So recently I have decided to start going out more so I can network and make bigger moves, and so I joined some new groups on MeetUp.Com to find out what events were going on in my area. Well... this week there was a YouTube event and I decided to go and I had so much fun! I even was able to get info for a second music event as well for the same week. Recently it has been very difficult for me to focus on my goals because so many things are going on in my mind. I miss my Mom, and my family, and most of all I miss having friends to go out with. Even though I'm originally from LA all my best friends are on the East Coast. I have been trying to meet some cool people out in Cali but it just hasn't been the same. I always feel however there is a solution to every problem so I took some time to look within and ask myself what could I do to make things better, and the answer I came up with is, JUST TRY HARDER! LOL
When you move around a lot growing up its hard to form long lasting relationships because you never have any stability. I always moved back and forth from New York to California throughout my adolescent years so my friends are all spread out and that's really frustrating, but such is life. If you want something to change you have to put forth the effort and make it happen so here I am making it Happen! I have several other networking events to attend this week, and I feel good about my progress. As long as you keep moving forward you can Never Fail!
Until Next Time....
This past weekend I had planned to film Part 2 of my Project for "Luv On Blast" in Baltimore, MD. “Luv On Blast TV” is another section of my Relationship/Music venture. Well unfortunately a director that I found online turned out to be extremely unreliable and unprofessional, so I had to continue the project on my own. I have a camcorder but it was not equipped to do interviews so I just did the best I could. I drove the hour + drive on my own with faith by my side, and I handed out flyers, and networked with people. I was determined not to let my trip go to waste!
After I completed my networking, I researched different options to assist me in completing the interviews on my own. I found out that I needed a “Hot Shoe” attachment for my camcorder in order to attach the external microphone. I also priced Tripods for my camcorder as well, and I found out that everything I needed was relatively inexpensive.
Although it would be helpful to have someone there to lend a hand with the camcorder I can’t afford to wait around for anyone to push my dream!
My point in saying all this is….. When you have a Project that you feel Passionately about as I do with mine you cant wait around for a Team of People to work with you, you have to go out and make things Happen, and after that people will be Running Behind You to be a Part of What you have Started! I have learned to be A Hustler. Nothing in my life was ever given to me. I really believe my current project can become BIG, and therefore I have to push on without anyone’s help. I have learned so much through this lesson. I can now record my own videos, transfer the footage, edit them, and convert them on my own! Its time to make moves, and I’m up for the Challenge!
FRUSTRATION CAN BE GOOD SOMETIMES BECAUSE IT PUSHES YOU FARTHER THAN YOU EVER THOUGHT YOU COULD GO!!!
See You All Soon on TV!!!
