I use to think people had it figured out. All the people I looked up to on Instagram, YouTube, all the hours just waiting to do something because I felt inadequate (Imposter Syndrome can be a doozy). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

All to find out, NOKWTFGO. There are no guarantees or undeniable formulas. There are only best practices and strategies. One key to a good strategy is being able to adapt. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

So listen to your gut, follow your dream, your heart, or whatever. Invest in yourself and go for what you want. Stay down until you come up. 🏁

As a graduate of Georgia State University, this place is near and dear to my heart. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Connect Lounge is where it really went down man. It was always so dark and smoky when I went but it was an amazing time. It was also where I met, at the time, who I thought would be the love of my life 😢⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

When you build the courage to go talk to someone and it works out, what a feeling. I have to call some of my friends from GSU to see if they remember what days this was really popping. But yeah, Connect Lounge - you kids may never know

Often times when I'm designing a logo or website, I have to circle back to this acronym.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Keep. It. Simple. Stupid.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

It's so grounding. A lot of us have an issue with overthinking. You look at something long enough you will find flaws. You think about something long enough, you will find doubt and all these many possibilities that don't even exist.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I remember in my wee years, when someone I was dating didn't text me back for hours...after 8 PM. Whewwwwww my mind would create, at minimum, 5 scenarios where they are out partaking in scandalous behavior 😂😂😂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The same unfavorable scenarios I created for my partner (situationship or entanglement) is the same ones we create for our businesses and brands. You don't act because success is guaranteed, you feel like you need this, you need that, you need x, you need y, before you can do anything. You want to be overly prepared. Ready for whatever.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Next time, just catch yourself. Remember to k.i.s.s and push through. Do whatever is actually in front of you or the next step. Start there instead of all the worrying.
