything in between.

You only get one chance to make a first impression. It only takes a person 7-10 seconds for form an initial evaluation or perception of you.  Everything you do from that point on is either substantiating or disproving that perception.

An oak tree started as an acorn.
Google, Amazon and Apple started in garages.
J.K. Rowling was a single mother on welfare.
Sean "Diddy" Combs started as an intern.
And so on, and so on....

Stop griping about your small beginning. What makes you so special that you should "skip the line" and circumvent the process?
