Namaste!! ( means welcome)
... So I was on the phone right, and you know I'm just talkin, chit-chattin if you will and me and this person got on the subject of school and future careers; and I was like, there's a lot of things that I want to do. So, she was like, well what are they. I was stuck, then it hit me... I've never really talked out loud about all the things in my head that I want to do with my life. These things are still fairly new, but nonetheless I've never talked about them. So when she asked me that, I found myself not really being able to explain what it was. I mean sure, it makes total sense in my head, but when I said it out loud it was as if I wasn't confident in it or maybe even felt foolish. Like a little kid wanting to be a superhero, or an astronaut, or policeman... As if my dreams are too big!! So I've decided to take the first step and just get them all out of me. Not quite out loud, but out there in some form, I mean as I've already learned, my words can be very powerful... So here goes...
Well, let's start way back in High School,
I was destined to be an NBA star... :) just one problem, I was in the marching band throughout highschool, got to college, was like ooo i'll walk on. Took one look at the team, and headed for the library.... lol Hey, I could still pursue it, but prob very unlikely.... ok that's off my chest, lol
Nowadays, I don't feel like the things that pop into my head are my thoughts alone... I feel like there's someone telling me these things and ok let's back up, I feel like God is telling me all the things he wants me to do with my life, and basically it's up to me whether they get done or not...
Sounds weird? yes, no, maybe? Are u currently following your dreams? If so, did you hear the same voice? Let me know, cuz i'm tryin to figure this one out, :)
So what are they?
Well one day, I was sittin around thinkin and stuff and this idea for a movie hit me!! Actually I take that back I was in the shower. I've only told 1 maybe 2 ppl out this idea, lol.... it's just that good, to me anywayz... So i'm like, I need to write a screenplay. I think i missed my big shot to, cuz the writers going on strike probably was my ticket to success, but hey I didn't follow that thought right away... I'm still writing, but some of my new experiences have kind of altered the story... I've been doing alot of research and just reading literature on screenplays, how they're written and the whole hollywood process in general. I'll get her done though... plus another idea hit me not too long ago, I can't remember it though lol, I think I might end up as a writer..
So that was that, so now, same kind of situation, i'm just chillin, sittin around, and it hit me.... I want to start a corporation. Basically a company that has many different lines of businesses under it. So i'll use a current one out there as an example, hmm, Walt Disney world... perfect example, Fortune 500 company... many different lines of business... ABC, ESPN, Resort, theme parks, merchandise... lot's of companies u wouldn't even have thought, they're all run individually, but still owned by Disney... something similiar, Who knows, maybe it'll get to Disney status! prob after i'm gone...
So this next one actually happen earlier today while I was at work.... 2 of em actually...
I was watchin BET, well it was on in the break room... and 106 & Park was on, So I was thinkin about how and why I do not consider myself a viewer of this network... and it hit me, I should start my own network... haven't picked out a name, but I'm thinkin a truly Black station, one that displays Blacks in a positive image and not full of stereotypes, and also one that informs... If someone wants to steal this idea Be My Guest!! I mean hey, maybe some of these thing hit me just because God knows i'm not afraid to put it out there! But yea, momma always told me, if ya want something done right, ya gotta do it yourself...
and the second one that hit me was not too long after. I was thinking about a prior blog i'd written about reading and the black culture, and I thought to myself, hmm... maybe I should open up my own school... but then I thought, nah that can be for later when i'm in my 50's or somethin like that... lol
But as u can see, my dreams are REALLY big... but in my mind they seem inevitable... it's something I feel in my heart I can accomplish and through God's grace... it WILL be done.... I've always had the Do it big mentality and my Dreams are no different, I'm the type of person that wants to own a chain of stores rather than just a store in a chain....
but that's just me.... What are you're Dreams?
