I think everyone in the world is born with potential. Everyone comes with capabilities, attributes and a genetic code that makes each person unique. This unique code coupled with our environment and influences can result in an individual following the mold or the accepted path of the world or an individual deciding that they are going to look more deeply into themselves and discover their potential. The path to minding yourself and taking a closer look into your inner workings is a personal journey that can sometimes make you feel alone. However, only the brave and the successful can speak to taking this journey to stand up and stand out. It is definitely not an easy thing to stand out and it can often be scary especially if you see others following the mold.

I think the catalyst to a motivated mind is when you have something or someone to work towards. Who or what is your catalyst? Or you may fall into the category of an individual who is unmotivated and does not see potential in their future. How do you find your catalyst? The key is definitely to look into your self. Your environment and your influences may guide you into the believing that you have no potential but you can fight these influences simply by looking at your strengths, discovering how to maximize your strengths and filling your mind with motivational content which may include podcasts, YouTube channels, blog sites, or people you see that inspire you to be great.

If you have looked into yourself, found your catalyst, and have found your motivational tools then you are definitely on a positive path to success. Success will not come easy and success comes with hard work and sacrifice. What are you willing to let go and sacrifice in order to ensure your future? It could be the negative people in your life or the people holding you back from realizing your potential. It could also be yourself and bad habits. How are you organizing and managing your time and your life to reach your goals? All of these questions are a part of the journey towards self-discovery and learning your place in the world. Self-discovery is definitely a major part of the journey of an entrepreneur. I call myself an entrepreneur because I am still going through this journey and by putting positive energy into the world and speaking things into existence there will always be a positive return effect that will be my stamp on the world.

Summer is  a fun time for music and June and July really brought the summer heat. A highlight and breakout artist is these months  is definitely SZA. SZA who is also a fellow Jersey girl, dropped her album CTRL off of Top Dawg Entertainment. T.D.E positions and pushes their artists to maintain their creative edge and SZA did not disappoint. CTRL really showed that SZA is not just here to stay with her unique voice but also with her songwriting. SZA keeps it real by giving you the perspective and position you have always either been curious about or wanted represented. Her honesty is what makes this project a classic. Other notable drops were Bryson Tiller’s True To Self, Partynextdoors’s Colour’s 2 EP, and H.E.R’s Volume 2.
