I, like many people, sometimes forget how blessed I am in so many ways.  One of the many blessings in my life is that I have a true passion for fashion and style.  On my absolute worst days I find comfort in perusing style blogs, and I feel like all is right in the world. Seeing these impeccably dressed women serves as a reminder to me of what I’m working towards.  I look at my goals and I get a second wind from seeing fashion at its best, and knowing that I am so close to being a part of that.  What I want for my career is actually quite simple.  I will write and talk about fashion and style all over the world, cultivating relationships with my audience, and I will be dressed to the nines while doing so.  I have to take ownership of those goals and make them happen.  I came across an interview Beyonce did a long time ago and they asked her what she’s learned throughout her life.  One of her answers really resonated with me and it’s something I’ve kept with me since then.  She said (not verbatim) that she’s learned that it’s nobody’s responsibility to take care of her except her.  Every time I feel like the universe is conspiring against me I remember that, and I look at these blogs, I write, and I pick myself up and go at it again.
