The Longer You Are Here.................

Within the decades and years, everyone is either about to or has dealt with people will passing away. It brings the question of "Do I really want this" as in the experience it provides or value? What matters is you gain a lifetime of experiences you can hold within to cherish.

Recently, I was looking through my grandpa's old pictures from back in high school. As you picture yourself being in his shoes and living the life he did growing up, It is a totally different time. Back then they didn't have tv, electricity, computers, cell phones, internet, indoor plumming, refrigeration. It is awazing in examining a person's life as your own in viewing what they have experienced over 90 years. Another situation, in which is great and sad at the same time is outliving all of the family and friends you knew growing up. My grandparents have outlived so many people and I can see why they have the point of view they do.

If you have made mistakes in which we all have. Take the time to make a goal and a vow to fix the life you have while you have the opportunity. You never know when your last day will be. Treat everyone with respect. Create a rapport with as many as you can. The world is small and it all comes back around. I'd like to hear your story and point of view.

The Disbelief Of Others

It is easier to disbelieve everything then to prove it. Putting in the time and effort, others only what you have done in front of their eyes. No matter how much work and effort you have put in, other people including your family wont get it. They haven't ever been where you are at, nor put in the work you have. Having the courage to believe in yourself is all you need.

The main fact is, develop your mission to serve your right target audience and talk to your right clients.Those are the ones you matter the most. The people who tell you, this or that will never happen is showing their personal views, not reality.Those who talk down to you are normally the ones who are you not your clients and aren't going to pay your bills with nor give the long lasting support you need to grow your business. You mission is where it all starts from. It is who you are.

Stolen From/Learning Experience

Years ago my art was stolen from 1993 to 2004 period of time. At first I wasn’t happy about it and the same time, glad it happen at the certain time. This art was from when I was using it for therapy. A lot of negative and other emotion experiences. Then I thougt to myself, I get a chase to have a clearn slate in starting from scratch. I wouldn’t have the reminders of the past.

In starting with a new clean slate, I have room to work on and the opportunities to open the empathic abilities to help others. This event was one of the defining moments in my life. It brings the mindset of breaking away from being held back creatively, and many others ways.

Is there a defining moment in your life you would like to share? I’d like to hear your story.

Have A Valid Point

I care for my family however they don’t understand when I am working, they competely ignore. They don’t understand nor really care I need complete focus, they disregard everything. One of them has a temper and likes to argue over the smallest of things. This person did go to anger management yet hasn’t owned up to their own responses and wants to point the finger at everyone else. If she doesn’t take ownership over her life she will have to find out the hard way.

If you argue and fight over the smallest of things then there must be a larger issue looking in the mirror. It has nothing to do with winning the argue. Ask yourself why am I arguing in the first place? Yes we all have times of when we want to do certain things in the moment, however weighing in on it is better worth it to know the aftermath.

I started baking recently................

Many years ago, I used to bake a lot more. I was looking at the box mixes and didn’t like all the extra ingredients. By choosing better ingredients the final result is what you are looking for. The first batch turned out good in a smaller quantity. The second batch was much larger. It was ok however I am making this for others so I know they will want it sweeter and softer.

Experimenting at first is more important to improve before bring it out for others to try. I want to offer my best since I choose to bring this perception to others who encounter myself and what I am offering. After all, this is piece of who I am beyond just the food. The joy and pleasure to offer is here when I bring it on the final mastering. Until then I will continue to work on it.

Offer your best in honest upfront expression.

Is that a cucumber?

One time, I was at a show. This lady come up to me and said is this a cucumber? I thought it was funny. I said, Is it on fire cucumber? I was joking. She could tell I wasn’t serious. Then I could tell she was serious. She then said. This work reminds me of my most favorite boss she ever had. He would always eat big salads. The piece reminds her of the best time of her life around her best boss she ever had.

From this, I started thinking, What can I do for others in helping to preserve a symbol of their loved one in art? We all want to keep the best times and a lifetime of memories in our mind. It is invaluable through the experiences we enjoy in the moment. That time we will never get back and at the same time. We love our loved ones we have lost. I can identify with this all too much. I miss many people who have passed away. This is a part of why I create art. Helping others to heal and process the loss to work through emotional,psychological barriers we have to evolve through. Seeing funerals, it brings a perspective in the value of time and relationships.

The Grass May Seem Greener On The Other Side

In learning many new leasons, others may think the grass is greener on the other side. Such as a marriage, in where the man is great to his wife. If the wife is bored of the relationship yet the man provides so much by working day and night. The whole spectacle may seem dreadful because the wife never sees her husband. Yet, she doesn’t understand how much time and work is going into the final result. At a certain point, the wife out of no where wants a divorce despite the husband working so much for her. After the separation, and divorce, the woman still isn’t happy and realizes the man she married has moved on. Meanwhile she misses the life she had. Sometimes we may think life is greater on the outside and when we get there we wish we had what was left behind.

This whole perception is more then just marriage. It can apply to a job, business parners, relationships, vehicles, health, time spent, and so many more choices. Search for others who have been in your situation, understand what they chose to do, and make your own best decisions. This way you will be happier in making the right choice instead of regret years from now.

Always In A Rush

Today, I drove into a gas station. There were so many vehicles lined up, people were honking and were blocking others from parking including myself. The time of when you are executing is key. Start earlier and you will have ahead start. If you procrastinate you will regret it and be waiting in long lines meanwhile attempting to get to where you are needing to be. Procrastination will always slow down where you are wanting to be.

.We all are guilty of procrastination no matter where you are from. At times you brain needs to unload other things and refuel in what is important since it is so easy to get distracted with all of this technology and to do lists. Why not single out the things in which matter the most to you. Ask the question, does this go toward the direction you are focused on arriving at?

Fill In The Gap For Your Clients

I recently was in a situation with my vehicle. I purchased the wrong parts for my vehicle and spent four hours on it to attempt in fixing it. Then, realized the parts I had purchased were the wrong ones. The next day, I called around to find a place to get my vehicle in. The majority couldn't get me in until next week. You never know if this could get you stranded. I acted fast and found a place to have my vehicle fixed. As soon as I established an appointment, the stress level diminshed a lot.

What this all boils down to is observe your clientsand understand they need assistsance.Filling in the gap is where you will shine.Relieving stress with your clients is a positive and one less thing to stress about. The question is, How can you fill in the gap where your clients? This applies to all industry to every business from person to person.

Reward vs Risk

In pursue, of doing what you are projected to do, there is always a reward vs risk. Along the way, we make mistakes. You want others to take you seriously instead of putting you on a lower level. What counts is you taking yourself seriously with action and words to back it up. Putting in the long hours, and leverage along with others is where it matters in creating the meaning you are seeking

.Normally those who put you in a small box, perceive their own self in this way. Their perception has nothing to do with you. Other relationships will be beneficial and others are limiting. Be careful who you allow in your life. Family you inherit, friends you can choose. The perception of others is their personal choice in accepting reality as they choose. You will have to seek those who are like minded and supporting each other to thrive.
