 stateside, I was wrapped up in the constant prattle of opinions on how my life was supposed to look
then 1 day, I just started writing, blogging, creating dream boards of what I wanted my life to feel like I stopped reading threads on social media, stopped worrying abt what everyone else was doing & immediately turned off talkshows, panels, articles that began w/stats abt what my-life was supposed to look like I was so busy trying to engage, complain or prove the world wrong, that I’d stopped listening to the most important voice: my own I learned how to turn off the noise & focus on those folks lending support & ways to make my life easier. once i blocked everyone who wasn’t doing that, my life filled w/people trying to find ways to support me w/out me asking None of that would have happened if I had not created a vision of the life I wanted. then universe had a blueprint & everyone, even strangers got onboard to make it happen u can’t get the life u want if u don’t focus on what that’s supposed to look like for u — specifically when I ask clients what they want; it’s often vague If U can’t see it U can’t create it Start researching livestyles, places, interesting job ideas that uv never contemplated everybody wants to be a star, no one can ever tell me what that looks like, not in detail, that tells me that u haven’t really thought abt what u want U haven’t investigated all the possibilities I can’t remember the last time an artist was able to tell me what kind of tv show, role, writing they wanted to be apart of...they just wanted to blow up. If u don’t have a clear picture, u have no roadmap of how to get there Once I had a specific picture i wrote it down, attached photos & started asking friends, acquaintances online how to get it W/ 6 months, the apt, the house, the business, the clients, the worthy men showed up w/out me doing a damn thing outside of having a clear vision & having done a hell of a lot of therapy to learn how to get out of my own way so I would be ready to receive & sustain the life, the home, the career, the relationships I dreamed abt so here i am building stone gardens on the terrace of my Moroccan Riad designed by Atyq Outmane
