Are You An Overthinker?
Hey what’s up everybody!! Today I wanted to talk to anyone who is an overthinker cuz I am as well. When we have a goal and think of ways where we can accomplish that goal, the longer we wait on taking action, the more our brains will start to overthink it. Really the only way to stop it is to take action as soon as possible. The sooner the better. Hope you all enjoy today’s video!! 😁🙌
Attitude of Gratitude
Today I wanted to talk about gratitude. Reminding yourself daily of what you have in your life that you are grateful can help you mentally and can shift your energy to attracting more positive things into your life. This doesn’t mean that you stop going after your goals, this just means to be grateful for what you have while go after the things that you want. Hope you all enjoy today’s video!! 😁🙌
Don’t Give Up On Your Dreams But….
Creating Good Habits
Fear: The Stories In Our Head
Forget What They Say
Today I wanted to talk about listening to your heart than to what other people think. Throughout your life some people, even the ones you love, will give you their opinions on how you should live your life. The main thing is that you in your heart know its right for you and you ain’t hurting anybody. This can be tough but as long as you know it’s right for you, don’t let anybody tell you otherwise. I hope you all enjoy today’s video!! 😁🙌
People Who Succeeded Because They Never Gave Up
The saying “Never Give Up” may be a little cliched but its so true and its a great reminder. The odds may not be great to achieve some of our goals but giving up makes the small percentage to 0% lol. So I wanted to share 5 stories of people who achieved their dreams when things didn’t look so good and when felt like giving up, they still pushed on.
1. John Krasinski John Krasinski is best known for his role as Jim Halpert in the office was a struggling working actor before he got his iconic role. He moved to New York to pursue acting and he says he was very lucky cuz his Mom was so supportive she told him that if it doesn’t work in 2 and a half to 3 years that he would pull himself out cuz she wasn’t going to do do it. Now 2 and a half years later of getting small roles while having to work his job as a waiter, he decided that maybe acting wasn’t for him so he called his Mom and asking her if she can pick him up and she told him it was September and to wait it out till the end of the year, 3 weeks later he was casted as Jim in the hit comedy series The Office
2. Stephen King Stephen King is one of the most famous authors in the world mostly known for writing horror books. King was a high school English teacher when he started writing and he was starting writing a book but threw it away because he felt it wasn’t good enough and it wouldn’t sell. Luckily his wife saw the pages in the trash and told him that she was interested and wanted to know how it ended but even after King started to write and finish the book, nobody wanted to publish it. It was rejected 30 times before being accepted. That book was Carrie and ended up being one of the most successful books of all time, selling over 350 Million Copies and started Stephen Kings career of being one of the most successful authors in the world.
3. Matt Leblanc Matt Leblanc mostly known as the lovable Joey Tribbiani in Friends was broke before landing the role, in fact he only $11. He says that one time he was going to get new headshot and the photographer was telling him that one tooth was longer than the rest and to get that filed. He contacts a dentist and finds out that its $80 to get it done and being very tight money he couldn’t afford that so he goes to a local drug store and buys something to do it himself. Before Friends he was much like his character Joey, a struggling actor who gets a role every now and then until landing his role in Friends.
4. Sylvester Stallone This is a classic story that I love hearing about I think its incredible. Back before Stallone was a famous actor, he wrote this script for Rocky and when talking with other studios to get this film made, they all wanted a big named A-list actor to do it but Stallone was very stern about him playing Rocky. Even though he needed the money, he still refused to sell the script without having the studio agree him to play as Rocky. It got so bad that he had to do the unthinkable for any dog lover, he had to sell his dog just so he and his wife could afford to buy food for the both of them. So he eventually got a studio to agree to have him play Rocky, he now has some money so he went back to the guy he sold the dog to and he wouldn’t give him back because he now has an attachment to the dog. After he negotiated with him, he made an agreement with the guy to put him in Rockh for his dog back.
5. Dave Bautista Before acting, David Bautista was one of the top wrestlers for the WWE and when he decided to leave the WWE and move onto acting. Transitioning from wrestling to acting even after The Rock’s success wasn’t easy, he said that he was broke and sold and lost almost everything and had trouble with the IRS. He could have gone back to the WWE but he wanted to move on in his life. After 3 years of leaving, he got the role of Drax in Guardians of the Galaxy and that changed his life forever.
And hearing this story was actually what gave me the idea for today’s video.It goes to show that there are no overnight successes and it may seem easy on the outside but there is a struggle and sometimes everyone feels like quitting but if you keep the faith and push on, you’ll see that everything happens for a reason and you will end up being where you are supposed to be. You always have a chance to live out your dream and do what you’ve always wanted to do, the only thing that will kill that chance is giving up

Failure To Success
Failure To Success
One thing that has always inspired me is seeing people overcome failures and also people who overcame failure in front everyone else. Today I wanted to gather a list of successful people who publicly failed and some embarrassed themselves on live TV but overcame it all.
- The Rock The Rock always wanted to be a football player in the NFL. He dreamed of getting drafted and buying his parents a house and when that didn’t happen he decided to play for the Canadian football league in hoping a NFL team will see him and sign him to a contract. Shortly after arriving in Canada, he was cut and his dreams were shattered and that’s when he decided to train for the WWE and he is now one of the most successful actors in Hollywood.
I talk about this one all the time because I love and it reminds me that sometimes not getting what you want could be the best thing to ever happen to you - Tom Landry Tom Landry was coach in the NFL for the Dallas Cowboys and is a Hall of Fame Coach but it didn’t start that way in fact far from it. His first year as head coach which was also the Dallas Cowboys first year, they went 0-11-1 which means 0 wins, 11 loses, and 1 tie. It took him 6 years to get the Cowboys in the playoffs. In the end Tom Landry took the Cowboys to the playoffs 18 times and Coached them to 2 Superbowl wins
- Lisa Kudrow Lisa Kudrow who everyone knows as the crazy but loveable Pheobe Buffay from Friends but did you know she was originally casted as Roz Doyle in Fraiser? She started filming the Pilot in that show but the Producers thought she wasn’t right for the part and lacked chemistry with the rest of the cast members so they fired her. Of course things ended working out for her as she was casted as Pheobe a few months later
- Lady Gaga Lady Gaga is one of the top selling singers in the world and in 2006 she originally was signed by Def Jam Records and of course she thought she finally made it and go her big break but unfortunately a couple months later LA Reid one of the Execs at the time wasn’t satisfied with her demo and released her. LA Reid now calls this decision the worst thing he has ever done in his career
- The Miz The Miz real name Mike Mizanin, he was on the MTV Reality Show The Real World on that show he a persona he named The Miz where he would say that he was going to be WWE Champion one day and that was no joke, his dream was to wrestle for the WWE. He finally got his opportunity to be on WWE Television and when he did, he actually messed it up on live TV. Lucky for him the WWE gave him another shot and he took full advantage over it. He has been with the WWE since 2006 and has been WWE Champion twice.
